I went over to the Washington Square Mall in Tigard today to hit up the Lego store with my buds. We stopped by the Target and evidently they had the Wave 2 Cyberverse Commanders there. No Dreadwing, but they had an Ironhide and I picked one up.
Bend Fred Meyers has wave two of bot shots, picked up rachet and Brawl. Oh joy, another Bumblebee, and as a chase, lovely.
After taking advantage of "Free Comic-Book Day" over at TFAW I stopped at 205 target and lo and behold, Hot Shot, Knock-out, AND a Vehicon. So I grabbed one of each leaving one K/O and one Hot Shot to hang out with all the Bumblebees and a Ratchet. On my way out I checked the price scanner and it said no more Deluxes or Voyagers in the back so it'll probably be a couple days till they get a restock.
this mornings find and sighting Got my vehicon this morning left the rest at salem target didnt think i would find one im so lucky i there was more people that just went into the isle when i found it so hurry if there is anything you want no bulk or scream there happy hunting
Hopped down to Frys for some camera gear and on the way back I stopped at the Wilsonville Target. Low-and-behold I found 3 KnockOut's, 2 Arcee's and 1 Vehicon. I grabbed one of each. My favorite of the three I got is in fact the Vehicon. The robot mode is so clean! I now wish I had bought both Arcees so I can have 2 blades and 2 cannons. I've got KnockOut doing his 'hand on hip, other hand casting to the wind' pose he is known for in the show. Smarmy little bastard. ^_^
Ended up snagging Bulkhead from a board member, so now I'm caught up with the Autobots in Prime. Who knows what the future for that part of my collection holds. I think it would be neat if they did a reimagined Wreckers group for the show. Not sure if I'll snag Shockwave from the FoC line yet seeing as he will likely be tiny. Regardless, I can now focus on my list and prepare for some of the exciting releases later this year. For me, that means 3rd party figures like the Constructicons from MakeToys and Megatron from Hegemon.
Nice haul, was that today? Didn't know Fry's opened that early. I'll be passing on all the FOC, and just concentrate on Prime only, considering since they're easier to get and newer to collect.
Kinda late now but yesterday 185th Target had the remnants of a Vehicon case (only 1 Hotshot & Vehicon were missing).. so that means they had an Arcee, too.
Just got back from Clack Targ. Got my first Vehicon and Knockout. They had the rest of the wave still. Just got the shipment this morning. No new Commanders though. I still would like to get an Ironhide and Dreadwing. Have any of you been checking Walmarts lately. Not sure if they are getting wave 3 yet so I don't want to venture in unless I can hope for something new. Also how do you TFP fans feel about the latest pics of wave 4 and 5? I'm digging the Kup mold but I hope the arms aren't as funky at the shoulders as they are posed in. Arachnid is looking sweet as well as Rumble (especially since he's blue ). The BB repaint is fine, won't be getting him unless I'm inspired to maybe make a Bluestreak or some other silver car from it. Deadend looks ok but not doing much for me.
Kup, Airachnid and Rumble look great. I like the headsculpt on DeadEnd, but the colors are terrible IMO. I have a gigantic rant that I'll spare you all, but I will sum up with: 'For the love of the Allspark, no more BB!' Even the kids aren't buying them anymore if the shelves have been any indication.
I never check Walmart any more for some odd reason or FM. I guess we should start to check there. Loving the new Prime figures looks real sweet, almost tempted to off load my Generations and RTS figures now, with so many Prime figures coming out. Not sure if I have the space for it And sucks that Airarchnid is short packed, they really need to change up some of the way these are cased, but hopefully the holiday cases will have all these short packed figures. Heck ya...it hasn't even been half a year and there's another BB, I'll probably pick it up just for the collection though. Also WS Target/TRU nothing but wave 1 figures.
I'm not that big into TFP and am just collecting a figure here or there that I like the design of. That said, Rumble has been added to my wants list.
Found a Prime Knockout and Beaverton Target. Wow.. so tiny. No sign of any Vehicons, but now I know to start looking at least. If you stuck around after the credits... things look really promising indeed
The Avengers' next villain is indigestion from those sandwiches they ate at the mom and pop restaurant? ...I think I stayed around too long after the credits <_<
I suppose this is silly, but the fact that you found Knock Out IS a sign that there was a Vehicon. The only other sign that there is a Vehicon there would be seeing the actual Vehicon KO is pretty tiny though. I have to agree with Mike, he's not nearly as bad as others were making him out to be though.
I'm hesitant to snag any new TFP characters that haven't been announced for the show yet. That said, I think all of the designs look really good. Rumble is neat.
