Hey Taaron, Could you let me know if the extras (not the obvious storyboards) on Totoro & Kiki's are the same as the ones on Ponyo ??? The way it's worded on the back of the DVD's could go either way, different for each movie or the same of Ghibli. I already have Disney's 2 disk releases of those (that include storyboards) and can't tell if these would be worth getting again just for a couple extras or waiting on a future Blu-Ray release... Miyazaki RULES !!! :bounce

While shopping at Wal-Mart for Ponyo yesterday I saw some items I've only seen a couple times before. Legends Devy, Wheelie, & Soundwave. Also a line of toys based on the new movie "How to Train Your Dragon" that appear to be exclusives to WM.

Those Legends have ONLY been at WalMart around here since Jan. BUT they just showed up at TRU this week !!! Except for some reason Wheelie has been at every KMart and only 1 at each store :shrug

Good luck, they seem to be EVERYWHERE but here. There's even Canada auctions on ebay now :argh

Went out looking for the TRU Ani. Arcee & Ratchet, no luck :grr Called from Milwaukee to Chicago and no luck. Stopped at Wal-Mart and found all of their exclusives instead. They had 4 Legends Devastator at $32, and a bunch of the Scout 2-pks (Beachcomber/Deadlift)&(Slapdash/Trenchmouth) at $16 each. Grabbed a Devy to ease my Animated pain :sneak

Found a case of WST series 2. With Megatron, Thrust, Silverstreak, Optimus, ect... :yay Pretty cool little guys and lots smaller than the WST "Dinobots". Now if I could track down a Dark Retribution Dinobots set I'd be one happy boy indeed :tflaugh

I was gonna start a new thread to talk about the BB/Soundwave 2-pk but it seems like everyone found them this week. Picked up 3 at TRU tonight with some sweet Atlantis & Star Wars LEGO sets for my boy when he's old enough. They had Mighty Muggs on sale all over the store but I didn't need any now. The 2-pk comes with a sweet NEST patch and the redemption certificate for Ravage (only 1 Ravage per form) and of course a sticker for the form. What I forgot, or never knew at all, was you ALSO have to send $4.95 with the 3 stickers. :shrug And as mentioned there is a replacement to the twist-ties. A string like fiber that reminds me of a firecracker wick/fuse !!! Good thing my 4 year old nephew is here and eyeballing BB cause I don't need (another) one !!! Time to order Ravage :con :con :con

Traded a ROTF legends Optimus for a classic Universe Prowl :yay

When they showed up on ebay most of the auctions said they were TRU exclusives. And BBTS has them listed as "Exclusive Wave" but they don't say exclusive to who. But auctions also say that an item is "rare" when we know damn well it isn't. TRU is the only place I've seen em though... :con :con :con

Put about 200 miles on the truck in a N.E.S.T. roadtrip and found BB, Dirge & T.Mudflap at the 1st Target I hit. But at multiple Wal-Marts I found Legends Soundwave & Wheelie. Finally :) Maybe I should have looked there for Cosmos ??? About 1/2 had MP Skywarp at $30 while the rest were still full price. BLUDGEON where are you ??????????????? :( .........the hunt continues.........

Congrats Sami !!! He transforms into a lean, mean, fightin' machine :) How long til' he gets an Autobot Tattoo ???

The Hangover & Inglourious Basterds on DVD and found 2 Electrostatic Soundwaves !!! Plus, at Target they have a display of men's PJ's (Sami you can get em' too) with flannel pants & t-shirt. There are Family Guy and others. The sa-weetest are G1 Transformers !!! AND they're now $5 off :) For $15 you get a shirt with G1 Optimus and pants with G1 Prime & Megatron. Someone posted a small pic of these a few days ago, but forgot to check cause I have my own hangover and need more aspirin...

I'm wishing I had that Ravage too. Here I thought my Beast Wars one was cool !!! Sa-weet pics dammit. Oh, and my 2 yr old son plays fetch w/cat toys... $0.02 ;)

Yeah right... this is the new age where men want a real woman, not those "I need a samm-ich" gals who fall down and break in a slight wind !!! Here in Wisconsin the new Animated have only hit Wal-Mart so far. Of course, since they're on sale today at Target :(

It was gonna happen... Sami now IS Optimus Prime !!! I'm a Decepticon man myself, but Prime never had legs like that :) Oh yeah, almost forgot... picked-up another Electrostatic Soundwave yesterday. RATBAT kicks keytar ass :P

Picked-up another MP Skywarp at my WalMart last night. :con CHECK THOSE X-MAS SECTIONS !!! Found at least 20 of these in the X-Mas promotion area w/other toys. NOT the X-Mas decoration area. :wave

Nice haul !!! I only saw 1 Thrust at WalMart after work Fri. when they were closing and I put it back :fire This is the first I'm hearing of the 2 Thrust figs. Can you please take shots showing the 2 variants ???

What's it Transform into ???

Finally picked-up HA Bumblebee :yay Wal-Mart had it for $29.96 !!! Glad I waited when I saw K-Marts $$$.

Where'd ya find em' ????????

OoooooooKay I'll get right on that ;)

Here's pics... Now can I open them ??????

Mailman just dropped off 2 ROTF Ravage figs from HTS :yay Let the DeceptiFUN begin !!! Thanks to whoever dropped the news about HTS having him on their site a couple of days ago in the Shout-box :)

Nice score! :thumb I didn't see any of the Animated Leaders when I ran by Target on Friday. Found Magnus on the 30% discount endcap, saw his price tag (covering the tag for 30% price) and scanned him just in case. Yup $9.97 !!!

Found Ani Ultra Magnus at Target for $10 :yay 75% OFF !!! Missed out when the 2 Ani Target sets were $5 but this makes up for it !!! Yowza...
