I picked up a Fast Action Battler Ramjet today. He is painted very nicely, as all the FAB repaints seem to be a clear improvement over the very bland originals. I also was looking at "Smokescreen"(in quotes since I cannot accept a blue and red Jazz as a Smokescreen), but he doesn't seem to have much of a face! The visor is painted on, but everything beneath lacks any discernible features.
Also saw a Nightwatch Prime, the first I've seen of the All Spark line. Plenty of original movie toys at Wal-Mart and TRU, but I no sign of any deluxe or voyager All Spark figures. I saw a AT-AT SW TF, but passed on it for now since the robot mode looks kind of goofy.

Anyway, I was on my way to my hotel near Baltimore, and stopped at some s-hole WalMart on Rt 40. I initially went in to look for Disney Cars for my son. I quickly scanned the TF selection, hoping to find some clearanced Classics or Alternators. Anyway, I noticed a box that didn't match all the movie toys. I grabbed it, and lo and behold, it was a Masterpiece Starscream. I went to the nearest price scanner, and it rang up at $30. Needless to say, he's in my trunk now. Is that a good deal? The box isn't perfect, and I'm not 100% sure I'll keep him. However, finding out I made $1500 in commission last month is making me think perhaps I can find a space for him. I never had a Starscream as a kid, so this is pretty cool. Plus, when my son gets older, he'll be able to play around with him.

Welcome.
Yes, that IS a good price.
Those (like me) who pre-ordered payed $90 for him and his typical ebay selling price is between $50 and $60.
So, if you feel like making even more money...

Got one of those KO G1 Mirages and he's surprisingly good for a KO, his plastic seems alittle light and his wheels have abit too much play but other than that he's nice, quite abit of metal on this little figure.
Oh yeah, one problem - he has two right fists
oh well, that's KO's for yay I guess.
I feel dirty all over for putting him in with all my Takara & Hasbro G1 stuff
Wasn't it rumoured that this crowd would KO Wheeljack next?

First glances of the figure is that it is packaged similar to how Ult. BB was packaged, if you got the Costco version. He is not packaged as a car but as a robot. Also, he is a lighter colored silver and blue. Beyond that I cannot much else until I get the figure out of the package.

My girlfriends buddy gave me all his old G1 Transformers a few weeks ago. they were just sitting in a box at his mom's. They weren't in the best condition but still pretty cool. Shrapnel, Grapple, all the Constructicons except for Bonecrusher and quite a few mini bots. I was more that ok with it!

Went back to Target today, and they had the rest of the AllSpark Deluxes. Got me a Cliffjumper to go with my Landmine.
So I thought that was about it, 'til I noticed a bunch of Voyagers by the Movie-Screen figs. I saw a speck of yellow-green..."Could it be?" I finally completed my original Movie collection with Autobot Ratchet! w00t!!

My Technobot set arrived in the mail today. It's in fairly good shape with only a little bit of paint wear and some sticker wear. It came with all of its parts and accessories. That means I'm not half way to reaching my goal of getting the G1 Combiner sets!

Wow! Many of ya'll just recently got Nightwatch Prime... That's great news. At least I won't have to go to eBay to get one.
So, now that you all have Nightwatch Prime, anyone care to divulge any details?
I want to get the toy, but I wanna hear some opinions first.

Mmn...I think I might pass on this. Hated leader-class Prime to begin with, and "nightwatch" deco doesn't help. May convince myself to pick up a voyager Prime if I happen to run across one again when I have money enough to buy it though.
My vote for the HOF goes to my favorite Transformer, Kup, to the Headmasters (who still need new figures that aren't just the characters without their master components) and to seibertron.com for for being the ultimate TF resource.

I finally won a Classics Bumblebee off of ebay...
Paid waay too much, but with the new Classics coming out, I knew I wanted one, and I had already decided I didn't want the Takara repaint.
And I also received a Classics Mirage in the mail a couple days ago.
My Classics collection is almost complete!!
Minus HotRod, who I have zero interest in.
