    Ahh is it that time of the year again? It seems like only yesterday the White Knights of Metroplex raided HTS after countless nights of ctrl+r :D 

    BBTS did have the dinobots set for a pretty hefty price, but they still sold out

    SDCC 2014 Exclusive Dinobots Set - Transformers 2010 - 2014 Transformers Exclusives

    They still have the other set, but it will also run you some pretty nice coin.

    The only figures I'm looking for this year are Jem and Mane-iac. I caved and bought Jem from ebay but I didn't pay anything near the asking price BBTS had.

    The amazon exclusive Sludge to go with the dinobots set is now up for preorder, for those hoping to get a complete set.

    I preordered Sludge with the hopes that if I snag the Dinobots set I can sell all five together and keep The Ark

    Thanks to a friend at SDCC texting me asking if I wanted anything at the Hasbro booth, I won't have to stalk HTS this year... :D

    I'm trying to remember doesn't HTS usually go up on Tuesday with SDCC stuff. I know last year was screwed up from the whole Harmony Gold, GI Joe Jetfire set thing, but the previous 2 years it was around 10am CST on Tuesdays right?

    I was fortunate to have a friend get me the dinobot set at SDCC, but the kreons were sold out. Found a guy on ebay with them for $99 shipped and took the bait. I know I could have them for $70 shipped from HTS, but every year I miss the rush on their site due to this pesky thing called a job, so it is probably worth it.
