    Looking forward to actual local Titan findings! Headmasters was my thing when I was a kid....though I only had Apeface/Snapdragon/Scorpy back then...they were and still are spiffy toys.

    I hear ya. I wanted to order the Titan Masters to get a taste of the line, but I'm going to get the rest when they show up in person. More fun that way!

    Sorry I've been MIA from the board for a while here. Lots of stuff been going on involving fixing up the house and stuff.

    So, the Titan Masters stuff is now starting to show up, eh? Finally, something to go into stores to look for soon.

    I went to Hot Comics and Collectibles in New Hope today and found someone had sold them a a lot of the original and Legacy Power Rangers stuff. Got a very good condition original Dragonzord for like $40. Now I just need to figure out what to do with my old one that isn't as nice looking.

    Oh, and did I have some stuff going on on with people purchase wise? Like I recall being interested in that upgrade for Sphinx (not MP-Mirage) on his missile launcher and some stickers for Ratchet and stuff.

    Does anyone here have Maketoys Gun Dog they can bring to the meetup? I'm getting FansToys Willy and would like to compare.

    Wasted two hours today in the hunting grounds of Blaine/Fridley. Nothing. Was kind of expecting some kind of holiday surprise, heh.

    What's this about a meet up? Those never work well for me.

    Wow good timing by me. I went to Burnsville Tru and they had titans returns figures. I got the 2 voyagers and 4 deluxe s. They had 3 deluxe s left when I left.
    No smaller figures though.
    Happy hunting. They were open till 7pm today Monday the 4th

    Darnit! That's like a mile from where I live, but I was so busy running around doing stuff for my birthday (which is today!) that I didn't go over there. ><

    Also, what were the prices? Curious since TRU loves its gouging

    I wanna update the Burnsville info... I Stopped by yesterday afternoon, and got there just in time to see someone with a Blurr, and a Hardhead, I think. I passed on the Scourge that was left, but it still may be there. Did not see any more voyagers though.

    So they are finally starting to drop, and oh yeah, the price for the deluxes was 16.99 and not 22.99 for the 3 cases of sky reign limbs they still have there.

    I'm honestly surprised by that pricing at TRU. I was going to post that I'd go grab some of the deluxes but not at TRU prices... I wonder if they'll be a buck or two cheaper at Walmart/Target?

    yea I was glad the prices were 16.99 for the deluxes so far. Likely lower at target or walmart later on.
    Happy Birthday belatedly.

    Id say careful taking them out of the packages. I took skullsmasher out slowly and still things were dropping off and the legs are a lil loose at the swivel./ Plus someone at the factory had inserted the head in sideways which made it tricky to take off the head. I maganaged to not break it but still.

    Any word on if Fort Max is gonna show up at Costco or Sams? Would love to get him for the same $70 price that I paid for Metroplex.

    I'd be on board for a $70 Fort Max if I had anywhere to put him. Already nervous about where PMOP, Getaway, and the last 2-3 CW boxed sets will go.

    1 of each of Skullmasher and Blurry TR left @ MW TRU after I picked up a set of the deluxe.

    I arrived a little earlier than Kmoua7 and was able to get Sentinel Prime and Hardhead at Maplewood TRU.

    I'm going to have to start hitting up every Target, Walmart, and TRU on my commute now. XD Really wish the TRU in Bloomington hadn't closed. >< I'm just hoping I can find at least 1 deluxe somewhere so I can put all my Titan Masters to use. EXTRA GUNS FO' DAYS!
