    I’m done for the year, as per my personal rule, I do more buying for others this time of year, then for myself. That said, the last few things I got before enacting this rule were SS86 Sludge, Spike and Wheelie… along with 5 Toyhax sets, due to some good Black Friday deals.

    Unless Velocitron Scourge goes on sale, the last purchases of the year for me are SS Crosshairs and Hotrod.

    I forgot about Tarn. I did a Movies Unlimited PO for that guy. Hopefully it comes through but I bet it will be January and my first of the new year

    So far it's looking like Victory Saber will be my final Transformer for the year, got him in yesterday and he's a good one to go out on

    Yeah so far everything mainline has been at least two months earlier than PO’s. Legacy and SS ROTB are likely to hit in January all things considered.

    Victory Saber (just arrived yesterday) and Legacy Prime Arcee. I finally caved and got Arcee off Amazon while shopping for a few things I needed to get.

    VS lives up to the hype. I never got Unicron but I’m now a HasLab believer. I look forward to DS next year and future HasLabs.

    Apparently Victory Saber will be my last, unless Pulse actually ships out that Galaxy Shuttle I supposedly bought or I just get one on Ebay or get lucky and find one in a store.

    Well I've got quite a bit coming in, so far gotten lucky finding Prize Figures of the Nakano Quints for the Anime collection for about $20 or so each so have 2 of those coming.


    Got in today:
    Gundam Robot Spirits Dom Tropen

    Picked Up Today online:
    Transformers Optimal Optimus Head for Robot Mode to get my Optimal Optimus finally close to being completed!
    Taito Coreful Ichika Nakano Prize Figure
    Transformers Generations Legacy Wreck N Rule Diaclone Universe Twin Twist -Saw it was $20 and grabbed it at that price
    Gundam Universe GP-01 FB
    Star Wars Vintage Collection ARC Trooper Fives


    Picked up Earlier this week online:
    Taito Coreful Nino Nakano Prize Figure
    Banpresto Reincarnated as a Slime Rimuru Tempest Prize Figure
    Sword Art Online Kirito Figma
    Fate Grand Order ConoFig Shielder
    Gi Joe Classified Dusty -Will be arriving tomorrow!
    NECA TMNT II Ultimate Shredder


    I feel like I've gotten enough here and did well to find a lot of things great deals [The Rimuru Prize Figure was only $13, Nino was about $21 and Ichika was about the Same price also scored Kirito for about $40 something bucks from a good friend of mine and paid less than that for the ConoFig Shielder.]


    This is an excellent assortment of figures for the last part of the Month and with how cold it's getting I want to stay in bed and Hibernate and after tomorrow's Trip to the Grocery to get Groceries I'm not gonna do much of anything else if I can avoid it.

    Kinda tempted for the Wreck N Rule Springer Repaint but if that drops to under $20 I'll snag that one.

    I've got a little pile of stuff I'm saving for Christmas. The Fallen, DOTM Bee, Velocitron Scourge, and the Amazon Sideswipe & Skywarp 2 pack. The revival of Japanese non-G1 stuff has been my favorite thing this year.

    Is Hound out/available? Or did you source it from somewhere else?

    As for me, unless something hits an early release, it will probably be Terran Twitch for me, supposed to be arriving tomorrow.

    So it looks like Holiday Optimus has arrived and will most likely be my last purchase of the year!

    Last transformers I received this year was motormaster and sludge in August. Not shit has came in stock for me since. Dumbass distribution. I hope 2023 is better and waves actually come in stock in the right year.

    Thanks. I was afraid I'd missed some pre-order drop.

    I'm hoping my Masterpiece Trailbreaker arrives before New Year's Eve. I believe he releases on the 24th and Amazon.jp/DHL should get it to me by mid-week after that.

    If not, HasLab Victory Saber is my last figure of 2022!
