Well that figures. I just came back from zellers with Breakaway and Ransack (Which is awesome figure BTW), although Ransack was the only one on sale.

Hellz yeah.

This is what I've been waiting for.

Time to pick up Sideswipe for some repaints, and the rest of the Deluxes I have yet to acquire.

Nah! I harken back to the impressionist 1960s-70s designs on the back of the bills:

vs what we have now on the back. Front looks fine though:

But so long as they take it in the stores when I am buying my TFs who cares eh? :grin:

Hrm, well, the Zellers near me have had their Scouts at 9.99$ since last week and they had them at 12.99 the days before. Wal-Marts around me have had them at 9.99 since the RotF scouts hit.

I`ll have to hit Zellers and see if I can`t grab what little of Animated is there that i do not yet have (and I grabbed a bunch of Animated on June 8th there for full price, bummer).

On a sidenote, anyone in Quebec recently see an Animated Shockwave anywhere near the West Island/Hudson/Rigaud area?

I have not had any luck finding the Animated purple Shockwave on the south shore of Montreal. I did find him in Ontario at Zellers, but it was on sale for $49.99 CAD. Way too expensive in my opinion.

Oh well, this week-end I will hunt for the elusive Samurai Prowl and see if I can get him on sale.

You can find him on eBay for $30 CAD shipped from the US. Stupid CDN overprices!

Take the receipt back to the store and get a refund on the difference. You have two weeks if you bought them from the store that has the sale. Alternatively return them and bring in a store flyer and ask for a price match. Take me out for a coffee please when you complete this task.
