look behind the other Deluxes

Judge Deliberata wrote:Anyone else go to the toy convention in Montreal today? There was some great stuff - I nabbed me a spare reissue Thundercracker for $45 bucks, and a G1 Grimlock in exquisite condition, all of his accessories included and stickers applied, for $75! I wish I'd brough more cash, there were tons of loose G1s in great shape for nice prices! MP Screamer was there for $125, too - not as bad as I thought it would be.
Judge Deliberata wrote:Frankly, I was expecting Screamer to be somewhere in the neighborhood of $145 or so - seeing him for 125 was something of a pleasant surprise. I was that close to picking him up until I decided to take one last look around. There were actually two loose G1 tables, one right across from the other, stuck behind a display stand - that's where I found Grimmy. Had I an extra $150 to throw around (lolz, as if), I'd have picked up the Shockwave that was sitting there too. They had a Frenzy for $20 bucks, but no accessories (only thing that stopped me), each of the Insecticons for under thirty, and Swoop and Snarl, too. I wish I had not bought that MP3 player earlier in the week; stupid stupid stupid. >_<
I too have acquired the Attack Pack, and am as well leaving it MIB. That's what I love about those little guys, you don't feel guilty for not taking them out to transform them because...they don't!
I was dismayed by the utter and complete lack of Classics however. Apart from ToysOnFire's table, there was nothing, and they didn't have Bumblebee, Megs, or even Op and Jetfire as far as I saw.

EBay's probably a better bet as they're flooded with MP-Screamers now. I've seen them go for about 80 bucks, but I've had mostly bad luck with TFs and Ebay and tend to avoid whenever possible.
Judge Deliberata wrote:By all rights, I should have had Classics Megs by now, but he was one EBay win I got gypped on. Sent the money, no response, complaint made. I almost got screwed out of MP-Megs as well, but managed to get my cash back. Mind if I ask who or where you acquired yours from on the off chance they've got more?
Ach, Christmas is just about here, innit? Phooey. Just when my Grimlock was giving me more of an urge to hunt down some loose G1s...a practice I've shied away from. >_<
But..but...I also really need that Madman Headmasters DVD set! ARGH! **head explodes**

These sales look interesting to me. Just hope they have something in stock when it starts!
Thanks bud
