The Energon Pub

I didn't have much of a haul this year, but I was able to get 2 figures that I really had my eyes on for a bit.

2010 Box set
2010 Con add-on exclusives
2005 Deathsaurus
Henkei Smokescreen
Cybertron Cannonball

Best present and acquisition:

Beast Wars Returns Megahead Megatron from Flux Convoy!! You are the man, and that's my best Bday present in YEARS brutha. Can't thank you enough for it.

I didn't actually attent Botcon this year (I was actually in Orlando last week and left Friday...), but I snagged Clench and Rapido on Ebay Friday. I wasn't too interested in this years set aside from Sky-bite, Clench, and Rapido. Hopefully I can find Sky-bite at a decent aftermarket price... Funny thing is, I've seen Streetstar go for 20 bucks and less on Ebay quite a few times...so I may end up getting him just because he's pretty cheap. I wonder why nobody likes him. The Prowl mold itself is really good.

I didn't get much.

How much did you pay for these? And did you flamewar have tech specs and instructions?




Here's my haul. I may have overspent a tad. . .

This is my haul. I'm most proud of my henkei Thundercracker, Sdcc Rodimus, and that Rapido.

I dunno dude. If I were you, I'd be most proud of that Classics Devastator. He's mighty sweet.

I'll get some pics up in the next couple days when I'm not so insane with tired. I didn't get anything crazy awesome but most of it was stuff I really wanted.

Prime Evil, enjoy it bud. It really was my pleasure.

Indeed.

Nice haul too Skice!

I didn't get to go but I did pick up Double Punch on Friday, it was at the house by Monday. Are there no electronics or did I get some kind of KO? Can somebody enlighten me, please.

I got mine at the show, and it has no electronics either. The button doesn't even move when you try to press it. I'm assuming the electronics were removed, as they've done that with other figures.

They pretty much always remove the electronics.


So, I got the following:
Box set + Slicer
All three show sets

G1 Slapdash
G1 Trypticon
RotF red Rampage

That's it! Dealer prices were all high for the most part. I outright laughed at some of the prices I got quoted on at least two occasions. The selection this year was good, that should be said. All the same, I just didn't find a whole lot of things that fell into my price/quality range for G1 stuff.

Razorclaw's haul is always tops. But I guess anything that earns you a tophat & monacle still gets the biggest bragging rights?

I noticed that Noisemaze and pointed out to someone else on the boards who was with me at the time...they passed it up.

I'm not naming names, but someone out there won't be sleeping well.

I took some pills and slept just fine, thank you very much.

No monacle for you? I guess you'll just have to view the elite from the outside looking in. Just like me, and most everyone else.

Would you say that he's... grumbling?

Thanks for the info. Just wanted to make sure. I have an extra Energon Scropy.
Is there some mod for surgery? I'd really prefer if it made noise like the other releases.

You see, I wear glasses. That's like two monacles in one!

I saw that NMPT too. CP might have pointed it out to a bunch of us. Despite the elite silently turning their backs on me for not owning one, I'm still a silent member. Shhh, don't tell them.
