I haven't seen anything huffermad.gif . I am over in the Maryville area. I think we may be the last to get everything.
gkopw
In eastern Mass I haven't seen any huffermad.gif
I'm getting really annoyed.
SureShot
I'm in middle TN (right outside of Nashville) and I've seen everything... walmarts here have 15 megs and tons of the latest universe and energon stuff... I'm just waiting for universe ramjet...
SureShot
Hey, had any of you seen energon magnus in TN? I looked at 9 places total constantly and never saw any. Just wondering if you guys saw one.
Lostprophet8
Nope, never saw one rumblecry.gif
EPrime1
I never ever seen magnus in stores. I was able to get one off of ebay for about 35 bucks. I figured that was my best shot at getting him.
Lostprophet8
$ 35 is pretty good. They are going for at least $40 and up now.
SureShot
Universe Ramjet found at Hickory Hollow TRU in middle TN!

Got 2 smiletf.gif
Lostprophet8
Found Ramjet at the TRU in Knoxville. Still looking for Insecticon and Arcee.
SureShot
The KBtoys in OpryMills in Nashville has the G1 minibot keychains buy one get one free and they are 2.99 so it's 1.50 each.

I may go and get doubles for kitbaching smiletf.gif
SureShot
found arcee, insecticon and mirage at walmart!
MarcusPrime
Yeah, insecticon, mirage and arcee all in Murfreesboro
MarcusPrime
hey SureShot, are you going to OTFCC?
SureShot
When and where is it? I'ld love to, but doubt it.
Jhiaxus
Another Tennessean here who would appreciate any news.
SureShot
hey, Jhaixus, what part are you from?
Jhiaxus
Close to you. I'm just outside Nashville, in Hermitage.
SureShot
Whoh, I'm in Mt. Juliet... right outside of Hermitage... if you see the 20th prime on clearance at the new super walmart or in rivergate, PM me... and I'll PM you if I see the same.

Have you been to the great escape? they have old TFs and some new ones... opened, but still cheap.

Also, have you looked at any of my TFs for sale in the end cap? I'll sell'em to you cheaper since I wouldn't have to ship them (except takara reissues, unless you bought them all)... and you wouldn't have to pay for shipping.
Godbomber
Forgot to post this on Monday, but in Memphis I did see one Arcee at the Target in Germantown (DEEP into Germantown, same shopping center as Ben & Jerry's)
MarcusPrime
Jhiaxus and SureShot, so close to me.... This is cool! Im in Murfreesboro (20 mins south of nash down I-24)
So yeah, we should all go grab coffee sometime, or go on a late night toy run. smiletf.gif
SureShot
Heh, pretty cool... it's good to know that there are some collectors on this board that are around here.

I've got friends going to school at MTSU... so i've been down there a few times at the TRU and kMart.

Meeting would be cool but tough to do... I have a rather busy schedule usually... Just keep us updated if you see and items on sale or clearance!
MarcusPrime
I used to work at that Toys R US. lol. Now I work at a comic/collectible shop here in the boro.
SureShot
cool, what's it called?
MarcusPrime
Outer Limits comics.
And yes, we have old transformers there. smiletf.gif
SureShot
ah, I've heard of it... do you guys have lots of good stuff?
Jhiaxus
Sureshot, may take you up on that offer, you got some good stuff!

Marcus, I went to school at MTSU and I'm still occasionally in the Boro. Send me a PM or email if you ever want to hook up.

I got an Arcee at the Walmart supercenter the other day, but that was the only one. If I see any more there, I'll let you guys know!
MarcusPrime
Already got mine (Arcee and Insecticon) I know where there is a Mirage though, and Im just trying to see about affording him. LOL


Oh and the Comic store, yeah, they have some good stuff. Its kinda random over month intervals: depends on who sold what into the store.
SureShot
The great escape close to work rocks... they have a good bit of stuff. I just got a reissue magnus complete in box for $15... also got the RID scourge (chrome tanker) there a while back for $12 and lots of other good stuff.

MarcusPrime or Jhaxius, let me know if you want anything from my list in the end cap... it'ld be really nice to sell them locally.
MarcusPrime
well, my 2 holy grails are Energon Ultra Magnus, and Armada Nemisis Prime.
ummm, add to that Jhiaxus and Megabolt... lol
SureShot
Hey, if you guys get in another Jhiaxus, let me know... I really want that one... that and ratbat (cassette).

Are there any specific ones you guys are looking for? I pretty much know what all they have (except the beast era ones... never liked them).
MarcusPrime

by 'holy grails" I ment that I personaly was searching for them.

And 'never liked beasts' sureshot? shame shame shame on you!!!!
SureShot
yea, the beast era never appealed to me. Transformers just seem to fit better with cars, planes, etc...

I can't believe I passed up Jhaixus and megabolt because I was expecting to get them for Christmas... icon_sad.gif
MarcusPrime
for me, I lived through the 80's as a kid. had transformers and whatnot. watched the show. it was cool and all, but nothing really overwelming.

THEN, Beast Wars happened, and thats the reason Im here today, as an adult. I saw the show, and it really pulled me in, like good television and sci-fi should. Also being written for a collage audience as well as for younger really helped. The last toy I had as a kid, was the micromaster that came with the aircraft carrier. it was... um, just ok.

Then in 98, a friend got me Dragon Megatron as an X-mas gift, because he and I had gotten into Beast Wars, and I freaking loved it!!! That was one sweet toy. From there the collection grew, with Tigerhawk, Op Op, Rampage and Depth Charge. After that, I decided to become a completionist.

So yeah, thats my story. Thats the reason for the last 5 Botcons/Otfcc.
Thats why Im a fan: Dragon Megatron and Beast Wars.
SureShot
I guess I "grew out of" transformers the time the beast wars and such came along. I'm 28, so after G1, I didn't get anything until armada when I got back into it (a little late unfortunately)... I was too late for the prime and magnus reiussues at TRU. icon_sad.gif
MarcusPrime
(a collective 'ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh')
SureShot
target in rivergate has unicron for $20... just thought I'ld let you know.

And when you see 20th prime on clearance, let me know... I want to get another one cheap to paint as scourge.
SureShot
Energon Omega Supreme at the KBtoys in OpryMills Mall!!!! $60... won't pay that much for him... i'll wait till it's $20 like uni.
Ccgp
The walmarts here in Covington and Millington have up to wave 3. I search about once a week to see if they finally put them out. I wish a had a comic shop like that near me.
Blackstar
Got Energon Strongarm and Offshoot last weekend at the Murfreesboro Target, picked up Takara Reissue Minibots and Sideswipe at Outer Limits in Frankline, Skids at Outer Limits in Murfreesboro, and Shockblast and Cliffjumper at the Walmart in Cookeville on Monday evening.

The Outer Limits in Franklin had Hot Rodimus with Firebolt and said they'd be getting Astrotrain in again soon, along with Hound and Stepper, so keep an eye out.
SureShot
sweet... where is the outter limits in franklin?
MarcusPrime
murfreesboro
SureShot
where exactly is it located? I'm not too familiar with m'boro... I know how to get to the TRU there... that's about it biggrintf.gif
A Nonny Moose

Outer Limits in Franklin is right on HWY 96 beside Kmart, which is close to I-65
MarcusPrime
There is one in franklin as he said, and there is one in the boro, the same road that toys R us is on, just drive twards town across Braod st, where the road your on becomes memorial, keep driving, and its on your left, across from an O'Charley's in a little strip mall.
SureShot
Cool.

There's an alt-silverstreak at te kmart in lebanon... I got the hound and other silverstreak that was there biggrintf.gif
