I genuinely tried to get an extra Firebolt that I would have sent over in the usual fashion, the seller only had the one set left. Sorry mate

It's ok, it's the thought that counts.

Only figure I picked up so far.
RID Arcee...here's my custom paint on her. Looks way better if you ask me.

Everyone says how hard she is to find, and I've seen like 5 in the past week.

Watermark is mine from deviantart.

She's only one per case, in Waves 2 & 3, so I dread to think how many Bees you must have seen!!

Nice work on the highlights too...

I don't think there's been a retail sighting yet, I got mine from a specialist e-tailer...

All US carded tho', so it's just a matter of time....

Finally managed to grab Ratchet off TRU.com and it arrived this weekend. Yay! A First Edition Bumblebee from HTS arrived over the weekend too.

Got sick of hunting for Soundwave and ratchet. I can't count how many time i saw that puzzled look on a workers face as they came out of a back room only tell me they didn't understand how those figures had been pulled from all the boxes in the back. I order mine today from amazon $30 shipped. That's cheaper than i could have picked them up from toys r us

Once you've factored in time and fuel, the online premium, doesn't seem that bad, especially for shortpacked stuff. Still, nothing beats the thrill of finding new toys on a store shelf....

True. Even better if unexpected!

Just picked up RiD Arcee. I must say, it's better than the FE version. Maybe it's the giant gun, or just better posing, but this one is better.

by **PumpkinSwirl** » Wed Apr 11, 2012 1:45 am

Will Arcee be easier to get as time goes on? I'm wanting one pretty badly.

News Credits: 36 · by **Pretender Skywarp** » Wed Apr 11, 2012 3:37 am

She's one per case in Waves 2 and 3, she's not in wave 4, I don't know if she'll show up later...

I finally got Voyager Megatron today! His right arm is way too lose for that BAFG he has though and it kind of upsets me. Oh well, I guess I'll just have him hold it on his left arm or whatever.

You could use the super glue trick on it.

I'll need to find some.

What part of the arm do you put it on exactly? The ball piece or the inside of the arm itself?

I don't think it really matters. I usually put it on the ball and pop the limb on and keep moving it for about 30 seconds. Then I take it off and let it fully dry before I reattach it.

I was at Walmart yesterday and seen Arcee but I didn't have but $5 on me so I couldn't get her. I stuffed her behind a bunch of old Dark of the Moon figures then came back and got her today lol

they only had one Arcee but they had a lot of Ratchet and Bumblebee. I also stopped at Kmart and it was pretty pathetic. They didn't have anything besides a few bothshots, ultimate prime, DOTM deluxes that no one wants, and that Deluxe prime with trailer thing. For some reason they stocked the Prime masks but not the figures smh

My curiosity got the better of me a few posts back and now I'm the proud owner of that sneaky Brit's doubles:

Deluxe Bumblebee
Deluxe Hot Shot
Deluxe Knock Out

With an AllSpark on a string as a bonus. Maybe I can hook it up on my phone

In my local TrU, FE Cliffjumper was restocked. I bought him again to keep him sealed. THIS time, I'm not selling him.

Very true. I wasn't expecting to see any Transformers Prime toys here in Korea but I found the Cyberverse series 2 commander class toys, Voyager Megatron and Optimus Prime and the Bumblebee/Starscream two pack. I know the Legion class are available and I'm picking them up at the weekend. There are loads of the Bumblebee/Starscream two packs here. I may stock up a bit for the future.

For show, here is my current collection

Well, today, TrU have a 30% sale on --almost-- all Transformers. So, I went to look for more FE. Of course, only Bumblebee was left. LOTS of bumblebees. Oh well, even if I paid 7$ more for my last FE Cliffy, at least, I have it.

30% off on all TF? I had a hunch. I took one of the WAY OVERPRICED Star Wars Crossover Scout (Obiwan). It checked on the scanner at 13$. No sale no how. I went to the register with it. Scan at 13$+taxes.
I say: "Y NO 30% OFF?!"
Wait for it...................
Once again, the announced price don't match the scanned price so I got mysel a FREE SW Xover Obiwan because of that dear Québec law!

Honestly, why they are so expensive? They should not be more expensive than standard Cyberverse Commander figures. And that Obiwan is litterally a bot with a spaceship on his back. I'm glad to had him for free. But even at 10$, I would have had serious buyer remorse.
