Got any pics?

On a slightly TF related note...went to the Autoshow the past two weekends and GM had their Autobot/Bumblebee edition Camaro out to play with :) Of course, I couldn't resist:

Haven't found any new noteworthy TF's lately. Anxious to get my hands on HA 'Cade 8)

God, I want that car. Given that my last one is smashed, at this point I'll take just about any car, but that is so very on the top of my list.


I'm with you on the HA Barricade. That's the only thing I'm checking for lately. I keep seeing HA Skids, but meh. He can wait, if I even get the Twins at all.
I thought it'd be cool to have both Sam and Mikaela, but eh. We'll see.

I checked the Ann Arbor TRU at 11, and Arcee and Ratchet weren't out. They did have shockwave and jazz mighty muggs, plenty of the insecticon and percepter reissues, and a couple of the BB/SW sets though. I'm really hoping for these guys to hit soon...

stopped by the AA TRU. No new animated. they said someone else was in earlier looking for them. Universe Voyagers and Ultras, Animated Leaders and the Pinkimus Prime were all on clearance. there were a few Infernos and Vector Primes for 9.98. I checked the TRU exclusive ultras. they were still 29.99. of course... I've never seen a TRU exclusive go on clearance.

yep they run $32 bucks. and in my opinion worth it. its suprisingly sturdy. everything hooks together real nice. even the individual bots are pretty good for legend class figures

Only noteworthy sighting today was at the Ford Rd. (Canton) Walmart, where in the clearance toy aisle, all Masterpiece Skywarps were marked at $30. So I'll be returning the one I bought last month for $60 :) They had about a dozen and all were pretty good paint apps.

Was able to pick up legends Volt(saw the new legends Arcee, etc) from Walmart on Shaver in KZO. After seeing here that Legends Devastator was out, I went to the Walmart on Gull Rd and found five. Four are left. No animated Arcee or Ratchets at TRU in KZO.

Man, I want one.
I'm hoping the price will drop a little bit more though.

Probably won't.
I'll wait too long and lose it, just like always.

no way you'll beat 30...I should buy another just to make my cost per 45...rather than one for 60. :-?

Checked AA TRU and Michigan Ave Target in Canton. Nothing new. Novi apparently got Arcee and Ratchet. still not down here yet though. I do have a big box of transformers goodness coming from BBTS on thursday. I have MP-01B, Missile/Rifle add on for city commander, black MP Magnus rifle and the 3rd Encore tape set. can't wait to get my hands on that Prime :grin:

I got the prime and the add on too. Prime is awesome, is that add on the one with the flag and new head? Anyway, the head in that set is horrible....too small...but the rest of it is well worth it. I'm looking forward to a few of those pre-orders out there. The Bruticus from fp looks awesome too. They should head up development over at hasbro.

The city commander add on is the Missiles/rifle from Fansproject. I didn't go for any of the other city commander stuff. I like the original head. I did pre order both of the bruiticus sets. those look awesome.

I got my big box of Transformers goodness from BBTS this morning. MP-01B is really nice. tight joints and tight chest plates. My Magnus had a very loose chest plate. the encore tapes are cool. I've never had Overkill and haven't had Rumble and Frenzy since I was little. And since I don't read Japanese, Rumble is blue and Frenzy is red!!!! :grin: I wish I would have remembered to bring City Commander to work so I could give him is new missile launchers and gun. will have to wait until tonight. Still haven't seen Arcee or Ratchet at the AA TRU. Don't know if I want to stop 3 nights in a row.
