Two things.

1. The local supermarket put out a big Halloween candy display. WTF it's still July! :-x

2. While at Walmart actually looking for Transformers (all they had was TLK wave 1 everything, two Roadburns, and one Brawn, been that way for weeks) I saw a guy in an A Bathing Ape t-shirt. You know, the company that does those super limited camo Optimus Prime figures? It was green camo with the logo in the middle front and the name over and under it in big font so it was hard to miss. I didn't realize they opened a US online store and a location in NYC. I'm going to guess it was a tourist, we get tons of those around here this time of year. Still, didn't expect to see one of those in the middle of Maine.

I always gag when I see school supplies before August and I am not in school anymore!

Man the thrift store was awesome today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I already had a few of these and some were in bad shape but it was still really cool ot see so many TFs. And this is easily the shortest time ever between a toy being on shelves and then found in a thrift store. Cant believe I found TR Broadside.

Damn!
Thats some quick turnaround time WJ!!!

News Credits: 295 · by **WreckerJack** » Thu Aug 03, 2017 10:48 pm

I'd have been tempted to pick up Broadside for 2 bucks!

I passed one up for full price at target this afternoon, but YEAH! And that's 2 bucks Canadian, too unless i've misread some of WJ's posts. >:oP

I dunno what kinda cool weird thrift stores sweet willy j has by him but they're a lot better than the crap ones here! :BOWDOWN:

News Credits: 4492 · by **william-james88** » Mon Aug 07, 2017 5:44 pm

Yup, 2$ Canadian. No head though.

Oh boy, where to begin? There was so much awesome stuff at TFNation it wasn't even funny, but some highlights must be:

MIB RID Sideburn. He was really tempting as I need to get a better condition Sideburn but I bought Transmetal Waspinator instead.

MIB Galaxy Force Landbullet. This was really, really tempting, especially for £20. Still, I already had my "big" figure for the day (RAMPAGE) so I couldn't justify it.

MIB Pre-Transformers Takatoku Dorvack "Roadbuster". I didn't see a pricetag but I assume he'd be like £200 at least. He looked awesome though.

MIB Cybertron Soundwave for £20. Again, very tempting. But I resisted.

A beat-up MP-01 for £25. This was my first time handling that figure and dear GOD is it a piece of art. I mean I know the truck mode sucks and this one was chipped to hell and back but he's so satisfying to hold. He's at least 40% metal, and the sheer mass of him was something else.

And finally, MIB Titanium Soundwave...for £55. Who would pay that much for one of the worst Transformers ever made?

TF hunting the other day, I went into a K-mart that's clearly going to go out of business any day now and found these:

Seems like they've been sitting there a couple of years and nobody's wanted to buy 'em. If they were cheaper I would've picked some up.

News Credits: 4492 · by **william-james88** » Wed Aug 23, 2017 7:57 pm

So many interesting things found on the hunt, didnt get anything though.

News Credits: 12 · by **Evil Eye** » Wed Aug 30, 2017 8:07 am

My local nerd shop had TR Perceptor, Topspin and Kup in for £19 each. Very tempting, I'll say that much, but I resisted.

I found a CW Prime today at the thrift store but since all his wheels were removed, I passed. Tok that 5$ leader BB though. And if ever Cobo reads this, I found that red T-Rx of yours.

Well dang! Here's a subscription that fell off. Again.

Lucky I clicked your little link in the haul thread. Figured it'd been a while since I'd seen what you've found in the junk heap.

DINOZAURS! by Bandai
Pretty strange and wonderful Beast Wars era transforming toy!

Did you get him?

MyFigureCollection.net collection · by **Emerje** » Thu Aug 31, 2017 11:33 pm

DinoZaurs are fun figures, I still have a few of them. However, nobody has the right to complain about Transformers having soft, soapy plastic until they've handled some DinoZaurs and watched the ball joints shred themselves from the friction of normal use.

MICROMASTERS!!!

Still bummed they didn't make Flattop instead of Tidal Wave

News Credits: 4492 · by **william-james88** » Tue Jan 16, 2018 10:52 pm

Its been a while since I found good stuff at the thrift store and I realize now that the last time I posted here I had found an animated wreck gar. And now I found another one, along with other cool stuff (including 2 Beast Hunter Preadakings). I only bought the ones below that are out of the bag.
