There will be complaints about the colors on dreadwind, I'm sure. But I'm pretty sure the original was probably close to the same colors. Now, what is going to be the secret figure that only those of us getting the primus package get? and hopefully Alpha Trion will be real and not super expensive.. cos that one is really cool too.

I can't agree more. All of your statements are correct including about color... .

So I got this huge BBTS order today, highlights include:

Nikemus Prime
MegaNike

(I love the shoe guys, they are really cool, and yes, I suggest even you doubters get a pair.)

Masterpiece Megatron sans plug (probably just sell it since I have a non-plugged version already)

Revoltech Megatron--much better than Rev. Prime, and Rev. 'Little Prime' Magnus, but I really dislike his face, and neck.

SW V-Wing-- I love this space ship... it's the coolest, and I had to get it, I could not wait to find it in stores.

Then there were some random loose cobra/gi joe action figures, the 'Pigs in Space Playset' (hey, I love the Muppets...), Adventure Kermit (see previous statement, and add 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' to it), Viper Pit Pack (6 cobra vipers made from the Spy Troops mold...my Terrordrome needs troops!!)...

Much of this was bought in their sales, which did save me a bundle...

Better news...my japanese Transformers G1 exclusives from Seibertron member Atreyu have arrived, and they are waiting for me to pick them up at the post office tomorrow morning. You can bet I will be first in line!!!

It's like Christmas, Botcon, and my birthday all rolled into one...I'm giddy!

WalMart in Howell had a Han, Luke and Death Star Trooper from the Star Wars 30th Anniversary line last night. I left them because I already had them

I did pick up Comic Pack #03 from there and I found a DC Super Heroes Steel at the Howell Meijer.

I found a McQuarrie Boba Fett at Target on Ford Rd. They also had teh Han, and Luke from that new wave as well.

I also got my big Japanese G1 order from Atreyu, all mint in box complete, except Swoop--just minty and complete...

-Countdown and the Rescue Patrol
-MM Autobot Battle Patrol
-MM Space combiner set (shuttle, rocket launcher truck)
-MM Decepticon Battle Partrol
-Go Shooter (white Siren)
-MM Rabbibrater (MM from Zone, repainted Skystalker, comes with video of the only show aired)
-Dai Atlas (Now combined with Roadfire, and Sonic Bomber to create...BIG POWERED!!)
-Black Zarak...gold pieces are all good, except Fasttrack's feet, the connector for the toes is broken...
-Pretender Metalhawk
-Dino cassette Graffi

I think that was all...fun times today.

Pistons game tonight!!! I'll be there!

I picked up 4x Transformers Movie 2007 pillow cases at the Ionia Kmart

If anyone sees an Episode II tin in good shape could you shoot me a PM?

Thanks!

And paying, and paying, and paying for it...

Just got back from Spiderman 3, I quite liked it. Some unexpected twists, great action, and Venom! I laughed alot...Bruce Campbell's scene and evil Peter were cheesy enough to warrant several belly chuckles. It's a bit fast paced at times, and alittle hard to keep up with all of the character's changing emotional states. There were a few action sequences that actually made my heart jump, and I don't experience that too often anymore.

I'd write some complaints but I don't want to spoil right now. But it's so worth it. Even the $13 I spent on refreshment.

I picked up the Transformers Movie 2007 comforter from Kmart and I got 2x Blob Series Thor's from the WalMart.

They still had pretty much 2x of every other character in the Blob series there.

haha. i attended a wedding in battle creek over the weekend and *almost* stopped by at the jackson walmart on my way home to check things out. then i would have been sad that there were no thors

does that one still have any alts?

the walmart in battle creek had HML2 all except thor (go figure), a bunch of SW30th, all except concept guys, and no alts. they did have the constructicons though.

I'm debating on whether or not to buy alt ravage from BBTS... I know once I do, someone will find one in retail I don't know yet. I should just save my money for botcon and get some of the more obscure stuff I've been wanting.. Like that worlds smallest Magnus with transforming diaclone coloured trailer. It was $80.. that's kind of a lot for a worlds smallest, but if you compare it to what I paid for a full size diaclone magnus.. it's about right But, that would also depend on if Genghis Kahn and the Flying Yakuza's have that one again...(I actually don't know the names of the guys. They come over from Japan every year and sell some stuff at insanely low prices. One of the guys looks exactly like Genghis Kahn in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure... the name kinda evolved from there )

take one for the team rc-13
you buy it and all of a sudden it'll pop up in michigan everywhere. seems like the only place it really hit was that walmart in jackson.

Nope. I haven't seen an Alt. Rumble or Ravage on the shelves in several weeks

They might have them in the back though.
