I'm guessing you have to register.

...And now I have to wait to be activated by the admin. I must vote!

You have to log in, or sign up first and then log in. Then the little voting devices become an option that you can click and then submit.

TT, I keep trying to register, but it won't allow me. Those stupid codes never seem to work when I try to register for a site.

Check the memberlist, you're on it. I also got an error message when I registered but I'm in there. It just won't let you log in until the admin activates you, according to the e-mail I got.

Yeah you have to bug the moderator a little, he/she took probably 2 or 3 days to activate mine.

However, there are some great pieces of art on there take a look. One of my favorites is a Crankcase piece, where he is sitting on Bruticus foot, the leg with Vortex, and messing with Grand Slam and other tapes.

It looks really good!

is it 5:30 yet?? :shock:

I'm ready to leave work. it doesn't help that I'm flying out to ireland on sunday.. kinda just want to get the flight over with.

to top it all off.. I'm re-reading Ultimate Spider-Man from the beginning.. some how issue 53 must have been put in my comic box out of order, so I don't have it with me. so I had to go from issue 52 to issue 54!!!!! OH THE HUMANITY!!!!! :grin:

actually, I hope I still have issue 53 and it didn't get thrown out or something.

so, I'm taking suggestions on which transformer should go to ireland with me. Probably has to be deluxe size. but I suppose voyagers aren't that much bigger...

I found the new Screen Battle sets at the Eastwood Wal-Mart. They had 2x of each. The Bumblebee from "Capture of Bumblebee" is gray instead of black.

The Scorponok from "Desert Attack" looks better too. I bought one of each although neither one is really worth the $20 price tag.

Movie only, or any kind?

I'm debating whether to take Barricade (to see the Mustangs) or (concept) Bumblebee with me tomorrow to the auto show :b

I can't believe the auto show's almost over :sad:

I'll have to say bye to all the gorgeous cars until next year. I still want to take the Jeep Renegade home with me XD

News Credits: 194 · Fri Jan 25, 2008 6:06 pm

any kind really. I actually brought classics rodimus and bumblebee home from work. probably will take those two.

Let's see... The Alternators in Lapeer were Ricochet and Rollbar but there were only the two and my friend snatched them up... Still, 95% of the time I find Alts, it's out there.

The TRU by Lakeside has about a bajillion Rescue Ratchets and Thundercrackers...

He did in my story because like starscream he thought he could be a better leader!

He gets no love

Because he sounds so angery...

I'm getting really tired of having to login pretty much every time I come to the forum, half the time I forget until I reply to a post.

Anyway, that pretty much kills my Saturday plans of going out there. What store were they found in? I still need a Rollbar.

Yeah, I'd assumed he'd found more since at least one other time we'd been out there, there had been piles. My Rollbar came from there too. It's the Walmart in Lapeer. My 'MP' Prime, my MP Starscream, at least two of my Alts, a ton of my Cybertron stuff (found in, like, October)... all came from that store. When those exclusive deluxe repaints show up, I'll be heading out there to get them.

Today I want to try to take a few pictures of my robo-armies, if possible. And also of the guys who've been lingering since childhood. Most of them are odd knock-offs that I just can't identify at all and I figure if anyone can, it'll be someone on the toys board. I just wish I could find their guns - I swear my mother gave me a little jar of them about a decade ago when I started college.

JT, I think I have Rollbar if you want one...

News Credits: 194 · Sat Jan 26, 2008 3:44 pm

well, apparently my car has a big bullseye on the back of it. I got rear ended AGAIN today! :-x

luckily there was no damage this time. I can't believe that's the 3rd time in a year!

Sat Jan 26, 2008 7:14 pm

Big score for me last night. Surprisingly enough, the Meijer on South Penn here in Lansing had a crap load of Landmine's, a couple of Clifjumpers, regular and FAB, and one Evac!

Happy Hunting!

I hope you're okay! I once got rear-ended twice within a year - second time was while stopped in a construction zone... was hit at about 40mph. Luckily my truck wasn't totalled (though I wasn't in good shape). Did get a new tailgate after that, though - one without a giant magnet in it. :grin:

I on monday got into a fender bender too while coming back from class. The streets were a mess with snow and I skidded I thought I was fine but then I felt someone get tapped.

finally found an allspark camshaft first strike prime and offroad ironhide at target friday. i pick up camshaft, but when i asked some dumbass kid if he could scan for more allspark figures he gave me some crap about it. they also had the new FABs also. i almost picked up smokescreen, but i picked up saw 4 instead.

this weeks TF comics were awesome.

Sun Jan 27, 2008 5:05 pm

Saw the new RGs today at the Canton Target, they had two each of them, I bought one Proton(The black Spy Shot repaint). They also had OR Ironhide, Evac, and FS Prime, as well as Cliffjumper x2, Landmine x4, Camshaft x3.

4: is the number of times my car has been rear ended.
4: is the number of trips I've made to Northern Ireland.

Yes, once again, I'm over in Moygashel, Northern Ireland. I landed about 2.5 hours ago. I am now "hard" at work at the Alpha group newspapers. Actually, except for getting set up on the network and reading an email, no work has actually been done. Which is fine by me, cos I feel Zombieville is fast approaching. I probably slept about an hour or two on the plane. I will try to keep up with posts on the site... although I doubt I'll have any sitings.. and if I do, no one will really care :grin:

oh yeah, it's also 6:30 am for all of you at home. Get out of bed!!!!! :grin:

Well if anyone cares about Operation Rescue Doc, this might be some useful information.

I have the old order form with 6 proof of purchases on it. I also bought 150 Battle Points on eBay. My concern was getting a total of 4 Doc figures when my proof of purchases were on the old order form so I emailed Hasbro and this was the response.

Hasbro Consumer Affairs wrote:Thank you for contacting Hasbro, Inc. We appreciate your interest in our product line.

In response to your inquiry regarding the Rescue Doc promotion, you can send both order forms in one envelope with one check.

I found the new Real Gears at the West Lansing Target this afternoon. I passed, mostly because the cards were pretty beat up and partly because I am getting tired of buying figures that have been repainted 3+ times in less than a year.
