    The guys at Super7 had a good time and said we could do it again. I'd like to hear your thoughts on the event and if makes sense to do it again. Would more notice and doing it on Sunday help those of you who could not make it this time?

  2. Started by BaCon,

    Picked up a couple things recently: TRU Colma has all the new Go-Bots with the clear plastic. They also have resupplied with Energon boxed items. There were quite a few Landmine's and a Jetfire or two. Also saw about 5 G1 Skids reissues and a couple of Dige and Skywarp. All I saw new at the two Targets was more Omega Supremes.

  3. Where can I find one in San Jose? Thanks!

  4. Heya! It doesn't appear this forum gets a lot of traffic, but maybe I'll get lucky. I'm a big 'ol transformers dork, having been a fan since I was old enough to wear my Glow-In-The-Dark Jazz footie pajamas, and I've just recently relocated from Memphis, TN to Burlingame, CA. It's a bit of a culture shock, having never been further west than Arizona in my whole 29 year lifespan, but I like it here and I'm adjusting. Although since I drove cross-country to get here, I wasn't able to bring anything except essential staples; I'm a little bit sad that all my toys and active custom projects are 2,500 miles away, and they won't be joining me until I earn enough money to h…

  5. So, seriously, Comics and Collectibles sucks. They're *way* overpriced, selection is spotty on newer stuff (but if you want old TFC or BT's, it's the place) and the guys that work the counter there (not the guy with the belly) are all totally awkward and hard to get to do anything. Entertainment Earth is out of business. That weird import store across the street from Safeway on Taraval is out of business. Japantown collectibles is the best there is and that's not saying all that much. I recently decided I should be keeping my money local and help out community dealers, but the offerings are just lax. Can anyone suggest somewhere, preferably in the City, though a…

    I am looking for the Costco exclusive Cybertron Optimus Prime & Wing Saber 2-pack. I will pay cost plus tax, not scalper prices. If someone in San Francisco can help me out, please PM me.

  8. I've seen these for a long time and can't seem to find them for sale in stores in the Bay Area. Does anybody know where I can find other stores that sells them (but not online)?

    Since I have no idea where the bay area is and there is nothing that explains it! I thought I'd post this: Went to 'West bay' (Dorset UK) - no transformers there! Bridport does some of the same old energon in 'frosts'? (toy shop there) But nothing in the bay area! :P

  10. Started by wezard,

    From 9/24-9/30, TF and other toys too. No more TRU after San Francisco store closed. Anyone in San Francisco going?

    Look guys... can we, you know -- in the spirit of this being the bay area and all -- set up an Transformers co-op? You don't have to do house chores or anything, nor do you have to cook once a week... you just have to look out for your fellow TFans. Here's the deal. I know alot of you are looking for Prime, and when he comes out, Mirage. I've wasted *a ton* of gas and time looking for Prime and they've already gone through a case assortment with him. This may be the case with some Cybertron figs for some, for others it'll be something different. While having a sighting thread kind of helps, it's not really effective because by the time that you sit down at you…

    I've got the following for sale. I need some extra cash for Botcon. Noisemaze Runabout vs. Longrack Blurr vs. Buzzsaw Auto Microns Taken out of thier boxes, transformed, put on display, and placed back into thier boxes. If anybody in the Bay Area is interested, we can do a meet up and we won't have to muck about with sending a package and paying shipping costs and all that.

    The con is coming to SF on 12/17-12/18, there we'll be plenty to see, vendors to buy from and events! Look at the preexisting thread in the con section. THanks! :clap

    Hola: Reissue Side Swipe has arrived in Puerto Rico. The most interesting part is the store: KB Toys! I've spotted 30 of them! :eek :eek Well, actually 29, not counting the one I bought, which I offer you the link to. :D :clap BTW, in case the price tag's not that clear (or you're blinder than me :tftongue ), the magic numbers are 17.99. BTW, the KB Store in question is the one in Plaza Las Americas, hato Rey, PR. So, the message to all my TFB (Trans Fanaticos Boricuas) is: Arranquen pa'lla antes de que se transformen y las chillen! :tfevil (Literal TransLation: "Head over there before they "transform and roll out"!)
