You can read more about Lena here in the seller's feedback thread. It's very hit or miss since its all factory rejects. And the stock changes every week so one week they might have Cloud Shockwave, while other times (like now and more often than not) it's just my little pony toys and naked dolls.

Cloud Shockwave: I don't know if this is worth 80$ but the plastic is of such better quality than anything that came out these past years and the premium paint job is amazing (And Cobotron, there's translucent plastic!).

And then there's Transformable Robot Justice Hero and Dark Influence, KOs of Animated Activators.

Still waiting on my Shockwave from Lena. I'm surprised it hasn't arrived yet as the Megatron [DOTM Voyager] I bought (a day before buying shockwave) arrived on friday, though the estimated ship date for both was in early march...

Oh no, sorry to hear that. It has happened once that a package never got to me. They refunded me the money but I would have much rather have gotten the package.

Did this happen from Lena specifically? I don't mind getting the money back like you said, but yeah, it'll be a shame if it never arrives.

Yes from Lena, hence why i mentioned it.

For giggles, I picked up a CW powerglide today. Nifty little figure. I didn't realize he turned into a gun for the big combiners. That's pretty cool.

Kapow has shipped my Takara Windblade! :DANCE:

Sun Feb 22, 2015 9:43 am

Got Voyager Silverbolt. He's quite nice.

News Credits: 101 · Sun Feb 22, 2015 10:26 pm

I came close to buy the entire Superion at TrU today. However, it's fun to be able to eat so I settled for only RID WC Strongarm today.

She's panelly, but both modes look great, despite the "hand guards" I love the way we can store her gun under the vehicle mode and the transformation is quite interesting. Posability of the arms is impeded by the limited shoulders. Still, overall, a nice addition to my fembot collection. I love that BIG MAMMA!
However, 23$CAN taxes included for a deluxe is a bit rough.

They're third party Seekers that transform into the tetrajet forms seen in the pilot episode of Generation One. 3P group "Impossible Toys" makes them. They're going for incredibly cheap prices over at TFSource.

Your quite welcome

The Seeker is the Impossible Toys Solarblast, who was/is on heavy clearance at bbts, i think $14. Very fiddly, but the jet mode does look pretty good. still only go for it if you can get it cheap

Well, something one wouldn't expect here... Actually one would, as this assortment was found mostly in Europe:

Prime Beast Hunters Deluxe Class Twinstrike

Appeared last week at Intertoys (I saw Smokescreen, Twinstrike and Bumblebee), and went on sale for only €10 ($12) instead of the original €20 ($24) and the lower sale price of €15 ($18). Thing is, stock is limited and they're going slowly (Smokescreen were gone by today). I asked if what was on the shelves was all they had, in the hopes of me scoring a Windrazor. Sadly that was the case, nothing in the back. Guess I'll have to hunt some more.

For those who have spotted Windrazor, which variation is it? For those curious, Deluxe Windrazor came in two decos: one looking like the original Legion, and another which has a deeper green, grey and a duller matte purple among other changes. You can read more about it here:

Beast Hunters Deluxe Class vs. Cyberverse Legion Class Windrazor & Twinstrike on Ofensau.wordpress.com (German & English)

*EDIT* I just checked the stamp on the Twinstrike card: 33581, which is the same as the later "grey" variant! :shock:

JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Upscaled DELUXE Cyberverse Thingamaging!

I never saw any of these locally. That was quite a find!

Now allow me to show the most expensive haul to date:

Gutto Kurru TF Masterfore Ginrai, Hasbro Generations Arcee and Chromia, and the very first re-issue of G1 Megatron!

G1 Megs is used, but like new with the stickers unnaplied. I will dress him up shortly. He was relatively cheap at roughly 165$CAN shipped.

However, the BBTS lot... Even if the Ginrai figure was more than half off, that lot was more than 200$CAN shipped, hefty custom fee included. Still, at least I have the girls and Ginrai will be fantastic beside my God Ginrai!

From that my Windrazor is the first variant (got him a discount shop). I am after the double strike though for my predacons (and collection of terrorcon molds)

So uh, yeah. You don't NEED that Action Master Tracks, do you? I could take that troublesome thing off your hands if you like! Free of charge, just for you!

Your offer is soooooo tempting! Let me think about it for a 100 years and I'll get back to you

If you want one, be quick because they're selling out! In fact, I went out in the rain to hunt for this guy, because well, I never spotted him. Until now:

Prime Beast Hunters Deluxe Windrazor (grey variant)

Yup, as predicted we only got the 2nd variant here. Got the only one they had on the shelves, and truth be told, the grey one looks like an upgraded version or even a new character (if you stretch it a little).

Now I only need the big Predaking and Ripclaw, then I'm set with the Beast Hunters Predacons.
