Check the sightings section man :)

Charlotte WalMart had 3 a week or two ago as did the Ionia Kmart I think. I don't usually post older finds here, just in the sightings section.

I had a boxed/complete Energon Omega Supreme for sale for the longest time! A guy finally bought it off of me two Extravacons ago. I'll be sure to keep an eye out, let me know if you have a preference(loose, etc). I do believe that I saw a couple of loose ones at the last con.

On another note(teehee) I found Movie Deluxes today at the Dearborn Target. I picked up Brawl, Bonecrusher, Jazz, and Swindle, missed Barricade, Bumblebee, Wreckage and Skorponok. Wreckage and Barricade are the only two that I want right now. There were one each Swindle and Bonecrusher left.

I'll post some opinions on them in a day or so, I have class until late tonight, so probably won't be until after work tomorrow. If anyone has a want list that they want me to keep for them, PM me and I'll pick up whatever, as long as I'm reimbursed fully. Only about two more weeks!! Can't wait to get Prime and Blackout. :grin:

Also, I have a complete set of G1 Dinobots on the way, won them off ebay. They are loose, near-mint, and 100% complete, including instructions and specs! The set was expensive, but completely reasonable for the entire set. Now I can knock those off my G1 list. Next, more Head/Target/Powermasters!
I told the fire to go **** itself, and it did.

Actually, a loose Omega is not a bad deal as long as it is mint or near mint and has instructions.

As for the movie TF's... NOOOOOO! Looks like I will have to make my way back out to Dearborn to check out some stuff. Maybe I will swing by Brighton too.

Don't waste your time on Jackson, they have nothing new Transformers related.

I did snag a black suit Superman and Steel from the Jackson WalMart though :)

Hey Man hows it going? When RC13 gets back we need to hang out again!

What do you still need G1? I have a ton of extra complete G1 fig's I've wanted to sell for some time but I'm too lazy to list on ebay. Everything from Jetfires to combiners. Not many extra things past the 3rd year except for Piranacon, Computron, and Abominus. Many of them are in incredible shape with almost perfect stickers, especially the 4th year combiners. No head masters or target masters I can think of though.

Let me know and maybe I can bring them by your place sometime so you can check them out.

I'll check this weekend when I get a chance to excavate myself into my toy room (Noob's seen it, it's a disaster :sad: ). It's not on my sell list, but I don't remember selling one to my buddy Kevin from Mirages boxes. I have a complete one displayed on my 2rd year decepticon shelf, and another in the Giftset box, but I can't remember if the others are 100% complete.

I off loaded about $600 worth of extra G1 stuff to Kevin last year before Botcon which was nice, because when RC13 and I showed up to the hotel room we were splitting with him, he handed me cash :grin: :grin:

Just popping in to say hey. I don't think I'll be getting any movie Transformers. Probably just Optimus and Megs. I'm really unimpressed.

Awesome! Yes we have to hang out again soon. 8)

Here is some of what I'm looking for(I can PM you a complete list soon, I prefer all of them to be loose/complete C8+):

Bumblejumper
Bruticus
Octane
Broadside
Sky Lynx
Galvatron
Cyclonus
Scourge

I got to open the movie figs last night. They are definitely...different.

Jazz: Major disappointment. Cheap plastic, bad proportions, boring colors, and the arms are absolutely terrible. Maybe he'll grow on me after I see him in the film, but right now he's the only one I would highly recommend passing on, or at least wait for the redeco.

Brawl: Much better. Sweet tank mode, interesting transformation, stocky and imposing bot mode. I do seem to have a problem keeping his shoulders clipped into place, but it isn't anything that detracts from posablity or look. His arms are a little short, but otherwise I like him. Moderately recommended.

Bonecrusher: Weird but still pretty cool. Nice alt mode, interesting transformation, very ugly bot mode, but ugly in a cool, alien way. He has the most origional feet I've ver seen on a TF, makes a nice display piece. Moderately recommended.

Swindle: My favorite of the four, suprisingly, because I didn't think I'd like him at all. Great alt mode, cool transformation, nice coloring, different but neat at the same time. Strangely articulated, but still gets the job done. Would make a nice troop-builder, he has a very drone-y presence. I recommend him the most overall, of the four that I have so far.

So, there you have it. I'm still on the lookout for Barricade and Wreckage, if anyone in the area finds extra, I would appreciate a pick-up.

Okay, back to work.

The Meijer in Allen Park is open now, but don't bother checking there for anything, all their stock is from almost a year ago. They did have the last Cybertron Voyager assortment out(Soundwave, Quickmix, D. Crumplezone, GF Vector Prime), TIT Scourge, Jetfire, and Optimal Optimus, and Classics Deluxes(the Ramjet wave). Other than that, Meijers still sucks as usual.

It just kills me how a store that just opened yesterday has last year's stock on the shelves...

Meijer in Dewitt that opened a few weeks ago was exactly the same.

Probably between $70 and $90 depending on which one I decide to sell. I have one that looks like its brand new right out of their packages, and another thats probably a C-8. I've been trying to decide over the last 2 years which one to sell. Do I sell the C-8 one, or sell the cherry one and make more money on it. I think I have a full set of extra card backs for them that would be included and the intructions. No extra Sureshot box though.

Man, this will force me to work on my toy room this weekend. Maybe Noob and RC13 can help me :???:

I have an extra Bruticus, Sky Lynx and Broadside. I think I allready sold the Octane.

I just remembered the Comic Con is this weekend. Because I have to work all day Sat and RC13 doesn't get back from Arkansas till Sat, we are going on Sunday. I probably won't be able to excavate my toy room until the following weekend.

I need to look for the Devastor, Computron, and these for you PQP. Got it. I'll try to get these all out and let everyone know asap.

Thanks for the interest!
