I love tax season.

Thanks Chad, The price and the time sound great. Any chance you'll want to pick up those vintage Joes that night? I can get you a price today.

And thanks to RC13 for grabbing me a Jungle Bonecrusher yesterday!

WooHooo! Sky Lynx! Sky Lynx! Sky Lynx! Sky Lynx! Sky Lynx! Sky Lynx! :grin:

he's in at BBTS.. hmm.. ship my loot, or wait for the two diamond select busts that will probably be in this week... :-?

hah.. guess I answered my own question about shipping my pile of loot. Actionfigurexpress has the battle damaged prime and reformatted megatron busts in stock and they are running a special.. buy both for 107.99. that's $12 cheaper than BBTS and if you use this code: FREESHIP, shipping is free :grin:

it'll be a great week for transformers goodness :grin:

I'm having the same kind of dilemma with my loot. I currently have a crap-load of Minimates awaiting my order to ship but it looks like Battlestar Galactica wave 4 and Star Trak wave 3 should be in any day now. Man, that's going to be one enormous box of Minimates. I almost can't wait!

Is that a deal AFX is running on everything or just those busts?
EDIT: Ah, I see it now. Free shipping for orders over $85.

The Binaltech pre-orders are up on bigbadtoystore.com at $56.99 each for collector's grade.

I have them pre-ordered at the moment, I hope tfsource.com gets them listed since they are typically cheaper and I perfer to pay upfront.

Thanks for the update! I ordered them awhile ago as well. I just can't believe BBTS would put up a pre-order so quickly.... ahh, who am I kidding. They are the definition of "jumping the gun"

speaking of minimates, anyone interested in some of the C3 batman/justice league ones? i've got a buttload of minimates i'm looking to clear out, maybe trade for some joes or classic 'formers.

Got a few vintage bots recently...

G1 Getaway all nice and minty, complete, with spec
G1 Bugly -- same shape
G1 Bombburst -- ditto

Fun guys, I really enjoy Bombburst's inner bot, and Bugly's outer shell is cool--inner bot not so much...

Getaway is very nice too. No yellowing on mine!

I shipped my Sky Lynxes (2), and my new SW JEDI UNlEASHEDED waves. I had to get a couple each of the troopers, and imperial guards. The rest are up for sale.

Well, tomorrow I head to Chicago for a Big Important Interview. I'll be there for a few days, due in part to a reliance on the train schedule. I suppose I should try to find a toy store or two!

A friend and I are planning a hunting expedition on Monday for the Walmart deluxes. :grin:

Woo-Hoo! I picked up the DC: The New Frontier DVD today. I had to go with the set with the Best Buy exclusive Green Lantern figurine. I'm very excited to watch this. Review coming soon...

...if anyone's interested, that is.

You know Chicago is where Seibertron lives, and seibertron.com is based, don't you?

You might consider going over to the Illinois thread, and asking about or PM'ing certain folks.
