This guy has the chrome Superator (Grimlock). I narrowly missed out on buying his cheap TE-01, but maybe my loss is your gain since I remembered his thread. MP-style Sale Thread
I have generations Wheeljack and yeah, he's pretty great, but quality wise, mine hasn't held up over time. Something with the plastics they used in him made him get looser and looser over time until his arms are too loose to even stay on the ball joints when he transforms. Quality wise, even though he's a little bit hollow in the legs because of the transformation scheme, he feels like he's going to hold up better over time. Plus, I really like the added play feature of 5 mm pegs everywhere and the blast effects that come with war for Cybertron. In a way, he feels like a mini masterpiece Wheeljack.
"Scaled back MP" has been kinda the thing with Siege and ER. I remember thinking that with Sideswipe and Prowl especially since they have a very close transformation to their MP counterparts. I'm cool with it. Edina Target had an SS Shockwave and WW2 Hot Rod. I almost grabbed the Hot Rod since everything is 5% off w/Target Circle today (and I think tomorrow), but I passed. 5% off shockwave is pretty good though, if someone wants him! S3 8 and 5-packs for botbots too if people are still looking for them. I know they've been lagging behind pretty bad.
Willmar Target got SS scavenger and Shockwave in yesterday or today... Both seam cool.. Scavenger is priority... But Shockwave has a bad ass paint job... Reminds me of SS Grimlock... But with purple instead. No Earthrise... Yet.. in any size.
Never before have I gotten out of bed and driven this quickly to a Target. They are both in my hand now. Some studio series bbs, arcee, and ww2 hot rod. Not much else of interest.
Cedar does not. Bumped into a guy though who said there was a *Siege* Astro buried among the Shockwave at Richfield Target. I was just there Saturday and saw nothing so...
Found Earthrise Astrotrain and Optimus Prime at Coon Rapids Target. Bought one of each, and left one of each. And then found them both again at Andover Target. Northtown Target had NOTHIN'! No Deluxe or Voyagers yet around the North Metro as far as I can tell yet.
I wonder how many ebays that box variant will go for now. Or rather, how much people will ask for it.
OH! It totally slipped my mind, but Bloomington Target DID have all the S4 botbot 8-packs. Didn't think of it since I have all I need out of those. :EDIT: ER prime and astro already gone at edina. Hopefully it went to someone here instead of a scalper. XD
Friendly reminder, if you own Thrilling 30 Legends class Prime... you already own a compatible Roller!
Question for the people that bought earthrise astrotrain, the piece of the map included with him is it the same as Optimus or is it different?
