barricade2218 wrote:How hard do I need to twist your arm..? Honestly, you and I both know there would be people saying it's crazy to spend the kind of money we do on any of our toys. I did think $97 was a bit much, and getting it for $95 shipped and in my hand on the third day, was the clincher. I figured if I had any issues with it, I would be able to exchange for store credit. It is a nice figure, bulky and fun to play with. Good pose-ability and turns into a big freaking arm with a nice sized hand that most legend figures would fit in. I had no quality issues with mine either.

You also know these will not be affordable down the line, so it's more of a commit now or forget it type thing for me. I'm going to sell off some stuff so I can have it, because if nothing else, it's a great investment. Wallet is getting thin with getting all three Conehead Seekers, Thundershred (it just shipped through BBTS today), a MP Rodimus off E-Bay, and Exgraver. With them releasing the pieces as they are, I should be able to swing getting all six figures. It is going to be one big G 1-ish Devastator when finished though. Much better than that Ultimate ROTF Devastator I have, which is a joke.

You can always stop by and check it out if you want to see it before you buy it.

I would like to.

Target GB has Specialist Ratchet(got) and CF BB(pass) if anyone is interested. My MP Rodimus showed up today, AND, I got notice from TFsource that my Coneheads shipped (will be here Wed.) :APPLAUSE:

by **barricade2218** » Tue Aug 16, 2011 8:24 pm

My Thundershred finally got here. Those are some nice figures and much larger than a scout. Near deluxe size I'd say. Chrome blades would of been nice, bet hey, still nice toys and the element symbol can be removed/replaced.

This has been a good, but expensive few weeks, so I'm done with anything major now until Heavylabor due in Sept. Conehead Seekers are due tomorrow. :KREMZEEK:

I had preordered those months ago.

Looking for HA Leadfoot...anybody out here seen anything either online or on the shelf..? >:oP

FFOE- just let me know when you want to stop by, my schedule is pretty flexible.

I really want the Amazon Unicron, to any one willing, I work alot of hours during the beef of the day so I miss out on these hot offers. If you are getting one for yourself or have the opportunity would you please get one for me?

I am totally good for the money and can pay same day. a favor does not go un returned. would even be willing to pay $10 just for the hassle if that makes it easier.

Thanks!

Josh

I snagged the Amazon exclusive 25th anv. Unicron Thurs. Ordered a HA Leadfoot off e-bay for a really decent price ($36), which will save me time and gas trying to find one locally.

Thundershred is bad ass..! Can't wait for the other two to be released. Got my IGear Seekers, had a problem with Elegy but TFsource is replacing it. Quality is just as good as MP SS, and the "no hip kibble" is nice. If you were on the fence on these it's worth it. Attack(not Thrust) is my favorite. I may paint all the faces silver though, I think it would add something and make them more show accurate.

Sorry Josh, didn't see your post til today, otherwise I would of gladly ordered one for you. If they happen to come back into stock I'll pick one up for you if someone else hasn't already.

What was wrong w/ your Elegy? mine had a panel come off....not a biggie, it pegs back on, just needs a dap of super glue. Other than that Im totally loving them! a must have for MP collectors. Sorry Has/Tak, you snooze you lose! :lol:

BTW, barricade check ur PM box

Where the two 'abdomen' pieces are riveted on, one popped off when transforming and would not go back on and stay. In robot mode it was easy enough to disguise, but I figured for the money I wanted it right. They are replacing it and refunding my shipping costs back as well. Other than that, the rest of them are great.

Nothing in my PM's...

by **Tonewaylo** » Sat Aug 27, 2011 11:43 pm

If anyone has seen a HA Roadbuster in the Lawrenceberg area could you PM me where I can look? I've looked everywhere in 30 miles for it..

by **barricade2218** » Wed Aug 31, 2011 1:14 pm

Got HA Leadfoot today. I have an extra one, MISB, if anyone is interested. P.M. me.

by **radioboomer** » Wed Aug 31, 2011 1:32 pm

Barricade, did Target start putting them out? I hit the one by Glenbrook this morning and found nothing.

by **barricade2218** » Wed Aug 31, 2011 2:46 pm

Not to my knowledge. I got them from another source.

by **radioboomer** » Wed Aug 31, 2011 7:08 pm

I was able to snag one a few weeks back but I'm doubling up on my Wreckers as I want to display them in both modes. Not the wisest decision for my wallet I'll tell you that!

by **barricade2218** » Wed Aug 31, 2011 7:25 pm

Did you get notice your Unicron shipped..? Should have mine Fri.

by **radioboomer** » Thu Sep 01, 2011 5:34 am

I think mine is expected then as well. Got my shipping notice earlier in the week. Do you have the Takara version that came out a year or so ago? I'm wondering with the Amazon one if I'll need it.

by **barricade2218** » Thu Sep 01, 2011 12:19 pm

I have the Armada version which is a lot different from Amazon's.. I didn't get the takara one, so I'm looking forward to getting this version with new head and colors. Also had the black version, but I sold that one.

by **radioboomer** » Thu Sep 01, 2011 1:01 pm

Mine has arrived but I haven't checked it out yet. Looking forward to getting it out. At this point, all my Unicron's (regular Armada, black and now this one) will take up a shelf by themselves!

by **barricade2218** » Thu Sep 01, 2011 8:02 pm

With any luck, I will see mine tomorrow. I'm leaving this one out since the other is packed deep away.

I've been to the Targets and WM's and haven't seen anything new, except I did see some TC stuff at WM West. The small and medium figures and two battle sets. I was tempted to pick up the two kid figures (wily kit and kat), but resisted. =P~

That battle cruiser was cool too, but saving money for the third party boys TF stuff now.

Hey man, could you pick one up for me?

by **smartguy2536** » Tue Sep 06, 2011 9:59 pm

Never mind bro, I picked one up today. Thanks a million for the heads up!!!

News Credits: 3 · by **Fistful of Energon** » Tue Sep 13, 2011 9:49 pm

I don't think anyone lives down here in southern indianapolis, but I thought i should share. I ran into toys r us today and found at least 8 Generations Warpaths. I bought two, and he is a great figure!

by **barricade2218** » Sat Sep 17, 2011 11:59 am

Target gb had at least six HA Leadfoot yesterday evening when I was there. Nothing new at TRU.

by **smartguy2536** » Tue Sep 20, 2011 3:25 am

Walmart on Lima/Dupont had one warpath and wheeljack (picked up wheeljack) as well as some of the newer mars converters. I'm not sure which ones they had, but I picked up one of the 'drifter' mold. It's decent for a KO haha.
