Picked some stuff up from Target on the last day of the sales. Cyberverse turned out to be a much bigger deal than I thought it would be, so some important characters needed toys got, no matter the quality!

And the irony of getting Repugnus while wearing a Repugnus!

Ugh, you're a squealers fan. :SICK:

May you have better luck with your Rampage than I did.

Urgh… I got a so many figures that came misassembled like this. 2017 was a horrible year for QC because they were just starting their Vietnam factories.
Look like there's still some ironing out to do.

I should have gotten my MP Lio Convoy Tuesday, too, but once again DHL drops the ball. They updated Monday that it had arrived in Boston, no big deal, that's the closest facility. But then Tuesday I get an email from USPS saying they have it and it's being delivered Tuesday. Normally when DHL hands off a package to USPS the tracking says so, but not this time. DHL can never decide if my house is in a normal delivery area or too out of the way so I can never predict what they're going to do. Anyway, to make things even stranger is the package never showed up, yet the tracking still said it was out for delivery by 5pm through most of the evening. Even now it both says out for deliver Tuesday and Wednesday. :roll:

What sucks is that I know they wont deliver it because they're going to expect someone to be available to sign for it and there wont be. If they had missed the deliver Tuesday I could go pick it up Wednesday, but if they try to deliver again Wednesday I won't have a chance to pick it up until late next week.

Anyway, forgot to mention my SS car Soundwave and motorcycle sisters showed up over the weekend from Target.

Between Email and text, I ussually just do a signature release and have them leave it.

I was just going to say the same thing. Any of my AJP deliveries, this is the first thing i do. Unless you have to watch for some shady biz with porch pirates; then YMMV.

So, I wrote in to Hasbro a little while back, about my defective Studio Series Rampage. They said they would send a replacement but couldn't guarantee they'd have a spare of that specific figure, in which case they would send another from the same assortment (meaning size class).

I got SS05 Optimus Prime. Not sure whether to keep him as a travel-size Movie Optimus, or sell or trade him.

I have signature releases on file with both DHL and USPS, but unfortunately they get ignored in cases like this. If DHL delivers the package they'll just drop it off, if a package originates from USPS then USPS will drop it off, but if a package starts with DHL and is handed off to USPS for delivery both releases get ignored by USPS because they can't see the DHL release and it isn't their own package so they can't use their own release.

And as expected:

I'll attempt redelivery and note the signature releases in the instructions, but if that doesn't work I'll be seeing him Thursday or Friday next week.

Turtler and Gulf aren't part of this haul, but a group shot does the newbies more justice!

Finished off Earthrise wave 1 with 2 Soundbarriers from Target and my 3rd Ironworks from the Hasbro Pulse Black Friday 20% off deal. This Ironworks ended up being the most expensive of my 3. I got 2 as soon as they appeared and was able to buy 2 more at BOGO 50% at target last week then immediately return them for full price from my original receipt.

Nice Earthrise figure Z3ROhour I also got myself a micro figure. Cyberverse Tiny Turbo Changers and i found Wave 1 Drift

I was looking through the figure codes until i noticed someone had opened one of them. But after i glimpsed/spotted the white toy, i just went to the a self-service checkout and paid for it like a good collector. (Most of the other wave 1 figures are ugly and this is my 1st)

Now my PotP Prime Master/Pretender Bludgeon has a respectable decent sized rival.

As expected, USPS refused to drop of my Lio Convoy on the redelivery, still demanding a signature. :roll:

Most likely I'll pick it up Friday.

On the bright side I got my Earthrise Grapple and Starscream in from Pulse and my third Siege Refraktor from Amazon. Sandpaper is at the ready.
