    They had to pull Scrapper from the back so I’m not certain if they had Sentinel

    Target on Sawmill had 1 each of Sentinel and Scrapper, left with em both. First I've seen em in Cbus. Didn't see anymore of each so either someone got 2 before me or they're in the back.

    Snagged the only SS Scrapper and Sentinel Prime at Blue Ash Target. Nothing else of note to report.

    FINALLY found SS Sentinel Prime and Scrapper at the Target on Beechmont Ave. They still have one of each after I bought mine. They also have the Botbots Series 4 “blue bubble” blind packs (haven’t seen these in awhile/only saw them once). I bought the gold ones.

    South Lebanon Target has 1 each of SS Scrapper and Sentinel Prime, now conveniently located in the back of the stack.

    Hey folks, I don't know if this counts as something to be placed on this thread but after I received my most recent package from Megalopolis (which by the by is my third package and thus far I have had nothing but excemplary service from that online company...just thought that I would throw that out there....) and when I went back and looked at their site today (even though I have no extra money until either my disability check or my stimulus check arrives) I noticed that the WFC-GS10 Soundwave Spy Patrol (Unit 3) with RUMBLE, WINGTHING, SKAR and (Autobot) KNOK is currently AVAILABLE and not just in Pre-Order mode.

    Yes, the WFC-GS10 pack IS $21.99 (which is $2 more than the current pre-orders elsewhere) but I'm one of those folks who has been in isolation for the last 68 days straight (i have a severely compromised immune system due to countless rounds of chemo over the last 15 years) and even BEFORE the pandemic problems I didn't get out and about like I once was able. So, when I can get a new comic book or toy that I collect (which I don't collect much beyond the Hasbro Transformers as far as toys are concerned anymore) and have it in hand and not have to pay very much more than average.... well I do it.

    Also, in case there are some of you who have never checked out Megalopolis.... they do offer points from every purchase that you can then end up using towards a future purchase. If anyone is interested in checking out Megalopolis and feels like helping out a disabled, paraplegic United States Marine here is the link to the Megalopolis site.....if on the off chance any of you do sign up at their site and make any purchase I guess I will get 15 points for each you fellas that does so....honestly I'm just looking to help you guys out and pay it forward because you guys have certainly helped me out here since I became a member.

    Anyways, here's the link Create Account

    On another sort of related note... I just got Barricade, Ricochet and Nightbird (all on a more than decent discount from megalopolis) the other day and after doing so I immediately went to the Nonnef.com site and purchased the Nightbird weapon pack in the bright yellow color. While I was at the Nonnef.com site I also noticed that he had new kits up for the Earthrise Wheeljack and also Earthrise Exhaust as well as a separate kit for the G1 Wheeljack. If you go to the Nonnef.com site you'll also notice the Earthrise Hoist Kit which I purchased as soon as it was available (even though I have yet to find/purchase the Earthrise Hoist as of yet).

    As much as I honestly love all of the Nonnef.com kits that I've purchased for my new Transformers and i have absolutely NOTHING negative or bad to mention about ANY of the products that I've purchased from him... I REALLY wish that the guy who creates all of the cool kits would make bigger "runs' of the products/kits (for lack of a better phrase). What I mean by that is that IF you happen to miss out on a kit that he's producing such as the Hoist/Grapple colored Omega Suprme Track Sets for Dioramas....well then; you very well may be shit out of luck. The reason that i used that kit as an example is because I actually DID miss purchasing that set (because it went on sale at the middle of the month and I just did NOT have the extra money at that time to order one of the sets)...which made me sad because Omega Supreme is one of my top 5 bots, good or bad....and I would have loved to have that theme colored diorama kit to go along with the Full Omega Supreme Kit which I ordered the morning that it became available for purchase. If you see the photo of just how large the Omega Supreme tracks can potentially become from just one full kit from Nonnef.com.... well it becomes a TRUE Autobot city and especially so with the Ironworks connectors (one more bot that I need to get...lol).

    Last but not least is the bot that arrived yesterday...and it's a Siege Autobot/Decepticon that I honestly did NOT think that I was ever going to add to my collection simply because of the cost of the bot and the fact that it seems that the price is going up and the availability of this bot is quickly becoming more scarce. Fortunately, my lovely lady ordered this bot for me and got a great deal in the process....and the bot is.... WFC-S28 JETFIRE (she got him for me for $68.00 which I thought was a good deal... heck I'm just glad to have him in my collection at this point).

    I was so excited when the package arrived and as soon as I got the package inside... I opened it right up. I was amazed by how just big Jetfire is. I always, ALWAYS have considered and called Ultra Magnus (prolly my favorite Autobot or in the top two or three) "Bigbot"....but man, Jetfire is a big ole' bot himself. Also.... there are so many extra parts and the fact that the Autobot symbol is reversible to the decepticon symbol just like the episode of the cartoon is a really nice touch.

    Anyways, that's it for today I think fellas...and I hope that I did NOT violate any rules by posting the two sites that I did....because I just find both sites to be very useful for myself. If I did break the rules just send me a message or whatever and I'll do my best to not do so in the future.

    Stay clean, stay safe and take it easy fellas.

    If anyone sees a Scrapface near Cincy and leaves him lmk. I changed my mind on him because I’m going to make him an Autobot. I’m not going to build a full camera though

    Polaris Target had Scrapper, but he left with me. No sign of Sentinel Prime or anything else new that I noticed.

    If anyone needs a Scrapper I have an extra one coming from Megapolis that I forgot about. Just looking for retail cost ($30). I’m willing to meet up if in Cincy area, otherwise a flat $7 for shipping regardless of location

    Edit: If no one asks for it by May 12th I’m going to just take it to the Toy Dept in Fairfield

    Has anyone seen Leader DOTM Optimus in the Cincy area recently? Would greatly appreciate if anyone could help me find one.
