NICE!

grabbed two more, because I'm an addict. Got Ultra Magnus and Bonecrusher. I'm not liking the Wave 3 design work as much as the ones from TF One. They seem... chunkier and clunkier.

Nice. I have the Sludges and Swoops myself, they're nice

So... um.. I have both terrible and awesome luck apparently. Went to Wally World and grabbed another four packs from series 3... Sideswipe was the only new one, got Slug (robot) and Bonecrusher again... so eh.. but then another Soundwave chase version... O.o

These ebay prices can't be right... are people really getting $40-50 for chase figures and 20-30 for regular ones?

Probably. Blokees have exploded in popularity and anything nowadays has a perceived value.

Guess I'm hitting up eBay then to sell my dupes and feed the new habit.

EDIT: Got another Sideswipe and my first Red Alert. They had the 06 Wave and I got Kickback and IDW Megs. Love both of those figures but the little Shrapnel that comes with kickback is so CUTE!

Action Eidtion Tarn and a leaked image of the box showing that he will come with a little Nickle.

I need to see how articulated Nickel is, I was preparing to sell my Super7 Tarn but keep Nickel, but I would reconsider depending on her complexity here

Oh Tarn looks amazing.

Has anyone had any luck with Blokee's customer service? My poor Galaxy Scavenger shipped without a face. Like I have the two main parts of his head and the visor, but no mouth.

EDIT: Heard back from them, if I'd bought it from their store they'd be able to help, I have to go to WallyWorld for an exchange. Yeah... not going to bother. They did say if Wal-Mart didn't help they would get involved, but seeing as these are all random, I'd rather not trade in Scavenger for another Slug or Bonecrusher. I'll sculpy out a face or something later. Remember kids, check for all your pieces before you assemble!

Leaked image of Galaxy wave 9. The first wave without a Optimus, or Optimus repaint character.

A more proper look at Galaxy wave 9.

Dang nice looking set

I find it odd that Springer has just his sword, but if he was only going to have one weapon that was the one to give.

I was thinking the same thing

I finally tried Blokees this month. I have IDW Prime, Dino Mode Swoop, and Dirge. I think they're exactly what I wanted with the scale and price. But I really wanted the blue IDW Optimus, he reminds me of Reverse Convoy...

Those $1.24 sales last week cleared out our Wal-Mart.

A lot of people had their orders cancelled.

They had them in stock locally, but I went in and they price matched to the app yesterday. Full set of wave 6 for $12.

How often do the waves come out? I am so behind..

It would only let me order 2 even though I had just come from the store and they had two unopened and one opened case sitting on the shelf.

My Galaxy 6 Journey has been... strange.
3x Autobot Megatron
2x Wheeljack
2x Dirge
2x Kickback
2x CHASE Optimus Prime
1x Bot Swoop

How do I have two of the chase Primes and still not a regular one?

Yeah mine would only let me order 4 through the app which is why I went in. I grabbed the 9 from an unopened case, they rang up at the $5 a piece and I got the very nice self-checkout monitor to help me out after I showed her the price on the app. Since it wasn't online only, they price matched all of them.

That was lucky. Last time I did a price match to the website they said they couldn't do more than a couple dollar.

Even at 3 something a box that's a steal and I'd have taken it.
