Blitzwing in the mail from Amazon.

Man his shoulders really do suck...

Other than that though he's pretty cool.

Why are the shelves nearly clear of the new waves of Transformers? The new movie figures aren't coming out ALREADY, are they!?

Found a BUNCH of Generations and FOC figures at a Magic Mart today. They're more expensive than everyone else (except for Toys R Us), but I finally got a Blitzwing!

Takara Blaster superior...Hasbro Blaster inferior!

I wish I had a camera or decent phone to show off just how steller Takara Generations Blaster looks. Everything from alt-mode to bot-mode is so much bolder that it's just epic. This is so worth the price but I do recommend shopping for the best price indeed. :VEHI:

The Wreckers came in today, along with Legends Megatron and Starscream. Starscream is pretty tall.

Found Generations sandstorm at target today. Needless to say it came home with me.

An oldie, but one I have been after for a while; Campaign Henkei Skyglide

He wasn't cheap, but completes the trio of Henkei promo Microns for me.

Picked up Sandstorm at Wal-Mart. I think he and Springer may need to bro-fist.

I picked up Sandstorm! Grimwing, Optimus w/roller, Bumblebee w/Blazemaster. And all 12 of the series 2 Kreons! Saw 4 Ultra Magnus figures, playing the waiting game on that one.

Haven't found any of the new Generations figures here in Melbourne yet. Have been to Toys R Us, Kmart, Target, Big W... nothin'. All I've seen in the last couple of months have been Prime figures and Battle Bots (neither of which I want). Oh, hang on, I do lie, I did find a FoC Ultra Magnus about 4 months ago at a Kmart (but couldn't get it at the time). I'm beginning to wonder whether Hasbro just don't give a crap about Australian collectors.

Really hanging to get my hands on Springer and Blitzwing. And maybe even a Grimlock.

To be honest it might be Hasbro US that determines what we get, not 100% certain. That said, there are times where something we were told isn't heading our way suddenly shows up on shelves. Doubt this is one of those times...

I can see the conversation now::

"Well, they can have a bunch of deluxes and a bucketload of Cyberverse stuff... TF: Prime Bumblebees by the truck full... oh hell, we can't move those masks, we'll send them those as well... Bot Shots... wait, what else is in the 'crap' pile we're trying to hide somewhere?"

"Hey, boss! Should we send them any voyager stuff or things that they might actually like?"

"What? To those criminals? You know they're all descended from convicts, dontcha? They get what they get or they go without!"

Just picked up Sandstorm at the local walmart in my familys hometown while on vacation. They had 3 of him on the shelf, and springer and blitzwing. I had springer already and I just cant get excited about blitzwing. so he is the only one left of the 3 i dont have.

Sooo many people hate Blitzwing...

Foibles aside, I really love the Blitzwing mold. More than Springer, to tell you the truth.

Finally managed to get my hands on a Henkei Classics Bumblebee in all his yellow glory!

No more black striped Bumblebee at the front of my Classics shelf.

Gonna have to find myself another replacement head for the old 'bee but just how many yellow versions of the Classics mold can I actually headswap...? :-?
