Target clearance action, Retaliation Hiss Tank for $9.98!!! Wish they had more at that price. I hope they are making room for the new Joe stuff!!!

salsa4datass · 07-25-2013, 07:06 PM

For those who know me from the other boards I am a Thrift Store shopper. And with 4 different stores in town plus many around town, I usually find good stuff. This is the first time I post any gets/hauls on here so here we go...
Picked these up yesterday for $6.33!!!...

Picked these up at $11.59 today!!! Love me some Transformers!!!...

LXL_Guy · 07-25-2013, 08:03 PM

Today was a good day. Out of the blue I finally found Transformers Prime 'Airachnid'.

tsweet · 07-25-2013, 10:46 PM

My neice finally brought my deadpool pack and thunderbolt pack she got for me at comiccon. I found a sandstorm at Wally World today. Should have bought 2 instead of one.

I picked one of these up also on clearance for the same price a few weeks back at my local Target. Been looking for the Ghost Hawk though, sadly to no avail.

Do yourself a favor. While the CC figure included has a pretty nice sculpt, it's a terrible figure. Find yourself a "Rex Lewis" figure from the first movie's line, and then do a head swap along with a dash of black paint on the helmet. Walla! Instant (not to mention much more accurate...) Retaliation CC!

trebleshot · 07-26-2013, 07:06 AM

My Target had those Retaliation vehicles for $8.98 last week and picked up a HISS for myself (how could I pass that deal up?). It's a lot bigger than I thought it'd be, based on the size of the box. But I agree with Trivial that the CC figure is crap, except for the head sculpt.

And on to my birthday haul, which consists of all the stuff I bought with the cash given to me:

Snagged a TFP Weaponizer (read: leader class) Bumblebee on clearance for $16.08 and six out of the remaining seven Series 2 Kreons I was missing while I was the same Target I mentioned above. Unfortunately, the only one left that I still need to pick up is Arcee and I fear she will be just as hard for me to get as Bludgeon was during Series 1.

At Walmart I was able to pick up the last two FOC Wreckers I needed to complete Ruination. He looks decent standing next to FOC Bruticus and the alternate limbs + new colors + new combiner head really make Ruination stand out against Bruticus. I also really like the additional weaponry that the Wreckers get and that each one is designed to incorporate its owner's original weapon (some better than others).

And finally, off Amazon I picked up the Jaguar ("Ravage") 4 GB USB drive and my first S.H. Figuart: Shinken Red of Samurai Sentai Shinkenger (i.e. Red Ranger from Power Rangers Samurai).

I'll see if I can snap a couple pics when I get home. I dug out the Combaticons from the back of the shelf after I got Roadbuster and Whirl, so I can get pics of both Bruticus and Ruination.

Another bonus is I know what the Scramble City limb modes for all four molds are officially supposed to look like now. I can even pull off some Energon combiner homages by mixing Bots and Cons.

Sounds interesting, I may do that!!! Thanks!!!

It may not be his best armor(obviously) in regards to physical altercations, but it is one aesthetically pleasing for me!

That's an awesome price considering it's 90 without shipping, was it a auction bid?

Saw the Quicksilver Wonderman 2 pack about a year ago and passed, finally saw them again the other day out of town for a friends wedding. Reminds me of that avengers arcade game with Quicksilver running around with that health pack, great game. Also had to put Power Man and Iron Fist out of their misery, I need a Luke Cage. I bought the Quicksilver/Wonderman pack and found it cheaper somewhere else but didn't have a chance to return it, so if anyone needs one lemme know.

DarthGzus33 · 07-27-2013, 05:33 PM

So far 2 Big Lots, no MOTU...Still walked away with a TF Prime Dead End for $8. Found the new Mission Series SW figs at Target in Hanover, PA. The only one I wanted from these was the Vader, since it reminds me of the original Kenner one...I took a pic of the others that they had for reference. Pretty bad looking though and IM3 articulation obliviously...
