So.e got good deals above, now it's my turn.

I went toy hunting today with my friend and here's the result. First, he traded me his Legacy Scourge that he bought yesterday for my Legacy Laser Prime. That's his SECOND one and he commissioned me a light custom using it.

Then at a Walmart, I finally found a one of 5hose Beast exclusive, Nightprowler.

Then at a fleamarket downtown, I scored a brand new SS Bee Movie Thrust for 20$can, no tax.

And finally, something I never thought I'd ever buy. The X-Men Expance thing at a Marshall's.... Marked down at 25$can!

Today was a good day.

Massive congrats on that haul!



Thrift store bag lot of Attacktix, only one fully useable is Scourge. Still, kinda neat.
Also a random minotaur, which is at least good as an art ref for unguligrade legs.

OK smyths are at it again.

i dropped in because they were supposed to have 5 breakdowns in and he's the last lad i need for menasor.

and they DO have him in but im not paying near 30 quid for the guy. ill chance a reduction first.

but they also had 3 kickbacks going for 12 euro's each and hes isnt even showing on their website for my area anymore.

ive always liked the look of it and thats a good price so i got him. particularly as im gonna pick up shrapnel down the road and i presume bombshell next year when he get released. giving me a nice update to the lads.

at one of my local Targets I walked up to the isle just as the associate was putting out the first deluxes from legacy evo, grabbed a breakdown and left the rest (already have them).

I got some more stuff, both vintage and brand new

[LinaNui]

I am so excited for this guy. He came from Amazon. I went and preordered the rest of wave 1 last night. Can't wait to opeen him.

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Got some more G2 and some old movie stuff.

Middle of last week I got Burn and Skids because I still couldn't decide between the two (and was depressed ) And then yesterday, after my local targét after only have a stack of Leo Prime for weeks finally snuck a Tarn into the bunch and I GRABBED em. Haven't opened that one yet but will later today

Got that Knock-Out on sale?

Also, I'm looking forward to your impressions on that Elita-1 mold.

Nice, Inferno is the best thing in that haul

Boba and Logan are not amused and will remember this blatant disrespect.

And it's been a week, but I forgot to say that I also need to get the Colossus/Juggernaut 2-pack. Those are 2 of my favorite X-Men (and Marvel overall) characters.

Lego Paul Walker ain't amused either.

Here's another haul of mixmatched stuff.

Got that Knock-Out on sale?

Yes and no. I paid full price for him then and there but I have a coupon so through an eventual exchange/return, he'll come out to having been on sale. With TRU using the same SKU for all deluxes and having a return window of 90 days, I can always end up getting something for below their crazy price. Only reason I don't shop there much is because they don't even get new toys anymore outside of exclusives. They charge more than Walmart and Gamestop and get their toys later. Winning strategy.

The last time I got burned by TrU was for D.K Guard. I paid 15$ more for nothing because having waited just one more month, I could have gotten it at GameStop for 30$. Appart some exclusives and in case of a surprise sale, I won't bother shopping there anymore. Also, that receipt keeping in case of a sale? Pointless. Transformers (at least, those that matters) never, ever get on sale within that 90 days mark.

Also, that SS DotM Leader Optimus reissue when? If you spot it, please let me know. I would be surprised if it turn out to be the more common and easily available to find like that Velocitron Override.

$30 on Facebook marketplace, got really lucky there.

I should have a nice big haul to share today, one I am very excited for

Pulse packages arrived

Troop-building Freezers?

For what project?

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Troop-building Freezers?

For what project?

A) i regret passing on the KSI Sentry and Shadow Raiders, and even though I have 1 of each now, I regret not troopbuilding and getting at least 2 more each.

2) Scourge, Battletrap, and Nightbird will need reinforcements to make a proper Terrorcon squad, and Freezer is an affordable troopbuilder.

3) Each terrorcon will end up with 1 Freezer to use as a weapon, plus a few for robot mode and at least 1 for turret mode.

I'll just get one for my Scourge, but Freezer is indeed a logical trooper. Plus he will not take much space. I may get more, but only if found on sale.

SS core Arcee get!

Amazon is funny. For some reason, Core toys are sent in a box, fully protected while voyagers, or even 200$ dolls are sent in a bubble envelope...

I'm still waiting on them to send my Tarn. At this point, I don't care if they just wrap it in newspaper and put duct tape on it. As long as it gets here in one piece. Very uncharacteristic of Amazon to be dragging their feet like this.

Until I can find a RED galvatron I caved and picked up the battle cack free version along with toy cyclonus. The optional decepticon faction symbols with cyclonus will likely go on both of their chests to make them more uniform and cover up galvatron weird color symbol. Kinda makes me want a purple scourge even if he was never that color.

Where are the marvel legends colossus/juggernaut sets being bought from?
