    I havent seen any universe toys yet, and I don't mind at all.

    He's keeping them for his own collection, he's not scalping them, I don't see the problem.

    He is allowed to buy what he wants, but it's still hording. I'd also argue there is a deeper psychological issue there.

    I'd also argue that since you don't know how to spell hoarding you probably shouldn't accuse people of doing it either, but that's not what this thread is about. ;) 

    HIGHS - Got Animated Voyager Prime and SS this week finally (yay), as well as some Wall*E figures from Disney.com, which shipped super fast. Search 'N Protect Eve is awesome, that is all.

    LOWS - Had to pay off some credit card debt, yikes the crack is piling up this year fast. Need to sell some art or something before I get anything else!

    No its not. its not like he's buying a ton to just stuff away somewhere, they're part of a display. and he's only getting four.

    you know, GI Joe collectors troop-build, and TF collectors did it in Energon too. nobody complains about troop building, despite the armies numbering FAR more than four of each toy.

    (I would have said this earlier, but the Power was out at the time.)

    Just want to tell you all who defended me, "Thank You".
    =====
    That is fine with me and when I can come into this topic with a calm sense of no worries and happiness then I know the topic/mod is doing their job.

    Thank you too as well, SW.Ca

    Highs: I found an Animated Soundwave buried behind a bunch of Movie FAB's at my local Wal-Mart. I also got Universe Sunstreaker at TRU. Both are awesome, but good lord Sunstreaker is AMAZING.

    Lows: I saw Leader Megatron at TRU, but couldn't get him. It was torture, seeing him right there in front of me. Also, my parents have all but forbidden me to get TF's. I mean, they've got an excellent point (I do need to save up some cash for something other than toys :redface2: ), but it's still infuriating.

    Lucky bastard! :D 

    I'm still considering it. It's a lot of money to drop at once... Especially with my past experiences with that seller.
