Well, because I haven't really liked much of Dark of the Moon, I've been buying some Lego sets. Just thought I'd let everyone know that TRU.com is going Buy one Get one 50% off. Not sure if it will work in the store, but I splurged last night and bought the City Habour and the TRU Exclusive Lego TRU truck. My girlfriend got the Mill Village Raid and the Prison Tower Rescue from the Kingdoms sets. they have free shipping for orders over $100. Plus you can sign up for some Amazon prime like thing that is "free" two day shipping. It's not quite free, but it's cheaper than their standard shipping and you get it in 2 days.

I was gonna mention that roadbuster was several k-marts in waterford. The only problem is that you need to put down first months and last months rent along with a 250 dollar deposit in order to afford it!!

You talking about HA Roadbuster, I assume? How much can be possibly be?

I didn't even realize that one existed until a couple days after I got the Deluxe. I suddenly must have it. The detail on the vehicle mode looks superb.

$33.00.

Is it just mine, or does IH have NO articulation. or at least workable artic. His arms are too bulky, his waiste doesn't swivel, his knees only bend with no swivel and his head doesn't move!! Tell me his head is stuck.....

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there. Be sure to take the kids shopping so you can buy toys for yourself. :evil:

Picked up Thundercracker today at the AA TRU, there were 3 left, no Laserbeaks. Lots of Kre-os except for the big Prime. Plenty of the rest. Still desire a Topspin.

Ah, forgot to mention that Southfield TRU got a whole bunch of KRE-O boxes in today.

I'm not goin' for them, but if any of you are local and interested, might wanna try to swing by soon. Not sure how fast they're gonna go.

Grabbed DOTM Whirl from Canton Walmart (no Tailpipe, and no other Whirls on racks).

Grabbed 2 x Warpath, and 1 x Scourge from Westland Warren Rd. Target. Still had 2 x Wheeljack, and 2 x Thundercracker, and 1 x Kup.

Still would like to grab Kre-O Optimus Prime (large), Sentinel Prime, and Starscream.

i picked up the jazz and basic BB ones. alot of work though.

West side Ann Arbor TJ Maxx had 2 RTS Perceptors, 1 G2 Prime and 1 each legends Prowl and Starscream. Too bad I'd already got them all ... at full price. At least I got a few cheap shirts.

Does anyone else notice problems with stress marks on their Kreons? The plastic looks too thin around the joints like it could crack. I'm getting a little scared to play with them too much.

Eight hours till Xtravacon! Come and buy a bunch of stuff or just be awesome and hang out!

News Credits: 1 · Sun Jun 26, 2011 4:06 pm

did anyone buy the HA autobot daredevil set from kmart? i would like to get more of the patches that came with the set. if anyone doesnt want them pm me or something and let me know.

Sun Jun 26, 2011 4:13 pm

Rargh.
Why do I never learn about XTravacon til too late? I didn't do a single worthwhile thing today, lol.

Oh wellll...

Sun Jun 26, 2011 4:40 pm

That was a good Xtravacon! Spent pretty much all my money, got a Thundercracker (and at this point, scalper prices = okay because I would have spent more in gas and whatever looking for one), got a ton of comics to read, ton of anime to watch, etc. Absolute best haul in ages!

Also got the Mega Man X8 guide for $2, which nearly made me cry. Cheapest copies online are about $20...

YES!
Went to Target tonight for groceries, also found a lone Leader Ironhide. Just pulled him out of the box... he's just as awesome as the pictures make him look.

I could stop collecting the DotM line right now and be totally content... though we all know that's not gonna happen.

New also, they had the Voyager Ratchet and Starscream, but I don't see any differences in their molds from RotF. Beyond that, they seemed to have everything we've seen so far. Target seriously is the go-to place for Transformers movie toys.

Kre-O? Just wondering if anything was added to displays since this week is movie week.

I haven't been looking for it, so I didn't notice. =/

Tue Jun 28, 2011 4:57 pm

alright so I got tickets for the early showing of DOTM tonight in Grand Blanc but my fiancee is feeling under the weather so she cant go. Which leaves me with an extra ticket. Been trying all my friends but they either work tonight or tomorrow morning. If you live around Flint and want a free ticket just pm me.

Tue Jun 28, 2011 4:58 pm

Also if you're going to the Grand Blanc imax and you want to meet a new face, let me know cause I'm reeeaaaally not looking forward to going by myself.
