    That's cool though. I'm genuinely happy for anyone that really wanted one. That's why I decided better to let someone else grab 'em than to take that chance away from someone who could appreciate it better than I could.

    I really do want a Piranacon, and the TFC version speaks to me. Alas, it's a wee bit outside my current payroll deductions.

    I hadn’t noticed and tmnt funko but wood river hasn’t stocked for anything. I keep getting Walmart alerts of Soundwave in stock but it’s just stores that sell it for much more than retail.

    Man that sucks... ya the entire transformers section was pretty much wiped out when I was there this morning... except a few transformers on the pegs, ER Smokescreen in a crushed box and the 2 Thrust.

    It's definitely a case that if you think they're a bit too expensive for typical Combiner Wars toys, you are not wrong. They are nicely painted, the added accessories are nice, but they are most definitely still Combiner Wars toys with all the same pros and cons as ever.

    That being said, I already owned all of the other Combiner Wars/Unite Warriors versions of the G1 guys, so I got them to complete the set. But for an actual display piece, the TFC is likely a lot better (and will probably go on sale eventually I think).

    Netflix Soundwave was available online randomly but surprisingly often over the last few days. Albeit for minutes or less at a time. Got an order in on Thursday, should be here Monday.

    Has anyone seen the newest NECA TMNT in Missouri yet? Splinter/Baxter & Krang, specifically.

    That sucks. Any place I have seen Netflix Optimus, I have only seen Netflix Optimus and by a large amount. I am curious if the distribution is messing up in some cases and they are not getting sent Soundwaves at all.

    Bridgeton Target has 1x Thrust. I don’t think I’m going to buy him...I don’t like the coneheads and I’m not getting the other two. But darn if he doesn’t look pretty in person...

    Not at all but on the look. You in the St. Louis area or somewhere else? If so when I find it I will let you know if there are multiples as I am looking for them as well.

    I’m in Jeff City. But I haven’t seen any of the new TMNT stuff that’s all over eBay right now show as shipping from Missouri. Guessing they haven’t been distributed here yet. Maybe this week, as long as the reps don’t have off for the holiday.
