Also on the peg were two Starscreams, a Vehicon, 3 or 4 Bees, and even a non zombie Cliffjumper...shame that I picked him up on Ebay a few months back. No Arcees, or deluxe Primes or Megatrons, although, already having the voyager versions of these, I had no real need for those even if they were there. It's been a while since these have been on the shelf though, I wonder if there will be more in the near future as I'm sure Hasbro is trying to get rid of it's leftover Prime stock now that the series is officially over.

While I love my RID Dark Energon Bumblebee, this quickly became my favorite version of him, even though I felt the the RID versions are way easier and more fun to transform, not to mention in better scale. But this guy looks like a scrapper!

Now now...uh...Bumblebee, I'd like you to meet..uhm....Bum....ble....bug?

That's an awesome find, where are you at? I know the feeling I actually picked up most of the FE's off inflated Ebay prices during the announcement that the line was getting cancelled was way pissed when the following holidays they brought majority of them all out to sell!!

I picked up the Mummy and Brute ones as I haven't had the Mummy in years and never knew about Brute. I also like the retro boxes GM has been using on all of their cereals. Now if they would only bring back Big Mixx, Marshmallow Krispies, and the Soggy Bros and the evil robot to Cap'n Crunch.

My nearest Walmart is now scattering their TMNT all over the place. The Rat King wave was at electronics, the stealth turtles were in the toy aisle, and the baby turtles (Leo/Don) and Spider Bytes were in a standalone display around the corner from toys.

They must have been picked clean of Mousers. Is the new Shredder from this wave too? I notice he's on the back of the packaging...

salsa4datass · 10-04-2013, 10:49 AM

^nice find! the new shredder is in that wave. I have yet to see it out here in ct...

Some great hauls everyone!

Picked up these guys today;

Goldengreg · 10-04-2013, 03:42 PM

Saturday at least, I can take pics of my haul!

First, a nice package from Square-Enix containing Green Lantern and Wonder Woman PAK

Next, my package from Amazon consisting in an order of a Crimson Hydra... but I received this copter instead... twice! It seems that the Barcode is false, therefore the chopper is considered a Crimson Hydra by Amazon.fr Well, I'll keep it...

And then, I found this nice 1/18 scale bike in the add-on items programs, and bought it for a future display.

Exodus · 10-04-2013, 04:28 PM

A buddy of mine help me get these 2 at Target, glad I don't have to hunt for these.

DarthGzus33 · 10-04-2013, 07:20 PM

Picked up the new Shredder, I still think he is lacking articulation, I haven't opened him up yet. Either way he is Bad A$$!!! I have been finding the new 2014 Hot Wheels too, picked up some of those this week (no pics though) Found him in the Walkersville, MD WalMart near Frederick...(FYI, don't EVER go to the Rt. 85 Frederick WalMart, they absolutely NEVER get anything!!!)

Thanks Exodus...I live down in southern Arizona. Some of the stuff I've been finding on the shelf at my local TRU's has been somewhat strange...as of late it's been a lot of older, harder to find items (I found a TF:P Skyquake at TRU about 2 months ago...) while rarely ever coming across any of the newer things hitting the shelves (To this day, I've only seen one peg of new Thor or Avenger figures even hit the shelves, and as for Marvel Legends, Universe, Kreo or G.I.Joes? Forget it...) Distribution is pretty sad.

Speaking of pretty sad...stopped by my local TRU tonight on the way home from work to pick up my layaway (which I'll post later) and found that same series of First Edition figures badly pilfered and literally strung all over the aisle (and floor) in various places. It looked like there was a battle in the aisle over that Vehicon and Cliffjumper I saw last night. Hopefully they're finding a good home to wage war against one another, and not ending up on Ebay as we speak...=(

jgaroptimus · 10-04-2013, 08:58 PM

Outside of occasionally running into them at a specialty store, I STILL have yet to find any Marvel Legends figures from ANY LINE outside Drax, Klaw and Hope Summers, and I get out to the stores A LOT. It seems I would have a better chance of discovering a new species of dinosaur...

Why is Dagger named Marvel Knights?

Not sure actually, but Cloak also has Marvel Knights on his as well.

Phantomcrow · 10-05-2013, 10:14 AM

It is the same thing they do on Marvel Legends so they can save on packaging and reuse the artwork. Blade/Punisher were labeled Marvel Knights, Madame Masque and Madam Hydra we just labeled as Marvel's Madames, the Wrecking Crew members were the same way. Mystique and Moonstar were labeled as X-Mutants. Hyperion and Sentry were labeled as Conquering Heroes. It somehow saves in production cost but not in any way to the consumer.

behindthemask · 10-05-2013, 12:17 PM

I have a series 7 ML Hawkeye in package, I'll trade for FF doom and deadpool. if someone gets an extra. and cash.
