    I think they'd be perfect for your diving with TF's pictures. The Seacons belong in the sea.

    Mine are on their way to my POL. :D  Once Wave 2 of Generations comes in they'll be on their way. One of the few things staying MISB in my collection since I have the originals but the Seacons are my favorite gestalt.

    In short, it helps you save on shipping. Kinda like when you combine shipping on eBay.

    Others have clarified a bit already, but it is basically a virtual shopping cart that you can keep adding things to (for up to 180 days). When you add something else to it, it adjusts your shipping for the new weight. It then bases your shipping price on the new weight total whenever you add an item. Saves a lot on shipping over time. Kind of an open order till you decide you want to close and ship it.

    When you want to ship your merchandise, you just click on "Ship my Loot" It is great if you don't need your stuff right now.

    The Pile of Loot is awesome. It's one of the chief selling points (to me) for BBTS. It's so nice being able to let things stack up for a while and then just bulk-ship them all... you save on shipping and it all arrives at once, nice and tidy, versus having a million little boxes.

    I was recently out of the country for about six months, and the PoL was a life-saver... I could just let stuff pile up there, and not have to ask my wife to sign for a bunch of small package deliveries all the time.

    Now I just need to decide if I really want the damn thing, it's in my POL but I have yet to pay for it. Not sure if I really want this guy as I have a decent vintage set. That's $60 I could put towards Munitioner and Explorer, which I want a lot more then these guys.

    i say go for it and get it...if later on you don't want it...im pretty sure its gonna be one of those hard to get toys after bbts sells out of them......then if you don't want it..you can unload it for a few bucks extra

    Like some of you guys, the reissue Piranacon is in my BBTS POL, but I'm not sure if I'll go through with it. I have a complete vintage Piranacon, and besides I hear this reissue has some quality issues.

    Don't you get charge for it before it goes in your POL? Or are you saying you still have 15days to cancel and get the store credit to buy Munitioner and Explorer.

    Guess Seacons are just not as popular as other combiners... for example Combaticons. I like'em though for $60.
