Wow man! I love Black Big Convoy too.

Sometime last week, I picked up Firetrap and Breacher. Breacher is a major disappointment for me, although maybe I'm doing it wrong. Tonight I scored nearly all of G1 Monstructor unbroken with tech specs and instructions for only $60! All I'm missing is Slog's Pretender shell and back. I've already cleaned em up (Carefully, Slog and Bristleback are prone to breakage since they're afflicted with GPS) and I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on Reprolabels for him. So effing stoked about finally having him complete! I've had Wildfly sitting so lonely for like four years. HA!

::EDIT:: I feel like I have to scream, I'm tickled bloody pink!

Last night I got:
Generations Thunderwing
Generations Skullgrin
I also figured out I was "doing it wrong" for Breacher's bot mode. He's fine now, although my initial disappointment hasn't faded much.

How'd you score such a sweet deal on Monstructor? Don't tell you robbed some old lady. But hey, if that works...

Local comic shop got a box of TF stuff in and he was scattered all through the box of parts and figures. Pieced it all together and sorta strongarmed my friend/employee into selling it to me before anyone knew what they had. They'll easily make their money back on whatever else is in the box. I know they paid nearly nothing for it and there's decent stuff in it.

A small box arrived from BBTS this weekend;

Cliffjumper, Skullgrin and Thundercracker
Alternity Thundercracker
TF2010 Predaking (I waffled about him, then decided to go for it. I'm glad I did)
and the CrazyDevy Predaking head.

Expect a few more hauls from me in the future, given that Transformers are being clearanced (50% price cut!), both HftD (except Scouts) and PCC. Today's lot:

PCC Leadfoot with Pinpoint
PCC Icepick with Chainclaw
PCC Sledge with Throttler

The stores are being swamped with the wave 3 repaints at the moment, so I had to get wave 2 fast before it disappears. The worst part? The HftD Wave 2 Deluxes were in Bargain Bins!

Picked up this guy while looking at Wii and DS games:

PCC Steelshot with Beacon

My wife was looking at Littlest Pet Shop and found two she liked. so I grabbed him so I wouldn't go empty-handed. Besides, half off

Already mentioned in the other thread that I picked up a Thunderwing yesterday, but I also picked up a Battle Blades Optimus Prime on a whim. I don't usually go for movie figs, but for some reason this one just called out to me.

Just scored WFC Soundwave and Dirge in the local TRU here. Dirge's blue color is magnificent.

Just got Predaking, CD Predaking new head and wings!!! everything is totally awesome!!!

Fri Dec 17, 2010 12:13 pm

I went to Toys R Us this morning to check out what they have restocked and I run across 3 Blurrs on the rack. I got all 3. Side Note: It seems that TRU has hired nothing but beautiful women for the holidays.

RtS Tracks!

Gonna check another nearby Target this afternoon to see if I can grab Jazz, Grapple, or Lugnut.

Fri Dec 17, 2010 12:49 pm

Wanna sell one?

Here I was hoping for the pic to be of the women in question.

Great find! Wasn't he worth the wait?

Fri Dec 17, 2010 1:12 pm

MP Prime and Staescream for 140. I am well pleased.

Congrats! He's a great figure... fun reuse / retool of the Drift mold, and I love his guns. Between Blurr, Rodimus in Protector kit, UM in City Commander kit, Warbot not-Springer, iGear Arcee, & upcoming Sarge Kup & Wreck-Gar... you can have a nice set of the main season 3 Bots!

What do you do with 3 of them though??

One for myself, one for a friend on this forum, and one to use a bargain chip to get a classics Prime, Ultra Magnus, or Nemesis Prime
