Golf Mill Niles Toys R Us had a new case of 3 Soundwaves and 1 Soundblaster out tonight around 6:30pm. I grabbed a pair of the new Bot Shots 5 packs there earlier and left a pair on the shelves.

Found Beast Hunters Soundwave, Wheeljack and Bumblebee at the Deerfield TRU. Grabbed them! There was one FOC Soundwave there as well as 2 each of the Bot Shots 5 packs.

Found the Beast Hunters BB at the TRU in ROckford today. It was the only BH fig they had left. Love the "dangerous" look to him, but it occurred to me: are these figures what would happen in Transformers had sex with Gundams??

BH Bee is loaded! His big bow-cannon thing is quite impressive, and I like how his extra missiles stay on his back like arrows in a quiver.

Alt mode is very menacing, with the now-door-mounted missiles pointing forward, locked and loaded. Nice that he still comes with his 2 original blasters.

Wheeljack is somewhat less beastly looking, but still cool. His weapon is huge and complex, fun.

I haven't opened mine ... I'm in a major backlog while I've been working on building my eBay store and preparing to launch Seibertron.com's first two official sister sites -- TurtleFans.com and Eternians.com.

I'm on the hunt for BH Lazerback. I think he's the only new figure at retail that I don't have at this point. If anyone sees one at a store, please let me know so I can go get him!

So, I'm living up in Bloomington, MN now. But figured I'd stay connected with my fellow Illinois collector crowd. Just thought I'd "brag" and say I picked up a FE Voyager Prime out here. Been looking for the wave with Kickback, Ultra Magnus, ect but so far nothing as of yet. Have seen alot of FOC voyager Soundwave out here. But meh, I have the deluxe and the gimmick just isn't that appealing.

Hails from Winterfell!

I'll keep an eye out for Laserback for you, I'm itching for FOC Starscream, et al.

And a MOTU sister site? I'm a borderline fan, so if I start collecting MOTU, my wife will want to have words with you...

TMNT sister site is gonna rock, I've been picking up the new Nick 2012 line of toys and they are AWESOME! The price is also a refreshing change. Working on finishing the 1st wave of figures then will have to resort to ebay for a Shell Raiser- have never seen one in retail.

You getting the new stuff Seiber, or are you into the older lines?

I collect the Masters of the Universe Classics line. I don't collect the TMNT or vintage MOTU figures. I'm extremely familiar with both lines and can spot their parts for figures from the vintage lines out of a massive pile of parts.

I've been buying vintage collections of both series and have about 500+ figures from each toy line currently. I clean them all up, put them with their accessories and then list them on eBay. As I'm going through these collections, I take photos of them in order to reuse the photos on their respective future fansites. This was the only way that I could figure out how to feasibly do other fansites. It's a different strategy and business stance than I've taken on Seibertron.com. I'm extremely passionate about Transformers and have been for 28+ years ... I just want to expand the concept so that others can enjoy my vision of future fansites.

The new sites will be hybrid sites that combines online retail with some of the elements all of you have come to expect from a fansite.

One of my ultimate goals is to open a warehouse with a store inside or a brick-and-mortar store here in the northwest suburbs. I've got a ways to go before that can happen but I've been laying down the foundation for it one step at a time over the past few years. Taking it slowly to make sure I've got all of my ducks in a row.
