I couldn't fight my patience so i bought hot rod off ebay a couple weeks back. I wasnt gonna sit and wait for that exclusive to hit walmart. I also got Nitro off ebay as well and he arrived yesterday

 

Do I even want to know what you paid for Roddy...?

 

$34.99 free shipping

 

Yeah. Yeah, I didn't think so.

 

Thank you for sharing!!! If they ship ems it'll arrive within one week.

 

Um, "ems"?

If that's the same as epacket, I'd have to respectfully disagree. I've ordered plenty of stuff from China, and it always varies, but the listed average online is 10-20 days.
The last epacket shipped item I ordered took a month. I started to wonder if I'd ever actually get it.
Sure, it's possible it could get here sooner, but in my experience it's highly unlikely.

 

Maybe so. Bababobo on eBay says he ships epacket but he always ships ems.

 

Anyone in Texas seen Octane in the last week or so? Still trying to hunt this guy down at Targets, but all the ones around me got a Restock of Optimus & Megs rather than the Octane Blitzwing restock.

Anyone else had different luck?

 

Nope, I've been in the same boat.

 

@ Stacy RD TRU there was one Chaos set. Also a bunch of Repugnus but no Shuffler. Also saw Sixshot

 

Irving/Las Colinas TRU

Hmm, pic didn't upload. There was also a Six Shot.

 

Same here.....

 

I just missed you! I was gonna report these

 

SA peeps, meetup is this Sunday, 130-4 at lion n rose off 410/blanco.

 

Lolz

 

Found a Seaspray and multiple Cosmos at the HEB in Buda. I picked up Seaspray. Still looking for octane and blitzwing.

 

Got a strange question. If I wanted a good quality custom piece done, that's mostly just a repaint, where would I turn? Is there a thread for that? Where i cam "hire" someone, as it were?

 

I know a guy here in Dallas that does really good custom work. Primarily action figures, but I'm sure he could easily repaint a TF and make it look great.

 

Cool... Here's my idea. I think the Generations Springer mold would make an insanely RAD Optimus Prime.... Trouble is deciding on which Prime to pilfer a head from... Any thoughts which one best matches that mold's style?

 

Ive been making and selling custom figures for a few years now. Just recently sold a custom TLK Optimus on ebay. I can send ya pics of some of my work.
