Thanks to that 20% off HTS code, I got CW Leader Starscream and G2 Menasor.

Thanks to an awesome weekend at C2E2, I got Generations Doubledealer, Classics Stormcloud, and the new Legends Chop Shop and Shockwave.

So the new wave of minicons came to town and while I'm not a big fan of them, I just felt like some new plastic.

I grabbed Swelter, making him my third RID minicon, and also the second to have problems with.

His left hand armour attachment simply will not plug in, no matter how hard I push on it. Probably end up just gluing it in.

So 2/3 of my minicons have had problems, with the other being Slipstream who just came packaged without one of his shoulder armours. At least Sawback is fully functional.

Hey, guys! Look at the TF section of my local TrU and Walmart!

Same down here south of the boarder too. Might as well be Halloween. Everywhere is a TF ghost town.

Actually, stores in my area are quite well stocked with combaticons, sky lynx-bots, onslaught, and that ugly piece of **** Hasbro is trying to call scattershot.

True. We do have a good supply of Sky Reign limbs.
Iron, I know there not really your thing, but have you seen any new waves of RID Warrior Class? I haven't seen any new waves since before the holidays.

TRU Brighton was devoid of almost anything Transformers related, save for Age Of Extinction Deluxe Dinobots and RID Bumblebee and Sideswipe (grey). They also had those huge Grimlock things with the trigger.

I'm just on the hunt for Menasor accessories for G1 now. :T

I've seen both Fracture and Megatronus several times, but they sell out very quick.

I may just bite the bullet and HTS Megatronus. The current sale is kind of hard to resist.

You mean the warrior? You dont have him yet?

lol.

In all seriousness - I'm getting MP Hotrod for my birthday. So theres my future haul.

Sorry Am, I couldn't understand you with all those black letters, so I abused my power and fixed your post. :lol:

I hope you like Hotrod. IMO he is really great, and far out does the negativity he's gotten.

Will, the only new wave Warrior I have seen in the wild is Fracture. Whom I already have. No MegaT, no arctic repaints, no nothin'! For the first time in over a year, CW is actually out shining RID on the shelves here.

In all seriousness, this is probably one of the biggest TF hauls I will have in my lifetime simply because it's...

Congrats to have finally bitten the bullet and got yourself Encore FortMax, Will! ;)^

Thanks to the ridiculous number of units produced that lead to silly overstock and killer sale prices, you and me both were allowed into the previously exclusive Owner Of FotMax Club!

Do you feel you got your money's worth?

News Credits: 1642 · by **D-Maximal_Primal** » Mon Mar 21, 2016 7:22 pm

Now that is an awesome find!! Congrats Will!!! :MAXIMAL:

Cool pick up will, I forgot you were getting that honking piece of plastic love. That sword is redonk!

Much like everyone else and the opposite of the weather; the TF pickin's are slim and dry down here in the bayou.

If you dig around a bit you can find the Sky Reign limbs here and there and I've spotted the RID wave that includes Fracture in bits and pieces.

Still no sign of my prey yet; Sky Lynx and the newest CW Legends wave (Chop Shop and friends).
