jtk: no reason to feel left out. the only stuff i am getting is OLD stuff since i'm late to the game. there's really not much new out there.

tt: digicams are so cheap these days it's amazing. you can get a great camera (6mp) for about $100. that being said, i only have a junker camera as well and 2.5 years old. did you do some donuts in the mustang?

the lego line that i've been buying sporadically is exoforce. i just love the little anime guys with funky coloured hair.

i will pick up the four pack of troopers though.

TT, the McQuarrie stuff is what I'm interested in too. And also the afore mentioned Twisted Toyfare Troopers :grin:

Can't wait for a con.. it will be april maybe that I can get to an extravacon. might have to wait until motorcity.

Hey not sure if you guys are looking for them but there are a ton of the Ultra Magnus/Skywarp two packs at the new Target in Allen Park. One of them was mismarked at 9.99 so I picked it up. No other Mismarks though.

Anyone see any of the Titaniums Soundwave or Rodimus?

I have seen a few Soundwaves at Toys R Us in Okemos/Jackson and a few at WalMart. I have only seen one Rodimus and he was at WalMart. I got mine from BBTS quite awhile ago.

Looks like I might need to get him off the net then. Thanks.

how does the mismark actually work then? do they just honour the sticker price?

there's a rodimus and a soundwave at the walmart by me, but that's a little trek for you. i don't think they're going to stop shipping them though, i mean target hasn't gotten any yet.

Yeah most of the time they will honour the sticker price. Sometimes they won't do it depending on the item. How long of a trek?

I feel like it's a trek and I don't live far away. Maybe once a month, I'll come home a different way (94 instead of 14) and get that Walmart and the Belleville in one sweep.

I know digicams are cheap these days. In fact I read that on another thread. It's not an excuse, I'll get one soon, maybe after I am done paying off these vintage japanese G1's...

Snow days over, now it's like any normal day...

That was fun putting the LEGO imperial landing craft together. Cool little features too! Look ma' I'm playing engineer!!! That's about as close as I can come to being mechanically inclined. :-(

I'm getting the itch to try to put a War within LEGO Prowl together... I tried once before and failed miserably. Yes, I want it to transform which makes it really difficult. Trying to make any good robot mug out of LEGOs is really hard too.

New LOST tonight! [/i]

i have 2 or 3 different toy run routes but the most common brings me out to the canton area. there aren't really any good walmarts in my search area which is unfortunate.

picked up another minga the other day. if anyone else on the board needs one let me know.

man, pistons are being abused by the spurs.

I stopped by the Ypsi/Arbor wal-mart. found 1 Ramjet!!! TT, thanks for the offer! but I don't need it now. they had two Titanium 6" Rodimus Primes and 3 Soundwaves. I also picked up the Royal Guard TIE interceptor at target.

i got the TF classics leo prime and trypticon at the local TRU. they also had fireflight and perceptor. they also had the soundwave reissue for $29.99. but i had to leave them there because i didnt have enough money on me.

I have not seen them, yet, but if the first wave was any indication, Meijer should have them first.

by **Rijie** » Thu Feb 15, 2007 2:39 pm

The DB Hts Target had a Classics Jetfire today, as of about 11:30am. No Ramjet or Cliffjumper. Nothing else to report.

by **noob** » Thu Feb 15, 2007 7:35 pm

ah a nice and slow time for new transformers. there just isn't anything new out there at the moment.

has anyone picked up revs? are they any good?

by **Rodimus_Lantern** » Thu Feb 15, 2007 7:37 pm

I'm gonna be in Ypsi tomorrow. What's the latest Transformers tally?

by **noob** » Thu Feb 15, 2007 7:49 pm

both titanium soundwave and rodimus are there, at least 2 of each. erm that's about it. there should be soundwaves reissues left at tru as well if you make it to the toysrus.

i want to say there is a jetfire there too (walmart) but i'm not 100% that it'll last till tomorrow.

by **Rodimus_Lantern** » Thu Feb 15, 2007 11:25 pm

I'll be out there first thing in the morning. Now its only a matter of figuring out how to get to both stores and a National City from Eastern.

by **Rodimus_Lantern** » Thu Feb 15, 2007 11:57 pm

Alright figured it out. Melvindale to Eastern, Eastern to National City, National City to Toys R Us, Toys R us to Wal Mart, Walmart to another Walmart, Walmart to Detroit.

Can't wait for this hunt to commence.

nice route. isn't there another walmart you could hit if you're taking 94? i assume you're hitting the one in belleville.

by **Rodimus_Lantern** » Fri Feb 16, 2007 2:52 pm

I hit the one in Ypsi off of Ellsworth or something like that.
I hit up Toys R us Snagged 2 Soundwaves a Clasics Megatron and a damaged Op Megs 2 pack that I got 7 bucks knocked off of. Then I went to the Walmart Scored a Cliffjumper, Ramjet, 2 Rodimus, and 2 Soundwave. They still had quite a few left. I'm impressed by the stock these stores have compared to the Downriver Area.

by **noob** » Fri Feb 16, 2007 4:44 pm

yeah i mean the walmart after the one in ypsi, did you hit the belleville one?

the current stock is deceiving. i mean these have been out for a while and we just got them.

thanks for wiping out our stock!
