TRU summer 1999. I finally find the bot I've been looking for: TM2 Cybershark! And, do to a computer glitch or something, I got him for a whopping 3.99. Awsome!
Super Wal-Mart march 2005. My local Wal-Mart was doing major renovation on their toy section so they had to make room. I got like 4 of the Ironhide/Jetfire 2-packs, 3 Landmine/Scorponok 2-packs, and 4 or 5 deluxe 2-packs, all for $3 a piece. I added it up and I think it wound up being like $200 worth in TF's for like $40. Oh, man, double awsome!
But, my best story EVER is: Last summer. I'm talking to my 28-year-old co-worker and he mentions he has some TF's from when he was younger. I'm like, okay, bring EVERYTHING you have to work and I'll make you an offer. Okay, he get's there the next day with 2 HUGE rubbermaid containers FULL of vintage G1 figs. Highlights include a %100 COMPLETE Reflector, a %100 complete Targetmaster Cyclonus, a fully functional and %100 complete Trypticon, a red Bumblebee, and like a handful of small Pretenders, more Micromasters than I care to count, and then a bunch of other stuff like random accecories and stuff. Everything was in about C-7 to C-9 condition (SHOCKER considering the age of this stuff). Okay. Now guess how much I paid for all this. Go ahead, guess, I'll wait...... $50 even. The really awsome part is that I only kept about half of the stuff, the highlights I listed among others. The other half I sold on ebay for a whopping $430.... Oh, dag, son! To this day, I still can't believe it happened. And it couldn't have happened at a better time cuz all the profit pretty much became my Botcon budget last year. So, yeah, those are my stories.
