Got Warpath in yesterday. Great little figure- the partsforming piece seems like a bit of a copout, and the tolerances are a bit wibbly here and there but I do like the transformation and both modes look great.

It's a custom, but it's a custom of an official figure. I got my Marvel Ratchet!

This totally count and the job is well done!

That's awesome!

I'm still mustering up the courage to customize mine.

Dinobot finally arrived this past week! And I found Netflix Cheetor! They look fantastic next to the others (going to be using Generations T30 Rhinox and Rattrap, think they look better than the Kingdom versions).

Still need to find Airrazor to complete my updated BW S1 characters display, on top of Scorponok and hopefully Tigatron when they release (using Generations T30 Waspinator here).

Fort Alarm Clock will be well protected until I can find somewhere else to display them all together.

Omega!!!
He is freaking awesome!! Originally was planning on having only Trypticon from the Titan Class, but when I saw Omega in stock at BBTS I couldn't resist. Love how I can kind of re-create the scene from "Blaster Blues" where Omega catches Astrotrain in his claw hand.
Also got studio series Starscream who is also amazing. Very unique alt mode and looks great.
Found Kingdom inferno at Walmart and he looks good with Grapple. Nice set of "twins."

The fact that Siege Omega Supreme can hold Siege Astrotrain in his claw like this, arm extended, with no need of extra support is absolutely fantastic and impressive!

Thanks to a buddy for 1 piece and ebay for the other, I secured a G1 Slamdance over the past week. My BBTS POL also arrived and included a highly anticipated upgrade kit

Yup! So awesome!
Love the civil war sig by the way!

[Evil Eye]

Got the TT Volcanicus set in today. I gotta be honest, I like them a whole lot more than I was expecting.

The combined mode isn't perfect, but it's still pretty cool. I have the upgrade reissue on preorder but even without them it's a pretty decent gestalt.

Look what I found at my Walmart for 45$can!

Now to see if I'll keep it to trade for Shitstorm, or replace my current Primal and Rattrap.

Wow...those are some expensive chicken nuggets

Back home, a package from eBay:

I finally came around to get the G1 original Rodimus Prime!
The genuine one for sure because his labels are far from fresh.

Looking good so far! Now I'm waiting for the Kingdom Commander.

Eh, he still looks pretty good, or at least seems to have more stickers left whole than mine. Also, fraggin' hell I've gotta find some of those black pieces on the side of the turret for mine. If I remember correctly, when I last pulled those pieces out of the popcorn tin, before I permanently moved the Transformers, GoBots, Diaclone/Microchange, and early 80's KO's out of it, there was only one and the dog tried to eat it. Yeah, it didn't survive. . .

The Wal-Mart's around me haven't seen new Netflix figures since February. So you can most likely trade that set for Shitstorm if you want. I never got Kingdom Primal because I'm happy with my anniversary set, but Primal is smaller than Megatron, so it would be accurate scale-wise to get Netflix Primal. And then to pair up the Primal from that set I'd have to get MP-43.

I know they have been sighted in Canada for a little bit, and in other countries earlier in the month. But pretty much every retailer in the U.S. has these estimated not to show up to until July/August..

It's pretty cheap considering Primal is a 40$ toy in canada

I'm guessing the Netflix figures

I have no idea why the new things are set at the clearance price. Because normally, these sets should be 60$CAN. So if a Canadian is lucky enough, one can find a Netlix Soundwave or Shitstorm at 45$. I know Soundwave is still around because beside that Primal was an Optimus and he was sold as I had that Primal in hand.

Got these two Cybertronians!

Yeah , my apologies, I was responding to the post directly above. Yeah Netflix deluxe wave 3 has been pretty easy to find in my area (of course because I don't want any of them), but with respect to the 2 voyager sets (and all I want is the seeker), pretty much every vendor says July/August. If I see one at Walmart before then I'm just getting it and cancelling my pre-order. But I have to keep the one I have for the Spoiler Box since I'm pretty sure it won't be at B&M, the Nemesis Prime one wasn't.

This is a haul... FROM THE FUTURE!

Because I need room for more upcoming titans, I decided to get rid of the ones I cared the least about. So I went to my local geek store and dumped these for in-store credits:

Generations Metroplex, USA version with Siege Sixgun.
TR Triptycon with Siege Blunt.
G1 Galvatron.
Timelines Airrazor.
All complete and in okay condition.

This got me 560$CAN "plus taxes". Meaning the cash I spent as I sell my things "soak up" the taxes!

Not counting a 180$CAN third Party figure (Toyworld's WW1 Blue Barron), I preordered and paid in advance Kingdom Rodimus Prime and The Ark. Finally, SS Dropkicks copter and car for my friend who paid me back in cash (he saved the taxes.) And that's it rounding a few cents.

I couldn't have had a better deal even if I went through the eBay gauntlet. (Fees, trouble, pay shipping in advance, pay taxes when it's time to buy the things ect.)

More an un-haul than anything for now but I'm pretty glad.

But isn't Walmart the only vendor in the US?

Walmart is the only B&M retailer yes. But both Walmart and Pulse have them online,(TfSource also I think) estimated release dates are roughly the same, way later than most other countries that have them already.

I went toy hunting with my friend in my town and even in the next town over. It's Tumbleweed City everywhere. My friend managed to find himself a ER Runamuck at TrU and a SS DOTM Soundwave at a E.B. Games.

On my end at a Walmart I managed to find a single "G1" Hardhead and the two most iconic Batmobiles IMO, the '60s one and the '89 one.

I already have TR Hardhead so that one will remain sealed because of the nostalgic box.
