RB, if you don't mind my asking, how much did you pay for Triggerhappy? I'm looking to replace the bot on mine, he's discolored. I suspect buying a complete and keeping the better fig will be the way to go.

PM sent.

Got this a few days back. A 100% complete RID Scourge (Nemesis Convoy). Simply awesome figure in both modes! Comes highly recommended and complements G1 Prime perfectly.

I found this in a garage sale today. I'm not sure exactly what it is. It looks like one of the mini backpacks. The tag inside says transformers animated. its about 8 x 8 inches.

I actually scored a nice G1 lot at a yard sale not too long ago...had Prime, Swoop, Devastator, Thrust, Bombshell, Powerglide, exc....for $10. Already had all those figures but kept Swoops sword as I needed that. Put everything on Feebay and made a hell of a profit. Wish I could run across a few more of those. :)

Nice haul PD!

I finally caved and bought Generations Thrust today. Yeah, I know he was in wave #1 but around here....wave #1 is still on the pegs, you just have to know where to look. :wink: Look for a lot of Classics and Universe figures to be bought by yours truly in the next few months to come. I'll be backtracking and purchasing all of the ones I missed out on (nearly all as I was hoarding G1's) and paying 4-5x's what I could have gotten them for retail. :x Lesson learned...

Image

I also got these guys in the mail today as well....G1 Gnaw (100%) and G1 Apeface (100%). Apeface was the last '87 headmaster I needed. :)

I might have to see about picking up a copy of that book, Skywarp. Great find! As for me, these FINALLY came in the mail today! Generations Wheeljack and Thundercracker. Original order placed: April 17th. HTS had them on their website as "in stock" back then. Final arrival date: June 24th. I think I'll be going through BBTS whenever possible from here on out.....even if it does cost me a few extra bucks. :roll:

I'm so jealous. Jackie's mold is already awesome as Tracks, but the paintscheme on Wheeljack... Not to mention TC happens to be my favorite Decepticon.

I'm also really becoming a fan of some of the classic Season 1 character, Wheeljack included.

GAH I want that toy.

But anyway... I ordered the 2004(3?) Transformers video game. The Armada-based one. The only TF game that compares (which incidentally actually surpasses it) is WfC.

It's been a while since I've played Armada...(dusts off games)...the WFC sequel is what I'm eagerly awaiting. I'm praying they take the same approach Transformers Tataki did with the G1 alt. modes.

Same here. Someone on TFW made a thread about it, and it's been so long that I just couldn't resist. But I also can hardly wait for WfC 2.

And Computron, is Wreck-Gar really that cheap now? I remember that it wasn't that long ago that he was going for $40+ easily.

Well that deal was at TJ Max, not a normal place to buy TFs, there were like 5 there for that price. They also had / reveal the shield voyage lugnuts for $10 each. Deluxe class preceptor and BB for $7 each. Crazy prices there.
