"small" list- 1. takara animated blackout- love,love, love this figure. the paint is superior to what the hasbro one wouldve looked like. the posability is amazing. its a fantastic figure all around. and well worth the cost of importing it. its size doesnt bother me in the least. the only real gripe i have is pretty much no shoulder spread. other than that i love this figure. really captures the essence of the character well in my opinion. if you dont have him and can afford to import him, go for it...you wont be sorry. im not 2. fansproject munitioner and explorer- excellent interpretations of swindle and blast-off. posable, playable, not at at all as fragile as i thought they where gonna be from some of the things ive read about them. they definitely fit right in with classics/universe/generations/RTS toys. a little pricey for basically scout class figures. but well worth it when you think about all the accessories they include. and to add icing on the cake they finish the most amazing combiner ever. energon bruticus looks great with the add on parts. g1 all the way. my most favorite figure/figures of this year. blows every other combiner out of the water in terms of look and playability. i know everyone is gushing over protector, but this is definitely fansprojects best effort to date. do yourself a favor and pics these guys up. you wont regret it 3. RTS jazz- got the whole first wave of RTS including the RODvsCYCL two pack and i have say jazz is my favorite of the bunch.. but from what i can tell, everyone feels that way, hes amazing. its totally jazz all the way. my only gripe is the same one everyone else has had, his waist doesnt lock in, other than that i love him, favorite deluxe of the year. with the exception of HFTD terradive. hes an amazing deluxe. 4. several revenge of the fallen scouts- all of them are great. simple as that. best scouts weve had in a long time. i got dead end, the motorcycle guy, the scattorshot repaint, and sunspot, all of them are great.. 5. HFTD terradive- amazing. love the alt mode, love the robot mode, the trident is spectacular, the posability is spectacular, the character is spectacular, great deluxe all around. go for him as well if you can find him

the walmart in lebanon has 3 of the hot rod vs cyclonus 2 pack. the toys r us behind the camp hill mall in camp hill has animated rodimus minor and ironhide. and the green legends devastator recolor. toys r us in harrisburg by the harrisburg mall has dirge thunderwing terradive and tomahawk...along with RTS wave one...

i must say...bruticus is freaking epic....one of my new favorite toys....so worth the 260 i paid for it....my christmas present to myself.....

ill have to say breaker..you have a valid point....i just prefer actually looking at the person that im playing....for some reason the look on there face when im about to own it gives me a rush....and im obviously not aware of how much the cards cost in the online game are seeing as i dont play it......ill tell you this though...and actual singles in shops and online are getting ridiculously expensive....having to pay 60 bucks for a jace the mindsculptor really pissed me off...

ah..online magic...i dont play that one..nor have i tried...where i live there is a card shop twenty minutes away and does FNM and all that...so there are plenty of people for me to play with.....and i figured if i spend all this money on actual cards i cant afford them in the online game..that and physically playing ppl versus playing them over the computer holds more appeal to me...i have so many actual cards ive lost track of everything i have....highly looking forward to mirrodin besieged...scars is a great set....just cant seem to pull a lux cannon to save my life...and the shop doesnt have any singles.....:argh

yeah..thats my other hobby.....and its crazy cuase its just as expensive as transformers....which makes it really hard...do i get cards?...or do i get a new transformer?...its gonna be even harder come febuary when the new expansion comes out.....lots of new toys coming out....lots of new cards coming out...decisions, decisions...
