Good luck, I'm not that eager to find it. It looks cool, but movie toys have just kind of sucked the life out of me. I need something else.

That's because we have some lazy non-contributors, out there pretending to have lives. Get on your butts, log in, and start typing you guys. You know you have nothing better to do.

Ugh, fine. I'll post more nonsense. Preparing stuff for eBay is getting boring anyway.

Hey, does anybody know of any comic stores that stock Minimates? I can get them from Back to the Past but I don't really want to buy cases.

Last thing I knew COMIC CITY used to get them, but not sure anymore. Nonsense?

Just a joke about the nonsense, being that I'm one of the guys that doesn't post every day. As far as Comic City goes, I checked the one in Canton today and they didn't have any. I'll probably just go with the BBTS route. Their prices on them are good and they do sets with the variants.

doesn't target get in minimates sometimes?

and weird places like suncoast? or was that only for the battlestar sets

The Target ones are usually exclusive repaints from the Marvel sets and DST has a really hard time getting them to Target as quick as they want them. In fact, a couple recent Target exclusive sets were cancelled because of that. Suncoast takes forever to stock them and they mark 'em up about 30%.

The South Lansing Target had 18 Target Exclusive G1 Starscreams and 5 G1 Jazz last night.

The South Lansing Kmart had nothing! The West Lansing Wal-Mart had a few Classic Jetfire but other than that it was pretty bare.

jtk, you should buy them all and sell them on ebay per the scalper rules

btw, i'm glad that in our corner of the fandom we helps each other out. from getting all the hard to find stuff, to giving heads up on sales and just keeping up with the 'important' news.

and for little indy clix figures

HAHAHA! I should do that!

I think the worst thing I have done on eBay was buying 5 of those Classic Devastator sets I found on clearance and selling them on eBay for MSRP. I made about like $15 per set.

It sucks I sold those before you guys wanted them and when I went back some other person bought the other 40 sets and made a ton.

Then you guys ended up paying MSRP on the ones I bought in Fort Wayne.

No worries, man. I was happy to get the ones that I did get, they never even showed at any of the WMs here. Neither did Alts Rumble/Ravage.

It was right about then that hunting started to suck.

WE NEVER SAW Alts Rumble/Ravage in our area...that just sucks...makes me worry a bit about StarScream

Indeed it makes me worry A LOT about MP Starscream. I really do not want to have to pay BBTS's $95 for one!!!

JT no worries we made a trade for a set that was more than fair.

Thats why I really think we are all really going to have to try and look out for each other....

Don't sweat it, we will get MP Starscream

Even if I have to make a trip to Fort Wayne and bring back a truckload!

TRU in Okemos had 4 sets of the Legends 6 Packs at $24.99 each. I passed but I took pictures if it's a first find!

I went to Radioshack today and *gulp* bought the XMODS Barricade (and accessory pack, well worth it) and the Concept Bumblebee.

I love Barricade, he's fast as hell and the flashing lights rule.

^^I'm down.^^

Yes, gentleman. The stakes are higher now...I'm for doing whatever I can to help strengthen our network. It's war, I tell you.

And tfpredaking is a BASTARD for finding Dropkick today. I'm am so jealous right now.

But Todd grabbed me a Leader Brawl today. I have only one thing to say to the both of you:

"YA TOOK MEH JEBB!!!" (Djitka jow!)

I haven't found a thing TF since the release date. Maybe I should just semi-retire like TT24 and let the busy bodies do all of the work.

I've trained you all well, now go, pillage the retail landscape, take all you want and bring me only what I need. Cruel Leonidas wants you to stand, all I ask as that you kneel...

I couldn't have said it better. Where did Chad find Dropkick? I guess I missed that post...

He hasn't posted it yet, Todd called when he found Leader Brawl, and that's how I found out. I'm picking on him. they said that the only one not there was Recon Barricade.

It was a Target in Ann Arbor, I can't remember which one.

I'll certainly keep an eye out for you.

Interesting, looks like Flint target got dropkick and longarm from the sightings thread....wondering if this means there was a few deluxes that went out last night?
