    Highs - Picked up 3in Predaking. Only need two more and I've completed the 3in Titanium line. :rock 

    Lows - Freaking nephew came over and started to go into rampage mode through my house. Unfortunately since my mom is living with me, most of my Botcon stuff is STILL sitting in the living room and dining room. Needless to say he saw some of it and began picking stuff up. No harm done, except for a slightly bent card on one item.

    Highs: Picked up the Shadow Recon Mini-Con Team... I can now honestly say that my GF/CYB collection has closed its final chapter...

    Lows: If I had any, it would be that I need to get MP Starscream, KP Convoy and Rodimus, and the fact that waiting for Classics wave 2 is killing me...

    $51 shipped. That's a little cheaper than what I was always willing to pay for him, but every time I saw him he was $50 plus $20 shipping or so from Japan or something.

    Yep. Nearly killed him when he picked up my MOC Card Set I got from the Hatman's booth. It was in really good condition and now one of the corners is bent. :(  My mom got really mad at me for yelling at my nephew, saying he has all right to act this way. Can I kill her?

    Can you? Absolutely. Legally, on the other hand, no.

    Highs- completed Classics Wave 1 with Optimus and Megs today, Starscream yesterday. Got a bonus check from work to enable this. Yea! Also had the strength to pass on Titanium Optimal Optimus, which just doesn't look like a good toy. Left two of them in 2 different stores. No Scourges, but I'm not that into shellformers, either. Also got my Botcon Deathsaurus in the mail Monday, and won Beast Machines Noble/ Savage on eBay. Soon my Snapdragon will arrive, leaving only G1 Deszaras for my dragon collection to be complete.

    Lows: Deszaras is not cheap or easy to find :(  Above paragraph rambles and will probably be skipped.

    -Tony!

    Seriously, what the deal with this thingamajig?


    HIGH:
    - SW Snowspeeder with Zev Senesca (Target Exclusive)!

    LOWS:
    - Still no TS Scourge or OpOp.
    - Still no DCSH Azrael, Darkseid, Luthor, or Brainiac.
    - It's amazing how often "family emergencies" or "funerals" crop up among eBay sellers when they haven't shipped your items when they said they would....

    Highs - The Ebay saler came through. The costume mask has a few minor wear spots and the box has seen better days, but for under $10 (normal price for these costumes, even in rough condition can go for $30-$50) I can't complain one bit! :rock
