    Really? I got an email when I placed my order AND when it shipped... weird.

    Mine HTS order is still in SmartPost hell. I wish they warned you about that before you ordered.

    I pretty much agree...but curious nonetheless. Never know when BBTS is going to be out of stock on something. Just trying to figure out if TFcurse should still be the absolute last stop or if they're before ol' RobbyK these days...

    They do...if it's free shipping, it's coming SmartPost! :D

    I must have clicked on the "never email me anything about any of my orders" button...no clue what's up with that but at least my orders process and ship.

    Maybe it's because they were literally shipped to my house together, but these two seem meant for each other.

    (Note: Fracture is holding Shockwave in that pose with no help. His gun is not touching to act as a third support)

    CW Legends Buzzsaw is silly. Armada Laserbeak is cooler.

    Legends Shockwave is sooooo cool. Highly recommended. Fun to pose, great design in robot mode, nice color scheme and paint where it matters.

    Does anyone have a picture robot Shockwave holding gun Shockwave?

    That was something else I liked about Legends Shockwave. His heels have a lip on them so when he's in bot mode they "rest" against the back of his leg. So you can pose him fairly well and he won't fall over at his ankles.

    Close enough! Thanks. He looks pretty silly, but I should have expected him to look silly holding himself...

    I like how his heels look like double claws. Last night I had a lot of fun posing Shockwave doing roundhouse kicks, transforming his feet halfway through the kick so he was kicking with the claw heels, sort of like Raiden from MGR. Yeah, I know, nerdy.

    NO RAGRETS!

    Deployer Overload is pretty cool. Unique transformation, but they ditched the who 'deployer' gimmick for his bot mode. He can't launch his minicon unless he's in vehicle mode. I'm okay with this since the gimmick tended to hang a lot. His minicon is neat as well, and I'm excited for the rest of the ball minicons.

    To agree with others, shockwave and Fracture are sick. :D  I also dig buzzsaw. He's simple, but he's fun to flip back and forth, and I think he'll be more fun once I have a titanmaster to ride on him.

    In the mean time, I am do fanmoed:

    I'm going to have masterpiece Laserwave hold my CW Shockwave. Hopefully it slides in there good.

    Our friend from Burnsville Target appears to live near Apple Valley Walmart as well..

    How lazy do you have to be to accept these returns? I brought them up front and they took them off shelves.
