    The Zone has a sweet G1 Sixshot here for $75. Also he has cases of Arcee & Windblade on order. Not w/ wave mate but individual cases of each fig & he will sell at retail. Same w Jetfire. Also he said we can use the back room for a meet up. Let's do this soon.

    I'm all in! Also... scored a Jetfire at Poplar Level Kmart. I'm not sure, but it may have been the last one - I called ahead and had them hold one. Preeeeeetty stoked.

    Yeah that'd be nice if my wallet didn't have a say lol. Speaking of my light wallet I went back by the Zone & nabbed one of those Gen Jhaxius & Nightbeat figures. I really dig them.

    Jhiaxus is great... most of the wave is good, but... man, Windblade was distinctively NOT awesome. Pretty let down, as that was one of the ones I was REALLY looking forward to. Jetfire is amazing, though.

    Hello All!

    Did a little hunting tonite:

    - Bashford Manor WM- Saw the bounty (previously posted) that is Generations Sky-Byte and Roadbuster. A lot of them had that wonderful cut in the top of the box... Had 2 Tankors if anyone wants one. No Voyager Hound that I could find, but Voyager Galvatron still there with a nicely smashed back bottom corner and pinched window. Also had a Generations Lockdown DLX if anyone still needs one. WM Exclusives 1-Step Stinger, Three-Pack box set, all 3 Two-Packs and some Legends still there. Bought a Two-Pack with Stinger and Dinobot Slug but they still had one left.

    - Bashford Target- Had 6 of that Five-Pack 1-Step changers exclusive set w/ Silver Knight Prime. A lot of the older stuff too. Did buy the $60 Target Exclusive Silver Knight Prime (recolor of the Takara one). Had 3 left on an endcap.
    Here's the kinda lame part that Target has going on- buy $20 worth of TF stuff, get a single 1-Step free. Eehhh... got a Grimlock. Just don't care for these things at all. But, I guess if they're giving them away... well, it's Grimlock anyway!

    Galvatro, who would really like to find a DLX Rattrap. And any of those other elusive DLXs too.

    Well, since you were apparently in the general area... hit up the Taylorsville Rd. Kmart. Seriously, stop laughing - they had a bunch of them last time I was in. Obviously can't guarantee they have them now, but... it's an obscure-enough hunting spot that they may still be there. Did Bashford Walmart have none?

    Meetup at the Zone sounds good to me. With the recent move and all I'm not sure if we are even going to be able to go to TFCon but its been far too long since we all got together. I know my family wants to meet my fellow friends and collectors so I say we all just set a date for it and stick to the plan. Should be before the con though to help with scheduling conflicts for those who will be attending.

    I grabbed the Slog from Bashford Walmart. There is still a Drift and a Galvatron. There were several Rattraps at Middletown Walmart.
