Hello one and hello all! Got a bunch of stuff to dump on you guys today!
First up, we got a haul from Saturday. Went to a football game and decided to stop by Walmart that day. I found my Slugslinger, completing my 87 seeker squad!
I honestly can't decide which one I like more. All 3 are really cool, and they are all fairly different too. I am a bit upset with myself though cause I was transforming slugslinger to bot mode and I forgot to untab the arms from the legs, so I really janked up the tabs on his arms
In other news, I decided I couldn't wait, since he was beginning to disappear from listings, so I used an alternate, older email to get the HTS 20% off coupon and bought this big mamba jamba Thursday afternoon! He arrived Saturday while I was away, and I didn't discover him until Sunday afternoon, so he sat in the 20 degree cold for a day. But oh was he worth it!
He is definitely the best of the city titans. He is not a lazy city or base, there is transformation involved, actual transformation, and he is so frikkin cool! He doesn't beat Devastator as my favorite Titan, but he is the best of the city titans, no doubt.
And thanks to these hauls, the clones are the only guys left from TR to find! Which means I am pretty much done for the year in terms of retail figures! Yay!
And MP-36 is starting to come in stock, which means I should be hearing about mine soon, and the same goes for Firage.
I am really hoping I don't get burned by a chinese seller with Cogman though. The guy had plenty of feedback, and 2 people had already bought the figure. But I'm still worried. Iron Factory Windblade is still fresh in my mind. And it was looking like, and still is looking like, I can't get him any other way. But still, grrr. The fact that I pre-ordered War Hammer Bee to get his TLK self is kinda sad too.
I've basically given up on legion Dragonstorm and Hound. They are just too few and too expensive, much like Cogman and Bee.
I think I'm also done with RiD. I'm not concerned with getting the last 2 legions I wanted there, seeing as how I have them in other regards, and still no stock images or listings for Saberclaw or Primelock, though I would still like to find them.
I also decided to cancel my pre-order for movie the best Nemesis Prime. I don't really need the mold again, and that money will go towards Greatshot. I'm also going to get pre-orders for Barricade and maybe Dinobot, the price is really the only thing still stopping me there.
So, how are you guys? 10 days till Thanksgiving, anyone got any special plans?
