How to prevent SPAM
Email, love them… hate them or loving them and hating them.
For most users email will means business deal, appointment, opportunity or simply a hello.
Unfortunately, as long as you are an email user, you will not be able to prevent SPAM.
That’s right no matter how expensive, how sophisticated Anti-SPAM countermeasure which you has taken there is no way to prevent spam.
SPAM can only be reduced but not prevented.
The good news is, you need not to be a nuclear scientist to combat spam. User, which is us needs to follow this few simple steps :
1. Ty not to expose your email in internet, e.g. webpage, forums, contact form.
2. Do not provide/write your email in query forms in exchange for freebies.
3. Use common sense, think like spammer e.g. ways to harvest emails or obtain email either ethical or unethical way.
The reason for step 1, spammers can use programs/bots to harvest email addresses from webpage, forums, contact us form.
The reason for step 2, unethical person or some company makes money by providing biodatas in electronic as well as paper forms.
Lastly, use common sense, example do not betray your self with a cheap freebie. Nothing is free in the world 😛

How to produce detailed macro shot photo.
To create a macro shot, first a camera which is capable of taking close up object is needed.
The basic requirement for camera for macro shot :
1. Macro lens.
2. Photo sensitivity of ISO 100 or ISO 80
3. Timer
4. Tripod
From my understanding, the less sensitive or lower ISO, the easier to produce detailed shots. Unfortunately, less sensitive, longer exposure time needed. Hence, macro shots is not suitable for casual photo graphing a.k.a. a tripod is needed. Else ghostly images will be produced. Timer is needed to avoid shaking the camera during the shot that may cause ghostly images.
Samples :
T.H.S.-02 : G1 Convoy part 4
Transformation :
Transformation from robot mode to truck mode is perfect but the proportion of the truck is not good. On top of that it has a lot of ugly gaps. The ugly truck mode will encourage THS02 owners to refrain from transforming into the truck mode.
The only fun factor for truck mode, is the trailer can be attached to convoy.
The trailer itself can be transformed into cargo box, command center/support weapon platform and maintainance bay for Convoy.
Very bad proportioned
Trailer transformed into the command center or support heavy weapon
Convoy cooling off at repair bay
Summary :
Packs of tonnes of accessories and gimmick. Small and compact but highly pose able. Greatdetails at robot mode. Sadly poorly executed truck mode. On top of that not recommended for toddlers & big hands. Great for collectors which wants to expand Convoy collections.

Convoy in action :
Though Convoy is represented as a less than 15 cm midget, it does not lack of details & articulation. Convoy has 14 points of articulation which make it capable of multiple posing. In term of material used, Convoy contains some diecast in its chest & legs.
Not forgetting, this mini Convoy has the mini Matrix. The matrix is small, but it can be used to pose Convoy releasing the Matrix energy.

T.H.S.-02 : G1 Convoy part 1
Introduction :
Convoy, the first Cybertrons commander introduced in Transformers. A symbol of all good & virtue. Perhaps one of the ageless icon in the Transformers series. Now it is again immortalized in the TakaraTomy toyline THS.
Box art at the front
Yet again, the Japanese toys makers had made Convoy, ultra-small and surprisingly alot of details. This toy comes with alot of accessories & gimmicks. A vast improvement compared to the T.H.S.-01.
