    anyone interested in a first release MISB Hasbro MP Grimlock? I need a good home for a few things as a recent medical issue is deciding my current fate as well as lurking into my collection so I'm looking at a few items to move. I also have a MISB G1 Mirage AFA graded 80 I'm asking $800 and I know its a good amount of money but have lowered it quite a bit. And a AFA graded ROTF Green Mixmaster.

    I just spotted what appears to be recycled assortment Hijinks at West Saint Paul Walmart.

    A week or so ago Wave 3 of Legends with Gnaw ,Bumblebee and Kickback showed up as reported on this forum. A restock occurred this past Friday with a laserbeak and Rumble frenzy assortment. Crap. Hasbro did this right after the first shipment of deluxe wave 2.

    Is this something we should be expecting with all assortments in the future?

    Friends don't let friends sell Masterforce figures to collectible shops.

    $200? Not a bad price for it.

    Was out and about last night, and the Knollwood, St Louis Park, Edina, and Southtown Targets had almost nothing in terms of Deluxes or Legends. I think I saw a PM Prime at the Edina one though

    I checked it out yesterday, it's a pretty good starter set but you will need to replace the torso at least. The torso has yellowed and both chest flaps are broken off the hinges, the broken pieces are included though. It's also missing the missiles and little car but those are easy enough to find. The Jet piece seem to be in decent condition. After a good cleaning(kinda dirty and dusty) it's not bad but I decided against it, hopefully MMC Overlord will quench my thirst for an Overlord in addition to leader coming out. If there weren't any broken pieces I may have sprung for it but at this stage in my collecting habits, I hate hunting for addition missing and/or broken pieces. The owner did mention that he's gonna put it up on eBay for more real soon so if I wanted it I should buy it, just a fyi.

    Found 3 Bumblebees and 2 Kickbacks at Burnsville Target. Taking one of each and debating on this stormshot thing from RID. There's also a white drift and blastwave.

    Edit:. Passing on stormshot. Gotta finish the Voltron and still hoping to get sixshot and megatron. There's also an RID Starscream.

    Thanks, that really sets my mind at ease. I'm not in the mood for replacing stuff, and I can tell you that MMC's overlord is friggin' great (aside from a weak base mode and fiddly xformation), so that should help. I actually really like IF's EvilLord as well for a fun desk Overlord option, and I strongly, strongly recommend him (and basically everything else IF has made). I'm just glad MMC's doing the chestmaster add on for Carnifex as well.

    Stormshot's fine, but nothing to write home about. I'd say I like him a little more than Starscream, though, just because there are a lot of better starscreams out there. SS was at Bville TRU when I was there yesterday, too

    I thought he looked really cool. Closer to generations than RID except for the head.

    Lakeville Walmart across from the theatre has 3 Bumblebees, 3 Sharkticons, and a lone Kickback. I could see myself troop building these Sharkticons but I'm gonna leave a couple for anyone who feels it's worth the trip out here for them.

    Also Marvel Legends Wolverine, Deadpool, rogue, winter soldier, falcon.

    Shoreview Target had x1 HACT-AT or whatever it's called on clearance for $88 this late afternoon. I haven't been to Target in sometime. Nothing new for Robits.

    I bought TP and some frozen chicken. Saved 5% as well.

    You're talking about the Star Wars AT-ACT right? I might bite for that price.

    ALSO! Has anyone recently bought or sold a TFCC Astrotrain recently? (The Armada Jetfire remold). I have a mint boxed one I'm thinking about unloading. The only one on ebay is loose and incomplete for $100. Any thoughts as to the value of a MIB one?
