Still looking to do a possible Friday night or Saturday event at the Seibertron Store. Maybe we could do a meetup of sorts instead, limited to 10 people to hang out and talk Transformers, comics, have a couple of Energon Drinks and so on? Any interest?

Thanks for sharing, nukethis. I'm surprised how big the toy is. Just wish it could transform! Looks rather incredible!

Target has Legacy Metroplex and MPM Blackout (among some other TFs) on sale at 20% off, plus the 25% off a single toy.

I just ordered Metroplex on the app for $177 (that's with the Redcard 5% off and $3 I had in rewards). Woot.

Hey-oh! Rosemont Target had 1 Origins Jazz tonight after I grabbed one. Found them hidden behind a couple of Buzzworthy multi-packs.

They also had 3 or 4 Core Cheetor, the one that transforms into a blade weapon.
