No, it started with you trying to convince the thread that a toy with 5mm pegs as big as her head was the size of a deluxe.

Already checked, and now just need a box. Done shopping due to a find I made just tonight because the person I was supposed to give a ride to got a ride from someone else (Which also saved my SS reciever from getting about $10 in a My Little Pony/hygiene products fake out when I sent him my personal figure).

Also now that Taint reaper was given my name and I'm probably getting a turd in a box or something (when put in the ground it transforms a seed into a flower, totally fits). Who is doing a video unboxing Vs a picture unboxing, might help those of us who want to be fancy with the packing. I'm going to try to borrow a vid cam to do an unboxing, but might be stuck on a 3ds with post-production commentary, or just a a few pics if things go south.

I remember seeing an add-on kit for MP Prowl, better shoulder cannons, is that a thing?

Also do any of the 3P companies do holiday sales? I still sort of want the Not-Stunticons but $400 is still really salty.

gently caress! Right as I went to order, they sold out online. Luckily I was able to order it at a relatively nearby store(about a 20 mile drive), but still, would've been nice to get the free shipping too! Thanks for the notice!

edit: gently caress, they cancelled the order. God drat it! And now the price is back to normal. Fuckers

Yeah those shoulder cannons exist. There's a few of them, and I never learned which were quality. Dr. Wu probably made some.

I don't know if the 3Parties themselves had sales, but BBTS and TFSource did. I didn't see anything that great though--definitely not any Fansproject stuff. I don't think they really need to put their stuff on sale too often.

Really, it's $37 when I just loaded the page, but for in-store pickup only. Maybe try again?

Sirtoys has the Japanese Amazon preorder shoulder cannons for Prowl/Bluestreak for about three dollars per unit.

I got one (could have sworn I ordered two, but the invoice only said one and that's what I was charged for) for Prowl and it's exactly the same as the cannons that came standard with my Silverstreak.

I see that HTS is kicking me in the balls, every day is a better deal. Today is 20% off.

It looks like it will work on the Platinum sets if you were on the fence about having two kinda crappy leader figures with more chrome, or you want that premium painted set of "Autobots United"

The Autobots United set is really tempting. The Dinobots too but it's a shame it doesn't include Snarl.

The difference between confinement and rest is a shift in perspective

Because like no loving Transformers came out and stores weren't stocking them in as large numbers due to the massive amount of shelfwarming previous years have done, therefore less poo poo gets clearanced out.

Of course it says MP Prowl is in stock but you can't actually add it to your cart.

If anyone is able to and get an extra one, please let me buy it off you.

I just dropped $30 on an original, I'd have accepted goofy chrome as the price to pay for having both of those.

I found that comic. It'll be $2.86 to ship to you based on the USPS calculator. If you want to make it an even $3, that would be nice, but up to you. Paypal/Google Wallet me at bmoore1981 at gmail with a shipping address (preferably Paypal, but either works).

I just got MP Bumblebee in. I'm debating if I should wait until Xmas to open him (oh god).

Also the 3rd party Fall of Cybertron Onslaught dropped into my POL and yeah, it's also still processing. I think this is the first time I've ever seen a turd get polished to such a successful degree. If the quality holds out it will be an amazing FOC Bruticus from all the photos I've seen.

Hey, I see a lot of you guys picking up really neat KOs and I know it's probably been posted elsewhere, but where do you find them? Just ebay, or a specific seller/site, or?

I generally don't have much experience with them, but I'm falling behind dramatically with Masterpieces and 3rd party stuff and my budget can't suffer all those $75-$100 hits at this time of the year.

I buy them from eBay. Look for the MP you want and if it seems ridiculously cheap ($35~ typically) and located in China, then you have a winner!
