Run Away!!!


Holy crap, Bruticus is awesome. It was almost hard to put him into combined mode because Explorer and Munitioner are so awesome. I can't wait to see what Fansproject does next!

Canton Walmart had 1 Sidearm Sideswipe and 1 Tuner Skids. No Hailstorm or Elita-1.

Don't really have anything to report. AA TRU had nothing new today. I bought an iPhone 4 on Tuesday. Posting on seibertron is a lot faster on this than the 3G:-)

Just in case anybody's interested in this bit of news, the resurrected fall Motor City Con has been moved from October 30-31 to November 20-21. I was concerned about this since there's an Xtravacon scheduled on November 21 and nothing in October. So, I contacted the Motor City people to let them know that I was a bit miffed at having what would amount to roughly 10% of my yearly con earnings taken away. They got back to me pretty quick and informed me that they added an October 24 Xtravacon but haven't added it to the website yet. I just realized that got a bit complicated. Hopefully that makes a moderate amount of sense.

http://www.motorcityconventions.com

So far they haven't updated the site to include guests. They just have May's guest list up.

Oh, rats.
I forgot that was the May list, I'd been thinking I'd get to see Jeremy Bulloch (again) and Ray Park. Hmm.

went hunting all weekend for the next wave of Generations figs with no success. ended up grabbing HFTD seaspray though cause he looks more like a classics figure than a movie one. anyone need the code he came with for the website? i don't plan on using it.

I totally should...anyone game? I'm not going there by myself because of the location (one of my photographer friends gave me directions to the site).

I'm free Saturday if you'd like to go exploring. I'm totally comfortable most places downtown.

Sorry that I didn't reply sooner. The only times I'll be able to check out the set would have to be after work M-F anytime after 3:30. Weekends are a no-go since I'm all booked up through October.

Yay! Just preordered my Fansproject Protector armor and his Targetmaster Sidearm from BBTS.com.

I found Generations Darkmount at Westlad Target this afternoon. They also had two WFC Megatrons but I passed on them because I didn't like how sloppy the paint apps were. I checked Livonia Target after that and noticed they had marked the deluxes up to $11.86. Westland still had them at $9.99 so now might be the time to grab any deluxes you may be on the fence about.

From what I've herd, MP Rodimus is almost as tall as MP Prime. If you buy the MP Prime with trailer, it also runs about 200 smackeroos. so I think the pricing is about right. I just have problems with the trailer turning into the exact same thing as the g1 toy turned into. I frickin HATE g1 Rodimus! lol

Careful man, a comment like that could get Rodimusconvoy13 to track you down and beat the crap out of you a la Jay and Silent Bob moviepoopshoot.com style

DOH!

I'll let you off with a warning this time,

Thanks to TFpredaking, I have Generations Megatron, Soundwave and Red Alert. He ordered them through Stadium Cards and comics. Unfortunately, there was only 1 Darkmount in the case Soundwave and Megatron are really nice. Megatron's alt mode is kinda boring, but his robot mode is really nice. Soundwave is really cool. His chest opens so you can store his weapons. I wonder if a 3rd party company will make a Laserbeak or Ravage that fits inside?

saw a white ford jeep with a pink autobot symbol on it today. anyone in the macomb area know a hot blonde that drives that car and has a pet yorkie? that would be her.

I'm sorry, was it a white Ford or a white Jeep? If it's a white Jeep with a pink symbol, that's just all sorts of wrong O_o You should've gotten a picture

FYI:

kids.woot.com has the DVD set Transformers: 25th Anniversary Matrix of Leadership Edition on sale today (Monday Sep 13th) for only $59.99.
