Transformers Toy haul thread

Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff? Please post your's and see others in the Transformers Collections Forum.

Friday and Saturday, hit five WalMarts, three Targets, two TrU, KB and two KMarts.

Total haul by store:
4th WalMart- Treadbolt (for a friend, already got one awhile ago). Other WM's had practically nothing. A few Blitzwings, but that was all.
Targets- NOTHING at all. All of the stores I hit had little to no stock of TF's. No new exclusives, no Magnus, nothing. Quite disappointing.
TrU- Score! Got a WWI Grimlock at the second TrU. Saw Prowl but passed. The shoulders are WAY too big in my opinion.
Anyone see the football robots that have transforming heads? The bot mode is really well done.
KB- Buy three, get one free deal going on. Too bad they didn't have three things worth buying. Besides, with their prices, if you bought three things, you've basically paid for a fourth anyway.
Finally, KMart- One of the least appreciated stores with not-so-great prices had 2 Ultra Magnus'! Sure, no LC sale like WM and no $10 off coupon like Target, but where those two stores let me down, KMart came through.

Also hit a small collectible store and got seven of the old happy meal food Transformers. They're so cheesy that they're cool.

On a side note, my six-year-old daughter wants Bakugan for Christmas. I've checked all the above stores in the entire south-central PA/northern Maryland region and NO ONE HAS THE BLOODY THINGS! Just empty shelves everywhere, with little teasing price markers. :evil:
If anyone has access to these things, particularly the three-packs, please let me know.

dude good luck. all the stores i go to always have the bakugan shelves being empty. the guys at TRU tell me they get one case like every other day. there is such a heavy back order on them. they cant keep them in stock, because no one is getting them. get her the BEN 10 alien force figures. they are better.

Weapon: Liquid Flame-Thrower
TFA Sentinel Prime. A much nicer figure than I first thought, although the arm articulation (or lack of) is a bit annoying. Still, thumbs up generally! Next on the list: TFA Swoop and TFU Sideswipe!

That's a great deal, I LOVE my animated Magnus!

Anywho, I picked up Armada Predacon which will be retrofitted into a better classics Grimlock. IMO Classics Grimmy is just too small.

A second Animated StarScream, again for future repainting. Snagged it for an awesome price on the bay.

Roadbuster Dirge 2-pack. Nice. I'm happy with these. $30 was a bit steep, but pretty good. I really like both molds.

A couple Target scout class guys to go with my war-bots. A gray off road guy and a tan Jeep. They'll flesh out my cannon fodder. Both totally worth $5 on sale.
For Sale:
Classics Magnus/Skywarp 2 pack MIB
Classics Devastator MIP
HA Sideswipe K-Mart exclusive color Loose

Currently looking for:
ROTF Target exclusive Sideswipe from the 2-pack
TFCC Punch/Counterpunch
Alternity Primes, silver & white versions
(opened is OK, to be used for customs)

PM If interested

TRU- Titanium Grimlock.

This surprised me. I haven't been hanging around much on the forums, so I'm not sure how lucky I got here ... probably not at all I would imagine. I was just overly happy to get my hands on the figure. Why?

Well, the license plate on my car reads as follows ... GRIMLOK. I'll let you figure out what kind of car, and what color it is.

Motto: ""Excessive force is not necessary.""
Gots me a Premium Movie Prime yesterday at Target for a tidy $26 (they allowed me to use the $10 TFA leader coupon I'd been saving for TFA Magnus on it, plus it was on sale.
Altogether, i'm pleased even though I already have the Movie Prime with the blaster. This one looks much more dynamic posed with his blade, especially with the updated head mold. Wouldn't touch any of the other premium figs (besides Megs), but this one is pretty cool.

Mr Postman has brought me many exciting things over the last couple of days...

I've got the Dirge/Roadbuster and Springer/Ratbat 2-packs from Robot Kingdom, I got WW Grimlock and finally Big Convoy, Magmatron and Magnaboss who are gonna be my Xmas presents to myself!

By the way does anyone remember when it was that Don Fig posted those early pictures (before we knew whether it was gonna get a release) of WW Grimlock with 3" Bumblebee?

Ehm... Silver Ford Mustang (with gold trimming)? Just a hunch from his Alt/BT incarnation :-B

Remember when I said I'd get either Animated Blackarachnia or Movie Premium Jazz later? I got neither:

Movie Autobot Jazz (regular)

It's a consolation prize, really. There's a collector's fair going on this weekend, but I'm a little short on (spendable) money (I could easily spend 150 euros on those fairs) so I'm not going.
Why the regular over the Premium you ask? Simple: I'm terribly anal about chipped paint. Premium Jazz is mostly black plastic with silver paint, and every single one I've seen had a small defect in it.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

- Jelze Bunnycat =:3

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him :()
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1
- Legacy Core Slug, Sludge & Snarl
