I read that too. Guess I'll pop in the Walmart on Vets too to see if he's shown up there if I don't see him at TrU.

I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).

Too late, I'm just getting back to my desk from a lunch break in Metairie. Like you said, TrU didn't have anything new in the way of Transformers, but I wanted to pick up a few Amiibos (Link, Sheik, and Toon Link). I happened to see two Sonic Amiibos. I heard he's rare, so there's that.

Are you grabbing them as figures are do you use them?

I'm just curious how that works. From what I understand; they unlock some in game stuff and they save your progress.

Personally, I'm using them as display pieces. I only got the Legend of Zelda crew (Zelda, Sheik, Link, and Toon Link). I'll most likely get Gannondorf when/if he's ever released.

I know you can train them in Smash Bros (Wii U or 3DS) some kind of way, but I'm not sure how. I may end up giving it a try just for shits and gigs because I main Sheik.

Several of them unlock weapons in hyrule-warriors as well. Links spinner may be the best weapon in the game and is an ambitious exclusive.

I found the trick to posting from phones. Set the pic quality to VGA. Those usually are small enough to post here.

Wait, so the Smash Bros Amiibos unlock things for Hyrule Warriors? That's pretty cool. I've been meaning to pick up Hyrule Warriors, actually. All the DLC looks awesome too.

All Amiibo interact with Hyrule Warriors in some ways, some just generate rupees, but they all have some interaction. Typically the Zelda and Fire Emblem characters will unlock weapons.

On topic, found Legends Huffer, Powerglide, and Blackjack at BTR TRU. Still one of each left on the pegs.

ALso, nabbed a 1-step changer Fix-it. He'll be my only purchase of this line, and I already want to weather him to tone him down a bit.

Speaking of KMart. I was at the one in Gonzales (which I think may be on its way to closing) and they had a few odd and end TF stuff on clearance (most of the store was on clearance). Not sure if any other KMarts are clearancing TF figures or not, but may be worth a quick check.

I also noticed their TF stock was down to just a few pegs and no real shelf space.

Crazy, that one always seems dead and half the store is clearanced. All the video games are on clearance and there isn't even a home for them any more.

Got me...

Behold... not quite Menasor!

Image

With Blackjack (barely holding on... any fixes?)

Image

With paint apps I gave him this morning... need to seal it with a clear acryllic. You know I can't stand those boring chest pieces with all of their great molded detail.

Image

Alternate leg configuration. The one I used on prime isn't as stable with this mold, plus I like the look of the wheels for Menasor.

From what I've read, blackjack is just loosey goosey. Maybe flip him around?

Haven't gotten mine yet to play around with.

from what I can see, his pegs are slightly bigger than 5mm... guess it's time to try painting the insides of them.

They are not, he is floppy. Of course I did see another configuration of blackjack with his legs hanging down (looks for the image)..

BTR is mostly dead. LOTS of Legends at Seigen Ln TRU including power glide, huffer, and blackjack, along w/ Wave 1 deluxes. Seigen Target, Wal-mart are all dead, College Wal-mart is empty, Burbank Wal-mart the same. I did nab the Megaman Amiibofrom the College Dr gamestop, but had to ask for it. They had sonic as well, they "only allow the worthy to purchase them."
