    That makes sense, but I have to ask….*why*? Like what would someone gain from doing this? An internet presence for future account credibility?

    *shrugs* Don't know. But if you know what a sock puppet is, that might help explain my suspicion. (Also the "targeted" comment that it made.) If you've ever been in the comments section of YouTube videos about news, YouTube is infested with these types of accounts and AI Bots, especially these days thanks to agencies from certain governments around the world attempting operate their influence campaigns. And I doubt it's a coincidence that just today a CCP spy balloon was spotted flying over Montanna today.
    :2c: 

    But I digress. I don't want this to derail the thread. Anyone seen any new Transformers?

    So, I'm starting the Law Enforcement Academy on Monday so I'll be around the Hutch area till August. Where would one go to hunt around those parts? I am very unfamiliar with the area.

    Meh, I think I am about done collecting Transformers. 4 main must have figures for 2023 (at least in my collection) have never appeared at retail even once in my area and I am at a point where I don't believe they ever will show up. Devcon, Beachcomber, Snarl and Frenzy. I know, I know, "order them online" well, I did.
    Snarl got cancelled, Devcon, Beachcomber, and Frenzy are still preorders that have continuously been pushed back month after month by BBTS, I am beginning to doubt they will ever arrive. I have Ratchet on preorder too but I did find him in retail. I prefer to find figures at retail. The thrill of the hunt I guess it is. I don't know.
    I feel like it's a lost cause.
