  1. Glad to be home. 19 straight hours in a car is just too damn much. Well not really straight, took about 10 minute breaks ever few hours, but still.....

      I hear you. I could do that 10 years ago with a smile, but not anymore. *sigh*

  2. Still no luck finding Prime: Arcee after waiting hours in line at TRU last night.

  3. toysrus.com has the Prime figures in!!!

  4. I remember making a thread about how registering was easy and how New Users shouldn't be allowed to make new threads right away..... *looks at recent spams*

      Every time I've joined a message board, it was to comment on an existing thread, not make a new one. This could be a good way to stop the spambots.

  5. DMV wasn't bad this year... Hell and back I suppose. Barely passed my renewal test too.

  6. Not looking forward to going to the DMV to renew my DL. Pretty sure I have to retake the driving test because of the two speeding tickets I got early last year.

      way to ruin it for me Blitz aha, but yeah my friend had gotten a ticket and was force to retake the test. He failed it twice. Not sure what the ticket was for though.

  7. Quite possibly the BEST Optimus Prime costume I have ever seen: http://ww2.sinaimg.cn/bmiddle/49ea8f0cgw1dmnh0ev8bgj.jpg

      whats up with this spam?! That costume is sweet. looks mostly like the general release of the G1 OP costume that came out last year. Love the changes they made though.

  8. w00t! Got a 20% off any item card that came with the TRU holiday book or whatever its called. Hmm, what to use it on....

    1. Hip-Hoptimus Rime

      Hip-Hoptimus Rime

      Man, I got that catalog but no 20% coupon, just $10 off a $100 purch. Hmph.

  9. Why is it when ever I start a PoL, all my preorders for the month get pushed back?

    1. jeffafa

      jeffafa

      And as soon as you ship it, those preorders come in and start a new POL

  10. As much as I hated Classics Skywarp before, I love it now.... but he is now up on eBay aha Discount for anyone here.

  11. Damn, TRU's b1g1 50% looked so tempting. Too bad they had nothing I wanted.

      Didn't agree with his business model, but a genius none the less. I would never wish for anyone to die the way he did.

      RIP, but the man was a dead beat dad, whose company never gave to charity and had his products bult in sweat shops only to make a killing overpricing those very products...

  13. PayPal holding my funds up to 21 days? *hulking up*

      I can see doing that for a LARGE amount, but other than that STUPID.

    3. Optics

      Optics

      Lowest amount held on me was $20... I'm sure they would do that even if it was a penny.

       

      After making 2 calls, they ended up releasing my funds for use. Said this was the only time he would/could do that.

       

      @SL, I have their debit card and I prefer using that over my BoA card. Before I would have to transfer from PayPal to Bank which took 3-5 business days.

    4. puma

      puma

      there are plenty of websites that use paypal as well.

  14. Revoltech Prime is so dangly

      Superior Grilled Cheese

      glad I didn't buy it then, lol

  15. I'm just gonna stick with USPS when it comes to shipping. Much cheaper than what those other guys were trying to charge me. $18 compared to $5?

    1. puma

      puma

      Well, yea! I never ship the other guys.

  16. Revoltech Optimus has been shipped! Also got my reprolabels set in today (3 weeks). Such high quality looking stickers.

      Just curious, what labels did you order? I've order from them twice, 6 sticker sets total. They are pretty good, but I find the adhesive doesn't always work. I had to use a glue stick for some of them.

    3. Optics

      Optics

      aha Yeah, I kinda made that comment before even using it. I ordered a sheet for a Power Ranger zord. They looked good because it was textured. And yeah, the adhesive wasn't all that great because I was and am still able to move the sticker around. Thats good and bad depending how you look at it. Some aren't even perfect fits.

    4. jeffafa

      I hope that means BBTS will get him soon! I just check HobbySearch and they are already sold out.

  17. Updated my sales thread which now includes Xbox 360 or PS2 games... cheap, but old games.

  18. Irritated.... somehow I lost both those blue hands from the Energon bulldozers.

  19. Custom Jetwing Prime.... AMAZING! http://ww3.sinaimg.cn/bmiddle/6b4f8648gw1dks4rint69j.jpg ... Still, there one thing all these Custom Jetwings have all gotten wrong...

    1. StarLurker

      StarLurker

      The feet? The chest?

       

      The chest is especially hard to get right, because if I recall correctly JW OP's entire chest is covered with black armor.

      The wings on the movie didn't have four large engines but two large engines and a bunch of smaller ones. And the wings have a slight toggle on the ends.
