    Yeah there were two Soundwaves and a whole slew of both two packs (Ravage and Frenzy) and (RatBat and Rumble). I got them at the Sterling TRU if that helps...

    That doesn't look awful. I completely adore my Fakebusker minions but these don't look awful.

    They aren't. Quite fun, in fact! They're not very game accurate, but I've found myself enamored by their auto-transform. They're like Bakugans only not chintzy.

    Good point. We'll probably see them for a week or two between now and wave 4's brick and mortar debut. And then everywhere except for where I live will see them pop up in Ross/TJMaxx, etc...

    I ordered my Sideswipe(s) from HTS the day they went up. Only reason I got those two was due to Screamer and Kickback being sold out. I've been hoping for them to do a restock, but so far, no luck.

    Only wave 2 I've seen was 1 Brawl at TRU. I ordered the other 4 from their website and 3 should be here tomorrow or Thursday, and the 1 should be here Thursday or Friday. Really want Starscream so I can have him displayed with his "armada" though...

    If i were limited on space, I'd have him perched on Bruticus' shoulder. Like an arrogant little parakeet :) 
    But to be honest, I think I'm going to get a really tall clear stand and have him hovering above Bruticus. I'll probably try to sculpt a crown to fit his head (or if a 3rd party is coming out with a crown, use theirs).

    I just took a look. Love the case and set up, btw; and I see exactly what you mean lol. Although, I don't see a problem with nudging him in there.
    On a side note, I'm really happy to see a line in which Cons are outnumbering bots, even though most of that is due to the Combaticons.

    There is a nice coronation kit for CHUG Starscream, comes with crown, shoulder pads, cape and null rays as well as a Leader-1 (From GoBots) head to make a custom if you so choose. I think someone posted pics on here of FOC Starscream wearing the crown, not sure where that was though.

    Edit: Here's the kit http://tfsource.com/products/view/product_id/852/

    I know of the set, I didn't think the crown would fit FOC Screamer though. I might have to get it and try, and if it just doesn't look right to me, then hey, I have a Classics Screamer that's just begging for it to be given to him lol.

    I am so very glad I'm not the only one. I've always hated using bottom/ground level shelves. I only use mine for my comics/strategy guides and a few packages that house extra accessories, and even then I hate that I'm using the bottom shelf for that too lol.
