I found a miracle listing on eBay to complete my G2 Bruticus.
The 2 missing missiles plus 2 missiles for a G2 Optimus (that I don't have) for 24.75$US shipped! Yeah, at first glance it look expensive, but I was expecting to pay that much for just ONE missile.

G2 Bruticus, 100% complete and in great condition at last!

Got some good stuff this past week. First pic is stuff I picked up in Vegas while there for work and second is stuff I got from a friend or other places. The megs with upgrade kit was only $50 (which I think is fantastic).

Got Nova Prime!

And that a big sturdy box.
It's an Amazon exclusive?

Got the Amazon Deadeye Duel 2-pack and Nacelle from Pulse. Haven't opened Nacelle yet. Nova Prime only just shipped today despite being charged the same day as the other two.

I FOMO'd on the Amazon Exclusive Nacelle.

Then, I had no choice but to buy on eBay what used to be a very common and cheap toy to get not so long ago: ER Ironworks. Why? I'll customise it by spraying anything that is not gray in silver to make the city bits for my Select Black Zarak.

Got Legacy Bludgeon and Dreadwing from the Gamestop sale. Added a few other things to get 20% off and decided to get a Pro membership to save a little more.

Gamestop sale? And they actually had Dreadwing in stock? WTH. I'm still waiting on amazon to ship mine after charging for him last week

**** modern iterations, a lot of characters just get shoe horned in and they lose their original gimmicks that made them cool. Like Mr Cranky! There's so much silly satisfaction in pressing buttons on the Triggerbots/cons and watching the weapons deploy. Yeah, I'm easily amused.

Anyhoo, these two were the final pieces I needed to complete the teams. I now have all three Powerdashers and all three Triggercons (and Triggerbots) and none of the modern interpretations because they wish they were as cool as the originals.

But they're not.

Yeah, I posted about it in the Steal thread. Those two were late additions that came in stock in the last couple days of the sale.

The guns are a little sticky and took a bit of force initially to pull his legs out, but after a few transformations he's loose but still very solid. Guns are still a bit sticky at times but they're still functional, and that's what makes him so fun.

I got a hodge-podge of stuff this week

I randomly went to my local geek store today.
Lo and behold, he was putting the SS86 Ultra Magnus and Select Antony on his shelves.

Don't mind if I do.

My ES Grimlock arrived, along with some more Bionicle. I'll have more to share, I have a bunch of boxes that I haven't got to open yet.

I decided on some Tank Bots. My first new TF's since MP Tigatron, I believe?

Went to Walmart and they had a surprise restock of the G2 Transformers.

So I got myself a spare Sideswipe to trade just in case. as a X-Mass gift for my friend. I also finally caved in for OrangeJazz'd.

Side note. In Canada (or at least in Québec), Walmart won't carry any alcohol. The beer comes from a proper grocery store.

A Toy Snowman haul.

For my friend, who used to never care about any Beastformers until he finally saw Beast Wars, the Netflix Optimus Primal and Rattrap set. Plus, he got their last Walmart Reissue Astrotrain at 40$CAN.

To have free shipping, and because I was eyeing it for so long, BALVITRON for me! 100$CAN is expensive, but it's barely 5$CAN more than if I had bought it the original way via the app. I would have had to pay shipping on top of that , plus most likely, custom fees. So, 100$ + tx and free shipping is cheaper! Plus, it was their last one.

I really love that set. For me, it's what a G2 Soundwave, Lazerbeak, and Ravage could have been. So, he's not my "G2 Soundwave!"

Oh, I also got the small ROTF Pablo and an extra Targetmaster Rhinox from TrU.

Got a few things:

Got a replacement Legacy Nacelle from Amazon to replace the one Pulse canceled. Mine only had a couple little specs of fuzz on the left wing, but also had a speck on the left shoulder and right hip. Take that as you will.

Found Legacy Evolution Trashmaster at Target Thursday morning.

Got Selects Antagony from Pulse today. I have three other things coming from Pulse next week.
