Nice catches all around! Where did you find the Legion transformers, if I may ask? I haven't seen them in the area yet. I would love to get them. I plan on putting mine with the cw Devy. I know its out of scale, but it makes him look so huge!

I found them in the oddest place..... Family Dollar! They were around $6 and some change. I figure that is pretty good considering I just looked the same figures up on Ebay a few minutes ago and they are going for $12-$25. I figure people are buying them up at stores and then jacking up the price on Ebay. Just a guess though.

Just got my SDCC version as well. Not open yet either LOL. Looks nice, but, kinda questioning my purchase now. Might sell it off while the iron is still moderately hot.

Looks great RB! So, I'll ask you and anyone else who has him, THOUGHTS ON KRONOS??? Is he worth it, or should I hold out for something better? I've heard horror stories.

To show my support for Hulk Hogan, I grabbed these today. Hulkamania is about to run wild all over the Big Show.

Yeah, Hulk's life isn't doing to well lately. I was at this years Wrestlemania and dressed up as him. It was a blast, especially when he came out with the N.W.O! 4 life, brother!

It's a "hit-or-miss" experience from what I've read. Luckily, mine came with good ratcheting joints, good paint and minimal QC problems. If you don't mind the partsforming backpack, then I say go ahead and pick one up. Just do it from a retailer that'll exchange it in case you do get one with issues. As far as who he represents & scale purposes, you can't ask for anything better.

Came across a Transformers Universe Hardhead (2008), at a local yard sale for only $1. Maybe one day I will look for the Hothead upgrade to make him a Headmaster (By Headrobots).

Grabbed a Shawn Michaels and Undertaker Battle Pack today. I also found another treasure for myself as I am a big fan of the cartoon, Star Wars Rebels. This six pack was damn near $40 when I first turned it down, but on clearance for $19.98 I could not pass it up. Sure their poseability is limited but they look just like the toon and I like their size. Besides where else can you get six large figures for $19.98?

Had this come in a few weeks ago. MakeToys Visualizers set. Highly recommend! Sorry about the crowding (lighting, exc) in the cabinet shots.
