Illinois Transformers Sightings
Re: Illinois Transformers sightings
We still planning on a get together soon?
No new sightings in my area and local Walmart toy sections were destroyed today.
So I will assume nothing new until they restock at a minimum

Not a problem! Glad I could help out a fellow Seibertronian from Illinois. Thanks for participating on Seibertron.com.

Thanks to Matt Booker's Kmart sighting that he emailed us earlier today, I lucked out and found two complete sets at the Kmart in Des Plaines, IL. And ol' Primus must've been watching out for me as well ... I got them for Kmart's sale price of $7.99 each since they weren't in Kmart's computers yet. Guess we know which figures I'll be doing galleries of next!

I want to transform them first to make sure that their heads are all OK for the site's galleries. After I do that, they're yours since you asked first.
Are you still looking for Cliffjumper, Thunderwing, and Skullgrin? I told you $15 for those (which is what they came out to with shipping from BBTS), but since I got the Reveal The Shield figures on sale (which comes out to $35 including tax), I'll do all 7 figures for $80 (which is about $11.50 a figure).
I just have one big favor to ask -- help me recruit some more Illinois people here through word-of-mouth. Don't get yourself banned elsewhere, but we could use some more dedicated people like yourself here. If that sounds like a deal to you, then they're yours. Only catch is figuring out how to get them to you.

Ooh, I'm running out there to-night! Need milk anyway. Prob only getting Jazz and Tracks. Fallback is a great mold, but I'm trying to show some restraint. Thx for the heads-up!

None left at the Des Plaines Kmart. I tried calling you earlier to see if you wanted them the moment I walked out of the Kmart, but no answer. Dahpadre spoke up first for them.
Maybe the one on Grand and Mannheim or Irving Park and Harlem might have them still?
Or maybe they're getting more than 1 case in stock at all stores?

I just saw your post about the other board member in need of figures. I'd hate to take seconds if somebody didn't get firsts. So if the other member wants them by all means please!

Ok, just called Hip-Hoptimus Rime to see if he wants the set of 4. I don't want to break up the set because I don't want to get stuck with Mindset and Fallback.
@dahpadre: I'm out by O'Hare so if you're able to come out this way on Monday or Tuesday, I can hook you up with a set of the Generations figures.

Ok, cool the generations figures will be fine with me. If I come up by O'Hare it would have to be Thursday if that is ok with you.

Thursday doesn't work for me. If you guys want these figures, I want to get rid of them by tomorrow because I've got a real busy week coming up. If it doesn't work out, no big deal.

I know today is a so/so day for me. I have a ton of family stuff to do today, and I can't commit to a time. If we can't work things out today, then I understand you have to do what you have to do.

Ryan, I'll have to pass on the full set of 4 for now (have to renew the tags on our van), but thanks for the offer. Please get them to a good home.
It's funny, both times you called me yesterday I was getting my son down to sleep- phone was on vibe, no big deal, just a funny coincidence.
FWIW never made it to KMart, actually. Thx again, looking fwd to the galleries.

I have the following figures that I'd prefer to sell as a set for $80.
Thunderwing
Cliffjumper
Skullgrin
Special Ops Jazz
Turbo Tracks
Mindset
Fallback
I'm unavailable after Tuesday for a few days to work out anything so I want to have all of these have a home spoken for by tonight with a meetup by tomorrow or Tuesday. If not by then, I'd like to offer them to the Seibertron.com staff or put them up on eBay.
They're available to whoever can get me the money the soonest and can meet up with me later tonight, tomorrow or Tuesday near the general O'Hare area.
Do you do something with Hockey? Where at?

Re: Illinois Transformers sightings
I' dbe able to buy just the Jazz and Tracks as I have the others that I want and I would be able to meet up with you today, but being hard on cash, those are the only 2 I could buy.

I'm an assistant trainer/massage therapist with the Rockford AHL team- the Blackhawks affiliate.
I'm game for the whole set, but like I said, I'm last in line. Others asked first so definitely give them priority.

First-Aid's going to get the figures (driving out here from Rockford), picking them up tomorrow. Sorry I couldn't respond earlier, I was watching my daughter, my wife works over night tonight from 6pm to 6am. I've got you saved in my phone so I'll be sure to add you to my call list when I see new figures.

Crystal Lake KMart has one Highbrow. Nothing else interesting, sadly. Same for Crystal Lake Target and TRU too.

Just met up with First-Aid at the Rolling Meadows Walmart to give him the 7 RTS / Generations figures he bought from me. Nice to finally meet him after all of these years. He found the PCC Constructicons and Dinobots there. He got both and I got the Constructicons. No more at this store.
