I was considering getting a second Bombshock because I didn't like the mismatched legs. But once I swapped the arms around, I find I like it as is. It has a foot with more support for the heavier arm.

My Optimus, unfortunately, has one of its feet attached wrong and I didn't notice in the store. So I keep him in vehicle mode, and definitely plan to get a second.

Wanted Cybertronian Megs, but couldn't find him.

You can return the Optimus to the store if you point out the defect.

I considered it, but the transformation is tricky enough that I would rather just have one copy of the toy for each mode.

I still don't know why people think WFC Prime is too complicated. Takes longer than the average deluxe, but it's easy enough.

icked up Cybertron Megs today. Not bad for my first "triple changer", only $9US at Target.

Picked up HftD Terradive! Would recommend to anyone who hasn't picked him up to do so. He is a great deluxe class figure.

iIndeed I am, but that is also why the phrase was in quotes. I know it's not a true triple changer like G1 Springer, or Astrotrain.

Generations Red Alert, Blurr, Dirge and Cybertron Megs, along with HFTD Breacher. Thanks to Prime Evil for the heads up!

Found Cybertonian Megs and 'Bee today. And since I fixed the foot on Optimus, now I am only missing Soundwave. Awesome.

Question for people that played the game, though: Are the wheels on Bumblbee's arms in robot mode supposed to be anything? Or just there because they had to be somewhere?

NICE haul! I'm really looking forward to Highbrow. I'd get him at BBTS if he was part of the sale, but alas. HTS doesn't want my money either, it seems. :lol:

Ah well, there have been extremely limited sightings. Sucks that your TC broke, which part of the leg?

Generations Megatron - like him but really dislike the button on his cannon being where you need to apply force to attach it to his arm.

Scout Breacher - he was on my Christmas list but has been hard to find in my area so I grabbed him much to the dismay of my wife. As everyone else has said, he is well worth the purchase.

The other night my friend came over for our traditional anime watching festival and she brought a gift for my birthday. Upon tearing away the layers of Japanese newspaper that she had wrapped it with, I was delighted to discover a brand spankin' new Alternity Optimus Prime (red version)! Wow! This is my first Alternity figure ever, and has a place of honor on my shelf. Thank you Misa-Misa!

Today I was able to find and purchase HFTD Highbrow at Y'All-Mart. They didn't have the Fallen, but I was still stoked to find what I did.

I'm gonna have to wait for it til X-mas but I ran across a HA Shadow Blade Sideswipe and convinced my mom to get it for me, I didn't even know they were making one. It looks really nice with the black w/ silver racing stripes(also tossed a Breacher in the cart:} IA is the place to be for Transformers, I've found so many things out here that I never would have found in Michigan.
