So there I was, helping throw away all the damaged product at work today. I saw a TF movie toy and it was '74 camaro BB. So I HAD to save him from his death from the evil trash compactortron. Read the label saying why it was returned and such, said "car would not stay together" I looked at it, same old busted front I and I'm sure many had.

So now I'm going to fix the spring then re-paint the car and such. Sure it may be called stealing since it was in the store, but it was going to be thrown away. Throwing away a Transformer is like killing a person, ITS WRONG.

It was pure luck, if I didnt help the person from salvage throw away the stuff, I would not have saved a life. Too bad it wasnt the 08' BB or people on here would lynch me for getting one for free when they cant even find one. Annoys me alot when someone would try to throw away a TF.

So... you say you stole it from a dumpster... bah. I call that public domain and free for the taking.

I must be alone in this, but it's the '74 camero version I wanted.

Dumpster Diving for Fun and Profit. Gotta love it.

Good call. My brother used to work at Jamesway (I know I am dating myself there) and did that same job. He kept a big box of all of the lego sets that were supposed to be thrown away because they were missing pieces (he had to toss the packages, bu he kept the pieces), and brought them home for me. They never made it to the dumpster, so it was all good.

One man's trash is another man's treasure.

Congrats!

Hey there a topic that should be explored Dumpster Diving for Fun and Profit, or the amazing things people throw out.
