I know they are small but they are still nice figures to have. I just wanted to know how magnus looks out of the box.

How it looks like from the box? It looks like Pat Lee Magnus from the War & Piece comic cover :grin:

I actually like it since it reminds me of that cover.

Still, I think the custom of Rev. UMagnus and Shockwave were awesome! Too bad, it requires Rev. Megatron/Magnus to make it works since it's only an upgrade kit and not a full action figure.

how'd you pick that up? ebay?

Yep... got it for $35 shipped.

I know that's $25 more than the US retail price, but I don't want to wait till the end of June to get one. Not to mention I probably won't be able to find one around here when they do come out anyway.

wow, i thought the going rate for an early one would be more than that atm, however, i haven't ebay'ed in a while. good find.
pics?

I don't have a big haul to brag about today, but considering what I got, it's all good. Yesterday I picked up a MISB Cybertron Wing Saber for about $20 US. The best part? I got it at Toy's R Us!

Came home from work yesterday to find a Wonderfest Dai Atlas waiting for me. The removable thumb on the gun hand is not my favourite innovation of all time and posability is about as limited as the Mega SCF Star Sabre, but it's a damned fine looking piece.

As soon as it is in my hand, I most certainly will be posting pics. Probably a video review also.

Just ordered a Skyblast off of eBay, don't have a Target near me so it'd cost the same amount for gas as it does shipping.

That and even if you had a Target near you I’m not sure you would find him. I haven’t see a Skyblast in my area in ages.

Good work on the books. I was able to pick up the Armada guidebook at a local drug store back when it was new, but never saw the one for Energon.

As for today's haul...does the Hasbro Toy Shop catalog that made news for having the page of Animated inventory count? Got that and a pick up slip yesterday. Slip was to go in today and pick up Henkai Megatron, so that's in my hands now.
