Uh-huh, too bad I had to drop an outrageous $90+ for him at BBTS. A core character like this shouldn't have to be strung up as an web exclusive like this. Really hope Machinedramon doesn't meet the same fate. I'd easily be all set if the line died after he was made. Of course I'd never really want that to happen, lol. :)

Yeah, what's up with that? I saw an Acid Storm just hanging out on some counter at my TRU when I was picking up my own Acid Storm from the back with In-Store Pickup. No shelf tags, no nothin' in the TF aisle or anywhere else for that matter.:confused:

Awesome!!!!!!!!

I am eagerly awaiting some of these coming in the mail ;)

Acid Storm's price was about $79.99 USD, roughly the same price I paid for Masterpiece Thundercracker about a year ago during the holiday season. While I really wish that Hasbro would give us a discount considering this is merely another redeco of the seeker mold, the fact that they even bothered making Acid Storm in the first place justified the price for me, especially since it's the "skirtless" mold with the newer head design..


The Transformers aisle at my TRU is pretty terrible. It's almost always empty, Bot Shot figures are spread out over nine or ten pegs with one or two on each peg, and there are actually more figures from Dark Of The Moon than there are from any of the other lines, including voyager and deluxes. I found him stowed away on a shelf behind the counter with smart tablets in the electronic's section. My guess is that since he's an SDCC exclusive and is obviously highly valued (the employee there told me they were only allowed to sell one figure per customer per transaction) that's why they're keeping him there. The somewhat aggravating (but at the same time...lucky) thing about it; had I never needed an employee to unlock the cheapy 10 dollar headphones I was purchasing from the peg, I would have went about my shopping day and never even seen him displayed there in the first place. I guess the Transformers gods up there in robot heaven were smiling upon me today.

didn't buy anything, but i just went grocery shopping at walmart and noticed they have their big ass clearance tables out near the toy section! saw the Lego Mil. Falcon on clearance for $130 i think it was! Not sure how much clearance that is, but also saw the Lego Monster Fighters Ghost Train for around $80! idk what it was originally, but i guess thats a clearance! heh anyways, of course stores will vary and such, but yea! just a heads up is all ;)

ummm, those are not clearance prices. walmart is the only company I know that thinks if you just put a clearance sticker on it at normal price, people will buy it...

heh yea they did seem a lil' high priced for a clearance like that! :p

Nice Joes. I am looking for DG 2.0, too.
okay, is this related to Tomica Hero Rescue Force, the Tokusatsu Japanese Live-action show?
Tomica Hypercity Rescue Storm Runner...very cool

got these two guys last week. stumbled upon them in my local comic book shop, i didn't expect them to stock these two. now i can't wait to get blue, black, pink, yellow, and white. they're going to look fantastic together.

picked him up two weeks ago.. i absolutely love him. his robot mode is so bad ass looking. it's a great non combiner update of predaking.

two complaints though.. i really HATE the neck/head light up gimmick. it's stupid, it's pointless, and it really hinders his alt mode. luckily i found a way to display him without having to press the lever. but still.. it'd be nice if his head and neck joints were ball joints and articulated like in the show.. same goes for the tail, i wish it was articulated.. which leads me to my second complaint.. $60 is about $30 too much for this. for $60 the neck and tail should have multiple ball joints, they could've worked the light up gimmick into the chest instead of the head. (which would make an articulated neck possible) and his wings should be more articulated so that they can be posed better in his dragon mode and so they could fold up like they do in the show.. he's very simplistic for being a $60 toy.. hell, rotf leader prime is taller, a lot more complex, has lights and sounds, and is only $40. predaking is just lucky he's got such an awesome looking robot mode.

Today's latest from US ebay:

forgot to mention...yesterday while at Walmart, I also saw a 31" Darth Vader figure!! anyone else seen that yet?

Hey everyone, sorry I haven't been around much lately but things have just been very hectic.

Anyway, I finally had a little time to go hunting and ran across a very small offering of Star Wars Black Series items like ships and a few 3.75" figures at Target but no luck finding 6" figures. I picked up Biggs Darklighter since I never got a figure of him before.

Went looking for Trailcutter again today with no luck, but instead picked up the Halo Mega Bloks Exo Booster Frame build a vehicle kits!!!

LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!
KMart was decently priced on them too, only 10.99 each instead of the 14.99 of local Toys R Us stores. Today was so much win.

Heh, thanks Provost!

Oh, and I highly recommend that Starscream. Great little figure and a fun transformation. They even mention "Possession" on the back of the packaging :)

yeah those are full retail prices on those sets. Wal-marts around me clearanced out the Ghost Train a few months back. I got it for $54 I think.

Yeah it's so weird. I saw some LEGO sets on "clearance" at Walmart over the weekend. It had a red clearance sticker that said was $19.99, now $19.99. Sadly it's not the first time I saw Walmart do something like that.


I just saw it at TRU. It's an impressive looking fig but I have no idea what I would do with it.

Thanks to the kindness of my fellow Arkers and a friend living half in NY half in Japan, my MU collection growed quickly!

Quick question: the high price on Ebay should be a hint enough, but I'm asking anyway: is the Joe Colton (Bruce Willis GI Joe) still available in some places like Toysrus? Do you think my friend in NY who is not very aware of toys stuff could find me one without going on an extensive hunt?

It seems the educational system is lacking funds. Growed is not a word. The word "grew" is what you're looking for.
