Also picked up MU Capt. Marvel and Doc Samson to fill in some gaps in my collection (and so I don't fall too much further behind on Series 3). Thankfully, I gave up on trying to get all the single-carded variants after Series 1.

Wouldn't work. It's off-topic, even if toys were involved.

Great toy. You planning on getting the Wheeljack remold, or do you already have it?

It's funny because up until recently, Wheeljack was the one I wanted & hunted around for, but now it's the other way around. I might get Sky Shadow when he shows up in my area, but I think Tracks is good enough for me in regards to that mold. I think he looks better next to Jazz.

Also, you have no idea how hard I'm laughing at your "even if toys were involved" comment. I literally had to put down my food for that one haha.

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of his hood design. It's so busy, while the bot mode is so clean & well stood. Speaking of busy, this thread is really hurting my wallet, especially in terms of the non-TF stuff I'm starting to want...

Picked up Blue Lantern Flash today. Also, my Right Leg to bane came in the mail from felks22us

[LXL_Guy]

Picked up X-23 & 8'' Lion-O today from Wally World. MU fig was $5 and Lion-O was $8.40. Not too shabby at all considering I wasn't gonna pick up either but at that price....might as well bite this time.

Yup that's why I didn't get him when I saw him, his hood...

[Nomad]

You don't see it in robot mode though, and for the alt mode, you can always display him angled toward the back of your shelve. Plus, it's one of the few guys that I like the rubsign on, so even better.

[LXL_Guy]

It was YMMV. I hit up 3 Wal-Marts tonight. Only certain figures were on Clearance. At one store nothing was on Clearance...not even Pirates figures. At another store it was just 8 inch Thundercats/Captain America/Thor. At the last one...so many items. They had all the marvel toys on clearance which was just odd so that's why I bit on the X-23.

Being in a cult costs less that colecting BAF figures.

Over the last month I've seen ML BAF Giant Man go for $60-$65. The Holiday season def was the right time to pick him up while ebay is slow. Been tracking down CNC Giganta and she was leveling off at 70 but the last few I've seen have pushed past $80 and thaat's before shipping! One of these days I will find one at a reasonable price.

I love the post-Christmas sales. I end up buying a bunch of things I don't need (or really want sometimes), but it's fun when it's cheap.

I've probably only sold about 15 things on eBay so I don't know the trends, but I made out pretty well selling over the holidays. I had RoTF Leader Jetfire in my sales/trade thread here for weeks at $75-$70 shipped with no takers so I put it on eBay and sold it for $94 shipped.

Whats YMMV??

[Optimus Vader]

"your mileage may vary"

Translation: not every location, of whatever chain store, is running the same sales.

It took me a while to figure that one out.

[LXL_Guy]

Yeah...too many places end up being YMMV that I pretty much will use that a lot if I find something. Now to think if I want to look around else where to see if they've got any goods on sale today.

[trebleshot]

Also picked up Renegades Duke the other night. I was holding off on him and Renegades CC since they are so abundant, but I couldn't find the others (Scarlet, Storm Shadow, Ripcord and the Cobra trooper).

And he was very nice at passing out some of his handguns to Snake Eyes and Tunnel Rat. But no guns for Firefly, which didn't sit too well with the saboteur.

Have you seen his United counterpart? The hood design is almost dead-on to the original G1 toy's deco.

I LOVE the blue used for the United release. I don't know if it was mentioned already but, for those on the fence with RTS Tracks because of his tribal flames, there is always Reprolabels.
