I'll keep that in mind Minerva ;)

@ Roadbuster: The set sold for $125. I know... way too much (ok that might just be my opinion). I am going to sell off the rest of the set for $80. I just really wanted the Scrapheap figure.

I fail at buying TFs...I think my last purchase was Generations Soundwave.

I keep checking whenever I go to Target/Wal-Mart for a Kup, but I haven't seen one. Ever.

Last time I went to Target they had over 9,000 Special Ops Jazzes, but I forgot my wallet that day :(

I could pick you one up. PM me if interested. Wouldn't be the same as finding one in the store yourself, though, I understand. I can't find Wheeljack or Thundercracker myself...have both on "backorder" from HTS but if I find one locally I'm cancelling that order...because after you pay shipping (from anywhere) you're still spending $20 on a deluxe. Which is too much.

Recieved this thrid party figures set. PE-11 Scouting force. b(aka Reflector)

These figures in my opinion are worth evey cent! The parts that are detachable are not wasted space. They double as storage for the weapons. Even the tripod is one of the figures weapons. The len section stores all three laser rifles. Even the figures themselves can store their knives on their bodies. As you will see for size comparison, they are abit smaller than my original reflector figures. VERY COOL! Highly Recommend!

I've been watching those online.
I wanted to know what the scale was. Thanks to you, I know now.

Very impressive figures.
Very geneously designed also.

I actually just got myself an original Reflector not too long ago. I wish the show would have done more with them as unique characters (Spectro, Viewfinder, and Spyglass) rather than generic decepticlones.

I do like the mini-tripod accessory!

I had no idea they were so small compared to a G1 Reflector, but they are very cool looking indeed! Nice purchase. :)

I went back to the flea market again this week and the guy I buy from had a G2 Grimlock, G1 Powerglide and Seacon Overbite. I got them all for $30. He also threw in a Transformers book called Dinobots strike back.

Had three more Headmasters arrive today. All 100% complete with the only issue being one of Snapdragons wings has a broken off missile...but even that's easily replaceable. Just glad it wasn't a tailfin. Today I got: G1 Snapdragon w/Krunk, G1 Hardhead w/Duros and G1 Highbrow w/Gort. All that's left now is for me to get an Apeface to complete the '87 HM lineup.

Yeah, I know...I know....I forgot to extend Highbrows wings before I took this picture.

Group shot: The amazing thing is that all of these were purchased within the last 3-4 weeks too. I really got lucky and fell into some great deals on these. Most were purchased in "complete multiple lots".
Image

Also got 2 RTS Scout Class Windchargers in the mail today with a couple minibots (Pipes/Outback) threw in as "extras." These are damn near IMPOSSIBLE to find here in the US. Also, the poses on each are different too. One has Windcharger with his head tilted up as if he was looking into the sky and the other has his head tilted slightly to the left as if he had caught something moving out of his peripheral vision. Thanks goes out to my good buddy, Dirge for getting these over here to me! :D

Snapdragon has been on my Wanted list for a long time. You got a good deal on him.

Nice finds, Roadbuster! :)

Nice Windys! I'm guessing the packing variation comes from the fact that things aren't as snug as they used to be, since the switched to the "china twine" as I call it. More tolerance for slapping the figure in whichever way :P
