KB Toys report (even though they're overpriced as usual): Overload (29.99??, no thanks), PL Red Alert (same as OL), PL Prime (47.99, yikes), PL Hot Shot, PL Thrust, and PL Cyclonus (12.99 each, vs. 10.99 at TRU), Skyboom shield repaint (7.99), 1 Wheeljack (yellow), and 1 Sideswipe. No Unicrons, apparently; rather buy Uni at TRU. Oops, forgot to mention that the KB is located on Steinway St. in Astoria, Queens (G,R,V trains)
OK, so TRU TS: PL Hotshot, PL Cyclonus, PL Cheetor (or Universe, whatever), Universe Dino-Megatron, Hoist, PL Thrust (brown), Gigacons are on sale ($5 off), Lots of Unicron, Reissue Inferno, Hoist, etc Emergency team and Air Military are back in stock also. Bunch of new Star Wars, including new Unleashed (Yoda was tempting), same Joe stuff (lotsa CC's and Destros if anyone is still looking)...
TRS in Union Square (NYC) has the same stuff everyone else has, I guess at this point it's just a matter of waiting for Energon. So to all the NYC collectors- Do we have all of our bases covered when it finally happens, and is anyone else going to the Big Apple Comic book show Thanksgiving weekend. I work a couple of blocks away so I'm going after work Fri.
Eh. I've been to that show a bunch of times and I never see anything that great. It's usually overpriced, etc... Although my friend got a camel clutch from the Iron Shiek there once. 34th st. Kmart had just about the same doodly squat except they also had the Tankor set. Meh. I'm really not too fired up about first wave Energon stuff. The only thing I'm interested in seeing is Starscream. Beyond that I want to see the Decep birdbot and the gojirabot... And or future Japanese versions. I liked the improved look of Scorponok but I'm still not too sold. Oh yeah, give me Energon Unicron too.
the 2 Walmart here in the LI got nothing new, no NP or PL demolisher or TFU stuff. Target in the queens center has 20 Unicron on top, plenty so lets wait for the clearance bin
Was in Chinatown yesterday nothing new I went a year ago and got an original TF comic page and a cell from TF G1 but your right it's not that great for toys but there aren't any more conventions on Long Island you take what you can get. And I think I,m gonna have Sienkowitz sign my TF issue 1.
I finally found Universe Tankor and Obsidian! Only 1 available and I snagged it!!!!! I'd tell you to go to the Saratoga/Wilton Target, but I got the only one! Did I mention that its mine...all mine? They didn't have a single Unicron. They had SEVENTY-TWO Unicrons!!! 10 at the enterance, 2 on the bottom shelf of the Transformers aisle and sixty on the top shelf of the He-Man aisle (stacked 6 high and 10 wide!!!). No minicon repaints. No Depthcharge. No Landfill. And no sign of Alternators.
TS TRU had Universe Ratchet last night, which makes me think they got a new shipment of stuff in. I'll check this morning on my way in to work , since that's the only shot of grabbing anything new. Also still waiting for them to get the GI Joe Troop Builders wave. Sigh. UPDATE: Meh. They had Universe Ratchet and Inferno... Smokescreen is back on sale for $4.90. Lot more Universe stuff, Cheetor, Silverbolt, Megatron, PL Cyclonus, Wheeljack, Sideswipe, etc. WHERE THE HELL IS SKYWARP?!
do they have any univerise tankor obisian set? Unicrons are everywhere, they over produce them, its going to be on clearance very soon, don't buy it now
I got Nemesis Prime! WHOOO! He was the last one at TRU Union Square today and looks sweet! I thought he was going to be more greenish brown but he looks just like Scourge! Kewl! Also got one of the Maguanac Gundams I've been looking for. Twas a good day. BTW I think 34th Kmart had the Tankor Obsidian set also.
i got a powerlinx jetfire/ powerlinx optimus prime 2-pak at k-mart yesterday ( actually 2 of them here in buffalo)---battlestarbase
Just found the Landfill 4 Pack at the Walmart off of Interstate 84, exit 4W (sorry I was passing through on my way home). They have a whole half pallet of them, but the paint jobs aren't so great. Hurry up and you will be able to find one with a nice paint job. chuckcjc
