jtk: no reason to feel left out. the only stuff i am getting is OLD stuff since i'm late to the game. there's really not much new out there.

tt: digicams are so cheap these days it's amazing. you can get a great camera (6mp) for about $100. that being said, i only have a junker camera as well and 2.5 years old. did you do some donuts in the mustang?

the lego line that i've been buying sporadically is exoforce. i just love the little anime guys with funky coloured hair.

i will pick up the four pack of troopers though.

Hey not sure if you guys are looking for them but there are a ton of the Ultra Magnus/Skywarp two packs at the new Target in Allen Park. One of them was mismarked at 9.99 so I picked it up. No other Mismarks though.

Anyone see any of the Titaniums Soundwave or Rodimus?

I have seen a few Soundwaves at Toys R Us in Okemos/Jackson and a few at WalMart. I have only seen one Rodimus and he was at WalMart. I got mine from BBTS quite awhile ago.

how does the mismark actually work then? do they just honour the sticker price?

there's a rodimus and a soundwave at the walmart by me, but that's a little trek for you. i don't think they're going to stop shipping them though, i mean target hasn't gotten any yet.

Yeah most of the time they will honour the sticker price. Sometimes they won't do it depending on the item. How long of a trek?

I feel like it's a trek and I don't live far away. Maybe once a month, I'll come home a different way (94 instead of 14) and get that Walmart and the Belleville in one sweep.

I know digicams are cheap these days. In fact I read that on another thread. It's not an excuse, I'll get one soon, maybe after I am done paying off these vintage japanese G1's...

Snow days over, now it's like any normal day... :? That was fun putting the LEGO imperial landing craft together. Cool little features too! Look ma' I'm playing engineer!!! That's about as close as I can come to being mechanically inclined. :-(

I'm getting the itch to try to put a War within LEGO Prowl together... I tried once before and failed miserably. Yes, I want it to transform which makes it really difficult. Trying to make any good robot mug out of LEGOs is really hard too.

i have 2 or 3 different toy run routes but the most common brings me out to the canton area. there aren't really any good walmarts in my search area which is unfortunate.

picked up another minga the other day. if anyone else on the board needs one let me know.

man, pistons are being abused by the spurs.

I stopped by the Ypsi/Arbor wal-mart. found 1 Ramjet!!! TT, thanks for the offer! but I don't need it now. they had two Titanium 6" Rodimus Primes and 3 Soundwaves. I also picked up the Royal Guard TIE interceptor at target.

I have not seen them, yet, but if the first wave was any indication, Meijer should have them first.

The DB Hts Target had a Classics Jetfire today, as of about 11:30am. No Ramjet or Cliffjumper. Nothing else to report.
I told the fire to go **** itself, and it did.

MISP preferred, but will consider opened NM/Complete, especially for older figures. Lots of TFs for trade! Please PM any inquiries, serious interest only!

both titanium soundwave and rodimus are there, at least 2 of each. erm that's about it. there should be soundwaves reissues left at tru as well if you make it to the toysrus.

i want to say there is a jetfire there too (walmart) but i'm not 100% that it'll last till tomorrow.

I hit the one in Ypsi off of Ellsworth or something like that.
I hit up Toys R us Snagged 2 Soundwaves a Clasics Megatron and a damaged Op Megs 2 pack that I got 7 bucks knocked off of. Then I went to the Walmart Scored a Cliffjumper, Ramjet, 2 Rodimus, and 2 Soundwave. They still had quite a few left. I'm impressed by the stock these stores have compared to the Downriver Area.
