    I’m a Jetfire fan, not a Skyfire fan. But I gave in to the hype because one of my best friends got him and talked him up. He’s huge, he looks great, he has some neat engineering tweaks, and he’s very close to cartoon accurate.

    That said, he has a few frustrating aspects, mainly due to tolerances or plastic quality. But he’s really great despite those. If you have room for him on a shelf, he’s definitely worth the money.

    My credit cards are getting far too close to their limits, so it's more a matter of finances than anything else. If money wasn't an object, I'd have ordered Jetfire(and Omega) online months ago. As is, I may have to wait till the prices drop a bit.

    Checked Bridgeton Walmart after work and didn't see Jetfire. Probably should have just asked someone who works there.

    I ordered Jetfire from Entertainment Earth and used the promo code INSDCC2019 (code is good until 8/15) and Got $10 off and Free shipping. Has to be an instock item. he's showing out of stock right now, but I kept checking throughout the day (for a week) and he finally showed up. Came out to Be $75 to get him delivered to me. Omega I KNOW will go on sale during Christmas. I'll be patient on him ....first sale where he's $5 off I'll probably jump though lol.

    Jetfire though...Pretty sure hes gonna be a scarce one and didnt want to risk not getting mine.

    Target in Chesterfield has 2 boxes of rainmakers. Highlighter rainbow starscreams make me kinda dizzy so you guys can have at it.

    Picked up the last voyager long haul they had.

    A few new cyberverse figures, sadly no Cheetor.

    Florissant Target has two of the Rainmaker sets. They didn’t make me dizzy, but they sure look boring. (Of course, they looked boring in the original animation, too.)

    Chesterfield Target also has some of the new wave of Caliban. Boomer, Guardian, and one or two others.

    And yes, the Rainmakers do look boring.

    Florissant has two rainmakers, if anyone is interested. Seems to be plenty strewn about.

    I wonder if those are the same ones I saw Friday.

    When I stopped in this afternoon, there was also a Cheetor. I guess it probably sold. (Boat buddies!)
