I also recommend MP Sideswipe. Kind of plain Jane and definitely smaller than you are probably thinking but the Countach alt is fabulous, the transform is surprising, and it is like Doc Bot said, the toy we pretended we had when we were kids. It strikes a great silhouette and is fun. Considering another one for alt mode display.

By the way, iGears Ironhide, Ratchet and Brawn look fantastic when grouped with him. Hard to tell the others are not MPs as well.

Received my MP Sideswipe and G2 FOC Bruticus yesterday, still haven't opened them. I'll get to it this weekend.

Still no sign of the standard FOC Combaticons...
I told the fire to go **** itself, and it did.

MISP preferred, but will consider opened NM/Complete, especially for older figures. Lots of TFs for trade! Please PM any inquiries, serious interest only!

yeah I saw a pic of mp10 along with the igear boys and sideswipe and it looks fan-tastic! I have the weapons specialist and he is beautiful...but once again, I had to make a choice..ratchet or ironhide..couldn't justify spending the money on both...would if I could though! I opened my G2 brute Rij and unfortunately, in combined mode they are very very VERY disappointing. Not a complete surprise based on pics...but somewhat surprising in terms of the cheapness feel they have combined. Individually I am very impressed with 'em though. Just too bad they STILL can't get the combiner standard up.

Grabbed a GDO Hot Spot from Livonia TRU. I left them with one Powerdive and two Megatrons. Still haven't seen the deluxes.

They also had a nice amount of the Prime FE deluxes. At least two of each.

I liberated my MP Prime from layaway today. That only took a half hour of being told to go stand in other places. Seasonal TRU employees are so incredibly helpful!!! :roll:

Dearborn Target(Ford Rd.) has 1ea. PRID Kup, Rumble, Knockout, and 2 Vehicons, and the latest wave of CV Legion, no new Voyagers or FOC. Pretty sure the price was $15.64ea. Picked up CV Skyquake there, the only 1.

Happy Hunting.

Same at Wonderland Target earlier this afternoon. Someone had kindly bent the crap out of all the card backs.

The DB TRU has a dyad of Generations Voyager Megatrons, same for Deluxes Wheelie, Swerve, Cliffjumper. Also a couple of FE Entertainment Packs, and 1 MP Thundercracker. Sundry other stuff...

So, still no sightings of the FE Voyagers via SE MI?

Hope the 'con was okay yesterday...

AA Toys r us has around 40 MP Primes available. There are about 15 cases above the aisle and a whole bunch strewn all over the shelves and floor. I guess he's not rare anymore. I saw a 20% off coupon in the Sunday paper which should help.

Happy Thanksgiving all.

Target in woodhaven has 2 tfprime thundertrons and the deluxes were maked down to $11.99 (remember those days?)

Also...Hasbrotoyshop.com has 20% off and free shipping on orders $50 and over. great way to get the combaticons...if you want 'em.
