Do Boy · 09-19-2011, 05:48 PM

No I haven't gotten a chance to take him out yet. What issue?

Went to Helena (about an hour and a half away from where I live) on a little "hunt", not really expecting to find anything. But lo and behold I was VERY pleasantly surprised. ;D

Helena Thrift Store Haul

Perfect for a MU/GI Joe Dio!

Helena Wal-mart Haul:

Helena Target Haul:
FINALLY Got my hands on a Tasky' Vs. DP set!!!

Helena Ross/ K-mart Haul:

Iron Grenadier is from K-MART and Optimus is from Ross.

Good stuff, Mastersteef. That Laser Prime is going to come in handy pretty soon if you're a TF 3rd party fan.

Why is that Vader? Also, I saw "Terradive" and "Tomahawk" at my local Ross, are they worth picking up? (kinda want terradive just for the awesome spear he comes with)

Check this out.

I skipped Terradive and Tomahawk myself, but I always thought Terradive looked cool with those reverse wings.

ersico · 09-20-2011, 10:07 AM

i like tomohawk and terradive, tomahawk more..more human face with visor and the black is nice and clean and shiny

Have you heard if they're going to do a RiD Scourge version? I'm hoping Hasbro at least does a redeco of G2 Prime and calls him Scourge.

Tomahawk and Terradive are both good molds, but I think Terradive is the better of the two, mold-wise. Very clean jet mode and extremely posable robot mode. He can also hold the spear with both hands.

Plus, he was the base of the really cool remold (and Target exclusive) Space Case, another G2 character.

SO AWESOME Vader, thanks for giving me the heads up on that!

I don't really collect transformers at all (my collection is pretty much Cybertronian Megatron and Optimus, and now Laser Optimus) but something that cool would be a crime to just "pass up", so I will definitely be snagging that. lol

I hope so. I don't know much about MakeToys, but if they're somehow in cahoots with FansProject; I'm expecting big things! And I really hope they nail it, because I think I'm all over that Devastator they have coming out (depends on price of course--not into Hercules).

I'd imagine a Laser Prime repaint into Scourge is inevitable... sure does seem like an easy decision for Hasbro if you ask me.

Like everyone else has said, both are good molds, worth the pick up. However for you not being into them (TFs) as much, I would rather recommend some Generations instead (Wheeljack, Warpath etc.) Nice score with G2 Prime, he's a fun toy!

miketime · 09-20-2011, 02:37 PM

Just arrived in the mail today. I still don't know how I feel about Leech. They could have done a better job on his head and hands. My girlfriend takes one look at it and asks: Why does he have a vagina for a mouth?

Where else is He Man supposed to put his sword?

trebleshot · 09-21-2011, 08:32 AM

Finally found Destroyer today, but also found Panthro for the first time too and only had enough money for one. Went with Panthro, since he's the last one I need to complete the team.

Hopefully, I'll still be able to score a Destroyer later in the week. Oh and pics of Panthro coming soon.

I hope you hid that Destroyer. lol Tough choice. Those T-Cats figs are flying off the shelf for all scales, Mumra is clearly 2 or three per case as it is the only fig I see.

So yesterday at CVS I found these guys on the clearance rack and got each of them for $2.87! WOOT

Found these awesome mechs at Ross yesterday for $7.99 each, still trying to decide whether to keep or trade them...

SO happy to find these little guys finally, didn't know a concrete release date so I was happily surprised to find them at Target.

was the lego gladiator in a set and how much was he,I have been looking for that figure.

omega145 · 09-21-2011, 04:47 PM

Nice cheap scores there Mastersteef. I dont think you'd get much in trade or to sell on those mechs. They are pretty available at any Ross or Marshalls for 8 bucks and arent that popular.

Yea I've seen plenty around my area as well but they didn't do anything for me......does anyone else own them?? Are they worth it?
