So is he an exact rerelease of the ER 2-pack?

Dunno as I never got that 2 pack, I had to cancel 2 days before shipping due to a medical issue.

I ended up getting myself Legacy Evolution Armada Universe Megatron today purely on a whim and by chance from Target surprisingly. The girlfriend and I were out doing our errands and I needed to swing by the CVS Pharmacy at that Target to get my meds renewed. Overall, I am pretty happy with it overall, been feeling down recently and battling my dysthymic depression crap so it is a nice treat to help push me out of it for a bit. I'm always happy to acquire another Megatron for my collective.

Flea market hauls.

My friend was damn lucky to have found a brand new Netflix Cheetor, a lone PPC Combiner Crankcase, and a DOTM Commander Optimus Prime. The whole lot for 20$can!

On my end, for a big 5$can, I got a Legion Bee, a G1 Superion head, and two (vintage g1?) Micromasters.

Now, back from my local Geek store, I got the Legacy Nemesis and Leader Armada Megatron, plus Animated Samurai Prowl.

From eBay, I received the good old Warbot Defender that amount me to less than the price of a voyager with taxes, shipped!

Amazon and Target came through for me recently

Thanks to Prime Day and the fact that I got a 20$ for selling my soul to Amazon Photos, I finally got the SS Leader The Fallen at the price I wanted to pay. Meaning 40$can plus taxes or around the same price as a deluxe.

Found a couple Origin Jazzs at Target this morning. The peg still said they were full price, but when I scanned one it was 50% off so I grabbed it and finally cancelled my Target.com order.

Also got my MPG-04 from Deep Discount.

Had about 5 packages arrive over the past few days. Armada Optimus rules. Megatron is good but a bit vanilla. Copy Convoy is good as a beast and in those colors. Snarl sucks. Astrotrain is frikkin awesome. Tala is a welcome grab. and Grimlock is for someone who will be joining the family very very soon.

Man, I never realized how silly the box art for Legacy Armada Optimus Prime looks. He looks super deformed with that big head, barrel chest and short legs.

A package from BBTS arrived this weekend! Nothing Tformer related was on sale, just saw that these two where in stock and hadn't seen either in a store so figured what the heck. So far Brawn is a treat and I'm excited to open Axel up

That's a really great haul!
I really want to get that 3rd party Astrotrain. I haven't been able to pull the trigger because I keep thinking about how many mainline figures I can get for the price. I don't know, I may just have to do it! lol

Was a pretty big haul.

News Credits: 1646 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Tue Jul 18, 2023 8:28 pm

Couple more new packages arrived. I now only need 2 uses of the Big Convoy mold to complete all the repaints, and I now have the full Decepticon Velocitron roster. Sideswipe was a nice bonus, I didn't have the normal colored deluxe, and i got the Adventure one here to boot

Did you get the fins with that Dark Crumplezone?

Finally got Titan Nemesis in the mail today. I was honestly starting to think it was lost in the mail. I got a notice Monday that it was out for delivery but never showed up. Then Tuesday it changed into a all red text "alert" that it was "waiting for delivery scan" while Amazon said it would be shipped that day. Still nothing. Last night Amazon alerted me that it may have been lost and I should seek a refund if I don't have it by Wednesday night. Thankfully it was delivered today, but they ditched it at my mailbox which is a good quarter mile from my house since I live at the end of a private road, so they basically left it on the side of the road where none of the 13 houses here can actually see it. Thankfully someone was nice enough to actually pick it up and drop it off at my house, I'm guessing either my parents or my sister since they're both neighbors to me. Either way I got it, no thanks to USPS. :roll:

That was what pop up on the top results of my search. So those must be the legit lyrics. :-?

BTW, "lazy" postmen are everywhere. I'm at home, right there, but the postmen won't bother ringing the bell and just slip in the notice in my mailbox. :roll:

I went to Walmart for groceries and I got what may be the only Earthspark figure I'll ever buy, Warrior Elita-1. She was on sale and I expect this one to be MUCH better than the Legacy.

As for Tarn, he was full price and I hated it. But he's "rare" and an important IDW character. This time around I know what to expect and I'll be extremely careful when transforming him. Especially dealing with that fragile chest panel.
