Yeah, I definitely was NOT disappointed by Lione, J-Rabbit -- looks bad ass on Hot Rod's transtector.

I ender up liking him more than Fangry, and I was certainly more excited about a flying werewolf than Steeljaw's long-lost cousin tbqh

I don't understand the difficulty with buying W3 TMs at Walmart. I grabbed an Overkill a few weeks ago with no trouble whatsoever.

As for hauls, I have 2, but since I'm pretty tired, I'll do one tonight and save the other one for tomorrow:

Good site in the background there, too.

Its localized. Walmarts have to update their software locally. I guess they didnt in some cases. Thats the difficulty.

Tiny (but awesome) haul today: TR Sawback/Lione. Great little toy, I absolutely love him.

Titan Master head-mode captures the look of the original soo much! The lion transector-thingy is really fun to transformer from mode to mode, and the Titan Master integration is really neat. I only wish more could've been done to make the lion look more like Lione, they could've given him his big head crest, and it would've been more recognizable as Lione. Oh well. Still a great toy though.
In order to buy him, I had to do what I did with Overboard, bring another TM to checkout. It took the lady a few minutes, but she was able to ring him up, he even showed up on the reciept as Sawback.

Why do you need so many brawns?

You can never have enough, right? :lol:

That was just the Titan Master that I used to get the price for Lione, as he wasn't gonna ring up. The lady messed up a bit, but she took off the Brawns, that's why it says "voided".

IT"S COMPUTRONICUS DAY! :KREMZEEK:

I few more scraps I've been able to scrape together over the past week. Sooooo slow to restock after the holidays around here. :roll:

Fruit Loops there is a $34 Rossicus sent via Red Stick, Careoftheone. He slid that hipster toy Slag in there too just for fun. So cute! I just wanna eat 'em! Thanks Cary!

I've yet to open the rest. They are just starring at me, mocking me and my real life responsibilities.

I braved the snowstorm to come back with nothing from TrU.

However, there is some tiny crumbs left from the very temporary Sear's toy section.
So I got myself RID Scorponock and a random pony for less than 12$ TOTAL. In Canadian dollars. Taxes included.
Very unfortunate that it was their last proper TF.

Congrats to Autobot N and Carytheone for their Computron goodness! Nice hauls to all.

Here's mine of the past 2 days.

Didnt find much at the thrift shop, just Scavenger and Rampage (who I always thought was a voyager).

Found more at Walmart and TRU

Way more!

Had a surprise find at a local salvage store chain here: Dark of the Moon Cyberverse Megatron Blastwave Weapons Base.

Yeah, didn't expect to find that. The box was trashed, but he only cost $3.25 so why not? They had the similar Starscream, too, but I passed on him. Megatron was in great shape, only thing damaged was the missile was a little bent, which is amazing considering how mangled the box was.

It's actually a really nice figure as most of the Cyberverse Commanders were (Hatchet and Powerglide were great!) that looks good in both modes. Megatron might even pull off bot to truck better than the matching Optimus does. :-?

The base is surprisingly nice as well, looking good in trailer mode, functions well in base mode, and OK in jet pack mode. Definitely a good deal!

Just got this guy, after being on the fence about him for a while. Finally bit the bullet, and I'm happy as a clam!

I need to start hitting up thrift shops...!

I do like Soundwave's TR face - the only reason I won't be getting him is cuz I bit the bullet on the MP Asia reissue.

Honestly, if you have the Hasbro MP Soundwave, it's pointless to have the TR Leader and the "iphone tapes". Having the MP Hasbro Soundwave myself, I really don't feel the need to own "close enough" Soundwave. Especially because I already own TR Blaster.

However, anyone who don't have the cash or are unwilling to pay for the MP, the TR is a great substitute.

The beauty of CHUGs - relative affordability ;)^

Hasbro MP Soundwave and MP Bluestreak are my only official MPs, but I just love 'em. If I could get Megatron 2.0 and Shockwave, I'd be more than satisfied!

They may not be official, but my MPP10 and Tyrant are personal faves.

I was resigned to owning TR SW a while ago despite not loving it. I was so happy when the MP reissue was announced. I agree that you don't need both (unless you're a completionist).
