    Looked like a full case worth. They have spots for the other G1 figures, but they were empty.

    I'm torn: I have a KO G1 Devastator, missing just most of the little weapons. It looks OK combined, but the allure of a an official, brand-spanking new one is strong.

    What is it, $75? That's not as alluring.

    It’s not that bad when you consider that vendors and collector stores were trying to sell loose ones for that price just a couple of months ago.

    Picked up VW Bug Studio Series Bumblebee at Addison walmart. Had 1 more and 2 each of repaint Ratchet and Shadow Striker. I want the Ratchet but my movie 1 version roof rack doesn’t clip in because of the plastic and I refuse to buy another toy with the same issue

    They also had a few Devastator sets and a bunch of Starscreams

    Bloomingdale Walmart had a fresh case of 4 Devastators last night. I copped 1 so now only 3 left. The boxes were all 100% mint since I'm the one who opened the case up!

    Devastator is $74. The $44 price tag on the shelf is for something else . I placed the figure in that spot for the photos only. The item rings up full price.

    I really want one but can’t really justify the $74 price.

    Wait 2 or 3 months and it will be placed on clearance but the package will be completely trashed!

    I actually want to keep it in box. I saw one as a kid when it came out and was never able to get it so this kind of scratches that old itch

    Wasn't planning on buying it either but the G1 boxart started tickling the nostalgia feeling in me and next thing I knew bought it and was walking out of Walmart full of smiles and past memories of myself as a kid again!!
