    The journey is complete. After getting the price adjusted on MPM Starscream twice, I've finally gotten it down to $45. Brings a tear to my eye.

    I hope they stick with bayverse. I have a feeling that if the 86 studio series figures sell well hasbro would do it again with Transformers Prime Beast Hunters: Predacons Rising since it is also technically a movie.

    I have no idea what the tab is for but I have had no ill effects from cutting it off. It also helps to untab the collar piece and angle it upwards while tilting his head all the way up. The combination of those two allows him to have awesome "looking up" powers.
    The bay designs are way more agile and mobile looking. Shows in the movies where the parts move around and with each other. Animating them must have been quite the challenge!
    Better turn off that emotion chip bro.

    Plus, they’re much more visually interesting. I do have my problems with some of the designs, but it’s still cool when I discover little tiny details in the CGI models to this day.

    I’m going to miss most of the Bayformer designs like Witwicky trilogy Optimus, Bumblebee, Ironhide, Starscream, and Shockwave.

    Walmart still hasn't shipped my Overload. Saw someone got an email too. What's weird is that in my email they gave me a time instead of a date, and the bottom of the email had a blank space under the ITEM NAME. Has anyone here gotten any shipping confirmation from them or any other online retailers besides Amazon? It seems it isn't just Walmart.

    The first time I took my receipt to the return desk and told then it was now 50% off. Since I bought it within 2 weeks, they were able to give me the clearance price. The second time, I had to buy a new one from a store that had it at 70% off and take it back to the original store and return it using my $80 reciept. Apparently cross store returns aren't allowed, so that's why I had to take it to the first store so I could use the original receipt.

    Anyway, I would check popfinder for stores that have both Starscream and Ratchet in stock. Those ones will likely have Starscream on the 70% discount. Especially if there are multiples.

    I doubt Ratchet will go on sale as quickly, but I now have an extra $100 plus $40 off for opening a Redcard AND an additional 5% off when I use that card. So I should be able to get Ratchet for under $80 or possibly less if I try waiting for clearance. Thanks Target!

    Dude.

    Is there a Bayverse design you dislike? Or do you love everything because it's Bayverse?

    Nah I don’t everything Bayverse. I don’t like the designs of Aoe and Tlk characters, exceptions being Crosshairs, Drift, Stinger, Berserker, Lockdown, and Hound
