Now some Easter baskets in Meijers on the other hand have a 4-pack of some VERY intersting simplified flip-changer KOs, one of which is a red or black helicoper with pressure-missile arms that I just can't place. Someone I showed it to suggested it was a shrunken Energon Quickstrike/Bulkhead, but it could just as easily be an original sculpt. Comes with some Robot Master weapons, including a scythe! Was there a RM scythe?! The hooligan in Jetfire colors is also symmetrical, with pressure claws on both arms, but they can't actually fire the included projectiles, his wings can't move, and the flip-gears from olive Megatron/plex and red Thunder/warp have been removed. Still, they're cooler than the white/purple Darkwing from last Easter.
Heh-heh, hey, I'm not endorsing buying KOs, just wondering if anyone here knows what the deal is with the copter and the scythe. Certainly hit the legit TRU sale instead, by all means.

My TRU is way ahead of your guys'...mine has fully stocked pegs of Tuner Mudflap! I don't know if they even got a shipment of Arcee yet, if they get it at all...

You see, the Toys R Us I went to had a sign up that simply said "50 percent off all Transfomers." Nothing about buy one at full price, etc.
They "also" had a sign up saying that the Ultra Classics were on clearance for $14.98 (they didn't mean to have the Toys R Us exclusive figures on that shelf).
So, I was able to snag animated Lugnut, animated Jazz, animated Snarl, and Universe Dreadwind... for a total of $34.42, tax included. The same price I "would" have paid, if I bought Dreadwind alone at full price.
I felt quite victorious.

Yeah, Mine has all of the NEST alliance deluxes, but who the hell wants that? They're just repaints of other mediocre figs...

I know, those exclusive are terrible. They stuff two or three crappy figures in a box then charge the same price they'd be if you bought them individually.
