thought I'd share this with you guys...it's pretty cool and I just happened to find it by chance...he doesn't have it linked to the word "transformer" for some reason...any way it's pretty cool.

I don't know how many Farscape fans we have on here, but I wanted to let them all know about a great deal. BestBuy.com has Farscape: the Complete series listed for $69.99. Their regular price on it is $129.99. Don't know how long this will last. You can order it online and pick it up in the store if they have it in stock. Also, according to JTKranix, if you show them it's 69.99 online they'll match it in the store. Check here: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Farscape%3A ... &lp=1&cp=1 to see if they have it in stock.

I picked mine up at Westland last night. Apparently the Best Buy version of the complete series includes "The Peacekeeper Wars" that ended the show. This isn't listed as being included in the one you can get on Amazon, etc..

I'm very excited about getting this. I haven't seen any episodes besides the Premiere in years. And I'm not sure if I ever saw all of the episodes either. There was a time when I didn't have the SciFi channel(*gasp* The Horror!!!!" :grin: )

Picked up DCUC Deadshot today, at the Allen Park Target, only one there from the Chemo wave. I'm building quite the Batman rogues gallery. And I saw Animated Skywarp, and picked him up, too, they had 2 Shockwaves and a Grimlock left.

X-travacon is Sunday, I haven't been there since August! I miss geeking out for the day. See whoever-is-coming there.
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!

Target in Westland has all the new TF exclusive: Straightaway Shootout, Leo Prime, Burning Fallen, and as an added bonus, Animated Armor Up Optimus Prime and Battlefield Bumblebee Activators. The Prime harkens back to the glory days as a bit of an homage to Star Convoy...

Yay.

They also had the GI JOE PAst and Present set (Polar Battle Bear and ROCslide ATV).

I picked up Leo Prime at Canton Target on Ford Road. I grabbed one for myself and one for Andrew. They didn't have any out. They got them from the back. Not sure if there were anymore in the back. I think the guy said they were the only two. I didn't see any of the other exclusives. Lots of Grindors and a few Long Hauls.

The Ann Arbor/Saline Rd. Target also had a bunch of those out at the end of the aisle.

Whoo, Xtravacon tomorrow! Feels like it's been ages :P

Both the Taylor and Belleville WMs have those new Scout 2-packs, priced at $9, several of each. Both stores also had several Animated Shadow Blade Megatrons, priced at $20.00, nice. I was tempted. Both stores also had 1 Animated Skywarp, and at least one Shockwave. Saw a Freeway Jazz at the BV store, passed on him, but he looks great anyway.

Oh, and Taylor WM still has at least 6 MP Skywarps.
I told the fire to go **** itself, and it did.

I'm part of the collector's club. I think it's worth it if you want to get any of the exclusives or free figures they release. This year the free figure is Dion, a repaint of Universe Hot Shot and so far the exclusive mentioned is Punch/Counterpunch from the Universe Sunstreaker/Sideswipe mold. If you don't get a membership, these figures basically cost $40 more(the price of the membership) It's the same for any Botcon package. I do like the magazine you get ever 2 months or so. It's definitely worth it to me for the free figure/exlusives.

okay.. I think I've rambled enough... not that coherent this morning.

Found myself a Protoform Prime at a local comic shop today, only $10.
They had a Starscream as well, but he wasn't in the movie so forget that. :p

Whoops.
My location is a bit out of date, I live in Royal Oak. I work in the Madison Heights TRU.
I can still let you know when I start seeing it. The stock seems pretty consistent between the two stores based on my limited comparisons.


In other news, I didn't realize there was a gallery posted for Leader Class Starscream: http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/ ... ream/1965/

Oh man.
Not to get picky, but I wonder if there's a possibility he'll be released with the first film's paint scheme at any point.

Good Day Michiganders...I know its been awhile since I have posted here...some of you I reconize others are new to me, I am here to annouce I have returned! After spending the last 2 years in CLE I have moved my family back to MI. I am also very happy to let you all know I am doing my part to stimulate the MI economy...namely I am returning with not just the wife I left with but a 15 Month old son(who loves Transformers already) and we are due with our second in May.

Welcome back, Sparty! Congrats on the 2nd baby.

the new walmart in Saline/Ann Arbor had two Freeway Jazz and two Soundwave with Ratbat. Target on Carpenter had a bunch of Leo Primes and Fallen exclusives and a few of the legend 5 packs. AA TRU had 4 Universe Vector Primes! I had never seen them in stores.
