Michigan Transformers sightings
$20 Seems like the range, you might want to look for cases also, which may only cost alittle more & you get a bunch of figures. I want the hand also but currently my Spike from the Takara PVC's is hanging out with MP Prime.

now that i have an mp-01 i kinda want this hand attachment. but not for large sums of monies. guess i'll have to wait. what's the going rate? 20ish? more?
Hand attachment? The Ax?

I haven't seen the chase figure for less than $32 not including S&H. I doubt you will find one for less than $38 including S&H.
I would also gladly trade a Minga for it

A case won't always provide a chase figure though, they roughly appear 1/30 from what I understand.

1/30 is not good odds at all. i actually kinda like the figures too, so i might go the case route and try my luck. those seem to be pretty scarce these days though and chances are they've been picked through to get the chase even if they say it's sealed. oh well.

Anyone seen the 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime re-issue at retail ($50 or less)?
I'm looking to score another one to put in my office at work but I haven't seen any other than the opened one at TRU in Okemos that was $90 and a few at the TRU in Novi that were also $90.

If anyone can get a hold of the Marvel Legends Young Avengers and House of M let me know. Or maybe I can just hunt them down Thursday.
Where were they at again?
Also noob I would be willing to split a case with you. If the Chase is pulled you can have it. What do you think?
I'm not going to be able to make it on the 4th but hopefully I'll be able to meet you guys sometime in the near future anyways.lol

walmart has been clearing out the 20th primes, but i have never seen this personally. that walmart in howell used to have a bunch of them, but they're gone now, so we probably missed it.
rodimus, that would be cool, but the chances of finding a case these days are pretty slim. my connection in singapore can get one for about $30 but postage will be painful.

That is the auction I have been watching for the last couple of days since I forgot about his previous one. No clue how many this guy has on hand though.

ok. so we don't step over each others toes, let us plan our bidding a little bit. i've spent way too much on transformers this month ... and probably enough for next month too, so JTK, i'm bowing out of the running for that guy. hope you get it!
i'm actually probably going to case route if i can when i can. if anyone wants the regular six figures, i've seen sets for about $24 inclusive of shipping.

Well, I was actually thinking about bidding on that, too. I guess I inadvertently stopped a potential bidding war. Through some poking around, I did notice that this guy has them on his site for $20 and the set of six regular figures for $12. Sites like this always make me a bit nervous, though.

No need to worry, he is very trustworthy. I have bought from him many times and HIGLY recommend him, and I believe PQP would say the same.

ionacus, they're on semi-clearance so they're cheap, about 4 for singles and 5ish for the 2 packs. but they're heavily scalped, so check the kbs in your area quick. it's been a week now, so you have to hope for a restock, or a slow kb.
yeah i actually know about that site through TT and the set that i was talking about was from his ebay store. you and JTK should work things out, no sense for us to be bidding against each other.

Thanks. I won the auction, it ended a bit higher than I had hoped but several people placed bids in the last hour.

My aren't we a loquacious bunch lately?
I can post and PM again.
No sightings to report. I did pick up some Wave 4 ML Showdown at the Fairlane KB yesterday. I got Venom, Invisible Woman, and Daredevil, on top of the Cyclops and Thor that boon hooked me up with. Still haven't seen a variant. There were very little left, just a couple of Cyclops and maybe a Daredevil. I wanted the last Thor but it was reserved for someone, grrr.
And I have TIT Cheetor and Fallen, as well as the ML Icons Beast variant coming from BBTS.
Once again ready for the 'Con this weekend, I hope there is a little more buying this time around.
Happy Birthday, Glen.
May you find some Wave 3 and 4 ML Showdown! If I come across any more I'll grab them for you.

I saw two classic Ramjets, a mirage and Cliffjumper at the Ann Arbor Saline Road Meijer today. Yes, I said meijer. this is the first time I've seen classic deluxes at meijer. I'm really surprised they had wave 3. nothing else new to report.
