    I h avn't even bothered calling my local stores, cause I was at all of them today, and there's no way any of them are going to be getting Classics anytime soon :( 

    why the HELL does my TRU have THIRTY FOUR Supreme Starscreams????? :banghead:

    Nope, I work in Novato, in the county between SF and Sonoma. And yes he is. He got busted in my town (Petaluma) thanks to him, the Polly Klass thing and the last Dateline to Catch a Criminal show being shot here in P-town is getting quite a seedy name for it’s self.

    My BBTS order hasn't arrived yet, but I too am hooked on the Classics. BTW, IMHO 99.8% of all Transformers are plactic-crack. :D

    My local TRU supposedly got them in thursday night. I, not wanting to miss any part of the con ( started at 9 ), didn't go check Friday morning ( TRU opened at 10 ). Later in the day, I saw people carrying classics around and heard that the local TRU got them in. They said the store got raped twice, once analy. Add my childhood to the list as well. :(

    I'm definently addicted and eagerly awaiting my shipment from BBTS which left their wharehouse on Saturday... so I should see my first four deluxes by Thursday or Friday. YAY!

    Waiting on my Prime & Megs sense I went ahead and did the group preorder that included Jetfire... but boy does Jetfire look worth the extra month wait!!!!

    Awesome pics man!

    One thing I've been wondering though is how tall are they in comparison to guys from Cybertron & Energon?

    Ouch. See IG, I told you bringing the Con here was a bad idea. Our hunting spots got plundered and we have no loot to find for at least another week. :(  Damn you blasted buzzards!!! Git! Shoo! :lol

    I was an addict even before I got one. This morning I bought my first Classic, Astrotrain. Honestly, I kept myself under control pretty good, then I rubbed the rubsign. Man, at the point, the five year old fanboy in me came out. I hooked.

    I dont know if I can describe myself as an addict. I love the designs, but I cant really get these as I need the money for things like rent and I dont have the shelf space to actually display them :( 

    Screw it. I WANT EM! I WANT EM NOW! GIMME GIMME GIMME

    And here I thought that area was full of rich people with posh neighborhoods and good schools... What was I thinking?!?:lol 
    They're roughly the same size as far as deluxes and voyagers go from CYB and ENG... Megatron is taller than Optimus for the voyagers and Bumblebee is the shortest and Astrotrain is the tallest for the deluxes...
    Yup, you're an addict when everything else of importance in priority gets shoved behind these awesome pieces of plastic crack...

    Who needs food, drink, rent, bills, etc??? GIVE ME CLASSICS!!!

    I'm onesock. I kill children for their Happy Meals, return them to McDonald's, and use the money for Classics. I think I'm an addict. Does this make me a bad person?

    I know i'm having Classic withdrawl cause I don't have the cash to hunting for them. The one time that some of the first TRU sightings where near me and I don't have any cash for them till Firday. It just figures.

    I have to say I'm addicted, I was seriously thinking about putting collecting on hold for a while. I liked most of the Cybertorn line, but noitced i wasn't as excited about it as I used to be. Then I heard classics were out in Oregon, and thought what the heck I'll buy a few of the first wave just for kicks and see if they live up to the hype and pics. And damn it they do, love bumble bee, he turned out awesome. I now own all of wave 1.

    This may test how devoted some who preorder are to the Classics:
    BBTS has Grimock and Mirage for $19.99 and $14.99, respectively.
