Nice haul! Especially finding 3 Vehicons in the wild like that. I'm wondering if the revision cases are starting to hit?

Ah, ok. :wink: Should have read that more closely. I see they have some Junkheaps online for a decent price. But nothing about a bogo sale. Must be in store only?

Just picked up WFC Generations Autobot Jazz.

Really like him, despite his (wait for it) shortcomings. Actually, the smaller scale deluxes don't bother me. I would love to do a head swap on this Jazz and the RTS Spec Ops Jazz, but unfortunately the ball joints are different for the two.

Since its been forever that i've been on here, I have too many to list. My number one item that ive bought recently though would be the reissue of the dino cassettes Dial and Zaur. They are really nice for KOs.

I thought about picking up Dial and Zaur a while ago. Just never bit the bullet.

Will you post a pic or two when convenient of the Wheelie.

--EDIT--
I heard that some of our TRU picked him up. How is that possible since he is an Asia Exclusive? Did I hear wrong?
--EDIT--


I was tempted to order him, but I wasn't sure if he was worth it.

I recently obtained:

Kre-O Scorp
Kre-O Spinister
The two Kre-O four figure sets (TRU B1G1, 10.99)
MP Thundercracker


I must comment that the plastic on the two Micro changers I bought is terrible. Just putting them together caused tons of wear.

However, due to cuteness, I would have finished my set of them had they not been sold out the day I hit the B1G1 sale.

Nice finds! I love how a lot of the Kreo figures have a G1 likeness to them. And, when I was younger in the 80s I had a Lego addiction. I just don't know what I would do with them if I bought them.

Still though, kinda jealous. Nice find with the Kreos! (We won't even talk about how jealous I am of the MP Thundercracker)

Made a band for Wheelie's sling shot out of those annoying ties inside the packaging.

He looks great! Man I wouldn't mind having one of him (I'm a sucker for ANY G1 character in the classics universe).

The usual question... How much was he? I heard some sites were selling it for $15 +/-. But, all I can find him for is about $32ish.

Looks good, might have to break down and get him too. Picked up Mp Thundercracker. Like the way he looks and not as flimsy as the others. Wifey picked me up TF Prime Rumble last night. He looks sweeet!! Anyone knows what happened to TFW2005? Has warning flags and I'm not going to risk my computer trying to get into the site. Everyone have a good weekend.

Nice finds everyone! :)

@ F18Starscream - I just went to TFW2005 and I don't see anything wrong. Maybe they fixed whatever was going on, or perhaps it's a case of DNS redirection/poisoning?

Congrats on the Thundercracker (and the Wifey who goes and gets you TFs, lol)

And, I have the same error coming up when I visit them, although I haven't yet tried this morning.

I'm thinking about dropping $32'ish on iGear's Hench (Classics Brawn). He scales well with Classics Bumblebee, Cliffjumper and Windcharger. Gotta' have me a Classics Brawn. iGears UFO (Classics Cosmos) is out right now too, but something about him and the color scheme they chose just doesn't resonate with me.

That's awesome your wife picks you up Tf'ers! 8) Mine has only done that once but she did find RTS Jazz for me. For that I am forever grateful. :lol: And I've been getting the same red flags from TFW2005. I just ignore them and go there anyways. It's catching red flags from both Google Chrome and Firefox but I have pretty good anti-virus and nothing's attacked my PC yet.

TFW is aware of the malware issue and they're working with Google to fix it. I bypassed the warning with no ill effects.
