Speaking of Grimwing, I do have him, so because I am getting this guy, he is now on Kijiji for the price I bought him off Rodimus (just to be fair and to sell him quickly).


Grimwing had a very, very ugly color scheme to begin with. that's why I bought Darksteel instead. Plus, he was 20$ instead of 30$. However, I despite the mold. He will be thrown into storage. Another I always refused to buy, no matter how great the repaint or the deal is BH Skystalker.
One BH repaint of the go line that wouldnt mind owning is Predaking and Razorclaw's. I'll just have to keep my eyes open for more deals.

Close but no cigar. It was actually a TOY-SWAP that I bought. I really hoped it was a Beast Wars figure inside. Instead, it was just a piece of garbage. I DID manage to return it. And even at 5$ I didnt want to buy the real one.

BTW, if you happen unto some Beast Wars lot for cheap, I could trade you some stuff for it. I kinda devlopped a liking to the beasties.

I still feel the burn by that lost gamble. :P

BTW, please do look out for BW stuff. You are a way better Kijiji hunter than me and you know your BW stuff.

I think you could use a RiD Scourge or Nemesis Prime with armor at some point. :)

Here's what he had to say:

In store only of course.

Why do you say it like its a fact? I want the movie but I was not willing to spend the price they were asking for. I will wait for the blu ray to drop to 10$ or something before I buy it on amazon like I do with all my other blu rays.

Heck, I went out and bought it brand new. I didn't wait for a ridiculous sale or a bunch of coupons. This is a steal for a good movie.

But, to each their own. *shrugs* I'd go and see it in theaters again if it were playing.

Yeah, I want to buy the movie so much, I camped for a week at the store's entrance for the release day|||
...Or not.

Will, you are being a bit too generous. I will wait for the 5$ bargain bin.
I will buy it, for collection's sake, but only when it will be in desperate clearance.

I only watch movies at the theaters with the exception of watching Transformers on the computer in super HD.

I was able to buy this on amazon.co.jp this morning: http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B00OJRBZS6 This is their exclusive Blu-Ray set with the really nice camo-deco Voyager Hound included. Came out to $51.27 shipped which is a fantastic deal for that toy.

Because it's technically a "media" item, it will ship to the US. Not sure about other countries. Wish they'd ship the toy-only listings here too!

So, this is INSANE.

Sentinel's Megazarak figure is on sale at HLJ for 9000 Yen, a whopping 80% off the original retail price. That's about $75 USD (shipping will put you back, though):

Yeah, shipping is just about the same amount as the figure in this case. Still an amazing deal to whoever wanted this figure and has the space.

My situation is a double whammy; I both want it and don't have the space. Off to the storage unit he'll go, I suppose.

Had no trouble with it. Do you have Prime? If not, maybe the Global stuff is a Prime benefit?

Hmm. My account isn't Prime, but my wife's is. I'll see if she can hook me up. ;)

Yeah, shipping is just about the same amount as the figure in this case. Still an amazing deal to whoever wanted this figure and has the space.

My situation is a double whammy; I both want it and don't have the space. Off to the storage unit he'll go, I suppose.


Keep reminding yourself it's hollow.

Sentinel's Megazarak figure is on sale at HLJ for 9000 Yen, a whopping 80% off the original retail price. That's about $75 USD (shipping will put you back, though):

Is that a point against it (not as much plastic as you might want) or for it (it's hollow, so stick some other toys in there!)?

Depends on how you look at it. You can't put toys in it, and for the original retail price it's made of vinyl and has no heft to it.
