    Someone about to get torn up! Man-At-Arms looks like he is about to crap his helmet in that last pic.

    Nice! And nice selection of TFs there too.


    Sightings wise...hit the Russellville Wal-Mart. They had some Pipes and Slammer (finallly) and all those Kingdom Rodimus are clearanced at $62. That was about it.

    ...crap his helmet... :lolol 
    Just wait, there's more!
    I need to pick me up one of them pipes myself thus weekend.
    Oh yeah, shattered glass jetfire went back up for sale on Pulse the other day and Mike let me.know about it so since neither of us are premium members, we couldn't order it. :crazy: 
    Thankfully, Adrian IS. So he got it ordered for me.
    Thanks for looking out for me guys! That's why us Arkansas peeps rock!

    A Titans Return Beachcomber?

    You're using the LK limbs from the CW set? So want something smaller than a deluxe for Jaruga? If a deluxe, CW Swindle would fit fairly well alt-mode wise.

    If you don’t want him to combine I’d go with siege mirage. Vehicle is a similar shape with the big thing in the back, and chests have similar detailing.

    I think probably Pulse members got a chance to order first, then after a certain amount of time non-members would be able to order. But he might've sold out during that time again, he's sold out now!

    I'm a member and just got my order in for DK-2 Guard(aka Black Diaclone Earthrise Ironhide). I ordered one for myself and then ordered one for a friend, separate order to ship directly to him. Weird thing is my order was at $22.99 and the second order was $24.99. So I'd expect all deluxe prices in store to bump up to $24.99 soon as the MSRP.

    That makes sense.
    I saw someone else talking about the sudden price change just a bit ago...

    If the combining feature was not important, I could see Cybertron Scout Class Scattorshot being a good base.

    I wish I had gotten to order him earlier at $22.99. I am a premium member but I didn't see the notice until well after the premium window ended and saw the MSRP was $24.99 now. It wouldn't surprise me if by this time next year, deluxes would be pushing $30 each.

    SG Jetfire actually lasted all the way into the wee hours of Saturday morning which surprised me. I'm kinda glad he sold out because I was really arguing with myself whether to get him or not. If he had lasted a little longer, I would probably have caved and got him.

    I don't think the price difference was based on a premium window. I placed both orders in the first 20 minutes, I think $22.99 was just an initial pricing mistake and it quickly got fixed to $24.99. Kinda like when the Centruion Drone/Accessory pack was first $19.99 but then got bumped up to $29.99, though I think that lasted longer than 15 minutes.

    I love some GI Joe but it made me hungry for real BBQ. GI Joe + Smoked Chicken BBQ burrito = GOOD DAY!

    I think that's one of the Joes I'll pass on. Did pick up a few recently though and now i've got Destro, Snake Eyes, Alley Viper, B.A.T. , Storm Shadow (Amazon), and Major Bludd.....not too bad of a line up. Hopefully find next wave soon

    At the moment, I have Snake Eyes (wave 1), Beachhead, Flint, Lady Jaye, Roadblock (wave 1 redeco), BBQ, Cobra Commander, Viper, Alley Viper, Firefly and Major Bludd.

    With the prices supposedly going up on GI Joe and the Target exclusive issues, Im not going to be a completionist by any means. If know there are three different Cobra Troopers, Ill just get one, and pass on that upcoming Viper 3 pack. Also passing on the Tiger Force and Python Patrol repaints. Do kinda want Breaker but Im fine with these figures not having any vehicles.

    I might try to do TF as I'm a big fan of it but I won't get everything they put out. I know I want the Cobra Storm Shadow and I've heard of a rumored Mutt and Junkyard which I'll get. I want to get Firefly and the Amazon Roadblock b/c it has the original deco but yeah with the price going up it'll be hit and miss for me.

    Citi Trends near University & Asher: I picked up SDCC 2013 Shockwave's lab for $40, SDCC 2014 AOE Dinobots/Ark/Teletraan set for $80. They also had Throne of the Primes Primal for $50 and ER OP for $13. But they only had 1 of each! Might be worth checking out the other locations like on Geyer Springs, also North Little Rock, Jacksonville, and Conway. I should've picked up the ER OP just as a cheap customizing base.
