    I bought Energon Ironhide for $1.25 at Target. Recently, I completely ripped him apart. That alone was worth my $1.25. It also helped me with my horror suppression you just mentioned :D

    1.25???

    Reminds me of the Flywheels I bought for a dollar (50 cents for each half) at a random garage sale in my neighborhood long ago.

    in northern suburbs of montreal

    been months close to a year
    - sea attack ravage 2 or 3 max per store sometimes none
    - tuner mudflap 1 or 2 max per store sometimes none
    - red fallen (clogging aisles in and found only at zellers) everyone of them

    been weeks pegs full even on sale since its initial release
    - PCC 5 pack and 2 pack minus heavy thread lol
    - hftd terradive
    - RTS wreck-gars
    - RTS perceptors
    - generations red alert
    - generations skullgrin
    - RTS tracks
    - RTS mindwipe
    - RTS outback
    zellers has been pretty good. winners is empty believe it or not.

    most collectors are in the city or the southern suburbs and don't want to or can't drive 15 minutes to remove these. i think only 3 collectors including myself live in this area.

    i won' be seeing the next generations line anytime soon. haven't seen wheeljacks, scourges, thundercrackers, kups has not even been released yet.

    No, trust me, there's little comparison. $1.25 is expensive for this turd.

    Flywheels, on the other hand, is completely awesome. You got a steal :)

    Oh, but ripping it to shreds was so worth my $1.25!

    Did I ever say that I really hate the Energon Ironhide toy? Cuz I do.

    Right now, at Wal-mart there are sixe pegs full of nothing but Sidearm Sideswipe, Elita-1, Hailstorm, and Tuner Skids.

    Wal-mart is flooded with ROTF Dead End, Stalker Scorponok, Desert Brawl, Ravage, and Blazemaster.

    Tuner Mudflaps have been pretty low in this area thankfully!

    It's all good. If anything, I've got a feeling that many of us are still traumatized from Ironhide's death in the 1986 movie, and would rather not relive it in the present. In the meantime though, we can always watch Optibotimus and a bunch of Mexicans destroy a Justin Beiber doll.

    Gotta wonder if he'll ever become a shelf warmer...

    I'd never seen an Energon Ironhide before, so I had to wonder at your rage and waste of a $1.25 (that's soda money!)....

    So I went to the Gallery and looked....good Lord, I hope you used a sledgehammer to pulverize that piece of trash!!

    I hit a Wal-Mart, TRU, and Target today. Nothing new. Just the same old stuff collecting dust. TRU had the "Warriors of 3 Worlds" pack that they can't give away!

    Not.

    At.

    All.

    I used a screwdriver.

    I'm sorry you feel that way, but to each their own. I hope you find a better deal than I did!
