No worries, I'm sure I'll see another soon.

From what I've read its not a very good toy, but it was a new mold so I got it.

I can't say that I'm very excited about the new FOC toys. A scout sized toy for a $15 MSRP? No thanks...

These increasing prices are really starting to turn me off also.They're almost twice the price of what they were just a few years ago.I'm going to have to start waiting for sales and clearance deals.

Collection Count: Far too many to be reasonable.
It's time to refocus the collecting again. I love the Prime line, but Airachnid does look quite meh to me. Not much interested in the other announced figures, especially the FOC line either.

Then there's the masterpiece line. Oh the glorious masterpiece line. TRU Prime and Thundercracker are musts. Not to mention Sideswipe and Soundwave. Can't wait for those guys to hit. Of course the prices keep creeping up on those too. But at least they're awesome!

That's why I loaded up on that Groupon a few months back. Now if only HTS would sell individual figures and not cases...

Oak Creek - TJ Maxx
2 DOTM Leader Bee's and Ironhides - $24.99.

That's the only reason I didn't load up on those groupons.HTS never seems to have any of the new stuff,and when they do,it's gone instantly.I don't understand how you can have your own website,but can never have anything in stock.


TJ Maxx in Appleton had a Leader Sentinel Prime for $24.99 up in the front area by the registers.

Nothing at Appleton West Walmart or Target,or Appleton East Target.

Man I need to hit up a TJMaxx instead of Marshalls. I do want one of those Leader Sentinels but they haven't quite made it out here yet. I did see the last wave of US released deluxes though (Darksteel, Air Raid, etc)

I think it varies a lot depending on the store. The Marshals in Delafield was loaded with stuff last weekend (forgot to post). Tons of DOTM deluxes (in back) and voyagers (up front by registers). They had some leader Bee's and 3 of the Optimus Megs battle reissue figures. They also had a lot of HA Basics. The TJ Maxx in Oak Creek usually, at any given time, has 1-2 deluxes, 1-2 HA Basics and the big TF Darth Vader Quad Changer.

How much does that quad changer go for?? Strangely enough I'm interested in it, but not for the $30 price tag Target has on it...
