Meijer in Gaylord had 3 or 4 PRID Vehicons as well as 2 Soundwaves and a Soundblaster. Picked up a Soundwave. Hefty mofo! :CON:

Today, Westland TRU had a couple FOC deluxe Combaticons. Blast Off and Vortex, I think. They also had a few Voyager Soundwaves and a crap-ton of the little 2-packs.

Grabbed the Stunticons@the DB TRU on Fri, very happy with that set. Might pick up the Polar Assault set eventually, but mainly because there's another chase fig included.

Hope everyone is having a safe and happy Holiday season!
I told the fire to go **** itself, and it did.

Looking for Gen Soundblaster if any locals can help. Nothing new at Westland or Livinia TRUs. No Prid BHunters anymore.

I picked up FOC Starscream at the Flint TrU today. I left an Ultra Magnus and a Sideswipe. I'm not impressed in the least with any of the FOC figures except for the engeneering of Bruticus and voyager Soundwave and his minions are kinda cool. I think it's safe to say I am not going to be picking up any more mainline Transformers. They keep raising the prices and lowering the quality. Think I'm going to stick with 3rd party and Masterpieces from now on or at least till Hasbro shapes up a bit.
I'm a little sad now. lol

Found the new deluxe Generations wave 3 at TRU in Novi. Picked up Sideswipe, Kickback, and Fireflight/Air Raid. Left a Sideswipe, Starscream, and I think another Magnus.

They also had all the Beast Hunter deluxes x 2. I grabbed a Soundwave.

I'm with BigW though, I'm working on my collecting habits and pruning my collection and collecting habits. In fact, we're discussing this topic on the podcast tonight available next week.

And for those that don't know it, Counterpunch is a published author. Available only digitally on Amazon right now, search for Legacy of Shadow(s). I'm reading it right now, it's a fantasy fiction story. I'm a couple of chapters in and enjoying it.

Ann Arbor TRU had all the Beast Hunters as well as a few voyager Soundwaves and a lone Soundblaster. I wonder if he's short-packed?

These Beast Hunters are pretty neat and have a lot more play-ability with their accessories. I've noticed the remolded ones have pretty loose joints. Lazerback is pretty heavy and bulky which I like. Feels like he's more worth the money.
