    I haven't been to Santan Valley in like 2 years. Maybe I'll go take a look. All the Starscreams at Maricopa Walmart are the painless ones. I was going to go to Toy Anxiety to try and sell some of my bots, but they have too many right now. Or I could save gas and wait til the 26th. I do hate being stuck in this city sometimes.

    Well I waited too long. The Santan Wal-Mart was cleaned out of the good stuff. Still a better selection than just about everywhere else though. I'll wait til my Wal-Mart is in stock, but BBM Optimus looks better in person, so I'm getting that. Gonna be recycling my collection again soon.

    Bought deluxe Scrap Metal from the Chandler Mall Target around 1230pm today.

    They have a double dose of that deluxe wave there.

    Since apparently The Starscream pin fix is a hoax, I just went ahead and bought him.

    Did someone confirm it was a hoax somehow or did the OP admit he was trolling?

    No idea. I'm just going by what I read in the thread. There have been no reports of pinned SS in the wild, but if they start popping up with pins, oh well.

    Target on McClintock and Baseline has some Shatters, but nothing else of note besides stuff from the previous wave.

    Just got Shatter, Scrapmetal and Cogman from Target at Ray and I-10 last night, and what a QC POS Shatter is! Both arms and front fenders pop off so easily I cant transform it into alt mode because the parts break loose when I try to snap them into place! The shoulder ball joints are so loose I cant bend the elbows in bot form because they just pop out! Never seen a bot this bad before. I thought WWII Bee was bad, Shatter is a total waste! Not to mention completely unposeable because all her parts get in the way, the legs have gargantuan sides that rotate back and shove right into the backpack which makes the front fenders pop off. I'm so disappointed due to the fact I was looking forward to the figure. The Deluxe figures from this line have all been a bit iffy and fiddly, but Shatter takes the cake!

    This is why I always watch reviews first. This is a widespread issue with Shatter.

    I'm just watching Bumblebee the movie for the first time and I want a figure of the first jet he fights in the movie that transforms into the F-4 Phantom! Who is that supposed to be?

    Well, the alt mode, once I finally got her transformed is really good! I've put super glue on the shoulder ball joints to fatten them up a bit and worked on the fender connections with an x-acto and have it holding together a bit better. It's not perfect, but at least I can get her into alt mode now. Not a great figure but I'm a completionist so I try to get all of a series regardless of reviews and even if the bot didn't exist like Shadow Raider and Sentry, the repaints of Lockdown and Stinger. The only series I'm buying though are Generations and Studio Series at the moment.

    I picked up a Gears and Warpath at the Greenfield and McKellips Walmart earlier this morning. They had one of each left, plus a few Rampages. Brickseek has been saying that they have a case of Siege deluxes for at least the past two weeks. Other new stuff has been put out but not those, so I wonder if it's a glitch.
