Ruination small guns (2)

Technobot Strafe (completes my Computron 100%)
Alternators Sideswipe

Now I'm just waiting for a Transformers LP record (??) and a Powermaster Prime/ God Ginrai reissue to arrive. Really, really excited about the God Ginrai.

Almost a week ago, I won a lot of TF's which included MOSC Lugnutz, RID Optimus ("Excellent Shape") and a MIB God Magnus (car robots)...all for 35 bucks (Including shipping).

Last night I won a G2 Laser Rod Sizzle, and finally broke down and got a WST Megatron.

This morning I picked up a Stormjet at a local Kaybee toys. Someday I'll get the other 3 jets to make Superion Maximus (I already have Windrazor)...

From eBay, NISB Energon Snowcat and Armada Hoist, nice Dlx-sized figs. Also, from HTS, Heros of Cybertron Optimus Prime, Souhndwave, and Ultra Magnus. Yay!

Movie Wingblade and Titanium War within Optimus Prime and Megatron came today
The boxes are trashed and the box that they came in was even worse :shock:

Found Target Exclusive Scout Air Raid at a Target that I don't normally go to...

All I have left to buy from the Movie line is:
Deep Space Starscream
Premium Jazz
Scout Clocker

I may pick up an Evac later, but right now I doubt it.

I've been wondering how long before some of the Movie figures (older waves) go on sale.
What do you guys think?

Had to resort to hunting/stalking my local TRU for the Ultras after TRU.com screwed me...but today paid off finally. One nice crispy, minty fresh Jetstorm :grin:

(I know, whoopie compared to these other hauls 8-}

)

Now if they'll get an equally good Wingblade in I'll be a happy camper!

I got my replacement PM Prime black guns in the mail today, which was sweet.

What is not cool, is that they shipped all the way from New York, yet I still haven't received my reissue Galvatron & Star Convoy which I won 3 days earlier and only have to come from Quebec. It's been almost 3 weeks, I'm 3 days away from reporting them as not received. :-x

Managed to get a Binaltech Tracks, Galaxy Force Exigeyser and Backguild (yes, the sought after voyager), brand new from retail for less than £20

Today my Henkei Optimus and Megatron arrived.
Both look very good, I'm very happy and glad with these purchases.

Also, my Japanese versions of Stockade and Landmine (both come with a mini Allspark cube).
Pretty cool imo.

This was a huge week for me. I picked up 99% of the Classics line. Ultra Magnus vs. Skywarp, Optimus Prime, Megatron, Jetfire, Rodimus, Mirage, Grimlock, Cliffjumper, Bumblebee, Astrotrain, and Ramjet. I also picked up the small handguns to complete my Raiden set. I will post pics when everything comes in. :grin:

On Friday, I went to my TRU and I found Wave 1 of Animated! Ahead of schedule and in a TRU in Quebec, no less!

I bought Bruce Campbell/Paul Bunyon/The War Within Optimus and Bumblebee. Transforming them is surprising complicated. Bumblebee's bumper got stuck and his chest wouldn't lock into place in car mode, but it's okay now.

Montreal ComicCon Haul:

- Marvel TF G1 #9 [1st appearance of Circuit Breaker, 13, 15, 28, 31 [Car Wash of Doom], 36, 45 [Return of Circuit Breaker]

Yeah there is a lot of stuff there. More Transformers were there, but they were all missing vital parts (arms, legs, heads) so I just passed on them. There is one vender there that strictly sells only KO's. But you gotta get there early... I totally missed out on a Beast Wars Transmetal Optimus Primal when some man grabbed it and quickly stashed it in his shopping bag, right before my very eyes!

I was like, "Nooooooooooooooooooo!!!!". :-x

Today another of my holy grail arrived directly from Japan:

Takara C-69 Diaclone Blue Reissue Ultra Magnus (MISB)

Now I finally completed my C-69 Reissue trios

My pursuit of these C-69 reissues was inspired by Netboy's collection pic (photo credit: Netboy), now I get to enjoy the 5 brothers lined up just for me too!

Cheers,
