Anybody hit up Redmond Freddies after the Leaders got cleared out? It would be interesting to see if the store manager was like, "Man we got go stock some more ROTF stuff, all these $40 figures went in like two hours."

Otherwise Kirkland, Lynnwood, Mill Creek, Bothell, and Monroe Freddies don't have anything out of the ordinary. I hit them all in the last week and a half.

I know recently he got some newer Henkei and Encore, but he's alittle late there. The previous owner had all kinds of Japanese TFs - there was a whole wall devoted to TFs, now it's just a small corner.

I won't be out hunting tomorrow till later in the afternoon.


totally...I don't he's even really keeping stuff in stock. When I picked up my Masterpiece Grimlock from him. He didn't have any left. Plus Sui Wai was way more knowledge about toys and was way better about what he ordered. He always met all his preorders and had extra stock left over to last a few weeks. He's got himself quite a collection too. I bought a bunch of his vintage super robot stuff. That reminds me..I better call that guy. :D

I'm gonna start picking up my henkei stuff at Palace Gifts, the prices are pretty much the same but he's got everything in stock. I think the only ones he didn't have were Skywarp at the mini-bots. He also just got in the Alternity line...pretty sweet but just outta my price range right now.

I was wondering what had happened at Kicks, makes sence if ownership changed. I hope that they aren't possibly closing.

A bit sad for the reason this thread is so active today but i'm glad to see things are still happening in Washington.

Good hunting guys.

Ummm... ok. Crawl back up to Canada, if me coming back to this board makes you so sad. :-x


In sightings today.

Woodinville Target: Has some TFs on clearance:

TFU Ultras (just Silverbolt and Onslaught left): $20.49
TFA Leaders (just Bulkhead left): $30.49
TF Might Muggs (just Prime, BB, and Grimy left): $7.49
TFA Battle Bumpers (lots): I can't remember, but they did have a sticker
TFA Shocky/BB and Sunstorm/Ratchet packs: $17.99

Everything else was still regular price. This does match up with other reports I've read about Target's clearancing stuff for the ROTF space. Good price on those Muggs. Someone from TFW2005, please mention this to Kusanagi, as I remember he was looking for a few Muggs.

Uh Dude, you read that wrong. By sad I meant that the whole deal with them banning you for, from what I can tell, stupid reasons.

The main reason I stick to this site is because I don't see mods pulling jackass moves like that, so good to see you back.

After hearing what happened to CJ7 over at TFW I'll start posting here again. Ah, the days when I first joined the forum...good times.

In sightings news nothing to note of at Everett Target and Toys R Us. Everett Target did stock up on MU figures, but nothing really special. I do like the darker spider-man and torch though...

Not a transformers sighting but I did notice the NBA all star vinyls are out. I may get into these...if anyone spots LeBron, could they give me a heads up? I have Kobe and KG...now I need to get Bron to complete the set.

Should be out hunting tomorrow.

I too fell victim to the nazism-ish ways over at tfw2005. They banned my ip for questioning a mod.

I'm from ohio but it feel its relevant. About 6-8 months ago the tfw ppl had created a spot on their forum i believe called the toyark where users were to post any toy sightings unrelated to tf'ers. The sightings forums in some states were being filled up with more then tf'er sightings. We had a user in ohio that was constantly posting tons of pictures of power ranger stuff. I asked him nicely to stop and to put the pictures in the toyark were they were supposed to go. Of course all hell broke loose cause i'm the new guy and he's a vet. So i took it up with the mods. They actually told him to stop in a public post. So of course all the past members there got all pist off and raised a fuss about me and that there were never any problems before i came. I made a post back that stated my case that they shouldn't have created the toyark if they're not gonna enforce it. I got banned for trolling they said. I emailed many times trying to explain myself but never got a response. Botcon was in cincy last year wish it was there this year cause i'd approach the mother f**ckers on some grown man shit.

peace

Editor - Your original post just sounded wierd, it seemed to me that you were bothered about the recent activity in the WA area. But, if you were really more bothered by the TFW2005 stuff, then that's cool.

amjskateshop - I've come to the conclusion that TFW2005 hates people from Ohio; as that's where I used to live.

The truth is, I don't see as much negative stuff from the Mods here. ACSS is actually in WA and he's pretty cool.

No worries CJ7. I see how my post could have been read the way you read it.

I am bothered a bit if Kicks isn't doing well, because the few times I went there it seemed like a decent store, but beyond that my only complain about Washington is that I can't go down and check up on stuff more often these days. The few times recently I've gone to Bellingham, has been when almost nothing is on the shelves. But at least I can see friends at the same time.

and get Jack in the Box. love that stuff.
