Hahaha!!! You remember how my mini-con 10 pack came in the mail yesterday? Well today I was moving the shipping box it came in and I spotted something else in it- A seperatly packeged Transformers Universe Mini-con class Blight. I don't remember anything about ordering another TF, but Primus must be on my side!

Added my first Animated figure to my collection today with Blurr. He's pretty cool, and I do recommend him if you can find him. Just be warned: his instructions are terrible. You're better off using the instructions once and then figuring out your own way to transform him, or just using fan reviews as a guide.

Not that Walmart has crap in the way of Transformers right now. Let's see, in Animated, they had one Blurr (mine), one Sentinel Prime, one Ratchet, and one Bumper-Battlers Ratchet.

Shadow Blade Megs was gone, as were Blitzwing and Shockwave. I was disappointed at the lack of Shockwave.

But it was on sale for seven bucks. All told, I spent less than ten while I was there. Blurr and a Dr.Pepper.

Well, our Wal-Mart is now clean of Animated products aside from that Bumper Battlers Ratchet.

Deluxe Sentinel and Ratchet for seven bucks a piece is too awesome for me to resist. Sorry, TLA and Jazz, looks like you guys'll have to do without.

I also looked for a RotF Armorhide, but no luck.

I still have something a novice like you could never have, Arbilus. Unicron.

Oh, and I'll just order RotF Bludgeon, seeing as he's online at most retailers now. ;)

Yes, well, considering it's been over a month since you got yours now, I don't think they'll restock until either:

1. They finish moving everything around if they haven't already, or

2. They realize they've got a crapload of wayward transformers sitting in the back, waiting to be stocked.

My bet's on both. Yay for morons!

Just picked up TFU Leo Prime from Target over the weekend for $10.00. I also picked up a TF Alternator Tracks (complete except no box) which should be here by the end of week. Also picked up MP Skywarp for $20.00 besides that just waiting for ROTF Brawn and TFA Arcee. :wink:

I saw Leo at a local Target this weekend, but couldn't decide whether or not to buy him.

Would you say he's worth it?

Well, my mother didn't go to the grocery store yesterday like she normally does, so we had nothing to eat when I got home from school. So, I walked the two blocks to Wal-Mart, and, lo and behold, they had a Human Alliance Barricade. Emphasis on the had and the a.

Haven't opened him yet, though.

New acquisitions?

Recently i bought an Encore Jazz and have to say its amazing - its got me wanting the rest of the Encore collection (that i can find for reasonable prices).

Also just purchased a second-hand but virtually mint condition e-hobby exclusive Cobalt Sentry pack for well under half the price of a new one. Can't wait to get it in the post :-)

However i'm confused - i can get the commemorative reissue Transformers Skids for around 16.00 GBP or the Encore version for about 22.00-25.00 GBP. I want to collect the Encore editions as i love the boxes and quite frankly i think Takara do things better than their Hasbro counterparts - but theirs is currently cheaper. Though some of the Encores are cheaper than their commemorative counterparts.

I do already own a commemorative Optimus Prime from a few years back MIB (MISB when i got him 8) ) and am contemplating buying a commemorative MISB Starscream for a cheap enough price (compared to Encore) but i just wish the Encore version would be as cheap at the moment as the commemorative one :evil:

I could always buy both... cheap one now and the Encore one at a later date - but i see that as needless over-spending?? What do you think?


Edit: I also have in transit to me the Encore twinpack of Thundercracker and Skywarp
