Totally worths the price tag. Now I finally have sticker-unapplied insecticons. Now all I need is lots and lots of energon cubes.
btw, on my invoice insecticons was spelled as "Insections"....... |

If there is a good chance they will arrive dented, I may be running to my local TRU tomorrow morning when their shipment arrives. Haves: Target Shockwave/Sunstorm MISB, Both SDCC CCs, 25th Doc, Non-Foil Flint, K-Mart Minicon 12-pack. Looking To Trade For: Alternators, MP Magnus, hit me up. Retail Wants: 2 (or 4) Zhu Zhus for my nieces for Christmas. TFA Electro Soundwave

I read about the horror experience other members had with TRU shipping but i think TRU will has outdone themselves this time. They use UPS so i guess that will be a plus.
Edit : here are some pics.
they could use some more protections though  |

#5 | | Found other boards on TFW Join Date: Feb 2009 Posts: 366 Location: Halfway between LA and SF Collection Count: "Too many" - my gf News Credits: 7 | I just picked these guys up at the store too! How come they changed Bombshell's name to "Hardshell" and Shrapnel's name to "Sharpshot"? And why is Perceptor's bio so disjointed?
Is it weird that I like huge chunks of plastic? 
Which is scarier? Cat or Megatron? TFWfeedback |

DECEPTICONS, ATTACK!

I already have both of the TFC reissues from a few years back, but if the Insecticons go on sale I may pick up a box or two for army building. |

Can't tell you about Perceptor though, I didn't pick it up. |

#10 | | Constructicon Join Date: May 2006 Posts: 775 | a I want them, but the way I have gotten most of my re-issues except the TRU Soundwave, which mine has floppy legs, was by getting them on sales or crazy clearance whne there was one left.
I got Silverstreak, Red Alert, and Ricochet this way.
Is perceptor or the Insecticons flooppy?
A couple of my cars have floppy joints too. |
