Sometimes it pays to be awake at odd hours for Hasbrotoyshop...

And as an added bonus, Shockwave has himself a duplicate.

Most logical, indeed.

Not too big, but glad to have found it all:

- Predacons Rising Skylynx
- Predacons Rising Darksteel
- Contructobots Soundwave
- Beast Hunters Sharkticon Megatron

Made my trip to New Orleans well worth it(despite not accomplishing my actual goal for visiting).

Just got my items shipped from BBTS.

First, Platinum Edition Grimlock vs Bruticus.

And the first wave of four, Megatron, Orion Pax, Trailbreakercutter, Bumblebee, and Megatron again.

Grimlock inspects the cargo. He is pleased to see Orion where he belongs.

One Megatron stays boxed for a while, the other will be Grimlock's playmate. It's unclear which fate is worse.

FOC Grimlock: Me Grimlock am greatest warrior!

Platinum Grimlock: No, Me Grimlock am greatest warrior!

Got my TRU Masterpiece Soundwave today. Of course the box was damaged during shipping. Like everyone else, it was stuffed in a big old box with a few air pillow things scattered around. It's really annoying that TRU has had this crappy packaging for years. Still glad I got Soundwave however considering how hard it is to get an order processed.

Recently picked up Construct-bot Ironhide, and I'm really quite happy with it. Nothing else in wave 1 piques my interest, but I'm looking forward to picking more up as the new waves come in.

Got the Night Attack Mini-con Team in the mail today, very glad to finally have these molds! :grin:

And I nabbed a g1 great looking Quickmix off of ebay (sans Boomer and Ricochet, sadly) for just a few bucks. Maybe we'll see an update of this guy in the Generations line, Hasbro?

Finally got my hands on a Generations FOC deluxe Kickback. I had to pay the full 20$ total for it.

Why did I not wait for a sale? Sure, his robot mode is top notch, his weapon is cool, and his transformation scheme is creative. But man, that bug mode is a disapointing mess. Worst than BH voyager Shockwave's "tank" mode.

BH Cyberverse commander class Hardshell is a WAY more superior toy.

Yeah I only see it for $25+ on Amazon. To me it's not worth that price, especially with the instructions being full of errors.

It's mostly the back legs, really. They made perfect robo legs at the cost of not knowing at all how to turn them into bug legs. Also, even if his huge -ass weapon is fun, it's way too big for him. FOC Kickback is not perfect but is not too bad either. It's just the fact of having paid him full expensive price for not living up to it's ridiculous hype that bummed me out a little.

It could have been worse. I could had been impatient an ordered it online early for around 40$ shipped. Luckily, I held out and it just came out in Canada so it's common over here.

I rushed home from work, knowing my birthday present to myself was sitting by the back door, having been notifed via email of the delivery. I went into my house through the front & made a bee-line to the back door, and opened it.

Lo and behold, a giant box with BBTS tape on the seams was there, towering over my curious Siberian Husky's not-short-or-small head and ears. The box looked big enough to stack Willow and Mini-Me inside. I cracked it open and enjoyed the moment before the bubble wrap came off.

I'm off to the post office to send off some ebay sales, so I'll leave you now. It's so hard to leave these bad boys unopened just so I can run some errands...

Those are some solid figures. I tend to enjoy Rodimus more.
