I picked it up at xtravacon last sunday. the ambush on ilum I think I saw on clearance, but its been a few weeks. the treachery on salu-whatever I only ever saw out at the Rhinelander Wal-mart. I'm glad they are around here somewhere.


Yeah I know I have seen Ambush on Ilum but I can't remember where (doh!). I think it might have been at the Okemos Target so I'm going to run out there later today.

Picked up an 'Endor AT-AT' for only $71 plus tax today.

How you might ask? Someone incorrectly marked it at $89.99 first (should be $99.99). Then I had a 20% off coupon. Good times, I now have two AT-ATs! (One from release in like '97).

I also picked up the comic two-pack Quinlon Vos and other Devorian dude...

Where did you get the coupon? :)

Oh yeah, K-Mart in Jackson has 4 of the Transformers pillows. They don't look all that great to me so I didn't buy one. They also had 4x Movie Preview Optimus Prime and Starscream on the top shelf above the Classics.

Jackson Target had a bunch of classics reduced, I added them to the sightings.

TRU sent me a coupon catalog (useless mostly) and that one that was worthwhile because I am such a GREAT customer! :P

yeah rc13 also got that 20% off coupon. it's probably only for you canton-ites.

JTK, most of those sets you can get for less than retail at the shows, since most of those guys probably get them at clearance.

Cool. I am going to try and make the next one, if not I'll snag them on eBay. I need to get Comic Pack #01 too and then start working on the tin sets. Once I have those I'll have the entire 30th line minus the Episode I-III vehicles and the SWTF's.

Sorry Boon, I got one as well. I also received a gift card good for $10 off my next purchase of $100 or more. I'll have to see if I will use that one or not. Maybe I'll pick up an extra guitar for Guitar Hero II and something else, there's no good TF's out right now I need.

depending on if there is a expiration date on the gift card, there is that really cool lego republic cruiser coming out. that one is 99.99.

well, I haven't been charged for botcon yet.
My schedule at work changed. I'm now going to Ireland twice. Once at the end of may for 2 weeks and once in july for 2 weeks. it doesn't interfere with Botcon thank God! since the schedule changed it now means I'm going to be around for the comic con in novi. I'll get home saturday afternoon, so I might go on sunday. we'll see. unfortunately, I'm going to be in Batesville, Arkansas for that week before the con :(

Arkansas, the Wal Mart mecca. They probably have WM's on every stocked to the sky with the exclusives.

Well, maybe you'll find a girl down there and you can sit on the porch of a shack with a banjo singing, "Well I met her on the CB, she said her name was Mimi... My fat baby likes to eat!" Family guy joke incase your wondering :grin:

jsmith is right though, Arkansas should be a Wallmart paradise. You'll probably be able to walk to 15 different stores in like 10 minutes.

Thanks!

I was worried he wouldn't have a Predaking. Would have been awkward to use someone else, like say Galactus :P

man, tfpredaking.. you're up to 30 posts!!! are you feeling okay? :grin: I guess I didn't think about there being a lot of walmarts in arkansas.. maybe I'll find a ravage finally. I'm pretty sure my toy hunting in Ireland will be non existant though... unless I find one of those Argos places that the UK'ers always buy their alternators at.

btw, Nantucket... absolutely no toy stores. But I did see a Jeep cherokee parked outside a bar with an Autobot sticker on the back.

it looked much cooler than my happenin' rental car... oh yeah baby!!! a Toyota Mini Van.. WHOOOOOO! why they gave me that, I don't know.... :-x

Look at you going all "soccer mom" on us. I guess RC13 pronounced as Arcee 13 fits even more than I thought :grin:

someone in my lab brought in TRU coupons for me. no 20% off though, only a $10 off $50. kinda weird.

are you using that minivan to its full potential on nantucket? gunning it at every light? checking out the rear dvd player?

well, there is no rear dvd player... and they don't have stop lights. a fact I didn't notice until you brought it up. In fact, you're lucky to get a stop sign on some streets. Cars just go and hope no one hits them as far as I can tell. it's definitely strange... as strange as the Mallard duck I saw swimming out to sea last night. I found it quite amusing for some reason. I didn't realize ducks liked saltwater... I figured they stuck to inland lakes and marshes..

I've been thinking about having some custom airbrushing done to my Outlook. It's Midnight Blue, a Decepitcon logo on the hood would look bad ass.

yeah, I guess I should have thought more before I post.. no offense meant to anyone here who drives a mini van... I just thought it was a weird car to have for a rental.. now, if I could have TF: The Movie playing on the dvd player all the time it wouldn't be so bad having a mini van.. alas, I have to settle for my video ipod... it has tf: the movie on it :grin:
