Can't remember if I listed any of this yet. Don't really care, I'll simply repeat a couple items. Recently snagged some great stuff from ebay that I've been after for awhile. First was Transmetal 2 Megatron MISB. Wow, he is soooo much nicer than I ever gave him credit for. I think both normal modes are great and I'm pretending the "vehicle" mode doesn't exist. What mode? That's right, there isn't a third one. See how that works? Second, VS-S1 Convoy-Bat and Megator CD-ROM 2 pack MOSC. Pretty rare and expensive two pack of the original Primal and Megatron basic figures. I have yet to free them from the card. They look so pretty on there. Annnd third and fourth, Takara BW Rattle/Rattrap MISB and Takara BW Terrorsaur(/er?) MISB. I just got these from the mail. I probably won't get to opening these guys before bed. I will say this. FINALLY!!! I have waited on blowing the cash on these guys for years now. I can't wait to add these to my BW display. That's it for now. I'm expecting more awesome stuff by the end of the week. If anyone is curious about the 2 pack or the what the difference is with the Takara BW stuff is, I'll post links for ya.

I'm out.

::EDIT::
Ok, I lied. I opened em. Rattrap is great. Now I can toss that crappy Big Lots KO I've had for a while. Terrorsaur is some KO-like plastic though and his face is painted very poorly. It isn't enough to eat at me. His face is tiny. I'm just glad to have them both finally. YAY!

They also had a couple FB Jazzes, 1 Payload, and 1 Dreadwing left. The ones I got in my hand were the last ones. Mwahahaha!

[decepticonjon]

I bought Voyager Blackout for customizing. I've been working on removing his Autobreak. I'm still not sure why they made the shoulder clips so damn weak...

I also finally found a Concept Camaro Bumblebee, so I bought that too. Leg gimmick is very nice, but the chest one is iffy. I feel like it's going to break. The gun arm is way oversized, and the energy blade from the game isn't that much of a cool feature. Whatever.

I also picked up some Tamiya acrylic model paints for customizing purposes.

[fnlrun]

picked up 2, 09 bumblebees this morning. Wally World just got 2 cases in!

[Deceptiwho?]

This week I got<
1. Alt skids , 2. Alt riccochet , 3. Classics Jetfire x2 , 4. movie Barricade first version... Waiting on a few shipments still... Hopefully leader Brawl comes in tonite!!

[zemper]

woo hoo!

USPS finally came through my locality, and after dropping by the local post office before going to work, i got the priority package that a good seller from eBay (USA) sent to me (took USPS long enough...3 weeks for priority mail?...grrr).

after reporting at work and settling in my desk, i quietly took off to our conference area, away from the eyes of my prying co-workers, and with trembling hands hurriedly ripped open the tabs that kept me from my prize...and there it was.

wrapped in bubble-enveloped glory, the three TFs that i won for a measly $10 USD for the whole set:

TORCA
TM IGUANUS
and POWERPINCH,

loose but MINT complete with their backing cards. joints were tight, and no defect whatsoever. condition is just like-opened.

boy, i thank God for this day. my very first Beast Wars transformers have arrived! eeeyaahooooo!!!!

[tom brokaw]

3" titanium thundercracker and pepsi prime .

[PrimeSuspect]

Still waiting for my 20th Prime to not be on backorder.

Come on BBTS... get that toy and send it to me pronto!

[ionacus]

[MaP_Prime]

[Auto Bot]

Cybertron Primus for only $15 so far. Concentrating so hard on nabbing that that I didn't make my usual rounds this morning. I'll look after work, and will probably end up buying a Ratchet as consolation.

[1337W422102]

I figured out what I was doing wrong with my Concept Camaro Bumblebee, I didn't pull his front wheels out far enough. I like the figure but the legs are weak, what with the loose hip joints and the lack of swivel (though the automorph is pretty badass).

I finally managed to get Robot Heroes Ultra Magnus and Megatron. I now have the entire first 2 waves. My Magnus has a bent antenna, not sure if it's from me taking him out of the package or not. Naturally, he's in the Autobot-Leader-Pointing-Finger pose. Not sure why Megatron's gun barrel is silver but the rest of him isn't. Either way, these guys own.

[tom brokaw]

g1 titanium ultra magnus and ww1 megs.

[zemper]

These bay-behs, mint but loose with accessories for only $31 USD...

titanium fallen

[Wheeljack35]

I wish I could find new titaniums


ANYWAYS

I picked up Real Gear Zoom Out

[MentalDragon]

FINALLY!!! Got a 20th Ann Prime for a decent price! It was still tagged at $69.99 and I almost just left it there like I did sooooo many times... but something told me to scan it... so I did and to my surprise it displayed $50.00!!! I scanned another one to be sure and yes... $50! I even had a person scan it for me and it came up with $50 with 27 left in inventory.

I also went to Family Dollar and got some Universe Figures:

Arcee
Windrazor
Perceptor (Mini-con Team)
Optimus Prime Spychanger

Not too shabby!
