    They just straight-up canceled my Overload, so you are doing better than me!

    Do you still need one? Depending on how far you are from the Eagan area I might be able to find a way to get this to you.

    That is, if it ever shows up. I've seen it in physical stores already for crissakes.

    I do need one, but I don't expect to have much trouble finding one in store. I've seen all of the Constructicons shelf warming at some point, so I figure I'll find one eventually. Just annoyed because I got it during the BOGO50% deal and they canceled it unexpectedly. All the other ones I've gotten the chance to do the Approve Delay thing, but for some reason they just canceled that one without giving me the chance to approve it.

    That deal was such a giant mess. I ended up cancelling basically everything I had ordered. Shakopee WalMart has a mess of them (some on the high shelf, too) so he's not impossible to find.

    Also, picked up that Sunstreaker from Edina last night. He's good! It's weird that something can have such similar engineering to Wheeljack but transform completely differently and use all different molding.

    Thanks. I'm on the north side, but I'll keep my eye out up here and try to pick one up from Wally World or Tarjae.

    I'll hold the PO just in case.

    Also, can start keeping an eye out. He's ringing up as a Voyager at Target which could be part if what's screwing everything up online. Who knows, the whole thing is a giant fart at this point.

    Thanks for the heads up, order placed!

    Link? I can't find that pre-order.
    EDIT: nevermind, found it https://www.amazon.com/Transformers...-EXCLUSIVE/dp/B0855748HF/?tag=transformers-20
    EDIT 2: Link to all the "Galactic Odyssey" sets up on Amazon Amazon.com : Cybertron Galactic Odyssey

    Shakopee Walmart was stripped clean of G1 Blasters last night that I could see. Shelf tag said $29.xx, was he always that much or is that a clearance price?

    Is the judge in there the same as the one they sold by itself? Mine Target Judge got canceled so maybe I should just order that instead...

    Slightly different colors, same mold. If you like Alicon it's worth getting because the Baliff is pretty different from the normal alicon.

    Just tossing this out there but would anyone be interested in a Combiner Wars Cyclonus that I'm trying to sell for 12 bucks? IF someone doesn't take him soon he might be going to Goodwill.

    Is Airwave in stores yet? I wasn't able to get him via Pulse so I am going to have to keep my eyes open at brick and mortar.

    Since I know at least one other person was interested in the McFarlane Warhammers and many of you collect other figurines, I wanted to report on the Space Marine Assault Intercessor I picked up online.

    He's magnificent.

    I hear McFarlane somewhat dipped in quality in the last few years, but this is a tremendous return to form. It makes any other 6 and 7 inch action figures just look... lame. It's like when you play DOOM and then try to play another shooter game, anything else becomes almost laughable in comparison. For the same price as a Star Wars Black Series figure, you get something with three or four times as much plastic. The heftiness is like a brick! Despite his immense beefiness, he is also surprisingly pose-able. The only vaguely similar comparison I can think of for this guy versus other 6/7 inch figures is when I got the Flame Toys Furai Megatron next to boring old Siege Megatron, except the Space Marine isn't twice the price. I hate to drone on about it, but simply put, this Space Marine is just so much better than any comparable action figure I've seen or handled to date.
