Why didn't I have a larger disposable income when I was 2 years old? :sad:

I would've so bought everything on the shelves.

More recently, I wish I would have picked up G1 Scorponok and Trypticon from a friend of mine about 10 years back. I think he ended up throwing them away or something because the next time I asked about them he didn't know where they were.

That's grounds for a butt-kicking right there.

Got most everything i want cept the UM/Skywarp two-pack. Of course Target clears them out on the one-month hiatus I took from shopping after it took me forever to find a classics Starscream. Also screwed up and didn't realize the 2-pack bumblebee preorder would run out. Anybody know when this'll hit the retail stores?

I highly suggest no one clicks this.


Remove the link.

It's kinda making Cyber Bishop taking it out of the first page pointless.


I hope this ass has been IP banned.

(I already edited the link here by the way)

On topic, I guess it's just gonna take a little bit longer to get the rest of the Alts isn't?

Eventually they will be ours :D

Ungh, where to begin...

Mainly I'm mad I passed on the Energon gestalts and then when Classics Devastator came around I passed on him again too.... I feel like an idiot mouse who can't find the cheese in a maze.

I also passed on Energon Shockblast and RiD Scourge. I'd trade my Cyb. Scourge to have another shot at RiD Scourge at MSRP and not Ebay price. Same with the Energon combiners and Classics Devastator, I'd trade half of my collection to get my hands on them....

*sigh*

I hated passing on the entire alternators line. I came in just when Classics started and I didn't even look at the alts. Then I kick myself in the pants for missing the Hasbro toy shop sale for SDCC Rodimus.

When I lived in Okinawa I had a chance to get a repaint Fortress Maximus. I mulled over it for awhile but eventually I couldn't part with the money due to it having a different color scheme. That is probably my biggest regret.

i saw about 10 anniversary primes today at wal-mart but didn't have any money on. i'm still pissed about it right now. i'm sure they'll be long gone in the morning. by the way, they also had like 15 classics jetfires out which was shocking and i wanted to pick up another one of those too but couldn't.

I used to regret not getting the Reissue G1 Ultra Magnus but since I was able to get my hands on one last week, I'm now as happy as a clam.

I regret not buying a G2 Decepticon Symbol belt buckle I saw at Virginia Beach. They had 3, 20 bucks each.
