    Are the figures there priced priced alright? I'm also interested in some of the Classics I missed, too, so that sounds good, but I don't want to pay $10 more than I can either on eBay or an online store.

    I got Henkei Astrotrain there for $25, which is basically what he costs plus shipping. Good people are at Image Anime.

    Ok. If that's the case, I might get Henkei Classics Megs if they have him and if he's not way overpriced, as well. Hopefully they have some other Classics, I want to round out my set, since I missed out on that line. I'm gonna stop by next week.

    They may be good people, but they are always overpriced.

    32 dollars for a Henkei. 10 dollars more then most stores, I went in there and bought 5 henkeis and asked for a discount and the dude said NO!

    Look at the website

    C-13 Transformers Classics - Hound

    Inferno is 55 without shipping
    C-15 Transformers Classics - Inferno

    No offense I'm glad you like them but I buy online cheeper.

    Hello all Im new here but I have been lurking at these forums for a long time. I go to Image Anime for some items but rarely any transformers. At Image expect to pay the price of the item plus the shipping cost, especially for highly sought after items. They are a business trying to make money. Im pretty cool with the owner and he will hold items for me but dont expect a discount. They don't do it for anyone.

    It's a good store if you really want your item now. If your willing to wait and shop around you'll usually find better prices though.

    And now for my sightings contribution.

    I spotted one Animated Shockwave at the Bronx Target on 3/17/09 and nothing but Dinobot's,Cheetor's, 1 safeguard and a couple of atomic Lugnut's at the Mount Vernon Target on 3/19/09.

    Anyone seen Wreck-Gar, Vector Prime or Leo Prime in Manhattan or the Bronx Area?

    I have seen and bought Leo Prime from the Forbidden Planet near Union Square. They have Wreck-Gar there as well. Prices are to be expected but cheaper then amazon and big bad including shipping. Good hunting!

    Not I.
    Add to that list Hicksville Target, Uniondale Walmart, Massapequa TRU, and Farmingdale Target. No Wreckgar yet I've seen.

    LG TRU had Animated Wasp & Samurai Prowl tonight, 1 of each.

    Target Setauket had Animated G1 Shockwave & Sunstorm. About 5 of each left. Wreck Gar - 1 left, and 2 Atomic Lugnut.

    4th World Comics has Universe Classics Hotshot & Ratchet so keep your eyes peeled, they'll be hitting retail this weekend probably.

    No Legends Cosmos/Hotrod/Weelie/etc... to be found. I am looking for Animated Skywarp if anyone sees him, please stash & PM me.

    The Hamburg/Blasedel area Target and TRU are bare. I saw 2 dinobots at Taget, and a Blurr at TRU. TRU has some older Animated voyagers, and Target has a few Universe Voyagers. Deluxes, however, are scarce.
