I have that Prowl and Megatron, but I would like Trailcutter! Also, I've decided to save my money up for any G1 reissues, or Prime toys that look really cool (Skyquake).
Uhh... not sure if you care, but London Drugs has legends figures on clearance for 3 bucks, some of which are Trailcutter, Starscream & Prowl. Megatron's part of these group too, but I wasn't in the Kelowna store to verify stock. I just remember seeing those 3 in the westside store when I was picking up Tracks.
I dunno man, pictures don't do this fucker justice, but it's all good. Cyberverse Ratchet's totally gonna be mine. :)
It's all good. I just didn't want you to miss out if like me, you wouldn't have even known about it or considered it because it used to be like 60+ bucks.
Well, if you ignore the last couple of months, I haven't bought anything big in regards to Transformers since the ultra class primal/megs from the 96/97 beast wars line (who are much bigger than the deluxes & bascis that I'm used to), so having guys like unicron & leader starscream now feels really strange. The premium bee is REALLY nice though (especially for only 20 bucks), even if it's mainly a display piece due to it's size/weight (it's taller than my leader screamer & quite a lot heavier). The alt mode easily rivals the die cast cars, and those are usually 15-30 bucks in their own right... plus it becomes a giant robot with a nicer finish than anything non-japanese. Mine also speaks french or something which I think is hilarious, so yeah. Not trying to drain your wallet or anything, but you know hehe
They had plenty of each. I didn't go to the TRU, so I don't have a recent count of what TF Prime stuff exists. The 2 Bulkheads were gone when I went there on Boxing day, though. Uhh, I was also at the Westside London Drugs, and they had RTS deluxes for 9 bucks. After I left they had 2 jazz/2 tracks/2 bumblbee/2 g2 prime/1 preceptor. Half of em are in the main toy section by the magzines, and the other half are in the random middle area closer to the canada post depot.
So uhh yeah. Not sure if you care, but I was just in the Kelowna Wal-Mart & they've got 5 of those costco battle ops bumblebess for 20 bucks (the really big shiny gold one that comes with 2 legends). They also have the generations wave with thundercracker, scourge, kup, wheeljack & warpath for 10 bucks.
Speaking of games, EB apparently has the dotm game for 10 bucks, so yeah. Also about Bulk, I'm sure he'll resurface once he sells out. I mean, it's not like there's a shitload of collectors in the area anyways (not that I know of or that're anywhere near as much of a hunter as me anyway haha), and the voyager prime is easily just as good.
Speaking of TFs, I was just in TRU & they had a bunch of new stock. There were 2 voyager bulkheads, a bunch of voyager primes that came with em, 2 MP Rodimus left, plenty of Unicrons, 1 Cliffjumper left (I grabbed the 2nd), and 1 Bumblebee deluxe. They also had dotm wave 4 for the 1st time, or whatever one has the cyberfire bee & red specialist ratchet. I also saw the blue thundercracker & Laserbeak, and yeah. Oh yeah, and don't forget that there'll be a 40% off sale after christmas & that deluxes will be 6 bucks, and according to the people at customer service, they'll do the regular price adjustments if you're within the 14 day window. In other words, if you buy Bulkhead now while they still have him at full price, you should be able to go back there on the 27th & get a 40% credit or whatever.
Muhahah those sound like good ones. When I get around to it, I should look for the 1st Medievil game or something. That was some fun shit, and I'll let you know if I ever see Bulkhead & Prime. Judging by how fast they got everything else from the prime lineup, I wouldn't be surprised if these show up soon too... and then of course sell out at the same speed hah.
Right, I forgot about the clearence. If its not too much trouble, do you remember seeing Jazz, Tracks, or any deluxes that're more solid? I'm asking because Im gonna have to buy something for my little cousins pretty soon, and those seem better for little kids than movie toys.
I'm actually heading out tomorrow, but mostly because my Mom and Grampa need to go out. I'm saving for some video games, so I'm not all that interested in TFs right now. I need to save money so I can get my Revengeance. XD I really want Bulkhead though, so when he shows up I'll get him. Also, I'll check Wally-World to see if they have the later Generation's waves. They are only $8. :)
Hey, I'm not sure if you'll care (maybe about cliffjumper?), but I was just in the Kelowna TRU today (at like noon), and they had a new case of TF Prime deluxes in. I counted... 4 Bumblbee 3 Starscream 2 Cliffjumper 2 Arcee Actually now that I think about it, part of that was probably from a 2nd case, but there might be some shit still there tomororw. There were also 3 Rodumus left, a bunch of new wave 1 dotm deluxes (crankcase, ratchet, etc), 4 or 5 entertainment packs, and like 5 Unicrons left. A couple of hot girls brought me one from the overstock (there was one on the floor but somebody had cut a hole in the box, likely to try & steal the minicon but failed at doing so, so I wanted an unfettered one), and he's definitely worth the bitching my mom gave me after seeing me "buying power ranger toys again". The 30% off sale only applied until tomorrow, and I forgot to scan one of the cliffys to see if they're still 8.86 or whatever they were from before.
That's a good attitude, and chances are that the Vehicon & later incarnations of Bumblebee will be better. Arcee's a total fox, though. :)
Well if I ever see Bulkhead or Starscream, I can always pick him em for you or hide em behind Star Wars shit or whatever.
Glad to hear that you're... handling her well. :) The one I got was basically perfect in regards to quality (yay, no fucked up neck like one dude posted about), except that one of her chest panels doesn't sit as securely as the other. This isn't a big deal because the other one is stiff enough to move a tad bit higher, but yeah. Like I wrote about in one of their feedback threads, I was definitely impressed with both of these, especially in regards to the detail & fluency of the transformation. Also if you still plan on hunting for Starscream & wanna phone in or ask someone there to look it up, his upc is "653569687023".
... so I was at TRU today & managed to pick up an Arcee & Starscream along with that HA Icepick. From what I could tell, there should be 1 Arcee & 3 Bumblebees left, but the place was getting raped pretty hard over the weekend, so no guarantees. :(
Yeah, I lie to myself like that too, but there's still a few on my docket before I can truly take a nap from this stuff. It's a good thing that HA Soundwave & Sky Shadow won't get here for a while, hah.
I saw your thread, but at least you'll have plenty of others to choose from when you swap it. Also, would you be wanting either of those? Like, I'll prolly check on Sunday, so I can hide or grab what's left (if any).
