JT, I'm going to newsify this, but do have a receipt or pciture or anything to go with it? Thanks...

Yup. Sorry I didn't realize I was the first one to find the thing and post about it.

First that I was aware of... Someone at TFW found one too, just recently.

Well I have some bad news guys. We just got back from Jackson and every single Classics Devastator was gone

If we go to Fort Wayne tomorrow I can pick some up there but they were $30.

well, somehow I gotted logged out from seibertron and have missed a whole bunch of posts JT, congrats on the titanium two pack! does anyone know what's going on with the 6" titaniums.. the last new one I saw in stores was starscream. I haven't seen either of the magnus', teh fallen or WWI Megatron. luckily I got them all from BBTS. I went to a comic shop in downtown Pittsburgh last night. I picked up 3 of the universe micromaster constructicons. they were 2.95 each loose/complete, so I couldn't pass them up. hopefully I can fine the other 3 at botcon. I also got R4-M9. He's one of hte conehead looking Astromechs. He's rolling along with the captured rebel soldiers in a new hope. Nothing else knew. I'm going to do some sight seeing today and possibly hit a few places looking for that 3" titanium target 3 pack.

Yeah, we get around quite a bit.

Fort Wayne was rather disappointing this time around. I did score the micro raschel throw combo of Optimus Prime and Megatron at Wal-Mart #1570. I also picked up 4x of the Optimus Prime placemats. I picked up an Optimus Prime twin/full fleece blanket at Wal-Mart #1804. Both of those stores are in Northern Indiana, I just don't remember which one is which

At Wal-Mart #1593 in Coldwater, MI I found a ton of the Marvel Super Hero Squad Human Touch & Silver Surfer, I have been looking for those for ages. I picked one up and I also snagged the Iron Man & Thor set - been looking for that one just as long.

I didn't see any of the wave 2 Robot Heroes or any new Deluxes. I saw a few leader class Megatrons but those seem to be fairly mainstream now and I don't remember which stores I saw them at anyway. I forgot my notepad I usually take with me to write down sightings.

well, I had a pretty good day hunting wise in Pittsburgh. I found wave 2 robot heroes at a TRU. they had 3 of each of the packs. I bought them all tfpredaking and PQP, you get the hook up. I found the Optimus titanium 3 pack at target. I picked one of those up. And then I found another TRU and got in there in the last minute. it was 6:55 and they close at 7. I found the wave 3 TAC Shocktrooper. They also had a lot of the new stormtrooper, and AOTC and ROTS clones. I didn't pick up anymore ROTS clones. I've spent too much money before botcon. Both of the TRUs had the reissue soundwaves. I think they had 4 at each store. For those of you that want them MISB, you may have to live with the toys being upside down in the box. All that I checked were like that. Hopefully they'll start showing up around home for you guys that want on. that's all for now.. going to open my new toys. oh yeah, I grabbed a softimus prime. couldn't pass it up anylonger

For those going to Botcon...

Here is my cell number. Don't get frustrated if you have a hard time. I don't usually have it on, but at Botcon I will, and will check frequently for missed calls, etc. This way we can meet up, cause Laura and I are out tomorrow AM!

Matthew Brown (tt24)- 734-776-2741

I know I'll see you all there, but some of you, I have not seen often, so we may have trouble picking each other out in a crowd. Unless Andrew is there, because everybody knows what he looks like around here.

FYI...

The late, great TFM; me in white, Andrew in the Dcon shirt, VP, Scaleface, and Ionacus...

So now you can't miss us at the con right!!! Get to see the movie in 4 days, I get to see the movie in 4 days...

Marvel Legends horror story #5,476:

I already talked to RC13, but I still need to vent...

I got so pissed at my Marvel legends yesterday that I packed up all but 1 shelf worth, which was a lot! I took a lot of time, re-arranged some fig's, had a new bitchin' display going... and 20 minutes later Giant-Man decided to jump. Well, ass hole that Hank Pym is, he turned into a "suicide-bomber" and took out about 25 other figures off 3 shelves on his way down.... F*cking Walmart Giant-Man wave!!

I had to make time in my toy room because were getting new windows put in. I have 2 floor to ceiling book shelves with tons of TF's on them in front of the window to block light... this operation/excavation has been a pain... I play with half the stuff I'm trying to move

I was going to say... you look the same as always

Nice Pic TT, we'll have to get all the Michiganders at Botcon together for one this year. Oh, and it was nice to finally put a face with your name. On more a "stalker" related note, I know what your car looks like

Hey PQP, I talked to RC13 and if still want to split the hotel with us, thats fine with me, I don't have a problem with anything. Besides, it would be funny to make him sleep on an air mattress again

RC13 (Arcee13 ), are you still eating at my brothers restaurant tonight? I am freaking Jealous as Hell you get to hang out with him and I can't

Hey Noob, where you been buddy? I didn't see you Saturday, are you all ready in CA, I wasn't sure when you were leaving? My last exam for the semester is tomorrow afternoon so if your still around, a few guys may be over to hang out around 6pm Tuesday.

Well, back to studying

Bummer dude! That sucks. If you want to go to Botcon with us though

Friday I went over a buddy's house to watch the NHL draft after I got done studying, Sheri and Dave were both gone as well.

"Touchy" huh? As in "Touchy-Feely"

Well, I'll just say I hope you DON'T have the touch, and leave it at that

Seeing that pic really reminds me that Billy really is gone.

Quite some time ago he gave me a WST Megatron. I am bringin that to the movie with me so that he can go with me in some form.
