He's equally as hard to transform as his twin, Mudflap. I've spent too much money lately, lol..

HA Bumblebee - $30
Deluxe Skids + Mudflap - $20
Classics Silverbolt - $14


F.E.A.R 2 : Project Origin for PS3: $20 - That was a deal I could not pass up. On sale at Gamestop - used copy was like $35, everywhere else has it for $40. I preordered the $99 God of War III Ultimate edition too.. $10. I have until March 2010 to lower that balance. I hope to have it completly payed off before then - Xmas is coming, and with the Xmas season comes 40 hrs a week and overtime. I can afford to put $10-20 towards it every payday. I also will be spending another $40 on the God Of War Collection later this month. :x

I also have to buy 2 snow tires for the car, which is another $200... I have already saved $100 last month, and I will save another $100 this month hopefully. It hasn't started snowing yet...

I ordered the TRU exclusive Perceptor the other day. It shipped this morning so I'm hoping to have it by Friday.

Of the past 2 weeks, I've picked up the red and yellow Skyboom shield minicon teams (1 thanks to our very own LD 2062), the Star Saber team, and a couple of 'ultimate Energon weapons' from the Energon line.

My Perceptor came in today! Loving him. Never had him as a kid so I'm quite excited. Too bad about the springless launcher though.

Congrats to your purchase Catalyst Prime. :)
Is the launcher different from the original, other than the missing spring? Can you put one in it?

Already have, the spring I put in it gives it enough impact force to knock down my G1 Soundwave and Classics Voyager Optimus Prime. When I started working on it I realized that the launching tab wasn't just stuck... It was glued in place! I actually kinda broke the tab trying to pry it free but was a simple fix with some model cement.

Oh man I'M HAPPY!!!!!!!! I just received a huge surprise in the mail today. About a week ago, I won this auction for a beat up looking Classics Ramjet for $7.00 USD plus $4 shipping. Well, as it turns out, the seller messaged me telling me that she had made a mistake in the listing, and that she had already sold that Ramjet, and that she could work something else out with me, or just refund me my money.

Anyway, she said she was going to list some more "Jets" and that she could send me one of those. I asked her which jets she was about to list and she didnt know their names, but she told me the colors. She told me there was a blue one and a green one, and a grey one. I TOLD HER I WANTED THE BLUE ONE, and i told her i wanted to buy the grey one off her too! Ive never heard of a grey seeker jet, so i told her ide PayPal her an additional $15, and she agreed!

Well heres what i just got in the mail today from her for a grand total of $26.00 USD, SHIPPED. BOTH HENKEI :D

The City Commander add-on kit I ordered from BBTS shipped yesterday. Looking forward to that.

I found this little Optimus Prime candy dispenser today. thought it was cute.

Trying to decide what Rotf figure I want to get next... I still need to get the fallen, leader Prime, and Demolisher. but I also want Gears, and well just about every other figure from Scout to Voyager class that isn't a pointless repaint or in the first movie.
