The "Look At What I Just Got!" Thread

No pics, but yesterday I was able to pick up all of Series 3 Transformers Micro-changers and a Construct-Bots Soundwave to boot. Might be the last thing I get for a while (moving soon and need to save up).

He's a little over 9" tall .. so he's to scale with the current masterpiece transformers .. and the extra pieces are upgrades (kit) .. it came with it . basically its a solid hand and gun tip .. the one it comes with is see through purple ... I still haven't opened it I'll post some pics when I do

Got Kre-O microchange Perceptor and 2 Arcees today!
Also found out trailcutter is hitting shelves locally! So will need to keep my eyes open for him. Sadly still no luck on Nova or the Blackbolt 3 pack though(saw the 3 pack once, didn't buy it, haven't seen it since). T_T

Had a couple of unexpected finds out in the wild today - I wasn't even searching for anything! Tagged along with my parents to Super Kmart and ended up finding Rat King, Roach Terminator and the new Ninja Donnie and Mikey. I left the turtles for now but I picked up the villains.

The most surprising find of all, though, was the AT-3. I didn't even think it was coming out for another couple of months! I wouldn't have even seen it if my mom wasn't a Hot Wheels collector - these were mixed in with them and the R/C cars, an aisle or two away from the action figures.

Had a hard time buying them too, 'cause wouldn't you know it, Kmart's registers all went down at the exact same time so pretty much every customer in the store ended up in major traffic jams at the checkouts. We had to wait about 40 minutes before we could get out of there!

This was given out to all attendees at Sonic Boom this past Saturday.

I'll have to get a much better shot later. And unboxed.

I'd go ahead and quote Eiffel 65 here, but I figure that's stuck in everyone's brain as it is and does not need to be repeated. But yeah, I got ya. I just have an inclination towards blue. Still root for the Cards whenever the subject comes up though, don't doubt that.

I highly doubt we'll ever see the day that hasbro purchases the rights to a 3rd party product.. Especially when it infringes on their IP.

If you're talking about soundwave, they are bringing him over.

trebleshot · 08-13-2013, 12:07 PM

I think he meant Takara doing their own MP Shockwave, but similar to Quakewave.

(I know he already owns the TRU MP Soundwave

)

Dr Kain · 08-13-2013, 12:22 PM

I have a massive amount of pics, so I'll post a few and leave the link to the slide show:

Yes, spot on

I'm actually going to sell off my Generations deluxes too just to make room for the Takara MP's that are coming out soon...

It's all good.
I just wanted to out myself as a fellow of the county.

... I probably should have chosen a better wording for that.

Ninjinister · 08-13-2013, 03:02 PM

Had a coupon for 15% off everything at TRU. Got some nice stuff I've been looking for. Sadly even though I bought out their whole stock of Pac-Man blind bags I didn't get a single Pac.

Hah, no worries. I'm actually from the outskirts of the IL side of the Metro, but I spent as much time in the city and on the Metrolink as anywhere.

Phantomcrow · 08-13-2013, 04:23 PM

Got my order from Matty SDCC early Access.
Made it through the mess of that morning.

Also had my BBTS order show up the same day

I am so torn on the Green Ranger. He looks great, but I might just turn around and sell him. Not sure if I need to get something that goes with nothing else I collect. Buuuuuuttt he is reeeeealy nifty :-?

And if anyone need to have a chat about adding articulation, TALK TO MEZCO!!! I wish I could put Walt's head on a good body for the Breaking Bad figure.
