Bay Area Transformers Fans

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?

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.

Totally unrelated, buuuut... WTH! Did brother-in-law's on divis close? I just went by there and they were closed and when i called their phone it says that # is disconnected.... I've been craving some good BBQ ever since I had E.C.C Enterprise's BBQ in San Jose and Bob Saget, if they took brothers away, I'm gonna be PISSED!!!! anyonw know?

I've been noticing a number of people here on TFans are from the San Francisco Bay Area. Since I am and I partially run this site, I thought that it would be cool to set up a spot where locals could talk about toys, local shopping and ultimately work on setting up some regular swap meets where people can hook up to talk, buy, sell and trade Transformers stuff. I am already working on setting up a swap meet in San Francisco. I would love to hear from all of you out there who can attend and/or help with promoting it. This would be an event open to everyone and with no charge. Super7 Magazine has graciously offered the use of their store in Japantown for such an event.…

here i am going to targets and whadda ya know, mr. walton had first dibs on this assortment. i almost gave up on you sammy. funny thing is that i was not the 1st on location. 3 of 4 remained, MY wheeljack, ravage, and SHOCKWAVE?!?!?! huh???

Let's get it going everyone. June 4th is looking good. Can you make to a swap meet on this date? We need to decide, find a place and start promoting it ASAP! Post here if you want to join in for a June 4th Swap Meet for Local Bay Area TF Fans!

Lets get this thing off the on the right track. What kind of things are we going to see at the swap meet? Persoanlly, I have lots of stuff to offer, the following is just a list of stuff that I will be bring to the meeting G1 Soundwave/Buzzsaw MIB complete G1 Takara Laserbeak MOSC Takara Victory Series Deszaras MIB complete G1 Abominus G1 Computron G1 Defensor G1 Bruticus G1 Superion DW Transformers comic first series issues and many more to come.

For me its mostly online, but I do hit these places from time to time: Japantown Model Shop Super7 Yes Anime The shop in the J-Town mall Jeffery's Toys Cards & Comics TRU - Geary TRU - Colma Toy Shop - Taraval None of these is all that stocked. Sure would be nice to have something really focused on TF stuff.

hey, Is anybody going to bay to breakers this year. Unless you want to go to the afterparty, you dont really need to register.

I got sick of driving down to Colma and doing the whole Target 1 -> TRU -> Target 2 thing to find new alts and not finding anything, so this time I asked to speak to whever did the buying in TRU. The lady at the counter said that coporate does all the buying/distribution and that no one there had any say. She went to check the computer to see what would be coming in the next month or so and she said that it didn't look like they were getting any Alts for a while and that there weren't any listings coming up for future boxes. :tdown LAME. She was super nice though, and when she asked me what toy I was inquiring about, when I said Alternators she smiled and …
