This might not be the right place for this, but does anyone have the Walmart repaints of Prime and Megs on pre-order? Mine are "delayed" and they have authorized my bank card 4 separate times, letting the previous authorization fall off before the next time. It's irritating.
Not gonna lie I cancelled my preorder of Optimus after Earthrise Prime was revealed. But I will say my card was auth-charged twice before I cancelled. I thought maybe it was because the authorization fell off on Saturday
The Toy Department has everything at 10% off this weekend. They have three Siege Reflectors ($18 each before discount) in case anybody is looking for one or three. I almost bought all three. The G1 selection is really good right now too. Anybody going to the toy show at the Sharonville Convention Center tomorrow?
My Target(Fairview) finally got some new Siege, Impactor and Autobot Sixgun behind him. I bought the Impactor and I'm just waiting for Mirage now.
Hello, I actually live down in Holmes County so I get royally hosed when it comes to anything TF related. Our Walmart barely stocks deluxe and voyager scale stuff. Having grown up in Texas though I'm accustomed to driving long distances so I will cover a larger area than most when it comes to looking stuff. It's not outside of normal for me to go as far west as Ontario/Mansfield, north to Cleveland, northeast to Massilon, Canton, Akron, Cuyahoga Falls. Back in the day my wife and I would make an entire day of just driving around and looking for bots but because of price, size, quality, etc
Thanks for the reply. It's "nice" to know that I'm not the only Ohio bot collector that's in a dead done as far as availability. I'm a disabled U. S. Marine and unable to drive but if you ever are headed up around Wadsworth and need someone to ride shotgun on a bot hunting run/trip I'd be more than happy to ride along with you. Just lemme know when and I'll be ready to go.
I seen that yesterday, I was wondering where impactor was. Also been seeing tons of g1 soundwave everywhere
I wonder if that's the price across the board or just there. Since we don't have any agents out towards Washington Courthouse, I'm tempted to drive out to that Walmart tonight and see if they've got any left.
Man I would happily buy a Jetfire at that price. I've been putting off picking up Jetfire ONLY because of the price and my very limited disability check each month. However, at $19.... I always have $20 held back for an "emergency" like a $19 Jetfire. If anyone in Ohio finds a Jetfire at that price and feels like helping out a nuclear dumpster fire, catastrophically disabled United States Marine... I'd gladly reimburse you on Paypal (and pay for shipping as well of course). I did manage to get what I thought was a good deal on the Siege Voyager Optimus Prime and Megatron. I picked up both bots new and in their packages for $44.00 total. Just like Jetfire; I'd been putting off buying both Optimus and Megatron because... well they're expensive for me. I try to prioritize which bots I want and then HOW MANY bots I can get from my "want list" for the same price as buying one expensive bot. For instance, if I decide that I've got $150 to spend in an entire month on bots... and I could, and desperately WANT to buy OMEGA SUPREME (which I simply MUST own at some point as he is my very favorite LARGE good guy bot from all the way back when I was a kid and first saw Omega Supreme on the cartoon just as Devastator is my very favorite LARGE bad guy bot)... BUT, I also could pick up 6-8 of the SIEGE DELUXE figures for the same price or twice as many or more of the Mini Bots or Mini Cons (or whatever you fellas call them.... I'm talking about bots like Beachcomber, Powerglide, Seaspray etc... I really, REALLY like the mini bots and always have). So... that's my dilemma with collecting Transformers in the disabled financial "state" that I live in now. lol. So... it's always a battle for me to prioritize which bots I want to get. Of course; I also have to constantly consider the availability factor for each bot and how long it's been available and how long before I'll never find it again....sigh. Anyways, I picked up Optimus Prime and Megatron on BBTS if anyone else is looking to get those two bots.
Tell ya what, if I strike it lucky when I drive out into the wilds, I'll pick up any extras and we can figure it out later. I mean, at $19 a pop, it'd be silly not to.
Very cool! Even if you don't find anything, i greatly appreciate the gesture alone. You fellas really do have a community of sorts on this message board and that in an of itself is refreshing to me based on the way the world seems to "work" now.
