but ya....horrible figs....i returned it today and got my money back.


You know what the two packs saving grace was, that little black tab that spun primes upper torso like a hellicoptor. If you pull it out instead of pushing it in, it locks the upper half in place, making the figure a thousand times better. Megatron has his flaws, but if you just keep the arm straight it looks fine to me. Because Maywire (Azura now) told me about the tab, he's honestly one of my favorite classics.

Trust me, it makes a world of difference.

Thanks, mate! I can't provide any photos, though, because I can't bring myself to buy them.

EDIT:
TheTouch has just notified me that the Brossard TRU has Titanium Soundwave.

What?! Your truck was stolen? I hope you'll get it back (and everything in it) as soon as possible.

My friend and I found it shortly after we noticed it was missing. We found it crashed into a hydro pole, and it was missing some things from it. My camera, CDs, cell phone charger... a few other smaller things. It's not so much that someone stole my stuff, it's that it was taken from a party that housed all long time friends. Everyone there has known each other since at least high school, if not longer. The keys were taken by the host upon arrival and stored in his room. The painfully ironic thing is that the host of the party is a cop! Someone stole my keys from his locked room, and took my fourty thousand dollor truck for a drunken back road adventure and made a ten point landing in a snow filled ditch between a hydro pole and a bell communications box.

The only good thing to come of this, if you can even call it that, is that my friends wants to pay for all the damages to my truck because it was stolen from his house. I told him no, but he refused. I'm a very stubborn person with things like that, especially when it wasn't his fault at all. But he played the "on my mothers grave" card so I had to accept. Things like that make me glad I have noble friends left. He doesn't know it yet, but I'm trying to get some front row tickets to Wrestlemania for us. If he's stepping up to the plate, I feel that I should do the same.

Silver Snail has new 6"ers! I picked up Fallen, RID Prime, WW Starscream and I passed on Cheetor, but they are there in the US packaging. I think they were around 28 bucks, if memory serves me correctly. Anywho, there out therem, so go get em!

I was at Yonge/Eglinton TRU today and picked up a Classics Jetfire. There was one left. It is on the top shelf in the Transformers section.

Fun fact about Classics Skyfire - try giving him Vector Prime's missile! He'll be able to shoot VP's missile further than and faster than his own. Aww yeah.

I went into my local TRU yesterday (Langley) with the SKU's for Jetfire, Ramjet and Cliffjumper. They told me that the new wave had arrived but was still in the warehouse awaiting unpacking. Some good news for British Columbians as it looks like the newest classics will hit shelves anyday now!

Legends Action Figures has Classics Cliffjumper, but they sold out on Ramjet.

They also have a sale on Basic Titaniums, 2 for $10.

I tapped out and bought 6" Cheetor from the Snail. This is the first Titanium I'm overall not pleased with. His cat tail dangles down between his legs in bot' mode and is the first 6"er to not have wrist articulation. the head sculpt is nice I suppose, but not really it's saving grace. If your a fan of BM then I would recommend it, but if not, wait until it's on sale (or don't get it at all)

Last time I saw them must have been during Cybertron's run, before Soundwave and Uber Scattershot came out. Once they sold, I haven't seen them since they got restocked this week.

I found some new Titaniums at TRU yesterday. Rodimus Prime, WW Starscream, and RiD Prime. Only picked up Rodimus Prime. Starscream is hideous. And Prime, while not ugly, I just can't get him if there is no Ultra Magnus for him to combine with. I do like how they all come in a red box similar to the Classics.

I don't have a TRU that I'm close to anymore, so I haven't seen them yet.

Can you post some pics of the new boxes?

BTW, RID Prime is a great fig, but I agree. They should have nixed the WW Magnus and made RID Magnus that was more armor then anything. I also have WW Screamer and the colors are way off. Especially in jet mode. there's a big red line through the middle of the cockpit because of a flaw in the colorscheme. Booooooooooooo

I saw RID Prime and WW Starscream at the Barrie Ontario TRU. These are the 6" Titanium toys. There were also Alts there, Prime, Camshaft, Jazz and others.

There's two 6" Titanium Starscreams at Brampton TRU, 1 at Hurontario TRU... No other new ones, though... (I still need 6" Soundwave, Rodiums and RID Prime)...

Here are some picks of the packaging, it's a simple red box.

I'm fairly certain the inside of the packaging is different for each figure. The inside was different for the first round of figures in the Megs packaging right?

Ordered a classic Jetfire from ToysRus.ca this weekend - but right after I went to post my find here, it disappeared from the site. I still have a "Voyager Classics Jetfire" order placed through them, with confirmation email, but I have no idea why it's no longer on the site. Usually they just mark it "out of stock."
