What the deuce? They're ruining my immaculate collection of 1/6 Marvel.

Curiosity: have we heard any news on the 3rd motorcycle from RotF? I've been pinching my pennies lately, but aside from that I'll prolly only get HA Barricade and Jazz this year. I don't think I want the Twins. The hype's died down, I don't need all the people.

the twins are a buy just to buy for me....haven't seen mudflap yet though....if you have to make a choice...jazz and barricade hands down.

There were 4 Animated Arcees at Westland TRU tonight. Nothing much else of note.

Animated Arcee continues to elude me on the west side of the state. I keep finding Ratchets, but no Arcees...

Ugh. I just know if I see the 8" I'm going to pick him up. They'll have to stand apart from my 12" line, I guess.

I mean, just look at 'em. Maybe I'll use them as a custom painting experiment. I'm already thinking WM doesn't look dark enough.

There was only 1 War Machine when I was there. They still had a few Iron Mans.

That makes a little more sense :grin:

I can't believe how quickly those go. My guess is they were all bought up by one person though. I'm dreading the Rodimus and Ironhide release. They'll be impossible to find.

THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING..oops...I meant that's what I was thinking. Hopefully the person just wants them for his/her own personal collection, and not to sell at the next con.

I didn't have too much trouble finding them. but the amount of times I've seen Arcee has been very few. Makes me worried that Rodimus might be harder to find.

Went to my local Wal-Mart yesterday. Didn't see any of those exclusive Iron Man.

Transformers, they seem to be quite set in the figures that are out, the NEST line and the same HA. I don't even recall seeing animated (tho I wasn't looking for them either).

That works for me. For those who know what "steampunk" attire looks like, that's what I'll be wearing

Rushing to get it finished in time...eep!

I can sell you some movie TFs, and ROTF figures transformed maybe once that I am so tired of storing.

Does anyone that frequents either Xtravacon or will be at MCCC happen to have a Stealth Bumblebee from movie 1 that they'd be willing to sell, in or out of box? Contact me by PM, please. Otherwise I'll just be on the lookout for one this Saturday at the con. Thanks!
