The Energon Pub

I went to a walmart about 50 miles from where i live today, and didn't find what i was looking for but what i did find was about 30 Classics Devastator Gift Sets. They were marked down in the clearance section for $10 dollars each. Being the kind hearted guy i am i figured i'd take a few off their hands. I ended up buying 5 of the 30 they had.

Lucky Me!!

That's quite a find. Your store must have gotten what was alotted to the stores in my area, because they were never even here...ever.

I can't stand that set. If I were to paint myself green and purple I'd be just as much Devastator as that thing. Classics Devastator my suprisingly well-toned ass.

Yes, lucky you.

I have yet to see a Devastator giftset IRL. Four WMs in my area and I have nothing to show for it. So sad, I guess.

Idunno, I kind of liked having the set in the "classic" color scheme. Then again, I'm just a sucker for combiners, even the Energon ones, so... Besides, it's almost nice having my Autobots outnumbered for once.

Now this...this is just bragging. Did you find 08 Bumblebee too? Huh? Didja? You picked up 3, right???

On clearance for $10 bucks per set i thought was awesome!! Considering these sets are still going for between $50 & 80 dollars at most online toys stores i've seen... including BBTS!!

Stop calling that thing classic Devastator giftset call it what it is a bunch left over energon construction team figures at that hasbro had sitting around repaint purple and green and boxed up in a new box. Sent to walmart because neather target or tru would touch them with a 10 ft pole.

The Walmart near me has 14 of them but still at full price. I'm waiting for them to go on clearance.

I think that that is a great find. I love gift sets and this one even though it is not anything close to what we would expect for the Classic line (just being an Energon repaint) for $10 US that is better than a kick in the head. Well done and good price! They are selling on eBay for about $30-40 US.

Thanks for the heads up.. I will keep checking my Wal Marts!!!

TC, can u hook me up with one for $10 + shipping =]

I'll be heading towards Walmart this weekend so if anybody is interested in one I'll be glad to pick one up. Just PM me sometime before Saturday morning.

I have to second that. I really don't like this set-I see them everywhere.

What reigon of ohio do live in??

I found him last night on Wal-Mart on clearance for $25. Not nearly as good as $10, but you can't beat that price for 5 TFs that combine.

I didn't buy him because of money issues, but I'm going back tomorrow to snag him. I've fallen in love with the ugly green and purple for some reason and feel like I must have him. And so I will, hopefully tomorrow.

good deal in my opinion especially if you don't have the original set. plus if nothing else, it will fill out any collection on display nicely.
