To my surprise I found the new Megatron at Walmart last night. I passed on the recent-ish leader size Megatron because I didn't feel like spending $50 for it when there are Decepticons I prefer. This one is actually pretty good and I'm impressed considering my expectations weren't high. While his jet mode is great (albeit with a very chunky undercarriage) his tank I find awkward because panels keep popping open and I'm not quite sure if I'm transforming him right. I knew from the moment Hasbro revealed this toy it would be reused for Blitzwing because it was obvious that's who the body was created for so I've included the most recent Blitzwing in my pics for comparison purposes.

Basic. Imagine if they were Legacy and had their weapons? The backlash would be morphenomenal (more so than the ugly metallic Legacy ones coming with the weapons and corrected belts).

Picked up a couple of the new ML X-Wave today-
Polaris and Dazzler Shatterstar I have the whole wave coming so I left behind the lone Shiro- he'll end up with the classic X-Team Dazzler and Polaris ended up on. Warlock will go New Mutants/X-Force, Logan goes to the the Marvel Now shelf, Cyclops to the 90's X-Men and Colossus... probably the garage bins.heh. Last edited by Bo Ttef; 02-20-2017 at 11:45 PM.. |

Leia isn't as bad as I feared, the headsculpt is still quite poor but I can live with it at least until my 40th Anniversary reissue arrives. I already have the rest of the wave in one form or another, I now have a squad of three snowtroopers. The AT-AT driver will probably go on eBay because I already have two. Ben is going on the shelf so I can keep SDCC Ben in his packaging.

Hell, my Walmart has 24 Jynns alone.

Well, at least I managed to find half of the wave...
I want to jump for joy, but I still have to preorder it at BBTS when it goes up since I'm never going to find Cyclops, Colossus, and Shatterstar.

It wasn't a great find. :-(
This happened when opening him: Also, Polaris' head is very loose while the Warlock arm that came with Dazzler has its upper elbow joint broken, so it doesn't lock.

Went out to my local Target today looking to maybe find some new Marvel legends but instead I got the Black Series Boba Fett and Boushh helmet set. Both my Walmart and TRU have totally stopped carrying these helmet packs and any other store that hadn't was just choking on the first two sets so finding this was a nice surprise. My only gripe is that Boba Fett's antenna is made of a soft plastic so it can warp a bit. Still though it is Boba Fett's helmet so it's still great and then I've always liked Leia's Boushh helmet, it's just a good design I think that feels very alien in nature even though a human wears it.

You will not believe what I found at my Walgreens this week on Wednesday!!
Yup, they had a $9.99 clearance sticker on both!! It's shame I didn't catch the rest of the waive for that price, they were the only ones there for that price. I had to look around cuz they were with the "clearance" items, so... I kept looking for the other figures, but they were obviously not there. So, someone made off w/ a steal w/ Angela and Nova if they were priced like these were! Anyway, I was kinda, "meh" on Starlord until I noticed his "blaster" has more paint decor than the last one. The guy at the counter wasn't gonna give it to me at the price cuz he knew the movie wasn't out yet... But when the manager came over, some one who cares less, simply said, "give it to him for the marked price" BAM! It was ringing up full price, 19.98 or something. walgreens by Erasto Padron, on Flickr MLreceipt by Erasto Padron, on Flickr starlrd by Erasto Padron, on Flickr yondu by Erasto Padron, on Flickr |
