It's TF restock day at the Denham Walmart. Spotted 1 Roadbuster & 2 Skybytes. Looks like they had an old Generations wave hiding (Skywarp, Scoop...) I don't know which wave this is but they have the AoE wave with Lockdown. 2 Lockdowns if anyone is interested. A bunch of other assorted AoE stuck appears to have been restocked as well. Still no new Legends though.

Speaking of Lockdown. I don't collect the movie stuff, but I'm on the fence with Lockdown. I like the car mode but I'm pretty meh about robot mode. Would anyone recommend him?

I've yet to see a Jetfire in the wild. Seen a few Roadbusters and his wave mate here and there. I just picked up Roadbuster the other day. He is a little in the simple side, but his weapons are a lot of fun. Now I just need to gather the courage to tackle the sticker sheet O_o

I'm feeling ya on Arcee and Brainstorm. I'll also be on the look out for Chromia and Windblade. Love me some fembots!

If you have Kmarts look out for Jetfire. That is where he is popping up.

Spotted two Jetfires at the Kmart in Gonzales. Bishop was right.

Neat looking figure, but out my budget right now. Would anybody say he is worth the price of admission?

Yes I think he is completely worth it.

Spotted 2 Voyager Slogs and 3 Voyager Drifts at the Walker Walmart. They had a few Gears and Acid storms as well.

I totally talked a grandma out of buying the last Jetfire at the BTR TRU for her five year old... he just wanted jets so I convinced her it'd be more fun to buy Generations Starscream, Thundercracker and the minicons... what... don't judge me. On the other hand, Jetfire!

Also, the new Walmart on Burbank is overflowing with Sky-byte, Roadbuster, Acid Storm and Gears. Happy hunting!

I judge not. Besides who buys a 5 year old a $50 tiny plastic giant robot?

So what do you think about him?

I won't judge either. Honestly, the kid might enjoy multiple new toys as opposed to just 1 (massive) toy.

Regarding "who" buys a 5 yr old these toys... ummm... I was 5 once and it's been about, oh, 30 years being a fan because a parent (Optimus, Metroplex), godfather (Voltron diecast set), or other relative purchased these for me.

You know that wasn't even a rant; it was nostalgia to start my day off. Happy Sunday everyone! And happy hunting.

This is serious business guys, it's not like we are talking about toys designed for children or something...

by **necr0blivion** » Sun Oct 05, 2014 12:21 pm

For the children!

Jenga? I'm guessing you stack em up and knock em over with the bird-mobiles? That could be fun.

I don't remember how old I was when I first got transformers and I'm too lazy to do the math, but what always gave me fits was putting on the damn stickers. Hell, I still haven't gotten the courage (read that as willing to put the time into) to put the stickers on Road buster yet.

Probably the same reason I haven't placed a reprolables order.
