I've done some additional battle damage, but not really anything on that scale outside of the Battle Patrol.

 

Nice! Are those bases still easily available? Who made them?

Window patrol. (I love the natural lighting of the evening and wanted to take advantage of it.)

 

Thumbnails only, but two more things I love about Prowl is how well he hilds poses and how smoothly he teansforms without needing "cheats" if I were to animate it.

His arms support his front end while his legs collapse, and the heels keep him steady as he lowers his arms in place. Compare that to Chromia whose arms have to stick out in the air and whose legs are upside down, meaning she cannot even get on her feet well, or Ironhide, whose arms spin into his legs.

 

Talked to a Target manager about the whole Springer deal. It's not about the customer doing anything wrong, they seemingly COULD sell you something before a certain date, but that would make Target liable to be sued by Hasbro.

 

That doesn't make much sense when other retailers are breaking the street date.

I remember when specific video games were supposed to launch on a certain date and all retailers were bound by that date. That being said, stores in the mall broke street date the second they found out that others stores had done so.

 

I ran into that at Walmart when Halflife 2 came out. Somebody had made the mistake of putting them on the shelf about a month early.

You shpuld have had them give you a rain check, where they are forced to reserve a copy for you with documentation and all.

 

Found this guy at Walmart  

 

Were they allowed to sell it to you?

 

Self-checkout is your best friend.

 

Unlike target, Walmart doesn’t care if you buy unreleased figures thankfully.

Nice find!

 

Walmart would most likely go “Awww man, we weren’t supposed to sell that yet! Oh well, early money.”

 

Better late than never. These guys are awesome.

 

Honestly, Hasbro imho has knocked it out of the park with the new Siege line. Those effect parts really add to the figures. Just wish they’d sell them in a multipack so I don’t have to keep buying battle masters  

 

It’s amazing wow cartoon accurate Springer is. Time to go Wally hopping

 

I literally found springer sandwiches between two stars creams in Walmart. Honestly, if I hadn’t noticed the transformers at the bottom, I’d probably would’ve missed springer.

 

Lucky for you US guys. It’ll definitely be late August at the very least before Springer hits UK side without importing on your own. Which I have done...couldn’t wait  

 

I take it back at Chromia not being anime accurate. Aside from the lack of lip gloss and those red patches in her metal panties, she IS accurate to her design from Search for Alpha Trion. She actually had blue shoulder pads. Only her feet tips were not white(the toy) Even Moonracer sported that yellow stripe on her robo shorts. Greenlight too. (Went back on a Shout! TF G1 binge the other day)
