Found a Legacy Blitzwing on a pallet n CoMo Walmart. Unfortunately it was packed by itself with a galvatron so I grabbed the only one as far as I could tell, but means they should be showing up elsewhere. this was at W broadway.
I get it's accurate to...something (comics?) but I can't get past the color palette. I'd like to see a repaint in the Orange and Bone color scheme that other iterations of the character have had.
The origin of the character in the Marvel G2 comics and his appearance in the IDW comics. Nobody knows why the KB Toys Jetstorm redeco was orange, but the Generations toy was orange because Kyde left Hasbro and whoever replaced him didn’t know what the intended color scheme was supposed to be. Clearly there was a miscommunication and they referenced the KB Toys version instead of the comics as Kyde had intended. https://t.co/iSwuU9lk3s
Amazon came through again with sludge but man his knee joints are loose to point where he can't stand without trying to win the Kaon limbo contest. The QC is way the hell off...
Just spoke to Amazon, they couldn't replace him so they refunded me $30. I'm going to try to see if I can fix it myself.
The Columbia Target has two Junkheaps. They also had one clearance Silverstreak, but the paint on his head was AWFUL.
The Target up by @Whovian Zorker neck of the woods has the new 4-pack. They’re still unloading freight so it’s not on the floor yet. I’m probably going to head up there later today once it’s more likely that they can find it. I’m being a bit vague to stymie any scalpers who might be perusing the boards. If anyone gets up there before me, if you’re willing to grab a set for @matrixprime and I to split, I would be most appreciative. EDIT: @Whovian Zorker infiltrated the location and absconded with two sets, one for him and one for MP and me. I am satiated.
It’s not all that great, you should probably pass it up… Ok, I couldn’t keep that going. Just look at this shiny lad:
Well I hit up the two most likely stores and they weren’t out and nobody wanted to grab them from the back if they had them.
Shoulda PM'd me, brother. Sorry. Target in Florissant on North Lindbergh. They should have one left since @Patrickab7 took the third one. They didn't have a location listed yet when the Target employee did a location check, because it came in on today's truck. So you would have to ask someone to check the DPCI and go look in the back. Here's what you guys/gals/bots should do if you want this set. Wait until about 9-10am and call a Target store. I usually rotate which one I call so I don't get people at a specific store irritated at me. When the phone system picks up, hit 2 and then 2 again, this should go to guest services. "Hi, is there someone available who can do a location check on a DPCI number for me?" Repeat the question if necessary. Once they are ready, the number is 087-16-0184. Make sure it comes up as a Transformers item (specifically Transformers BB Legacy Multipack). Ask if they have any on-hand. -If the answer is yes, ask if someone can verify if it's on the floor or in the back room. -If the answer is no, ask if they can check other stores in the area to see if any have some on hand. And then if you want to be nice you can come post the results in here so we aren't all calling the same stores every day. I called Bridgeton yesterday, St. Charles this morning (and they told me only Florissant had some on-hand), and then I called Florissant to confirm with someone at the store. 2-3 phone calls. Not a big deal and they are used to helping check this stuff...believe it or not, it's actually saving them time since we are calling them and asking exactly what we need and we already have the number ready to read off to them. Takes them 30 seconds.
