This is sad really: holding off of on a certain purchase, only for your wife to buy them for you:

Prime Sergeant Kup
Prime Decepticon Rumble


I was waiting for the price to go down on them, but my wife beat me to the punch. And I'm happy for that :x Kup will join Team Leo Prime and Rumble... I think he'll get along with Dead End. I just need a new name for the guy. Anyone?
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

- Jelze Bunnycat =:3

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him :()
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1 (plus repro Victorion hands and feet?)

Well if something ever possesses me to buy PRiD Kup, I'll call him Brawn.

As for FRumble, at a glance the 'bots that have a similar look would be Micromaster Hyperdrive, G2 Skram (paint his head silver, and that'd be my choice), Armada Mini-con Spiral, or the blue 'Bee that never was: Glyph.

Funny thing, I just dug out my two Galaxy Force Rambles, red and yellow (still need the blue). So I'll use the Cybertron name for now: Scrapmetal :lol:

Nothing special for me today really, not worth posting a picture for:

Prime Dreadwing

He was half off, shortpacked, was convinced into getting the guy. I doubt I'll get to see Skyquake here however, we skipped Starscream for pete's sake.

Shockwave

So I went all across town looking for Voyager Grimlock and or Blitzwing and was disappointed by the selection the stores in my town had. So after checking wal-mart, TRU, and target, I dropped in to check on the tiny sliver of the Transformers section of the toy aisle in Fred Meyers. I should of taken a picture because the selection there was TINY. So after looking through a shelf dedicated to Predaking, I find an unexpected jewel amongst the rubble...

Voyager Shockwave.

This guy is AWESOME. Tank mode is sweet, robot mode is fantastic, and he TOWERS over his FoC self. I also can't stop playing with his spinning "Hyperflux Cannon." It's so addicting!!! :D

The only thing that could of made this badass con even better is if he had the exact same color scheme as his G1 self. Now before I get attacked here...look at my signature. That's just the fanboy in me wanting a G1 shockwave :lol:

Wow seriously? You're telling me this AFTER I bought Shockwave? :lol:

I'll have to hold out and see, my local Target is very slow on getting the upcoming additions. We just got FoC generations wave 2 last week and I'm still digging through beast hunters wave 1.

My wife just keeps treating me, the sweetheart :x This time it's another girl:

Prime RiD Arcee

Waves 2 and 3 have been skipped or overlooked by most stores, so finding her is kind of a big thing. :) So now that the FE vs. PRiD Arcee debated has been sorted, now for FE vs. PRiD Bulkhead one.

I know the FE is considered the better of the two, but I have a soft-spot for the PRID, the darker colours work on this one really well. The Microns should have been chromed IMHO, they just look "unfinished" and nowhere near as impressive as a Cosmotector shield should! I got on sale at £40, so can't complain.

Now I know I said I wouldn't pick up BH stuff, but GO! doesn't count, right?

From what I understand, these guys were given away at a number of places on the day of the promotion, so much so that they were bundled in for free on a board members purchase! They should be one of the more common teams....

The new Shining Optimus Prime Blaster may well prove tricky tho' :(

I can't wait to see what you come back with from C.O.N.S, just don't blow the moving budget!

I actually managed to find a Skyquake at the TRU in Time Square. They had a load of Thundertrons and a bunch of Vehicons if anyone is interested in them, and they may have had a few other Skyquakes. The one I found was hidden near the back behind the dozens of Thundertrons. I'm amazed I managed to find it at all for retail price.

That's 30(!) stand-alone Campaign AM's, although not all kits as some were repaints from PCC or in the case of Vector Oracle, Classics Verse.

The only one I don't own is Golden O.P, who I'm discounting as he came with a larger figure and is a "partner", not a solo release.

I think I just scared myself :shock:

Motto: "When in doubt, transform and roll out!"
Weapon: Saber Blade
I recently acquired BH DX Lazerback and BH DX Bumblebee. I am honestly impressed with both toys. I wouldn't have bought them if not for TRU Canada's 1/2 price sale on TF toys right now.

Lazerback looked so mediocre in photos and videos but once I was able to have the toy in hand, I was smitten! It seems to be another example of a return to a larger size for TF toys. The plastic is thicker and feels more sturdy. There's more heft to it than the PRID DX toys. I'm not a fan of beastformers, though I don't dislike them, but BH toys like Lazerback have won me over. The colours also look much better to me in person. I can't wait to get myself a Vertebreak!

As far as BH DX BB goes, it's a pleasant surprise. Even though it's an extensive retooling of PRID DX BB, the BH version has so much going on that it is an entirely new toy to me. The bot mode also seems to be less flimsy than either PRID DX BB or Hot Shot. Perhaps this is how BB will look in Predacons Rising. I like the new head sculpt and the alt mode looks like something Mad Max would drive. Overall, not only does it look significantly different than the base mold but it also feels noticeably sturdier.

All in all, it was a surprisingly good little haul for me.
Toys for sale, S.H. Figuarts, Revoltech, Robot Damashii, Figma, and more!

Discounts for purchases of 3 items or more! See sales thread for details.

As far as BH DX BB goes, it's a pleasant surprise. Even though it's an extensive retooling of PRID DX BB, the BH version has so much going on that it is an entirely new toy to me. The bot mode also seems to be less flimsy than either PRID DX BB or Hot Shot. Perhaps this is how BB will look in Predacons Rising. I like the new head sculpt and the alt mode looks like something Mad Max would drive. Overall, not only does it look significantly different than the base mold but it also feels noticeably sturdier.

All in all, it was a surprisingly good little haul for me.


Yeah, BB does look decent in BH form. I would have got him to, but then I saw the Night Shadow Bumblebee which is really nice.
