Social Group
This is a public group.

The "I have patience and financial discretion" group

Group Created by Ops_was_a_truck

This is a group for those Transformers collectors out there who recognize that the best things come to those who wait and tend their wallets.

- If you've been able to patiently remind yourself that a $50 ebay exclusive will be a $10 toy at every retail establishment in America ...
- If you recognize that there's no sense in spending $500 on a toy when you can easily repaint another toy from the same mold for $10-$20 and some effort and ostensibly get the same toy...
- If you think "convention exclusives" and "eHobby limited releases" are ridiculous - and find it entertaining to watch people clamor to get them...

...you're eligible to be part of this group.

Join up and tell tales of conscious objection to moneywasting, ebay splurging and "gotta have it" syndrome.

    I'm not going to by MP Thundercracker yet. I'm going to wait for a probable Hasbro release about this time next year (or a few months after that).

    I'm saving up for the G3 trailer and the Powered Commander add on kit. I'm almost there!

    Due to finances, I had to put my G1 collecting back on hold. As for the mainline stuff, I'm still spacing myself out quite a bit. I'm getting more interested in the Constructicons, but I figure they'll all be around for a while. Plus, we have all of the cool new guys in the 2010 wave . . . .

    Yeah thinking back I have seen the exact toy for months. But I still have a Minty ultra magnus from 85. I could wait and I did see it go through many pointless little price drops. It's an awsome toy to open though, the DVD and comic should not be set aside the combo will make you nostalgic.

    I got the 25th anniversary G1 optimus for $20 at kmart today. Its actually the first time Ive bought a G1 figure since the 80s. The original tag said $69.99, thats an ultra plus voyager savings.

    Who scored big with the recent TRU 1/2 off sales? I picked up Inferno - super awesome and for 10.50!! Also got Powerglide - cool alt mode bot mode is meh, and Silverbolt - cool bot mode and alt mode in just ok. These last 2 were worth the 12.50 but would not get them for full price. I love the transform sound they make as you change modes though.

    I hate buying TFs on a budget.

    Ive been waiting 2 months to save up for Railracer and Big Convoy.
    And poor ROTF is gonna have to wait until i'm done with the Animated line,which will take forever.

    I think I'm done with ROTF as far as ubercollecting goes. Might just pick up Soundwave and then wait for Bludgeon and Lockdown.
