Arsenal_12 posted:Sometimes i miss the days when all we had was the Hasbro stuff and we were satisfied with that. I heard this at TFCon too - There are groups that can put a toy together in their spare time like a hobby, but as soon as the business is started they run low on resources. People want wholesale/retail sales support, website support, future plans for new toys, etc. It all gets to be overwhelming for just a few people, there are complaints, insufficient sales or interest, and you burnout and quit.

PoptartsNinja posted:My Sandstorm is untransformable (the front landing gear for helicopter mode came jammed up into the nose straight out of the box, so the piece won't fit over Sandstorm's head); which is a shame because he's otherwise fantastic. Can you hook it with a paperclip or a bit of string/floss, etc?

The_Doctor posted:So that was disappointing. I walk into TRU at 10am, wander to the TFs, there's only 2 Acid Storms on the shelf, so I wander to guest services to ask if they have Soundwave and there's 2 behind her on the shelf. I ask for one, expecting them to be reserved, but she just rings me up! Look at all the time and effort you wasted, jeez why didn't you get it from eBay! (did you use a coupon?)

Optimist Prime posted:Back to Transformers in 2013/14. How do we feel about this? I'm going with "moderately disappointed". I really like the Barricade figure, I sort-of-kind-of won't kick Treadshot out of the display case... but that Fisitron/Ironfist is just a dumb colored poor choice mold.

BXCX posted:Are there any TFs that are Canadian exclusive/easier to get up north (like the Prime first editions) at the moment? I have a Canadian friend who owes me a favor for shipping American stuff up to her. Nothing right now, the exchange fees and shipping costs are also going to be a barrier to imports.
