ahh swatch watches, nothing reminds me of the 80's more than swatch watches and Blades.

I currently have 52 Swatches but nothing newer than '98 or so. I was obcessed for a long time. I still love them & I'm always keeping an eye on their newer stuff too just in case i win the lotto

Yeah - I'm more focused now on buying O gear and trying not to buy more than 1 swatch a year. But collecting Swatches was so much cheaper than buying Oakley (1 timebomb = 7 Irony Chronos)

Hmm Swatches...back in the 80´s I wanted to get myself enough Swatches to hook them together as a belt. Never got round getting the last 3 or so. Somewhere in one of the many drawers in my house they must all be collecting dust now.

Joel - sure ironys scratch real easy (it doesnt help that the surface of the watch crystal is raised) but you can use Polywatch to remove any scratches from the acrylic crystal. But again these watches weren't that expensive enough that I really minded beating them up...

Edwin - can't say I was ever into the 80s classic swatch designs - only became interested when they started their irony chrono range in 1996. You should consider selling some or all of your collection if its just sitting around - I'm going to eBay at least 2 of my watches....

cant believe that i forgot this but i also collect and paint games workshop LOTR models... yeah i know i know... but hey im one cool ass nerd... hell im not even a nerd i just have wird hobbies

an expensive hobbie too.

I might do that, JimBob, thanks! That is, if I can find the right drawer.

What might be a fair price to ask, any idea?

Edwin - I'm not into the classic (plastic case) swatches so I really would have any idea - but I guess eBay would be the place I look at to determine what the going rate is.....

I have some newer gen Transformers and also the newer gen SIGMA6 G.I.JOE : Snakeeyes and Stormshadow. Some pix below:

The leader: sealed in box 20th anniversay edition


Honda 2000 and Jeep Wrangler


Mazda RX8 and the new Ford Mustang GT


Chevy Corvette, Dodge Viper and untransformed Viper


Subaru and coming soon: Acura RSX and Scion

Fackin' hell, those are awesome Transformers

Cal, have you seen Shockwave as a dark blue Mazda? Still has the laser hand though even if he's not a giant laser gun. And Prime is coming as a Dodge Ram. And open your Prime already man. He's too cool to keep locked up.



I also saw the US editions have new packaging now as well. I still need to find Hound (or Swindle) and maybe Grimlock.

my my , he's quite the agressor there with the finger

It's all I had available.

DUDE THAT IS AWESOME!!!! I ALMOST FELL OVER WHEN I SAW THAT

LOL

Phil that pic is awesome! I'm using it on my msn messenger now. Royalty payments will be made bi-monthly.

I used to love my transformers (got 50 somthing 1 gen played with) but now i collect live corals.

do they eat anything ?

never swa a life stone eat anything

they are photosynthetic so i guess that you could say they eat sunlight and CO2. They also use a small amount of metals: Calcium, Strontium, Manganese, to build their skeletons.

However some of them can be predatory and are able to sting and kill pin head sized shrimps

Here's my other GI JOE Ninja collection - Sigma 6 : Snake Eyes vs Storm Shadow


the battle begins:


this one will stay sealed

suped-up Snake Eye w/ armour:

Cal, I saw Skids (Scion xB) and Prowl (RSX) this past week. They're nice. And bigbadtoystore.com is advertising the Prime Dodge Ram for sale already, both Alternator and Binaltech.

Thanks Phil, I just bought Skids. Did you need me to help you search for some other ones. I am having difficulty finding Prowl since I didnt want to pay the ridiculous Ebay prices

I will definitely get the Prime/ Dodge Ram

So can you guys tell me if the original Wheeljack ever got reissued? I tried looking on some TF sites but it gets too confusing with all the different lines.

If Wheeljack is released as one of those (the Alternators) I'll let you know. I think they're done with the re-issues from the original molds for now.
