Once again ready for the 'Con this weekend, I hope there is a little more buying this time around.

ah, your serach for the blue beast is finally over! i thought you would have taken your chances at the con this weekend first. at least he's out of the way.

What is this con you all are talking about?

Sweet. I may have to check that out, it's only an hour from here.

Barely any classics, apart from Minicons, over here by me.

Plus with the Captain N: The Game Master DVD coming out today, makes me wonder how long before that DVD shows up here.

you weren't kidding about the bids towards the end. that was some escalation. let us know how it is when you get it!

Wow! $41? Hey noob, looks like the guy has another one listed if you'd like to take a crack at it.

Dude! I didn't know they made a Gamera in this series!

thanks guys . my birthday did start off well with winning the nascar pool i am in. $33 dollars in my wallet . bought a classics cliffjumper and a LOC fireflight last night.



and if you guys could get ahold of the ML showdown figures (W3 and 4) do grab them for me i need all of them. thanks.

ionacus, i'll keep an eye out. hopefully some of the kbs will be more stock. nascar pool huh? did you also get your free fries from arbys?

JTK, just as a heads up, the convention is pretty small. there may be a total of 20 or so dealers with 2-3 of them being seibertronians. just want to moderate your expectations a little. that being said, you can get some great deals there sometimes, just have to keep a look out.

GM, i'll be moderating that auction, but if you're going to bid let me know. the price range is a little steep for me, not right now, but it will be

The Taylor WM had all of the new Sigma 6 Commandoes(the Grand Slam wave) and Soldiers(Firefly and Company) today, at least one of each. I would have picked up another Kamakura, but the paint apps were pretty messed up on him.

They also had 3 Classics Cliffjumpers, no Ramjets.

Happy Hunting.

Well, I'll be watching this one too but if it goes way high like the other one I was thinking about trying to get it from that site where I found it for $20. And if you see a bid from "magnusistaken", that's me.

will do. i'm a big fan of us not screwing up each others bids. this works out nicely.

you'll also be bringing some of your tax refund monies to buy us lunch at the con right? right?!

Hey, don't forget to bring that tech Deck Dude for me with you this weekend man. Even if i'm not that I'm sure PQP wouldn't mind holding onto it for me.

Also, Give me a call soon man. If you still want that ML 2 pack I have of Manderine and War Machine then let me know. Not trying to sell it anymore and i'll just give it to you straight up for 20$.

LMK.

tfpredaking and I noticed that the AA TRU had been restocked as of last night. They had 4 ramjets and two Jetfires. also, two 6" titanium rodimus primes. no reissue soundwaves. it was nice to see a TRU restocked though.

that was my fault guys. i picked up 2 SSs and rid primes for guys on the board. i know TFM was looking for a couple and TT too, but TT is all set now. i'll bring them to the con to distribute, just let me know who needs em.

TFM! that would be great. i'll be bringing a plethora of mingas. i think he's discontinued now with the new wave of tech deck guys.

*edit* one ss and rid prime left. if you guys don't need them, i'll have to keep them

I dunno how but most of the time we end up shooting the breeze around Andrew's/PQP's Table.

Other then that we don't really have a set spot to meet. Half of us are Vendors so just pic a spot and float wherever as you may.

I might be helping out PQP this weekend but nothing is set in stone. I was signed up to sell but I think i'm ganna have to pass this time around. I am considering trying to unload a Custom MP03 Skywarp there but odds are it'll just end up being sold online.

I'm ganna ask 250$ for it at the con but if it doesn't sell there then I guess it's destined to be sold online. (Prob get a better price for it anyway but I'd rather give my Fellow Michiganders a Discount first.)

TFM, actually what you might want to do is set up shop here on seibertron. at the trade place, you can also sell stuff like this, and if you've got good pictures of it, i'm sure you'll get some bites. at the con, it'll be pretty hard to sell an item like this just because it's not a focussed crowd.

1 pound of bacon ... yummm.

Alt Sunstreaker showed up today from hasbrotoyshop.com. He looks pretty. I might break down and free him from his plastic prison.

You are soooo a newbie and I don't mean your name.

Love ya bro but trust me, your not telling me something that I don't already know but the truth is it won't sell as well here as it would on my own site Transtopia (Wich is actually on seibertron.com's servers now) or on Ebay.

On Ebay it's a wider Audiance and I can plug my own site at the same time as well as get a better price there then anywhere else because it's bid on through secure transactions that protect both parties involved in the sale.

Besides, even if it doesn't sell it'll be a nice little "stop" sign for PQP at the con to make Buyers stop and inquire. Even if he doesn't sell, attraction might help sell more of his other items.

Trust me B-man. My post count may not be much higher then yours but i've been doing this for over a Decade making them and half a decade selling them. I know the ins and outs buy now.

But still, thanks for the advice man.

See you guys this weekend I hope!!!

TFM

went to the local TRU last night and found the clear skies and dirt digger minicons. dirt rocket(bike) and the grey plane steel wind suck. nightscream is my fav so far.

The Optimus Prime hand w/ Spike showed up today.

That thing was so not worth the money I spent on it. The hand is huge compared to the normal hands on 20th Optimus. I haven't opened the package yet but I just know it would like stupid with it attached to Prime.

It also doesn't attach to the arm like the energon axe, it fits over the arm.

Oh well, live and learn

damn JTK, that sucks. at the very least you could probably still unload it for a little less if you wanted to.

There were about 7 Ramjets, 6 Cliffjumpers, 3 Grimlocks, 2 Hot Rods and 5 Mirages at the Meijer on Dix.

Woo-Hoo!!! See youse guys at the con tomorrow!

God Magnus wrote:Woo-Hoo!!! See youse guys at the con tomorrow!

Ditto. I'm Psyched about meeting you guys. Or at least introducing myself. I was at the last con in January plus I've been to the last for Big Motor City Comic Con's so odds are I have seen you guys around. lol

damn, i just wish i could get to sleep.
