Yeah it is!

will runabout and runamuck be in stores, or online only?

 

Runabout was supposed to a Target Exclusive. Thrust is supposed to be as well, but they could end up getting moved to Odyssey like Ratchet, but the two are rumored to be Target Exclusives.

 

And Runamuck is set to be a general release, so should be in stores.

Though there's always a chance his wave might not show up in stores much since we're in that space between most of ER being out already and Kingdom coming in a few months.

 

Last time I was at Benton Target they still had one

 

unless it was moved elsewhere, I went yesterday and there were no more on the shelf.

 

check brick seek. They’re usually pretty accurate

 

What’s the dcpi ?

Kewlio!
Thanks for the heads up, ill keep a lookout.

So i have all the robots put up and now i just have to clean up and get all the clutter out and then its time for pics!


And i think it is now time to have a meetup.

Pandemic is winding down, i have space for all of us to keep our distance, we can ALL still abide by the rules and use proper decency with masks and sanitizer; WE NEED to see each other and welcome the new peeps that have joined.
Im gonna go ahead and throw 3 weekends out there to let you all talk about it or think about it to choose amongst the majority of when will be best for everybody.

November 7th, 14th, or the 21st. All saturdays...
Lemme know and lets get together!

 

Also.
Bought this: from @autobot City Comics today.
A THOUSAND miles ahead of the previous, 'so called' " voyager" Shockwave.
Plus this little guy! Thanks Mike!

I usually don't bring up things like this, but that Blugeon statue on the front page is an ugly POS.
It's hard to tell what's what on it yuck..

 

Had Fed Ex and UPS drop off some goodies today: MPM Ratchet, Quintesson Judge, ER Allicon, and the Pit of Judgement. After all that, I am not too torn up that Amazon pushed back the ER Ratchet set a few weeks.

I know I would like to be able to finally meet up with all you guys but I have to wait a little longer until this pandemic gets a bit more under control. I help care for two people with multiple high risk factors and cannot take the chance at the moment. But I look forward to the day when this pandemic is over and we can finally have a true big shindig.  

Wow, that thing really does look like something. If it wasn't for the Transformers logo and Decepticon symbol, I would have thought it was a mech from some other anime series. It looks like they were trying to go for a Bay-Verse style Bludgeon.

 

Definitely hard to tell whats going on there... Underbite much??? I think?!?

So jealous! Should be getting mine in the coming week hopefully! Take some pics!!!
And im sure i speak for all of us when i say that we would rather you be safe for the sake of your loved ones and be responsible to keep em around rather than throw caution to the wind for the sake of toys...
We're all adults here and this pandemic will pass just like flu season eventually and we WILL have a GLORIOUS meetup!!!

And yes. That bludgeon sucks.  

 

What did y'all decide????

 

Lemme know asap so I can get the days off!

 

People can do as the choose to do, but I know I'm not up for any meetups in the foreseeable future. A meetup would be great fun!, I'm keeping my contact bubble small.

Every 2 weeks the UAMS College of Public Health updates their projections for the pandemic in AR. I do not work on this, but I know some people who do. The link below goes to the full long report. On page 11, figure 11 is their current projected curve for active cases in AR. The current projected peak is in February 2021. It's really still just ramping up. AR won't be back down to current levels again until late Summer/Early Fall 2021. Do as you all choose, but I think this is the best information, the best guess of what to expect in AR to consider in your choices.

A video is also available at the link below. But it's 13 minutes long and probably easy to fall asleep to. Anyway, the same figure is shown and discussed at about the 7:50 mark.

we havent yet. Thats why we are discussing it here and now. But stay tuned here and we will figure something out.

Thats cool, i totally understand and im not gonna hold it against anyone who chooses not to come.
Youre right, it isnt over but you can ask Jordan and Adrian about when it comes to having people over amidst this that we heavily sterilize everything, and have wipes and hand cleaner all over the place for peoole.
Im not trying to talk anyone out of their decision because you all know whats best for your lives; but rest assured, we will keep things simple and spread out for those who do want to come.
And if no one can come, we will wait til another time, no biggie.  

 

November 7th would probably be the best for me. But I'm good with later too.

 

Youre the first to chime in with a response so UNLESS anyone has a conflict with that date, speak up so we can settle on something.
We'll give it a couple of days so peeps can discuss and whatnot.
But the 7th is ok with me.
