    meet and greet

    Hello all, I am setting up a New England Transformer Collectors Group Meet and Greet. Comicazi @ 407 Highland Ave in Somerville Mass. 02144 has been nice enough to donate us a space to hold this meeting. The scheduled date is Sunday January 27th from 4:00 pm untill 7:00 pm. Please consider this a formal invitation. This is a free event. Also, feel free to bring a few bots to show off, talk about and display. So come on down and meet some fellow collectors, "untill all are one." This event is hosted by JETFIRE-XL. Feel free to pass this invite along if there is someone you know that might like to attend.

    The Outer Limits in Waltham has an Jetfire in box. The condition is UNREAL. I've never seen one in such good shape. Super clean, bright white. The box is banged up and it has been opened. He's asking $245. Not sure how the pricing is but if you're looking for one, that's your place. They also had a G1 Optimus Prime in similar condition. Didn't get the price on that.

    TRU Peabody had the 3rd wave of FoC deluxes (2 Magnus, 1 Fireflight, 2 Sideswipe, 1 Starscream) and 2 Voyager Soundwaves. Grabbed 1 Soundwave, Sideswipe and the only Starscream. Be warned.. Deluxes are now $18.49. I plan on holding on to the receipt and returning them once they come in at like Target or Walmart at (hopefully) cheaper prices.

    $20?!!?

    Alright, now they really should just phase out the deluxe class. Considering the downgrades, voyagers seem more like deluxes now.

    Its Peabody thats why! Peabody is the highest volume store in the State, if not New England, and thus they jack their prices up, not to forget the whole TRU are more expensive the closer you get to major Metro areas

    I have an extra MOSC FoC Starscream if anyone wants it @ cost

    ^ Truth. At least according to the manager guy I talked to back when MP Prime was showing up. The one that was surprised that Woburn got to many and that they'd never sell them all. Man, I remember the day back when they used to have normal prices, and 'clearance', and weren't such turds. (G1 Commemorative Reissues on clearance for like $3-$5? Don't mind if I do...)

    I love living in Peabody, as it's become quite the hub for everything, and it's nice being just a few minutes away from TRU (and the malls and just about anything you need) ... but sucks when they like to pull this crap.

    A little late but hopefully worth noting; as of yesterday afternoon there were two FoC Sound Waves at the Framingham TRU, a few data disc packs, a few botshot five packs, and a bunch of MP Tcrackers.
