Monday I stopped by Walmart to find Guzzle. Nothing. I did buy Leader Bumblebee. I know, It's another Bumblebee. Just thought I should finish off the DOTM Leader Class since nothing new is out. Ok. I'll say it right now. SlyTF1, I agree. This is the best Bumblebee EVER! I have alot of Bees including BB Bumblebee. Leader Bee takes it! :APPLAUSE:

Yes, the obvious downside is he's not in scale with any DOTM figure. SO WHAT! I'll display him with the deluxe Arcee Trio so he can get his pimp on.

They're close enough. I like the stealth mode without the backpack. The pack is ok, I guess(only in botmode). I would trade the backpack for his head to be on a ball joint and a arm cannon that turns into a hand w/ wrist articutation any day. Two flaws I can live with. Anyway, good job Hasbro. ;)^

Yesterday I went to Kmart looking for Guzzle and of course he wasn't there. So I convince myself to buy CV Bumblebee & CV Sideswipe. Other than them not having elbow joints, cool figures.

I really like Sideswipe's vmode. Convertibles. =P~

Got Skyhammer and I *love* the way this dude looks, especially next to Faith Leader Optimus.

A tip to anyone that owns one though: if the legs end up feeling loose (to the point it can't even support his weapon in his hand), tighten the screws on his leg and waist up with a small screwdriver. Did wonders for mine.

I now have Cyberverse Battle Scene Shockwave and Megatron.

I finally found my Cyberverse

Decepticon Hatchet

. He was at my local TrU, hidden in a sea of Optimus Prime, Sentinel Primes, and Ironhides. Even at 12.58$CAN (taxes included), I'm glad I didn't wait for a sale. I may have lost him forever, or I would have to turn to Ebay and it's rape prices.

I'm not usually a fan of the Scout Class figures. But man, that Transformers is worth every penny.

I'll try that, thank you! Just got mine today, and got a bit frustrated with them..

I got Cyberverse Legion Roadbuster and he is a really nice little figure. I especially like his little chain saw!

Just got MP-10 from the store last night. This guy will remain the centerpiece of my collection for years to come.

I finally broke down and picked up a Target exclusive Voyager Ratchet. All in all a nice piece. Makes other DOTM Voyager figures look tiny.

Is it just me or do our Transformers seem to be shrinking the newer molds we get.... :-?

Finally found a HA Roadbuster at Target and he is 4 kinds of awesomeness, though he is a prime (npi) example of a TF that will NEVER be returned to alt mode; man, that was a hard transformation! And the instructions were of little help.

Also grabbed a CV Topspin and a Lego Hero Factory Drill Dozer which happened to be closing out at Kmart.

last night I was able to pick up:

Megatron blaster base cyberverse playset
Jolt
Bumblebee
Sideswipe
Optimus Prime (deluxe walmart)
Whirl
Thunderhead
Icepick
Sandstorm

all for the grand price of $13 at Walmart
there was several books of 5 dollar off coupons at the TF section. You get $5 off a DOTM TF if you spend $5.99 or more. Each one of these TF were marked down to $6 (except megs, he was $9) I would suggest heading to walmart today to see if you can get the same deals

Good looking out, it Looks like not only Hasbro is offering this, but Target has the exact same coupon.

So... Leader 39.99 - 5.00 Hasbro + 5.00 tagret, 29.99 leaders.

Also makes voyagers 7.00
Deluxes 2$
Legion are almost free if you buy one at a time.

Picked up DOTM deluxe Thundercracker, G1-colors Specialist Ratchet and Starscream, 5.77 each after taxes with the $5 coupons, Yay! :grin:

I went to Kmart earlier this week and bought VGR Sentinel Prime & finally, finally CV Guzzle! :KREMZEEK:

I agree with all of the positive comments in this thread about Guzzle. His gun not rotating is the only downside but he's truly a great CV figure. I have the Leader Sentinel but wanted the VGR Mechtech. DLX Ratchet's Mechtech was my favorite but now having VGR Sentinel's , Ratchet's comes in a close 2nd. I mean that thing is a Freakin' Cannon. I wonder if VGR Megatron is jealous. :lol:
