The Energon Pub

Random thought...

I was looking at the tech specs and comparing them.

Starscream has an intelligence of 4 (g1 colored target movie exclusives)...

Payload (a drone) has an intelligence level of 5...

Hmmm....

Eastwood Wal-Mart had x2 Dreadwing, x2 Ultimate Bumblebee and 6x Voyager Optimus Prime and Megatron.

Hehe.....the Payload and Final Battle Jazz didn't last too long out of that box did they?

I stopped by TRU in Southgate, they pretty much had nothing new and basically nothing altogether. Only real find, if even that, was Classics Jetfire and a Primus.

Also checked Southgate Meijer, they had jack. I don't think they've updated since the initial launch of the movie line. So that's it for now.

I think I'll check the Woodhaven Walmart again tomorrow and possibly the Woodhaven Target again.

Seems like a lot of TRUs are breaking out Classics Voyagers and Primus cases lately.

Oh, and welcome to the board!

carpenter meijers and target, nothing new.

That's Woodhaven. There's a Target, Walmart and Meijer all within a quarter mile (at the most) of each other. Going to hit up that area tomorrow night.

Need to get over to the Taylor Target soon too.

I would also like to extend a welcome to our new members. On a side note, I went hunting and got the Flashing Horn Whistle I needed for my Barricade mod. Too bad I won't actually be able to do it 'till this weekend. On another side note, I got to chapter 4 in RE4. Yay! I also got the extreme luck of one of the first novistadors I fought in the sewers dropping a Blue Eye, one of the rarest drops in the game, allowing me to complete the butterfly lamp now, and use the blue eye from the nest to complete the other lamp I get later. That lamp not only help net me enough cash to upgrade my TMP and Red-9 to ridiculous levels, but I got to upgrade my case to the XL with the money from other treasure that would've had to go towards the upgrades! I'll never have to worry about space again.

So far I dig Metroid 3.

Have you played RE4? I want to know what one to ask for...

Ford Rd. walmart had no less than 8 Voyager Megs, 8 Voyager Primes, 2 Ratchets (regular), 1 Starscream, 1 Ironhide, and 1 Dreadwing.

They were on an endcap, and on the island mostly.

Just came back from the Ann Arbor Toys R' Us where they were loaded with figurines, especially the Voyager class! They had Voyager Starscream (x1), Megatron (x3), Ironhide (x1), Ratchet (x3), and Optimus (x3), along with many other figurines. I didn't have my notepad with me so I don't remember everything, but they had tons of new stuff!

Well I was at Woodhaven Wal-Mart (Exit 32 off of I-75) tonight, they had:

MOVIE LINE:
Voyager:
- Prime (x1, I bought it)
- Megatron (x1)
- Ironhide (x1)
- Ratchet* (x1 –*Couldn't tell if it was supposed to be that metallic green one or not)
- Starscream (x2)
Leader:
- Brawl (x2)

- Ultimate Bumblebee (x2)

CLASSICS:
Deluxe:
- Ramjet (2 or 3 I think)
- Cliffjumper (3 or 4 I think)
- Grimlock (2, one beat up pkg and one good one which I bought if anyone is interested in him.)
- Prime/Megatron DVD 2 Pack
Voyager:
- Jetfire (x2)
- Prime (x2)

- Quite a few different mini-cons

20th Annv. DVD Prime (x2)

CYBERTRON:
Scouts:
- Hardtop, Armorhide, BrushGuard, Clocker and couple others (maybe 1 or 2 of each).
Deluxe:
- Prime (Beast, x2)
- Demolisher (x2)
- Smokescreen (x1)
Supreme:
- Primus (x2)

There was NO Alts or 6" Titaniums.

That's about it. I'm sure there might be a few things I'm forgetting since this is mostly off the top of my head.

Woodhaven Meijer was a total bust. It's like most others, not jack left.

Didn't have time to hit the Woodhaven Target before closing, but unless they restocked from Saturday night, they only had 2 Leader Brawls left and some 6" Titaniums.

I found a WWI Titanium Magnus at westland target last night. Tonight I found a G1 Titanium Magnus at the Kmart on Washtenaw in AA.

Wow so many newbs on the last few pages. Welcome all!

I found TIT 6 Sunstorm and WW Magnus yesterday at the Target in Dearborn, there were only one of each.

Drive-By, how are you recovering??

man, woodhaven walmart is teh awesome.

nice find on the g1 magnus rc. does this move kmart ahead of meijers in the rankings?

yes, I have found much more new stuff at kmart lately than at Meijer. Meijer really does just suck.. especially the Canton meijer cos they are douchebags and are mean to PQP

Not alot of action lately in my collecting world. I don't have the patience to track these new figures down at the moment, Dropkick looks cool IMO, looking forward to seeing him in person. I did come across this auction that made me take a step back & say 'Holy Crap'!

It's a figure I would love to own, but probably never will.
