    Perhaps Acid Storm? I always liked him.

    If it was me...and it isn't, I would do one of two things with Skywarp...I would either detail the piss out of him...leave him as Skywarp, but with alot more paint apps, or I would take him apart and carefully re-paint him into Sunstorm.
    I made my photobucket into a public account, so theoretically anyone should be able to look at my pics now...I don't think theres any nudies in there LOL, but if there is...well hey..bonus!

    Roseville Target had two Skystalkers. WSP Target had a Bludgeon. Not sure if either are still newsworthy. Both Targets still had their sales going, though, and said it runs through 3/20. Hopefully I'll spot a Lockdown at Target in the next couple weeks (without having to drive across town for!)...otherwise maybe I'll just go to Wally and have them price match.

    I had a dentist appointment this afternoon and checked the Woodbury Target afterward. Animated figures were 75% off, despite only being marked at 30%. I picked up voyager Skywarp for ~$5 and activators Megatron for $2.11. Total was $7 and change. :)  Nothing decent remaining, and they have stacks of their exclusives still at 50% off.

    Nothing of interest at the White Bear Ave Target after work. Lot of exclusives, still at 50% off....

    Cool Customs Steelieboy. I like your movie Sideswipe(the way he should've been) and Sunstreaker, love the color of the metal. These should have been the twins in the Movie. I see a lot of customs with this color on metal but sadly it'll never happen on retail figures. And of course I got no paint skills so, that's that. I also really like your deluxe Sunstorm, btw a MP Sunstorm would be sweeet, as you suggested. Also, is that suppose to be a Leader-1 Animated? Great work!

    Dang...I was there the other night and it was marked at like $7. Woulda picked one up for $3. Anyhow, what I would call New Brighton Target (but I think those here call it STA Target) has the latest deluxe figs. I picked up a Lockdown so I hope he live up to the hype... They also had a voyager Shockwave, but he was still marked at 30% off and unfortunately scanned as such.

    You have nothing to worry about. Lockdown is one incredible figure. No doubt about it.

    I was just at that Target(STA, New Brighton, but officially NE Mineapolis). All their exclusives are at 75%off now, loads of Burning Fallen, Leo Prime, and maybe 7 legends pack. Didn't pick up anything. The Voyager Grey Shockwave is also marked to 75%off at $5, it's still there when I left.

    Roseville Target has the same deal on their exclusives. I really dislike the Leo Prime Mold, so I didn't pick up anymore.

    Edit: Forgot to mention that the Showdown with the Fallen Robot Heros Scene is also marked 75%off at NE Min Target

    Weird...the sticker said $15 when I was there as well as scanned $15. Looks like I'll have to stop again when I get off work. Guess I should have said yes when the employee that was putting new tags on the exclusives asked if he could help me with anything...

    Decided to take a 15 min break and grab him so he's gone, but if you want an exclusive, there's still a couple of those left or 20... :)
