I gotta say, optimus is fantastic. At least he looks really good in bot mode....he's got a little too much on his back though and in alt mode behind the cab isn't so great (all first impressions..haven't had a chance to fiddle with him anymore) his hands are visible and there's some open space...nothing too out of the norm for hasbro though.

There was an unopened case of Fall of Cybertron at the Ann Arbor Saline Walmart tonight. It was still on the palette.

Target in Livonia on Plymouth and Middlebelt had a bunch of the FOC figs (all 3, mulitple times). Also had Stealth BBee Kre-O, Optimus Maximus, Weaponizers Prime and Bbee, the Bot-shots 4 pack, and the Jackhammer and Driller Legion vehicles. Nothing new as far as PRID deluxes go though.

12/Gratiot Walmart has all 3 FOC deluxes. I believe it was 2 of each. Also, Gratiot Target has Weaponizers (1 Prime, 2 BBs). Target also has the Optimus "jungle gym" which is much larger in person than I expected it to be. Happy hunting everyone.

Got my jet Vehicon in the mail from tfsource.com today. Theres a lot more different between the regular Vehicon and him then I thought. In alt mode the only thing that is the same mold is the windshield! But all the robot mode parts are the same. All in all I fricken love him, even his iguana gun.

I've been seeing a lot of new Prime stuff at Meijer lately. Pretty much everything except deluxes. Weaponizers, new comanders, Opti-gym Prime and the other legion playsets. They've had the pegs open and marked for the deluxes for at least a month or 2 but still no sign of them.

Cleaning out my secret hunting ground, huh, Chzuck!?....lol j/p. Expensive is right though. I actually don't hate Weaponizer Prime. He could be much better (thought about grabbing another just to give customizing a try)and definitely not worth the $30.

Found cyberverse commander Ultra Magnus at the Center Rd. Target in Flint today. Left them the Ironhide and Skyquakes brother whom I can't remember the name of. Not much else to speak of.

Dreadwing? Dreadwind? whatever. lol

Ann Arbor TRU had 2 Shockwaves, 2 Primes and 2 Jazzes. They also had a Sky Shadow and a Junkheap. Lots of new Botshot stuff too. That's about it though. Only BBs and CJs in the Prime deluxes and no prime voyagers.

Thought I would share my listing with my fellow Michigan Seibertronians before I threw them on Ebay. I hate to be letting them go but I need the room and could use the $$. You won't find another collection like this in one place any time soon. Conttrary to what the listing says, they have already been returned to their boxes and are ready to go. Hopefully to a good home where they will be taken care of for years to come.

As far as sightings go, nothing new here. Probably going out to grab a Prime jungle gym in a bit. Would have grabbed it last weekend but I can't always afford everything at once. Especially with prices on the rise. Good luck everyone.

Well, my Jet Vehicon won't come until Monday, but I did find another Vehicon at the Carpenter road Target in Ann Arbor tonight. there was also 2 Weaponizer BBs, 1 Hideous Maximus, a voyager starscream and a hot shot.

I just got lucky. It's only the 2nd one I've seen in stores. Rijie got me my first one. then the first that I saw in the store I picked up for tfpredaking. That was back in May. this is the first one I've seen since then. they are few and far between.

Optimus Maximus is a huge piece of crap. Nonetheless, I am a completist and I just had to have him. Oh well. Hindsight is 20/20. Has anyone grabbed the Kreo Prime/Megs 2-pack yet? I saw it at one of the targets but I don't remember which one. $40 is a bit steep.

I got my Jet Vehicon yesterday. This is hands down my favorite figure from the Prime/Arms Micron line. I took some pictures of it. Took one and messed with it in iPhoto and now it can fly!!

There were a couple of FOC Shockwaves at 14/ Gratiot Target yesterday along with a fair amount of Primes and Jazz. I can't believe there have not been any Vehicons in the area yet. I did pick bite the bullet and picked up the Kre-O Battle for Energon set. Simple compared to the first Prime/ Megatron but I actually really like them. I built the alt modes. I did not put the bank together because I think it is kind of pointless.

Hello strangers.

Finally got my hands on some Kreo Blind-Packs today at the DB TRU, about 11:30am. There were only 6 left in the box, and I picked up 3(the others were dupe numbers), ended up with Spinister, Sunstorm, and Waspinator.

I have to say they rock glaciers, Spinister especially. The altmodes are surprisingly well-executed, and they have loads of character.

If they keep this up, I'll admit to having another addiction...

Still want Galvatron and Skorponok from this wave, and I'm very eager to see how the combiners turn out. They are exceedingly fun so far!
