So, if you tell someone else...you can say that a friend told you that a friend told him that a friend said that...anyway you get the pic.
I took pics at the film site on Howard St. right off the Lodge/M-10 in Detroit today
They had the huge spaceship set up with Shia and Rosie doing a scene on it and Bay was overseeing it. Pics to come soon
!!!
Well, I wasn't able to see any indication that it was transformers related...I took some pics and made a few passes...but wasn't able to stop...somewhat of a busy road and the cops were keeping the flow. It was at an abandoned hotel right off of dixie hwy and whatever they were doing it was definitely film related. I did see a water truck but wasn't able to catch any symbols (if they even existed) I'll be able to see how my pics turned out tomorrow...very low expectation though. Can't wait to see yours!!!!

I have a friend that was cast as an extra in the movie, as well as Detroit 187 in multiple episodes along with his daughters. He originally said he was supposed to grow out his sideburns for a 60's scene, but they canceled that on him and refit his wardrobe for something else. I haven't bothered to ask him where they film though.
The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

8 & Haggerty Meijer has the wave 2 PCC 5-packs. That has to be the first new TF item I've seen first at a Meijer since Beast Wars.

Go Meijer. Meijer in Westland used to be THE place to find new things during Energon.

I was going for business reasons, but now I'm just going to buy toys.
I hope someone sells something my brother wants, so I can not buy it and laugh at him.

Are you guys on the east side still seeing Animated Rodimus at TRU? I can't seem to get my hands on one in Grand Rapids. I wonder if I missed him.

I found 1 MP Grimlock at the Novi TRU yesterday. He's now on my desk at work. Neither of the Grand Rapids TRUs had them, no any animated. I stopped at a few places on my way back from Grand Rapids yesterday, but I didn't see anything new.

Southfield TRU got the Legends Devastators today. I didn't realize he was gonna be G1 yellow/green only, I thought it'd be a full out paint job. Could make for a good project.
Speaking of paint jobs, we also got that Rampage/Bumblebee/Ravage 3-pack with the updated paint jobs on the Decepticons. Kinda want it just for Rampage. Ravage looks nice, but I still prefer my little legends one to go with the rest of my TFs.

Scored Animated Rodimus at Livonia TRU earlier today! I left them with one Rodimus and two Ironhides but I doubt they're still there. They also had the G1-colored Legends Devastator and the new ROTF 3-pack.
Livonia TRU also had plenty of new Minimates. They had a case each of Ghostbusters Best Of wave 2, Marvel TRU wave 8, and Universal Monsters wave 1.

got my jetpack bumblebee from bbts.com. what a cool figure! much better transformation than the deluxe and he's closer to the right scale with the rest of my main cast animated shelf. I kinda wish he was sold as a deluxe instead of putting that "jetpack" in with him and upping the price. oh well, still a nice addition to my shelf.
