Well, not a recent haul. But this is what I got in the month of july. $340 worth of Transformers (I'm in canada, so I do pay a lot more than you Americans...) None were bought online, something I'm very proud of. Those doubled the number of Transformers in my collection. I now have 24 Tfs and I love them all! Only bought the ones I liked as I'm not a completist. Really not the biggest collection out there, but it will do for now.

Me too! Today! Yay for us! :cool:

ordered Rescue Ratchet and Thundercracker from Target.com

How much did it cost with tax and shipping?

by **AlienQuiksilver** » Sat Aug 25, 2007 4:48 am

Picked up Thundercracker and Rescue Ratchet. I found both of these at 2 WM's I visited yesterday.

Also, I picked up some notable classics on ebay; Via USPS

BB(x2)
Rodimus
Grimlock
Starscream
Skywarp/U.Magnus

The classics were above retail cost, but still very fair in price. Got lucky with SS. I found the auction 4 minutes after it was listed. BIN baby!

Now ... all I need for completion of the classics, Voyager Megs. I can't find him for a respectable price though, so I shall continue lurk in the shadows of fleabay!

How much do they sell there?

Yesterday... 2 leader brawls, Voyager OP, Cybertron Megatron.

This morning's hauls:

I keep 3 of each (one for display, one for my son, and one for my son's college education)... so I have extra's... let me know if you need anything.

Both hauls are from target. I left 1 Leader Brawl, 1 Leader Megatron, 1 Leader Optimus Prime, 1 Sunstorm Titanium.

I can't believe I found a 08 Bumblebee...

LOL... yeah... hopefully in 15 years it will be worth something that I could help supplement the 529.

my guess is he thinks these things are going to be worth enough 15-20 years from now to do such a thing. Personally I wouldn't for 3 reasons:

1. There's really no telling how much those things are going to be worth.

2. even if they're worth a lot on the books, they're really only gonna net you as much as someone else is willing to pay for them.

3. All TFs must escape from their plastic prisions!!!

If the school head turns out to be a TF fan, you may even get a full scholarship grant!

Got my Beast Wars Neo Corahda vs Saberback VS-30 2-pack in the mail today.

Saberback has ousted Energon Starscream as the TF in my collection with the most complicated transformation.

by **AutobotServo** » Sat Aug 25, 2007 4:09 pm

Went to Target and no luck on G1 Starscream. As a last resort, I went to Kohl's. JACKPOT! Four Transformers on a peg...

Arcee
That white APC tank thing. (forgot the name. Wreckage I think.)
Bonecrusher
Dredwing

YAY! I finally got Arcee and Dreadwing. (Plus they were on sale!)

On the way out I found a lonely Barricade sitting on a couch/table. I grabbed it and brought back to it's rightful place for a lucky fan/kid to find!

Is Dreadwing difficult to find where you are? That guy is like the king of peg warmers out this way. I swear, it's like they're shipping us cases of nothing but Dreadwing -- he dominates the TFs section.

I Walk into Target And Find 1 Longarm, 1 Payload, 1 Final Battle Jazz, 1 Recon Barricade, 2 Dreadwing, and 1 Dropkick

Come Back a Half Hour Latter Cash In Hand To Get The Only Ones That Were Left... 1 Payload 1 Dreadwing.

I Also Did Get The Ratchet/Megatron Robot Heroes Pack... Thus Completeing The Robot Heroes Movie Line For Me

I Had Higher Expectations On Dreadwing. But The Bottom Half In Robo Mode Is Garbage. And Overall I Dont Like His Robo Mode. The Jet Is Nice To Go With Starscream Though.

Payload Paid Off. Really Didnt Expect That Nice Of A Robot Mode. Only Thing I Really Dont Like Is The Hands.

by **prowlstreak** » Sat Aug 25, 2007 5:59 pm

at my local target they had 8 g1 redeco's and all the target exclusive's like arcee plus 1 leader megatron

I think so. This was the first time I've seen him. I don't think I'll be seeing Dropkick round' here in Florida for awhile.
:lol:

And I like Dreadwing. Longer legs would have been nice, but I think it would've made the jet mode too bulky.
:-?

Thats Interesting. Out This Way (York Pa Not Phila)There Is Nothing Period. So As Soon They Restock, Which Consists Of 1 to 2, Wave 2 Boxs, Theres Nothing Left. If Any, The Shelfwarmers Are Jazz and Wreakage. Even Swindle is Hard To Find.
