HA Roadbuster

topspin and roadbuster :grin:

Picked up DLX Ratchet, Cyberfire Bumblebee, another DLX Crankcase to build my Dread Army(aka Sweeps) and HA Roadbuster. I love this mold for Ratchet but to display him in scale with other DOTM figures is a challenge. In an earlier thread I said I'll only display DLX Ratchet with VGR Ironhide and VGR Optimus. I've changed my mind :-?

. After getting DLX OP, Ratchet looks more in scale with him than VGR IH & VGR OP >:oP

. DAMN!! Just when I was about to get bored with another Bumblebee I-)

, Hasbro slaps us with Cyberfire BB. His paint job and eyes, WOW :shock:

!! 10x better then the first DOTM figure. HA Roadbuster reminds me of why I collect HA figures. I love my DLX Roadbuster but the HA version is superior

. His vmode is movie accurate, botmode is awesome and worth every penny.

I dont have that much money lying around... Still, I went to TrU today. Of course, being in Québec, no MP Rodimus anywhere. I doubt I'll ever see him here. They had a very limited offer. Buy one TF get the second at 50% off. They mostly have DotM stuff. The only Gen and RtS figures left I already have or are uninteresting. I have all the DotM voyagers save Fireburst Prime and Sentinel. I already have Leader Sentinel. No "scan" deluxes. I already have all the DotM deluxes that interest me.

I'm not a big fan of Movie Ironhide. Still, I have the HftD deluxe and the DotM voyager. I only heard great things about Leader Ironhide. So, I bought him at 60$CAN+Taxes..............and another Leader Ironhide!

Why?

I'm not too sure. I already have RotF HA Bumblebee, who is PERFECT. A leader size Bumblebee is a little stupid. Way too big for the character. The HA figure IS the ultimate Bee. Sentinel Prime is great, but he's pretty common on the shelves, like Bee. I had to use the special offer. 103$CAN total for two leaders is a pretty good deal. (STFU you spoiled Americans!) They only had Two leader Ironhide in stock and I never saw him at Walmart. I'll keep him sealed in box and see if he'll increase in value.

DotM Leader Ironhide IS awesome like everyone promised!

Anyway, have YOU ever bought the same toy twice? For which reason?

Waiting for HA Soundwave, Deluxe Soundwave, Deluxe Wheeljack(Q), Deluxe 2 pack Leadfoot and Twin Twist.
Hasbro Pleas tell me you are planning to make a Leader Class DOTM Megatron!

Was finally picking up Voyager Megatron from the line when what did my greedy eyes behold? The only Guzzle on the shelf and at only $5 dollars, I totally picked him up. He is tight as hell but a great little scout figure. And his gun can be left pointing up in robot mode so its far more comic accurate then the packaging shows him

It's funny how you have an opinion one day then it changes the next :-?

. The comment I made about DOTM DLX Ratchet is totally BS! After sleeping on it, I realize Ratchet's vmode looks too big next to DLX OP. I'll stick with the DLX Ratchet, VGR OP and VGR IH display. It's not the best display but it will do until Hasbro make a new DOTM VGR mold for Ratchet. Hint hint Hasbro!

Today I picked up Cyberverse figures Ironhide, Powerglide, Topspin, Leadfoot, Megatron, Blackout, Hatchet and the Autobot Ark(this thing is AWESOME). Hasbro, you got me! Cyberverse figures are addictive. I don't need another Transformers addiction. Damn you Hasbro! :BANG_HEAD:

You've been a busy collector this past week, haven't you?

Anyways, I got DOTM Jolt.

That's it for a while. I need a break from this line. It's overwhelming. Maybe in a week or two I'll buy my next figure (hopefully it will be HA Leadfoot, depending on how much money I have at that time :roll:

)

Are you trolling, or are you posting in the wrong thread?

Anyway, a few posts back, I said I randomly bought two leader Ironhides because of the limited time offer "buy one get the other at 50% off" from TrU. I keep one sealed, the other I played with. I noticed how much he's in perfect scale with HA Bumblebee. I already had voyager DotM Ironhide so I went back to TrU to get DotM deluxe Bumblebee to go with him (the 50% second was gen Skullgrin).

DotM Deluxe Bumblebee is one of the best deluxe TF ever!

Perfect vehicle, perfect robot, fun and clever transformation... why the hell did I not got him sooner?!

Also, I'm jelly of you spoiled Americans who get all the new figures so early. Jeez, even most exclusives don't come to Québec at all! Screw you TrU for keeping MP Rodimus from me. :sad:

I need a break too. I just can't take one. I want a HA Leadfoot also and collect the rest of the Cyberverse figures. 3 classes of Soundwave =P~

is coming and they are a must buy for me. Getting 2 to 3 figures a week isn't so bad or do I have a problem?

Sun Aug 21, 2011 1:03 pm

Can't buy just one. I'm a proud owner of Cyberverse Ratchet & Crankcase.

I feel your addiction. Transformers are like toy crack. As soon as you get a new one and get it home, you're already jonezin for another one... :shock:

I believe the term you are looking for is Plastic Crack.

HA Leadfoot---after searching eBay over the weekend trying to find one at a decent price I called all the local Targets today. Finally found a store with him this afternoon after giving the clerk the DCPI (087-06-1666), he pulled out one out of the stockroom, had it at the service counter waiting for me this evening.

SCORE!!! Congrats!

Mon Aug 22, 2011 9:41 pm

I went and got HA Leadfoot and Target exclusive Arcee (kinda transparent pink) today. Sad thing is that I didn't get to explore 'ole Leadfoot's robot mode because I have to get up at 5 am. Also purchased HA Roadbuster yesterday.
