Not a big fan of thundertron but thanks to Marshall's at $12.99 I said to myself, sure why not?

And at $5 went for these too.

You got DotM Crankcase? What product code does it have (you can find it imprinted near the Paramount logo)?

If it's 10601, be warned: those have the middle fingers clipped rather sloppily. If it starts with 11***, those have retooled hands, but not on all.

Since there were a few in the movie I have about 4 or 5 of them. I'll have to look closer to see what I'm a victim off. Thanks for the info though.

My wife and I grabbed a random Kreo Microchanger each (we're both hooked on these--we don't actively hunt them, but we grab one each whenever we happen to come across them!). I got Dirge and she got Hook.

Lol! Nope. I picked these up over the last few months. And since I just have too many pieces, my wife and I have an agreement at this point that if I want to get a new figure, I have to sell one to make up the cost. So I've been unloading all my Japanese/Encore/Classics stuff. Also, most of the time I already have one and these are a step up, say from a loose fig to an MIB one or from an MIB with a not so good box to one with a really nice box or unapplied decals or something, so I sell the the one I have and get some of the money back. For example, I already had a G1 Megatron with a poor box, but was able to sell that one for more than I paid for my current one with a nearly flawless C9 box. Plus, I only buy when I'm getting a good deal. So all in all, I usually break even or get pretty close. At this point, I'm only rounding out my G1 collection (1984 - 1986, only about 10-15 to go, I think), MP and the TRU Commemorative Reissues, MISB and MIB.

Got a great haul today from many places, including a few collector shops about a half hour from where I live. It's where I got the bagged mini-cons and FoC Starscream.

Went to Target and got me some Microchangers. Opened them all and got 3 Warpaths', 2 Blast Offs', 2 Insecticons', and 1 Hook.
...must...get...more....

I recently reacquired part 2 of my Holy Grail Trinity: Car Robots Brave Maximus from Japan. I already have an original Fortress Maximus. Now Masterforce Grand Maximus is the only missing piece. Then I believe I will be done with collecting for good.

For $36 shipped I just won just the Takara Dark of the Moon Megatron of the CH-02 set. Much better paint job but aside from that, the same as Habro. The G1 Megatron in the set, I had to pass on.
