Despite that I did have really good luck today. Hit Target and finally got my Rainmakers, then went to Walmart and got my Jetfire. Expensive, but so worth it. Jetfire is a great figure, I've been playing around with him all evening. There are a few parts that are a bit too stiff like the little folding tabs on his chest and folding pegs while other parts like the pegs that hold his wrists in place are a bit loose. They put so much thought into him, he feels like a mid to late 2000s Leader class like Cybertron Optimus Prime or Revenge of the Fallen Optimus Prime, not in size and bulk obviously, but care and thought. They knew what they wanted and wasn't concerned about things like too many small parts or using too much plastic leading to large caps to make it work. Compared to smaller Titans, Combiner teams and MPs, for the size and complexity $80 feels like the right price. Can't wait to see what they come up with next!

You mean the Prime armor gimmick? Yeah. That somehow works even worse than the attempts to integrate the HFGs as into non-combiner modes in Combiner Wars figures. At least both are easy to leave off.
I'm digging through obscure early 2000s stuff to possibly get. I want to fill out my BW/Unicron Trilogy/2003 Universe shelf a bit more with some esoteric nobodies. Picked up the RiD Nightcruz/Mirage GT/Scavenger pack and am considering other such obscure dorks as BM/Universe Blastcharge, RiD Storm Jet, and BM Night Viper.

Well, first off, I found a 99% complete DOTM Skyhammer for $5. But the best part?
I GOT TO MEET MARK RYAN!!! (The voice of Bumblebee, Jetfire, Lockdown, and Bulldog in the movies!)
He was really nice, we got to talk about the movies for a little bit, I got a signed picture, and he signed my MPM Bumblebee!

Also got this shirt, my childhood combined with my passion. It's great! It also makes it clear we need a duck billed dinobot
