Did you ever get DOTM Shockwave? I have yet to see it again after the first (and only) time I saw it at TRU.

You're in Buffalo right? Which Blockbuster was it? Abbott Road Plaza. Ok I think I know the one. There were so many Blockbusters which have disappeared all over, especially north Buffalo. :( I moved down to Florida in December. I miss home, not the snow!

I saw it, picked it up and went the checkout a few weeks ago only to leave him at the register. i don't know why, but it just doesn't look like a must buy. Now, if/when I finally come across RTS Jazz......he's mine!

November 3rd? Awesome, that's my birthday too! Turning 32 next week :yay :yay :yay Happy early Birthday!

No need to shave off that part. I have a couple re-issue Primes already. The only reason I tried using it on my Magnus figure was cause all my G1 re-issue Primes along with mostly everything is either packed and ready to ship or already has been shipped. I was using the Magnus figure cause it is this same mold as G1 Optimus Prime. There was NO MENTION I saw of that this Jetpack was not compatible with the original vintage G1 Optimus Primes. Everything I read says G1 Prime, nothing says Re-issues only: http://www.bigbadtoy...001&mode=retail http://SPAM.com/...b26866b7b56c926 Sorry. Like I said, I ordered from Tfsourse, and they had a video of what you can do with this set, and I thought I heard "Reissue" in the video. Sorry. Maybe the hole for the Jetpack is missing on Magnus only. :shrug I just watched the video, he said it works with all the G1 Editions of Optimus Prime, however he is only counting re-issues. Go to 6:00 of the video, he says this kit will fit on all versions of Optimus Prime, however this is wrong. Sorry to be a stickler for detail, but I want those who only have vintage G1 Primes to be aware of this little hangup. It's a great kit, however I wish sellers/store would make this fact known for prospective customers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ehf8CeLjFgA&feature

Unfortunately, all but save a few of my loose Transformers are packed/or already sent away to our new home. My family an I are moving to Florida in December and I have begun the process (huge process) of packing and shipping my collections. Hope these few pics help. Here's a pic of G2 Prime: Notice the slit on the lower back piece that would allow the voice box/backpack G2 Prime came with to connect. Here's the back of my Magnus (this is the one with plastic wheels/unpainted face. Notice the lack of a slit on the back piece present in the G2 Prime pictured above. Behind Magnus'/Prime's head is a piece of plastic which tabs into the top part of the jetpack, while the is a similar tab on the bottom of the jetpack which is supposed to tab into Prime's/Magnus' lower back. Here's a pic of the jetpack, notice the piece of plastic that would tab into the slit on the back of Prime. here's what it looks like. I had a hard time trying to keep the upper tab that connects to Prime/Magnus neck tab/piece in place while standing the figure up. so I just rested the jetpack on top Magnus.

My BTS-03 Matrix of Leadership G1 Prime* Upgrade set came in today. New fists are cool, matrix is ok, nothing special. The Axe is kind of small (I have the Takara Collection #0 Convoy which came with the Energon Axe and the one in this set is much smaller.), Primes rifle is so much better than the G1 rifle. The jetpack is cool, but, BUYER BEWARE the jetpack WILL NOT FIT your orginal G1 Prime. It will fit into your G1 Re-issue Prime though. The G1 Re-issue Prime mold uses th G2 prime mold and there is a slit in the plastic on Primes back that the jetpack tabs into. There is no such slit on the original G1 Prime mold. I tried it on my Original G1 Mangus figure (white Prime) and it couldn't tab in due to no slit. I ordered from SPAM and to my surprise there in the package inside a plastic bag was an extra Energon Axe, only in clear Blue. I thought this was exclusive to Robot Kingdom? Oh well, worth the 20 or so dollars, but remember to have a G1 Re-issue Prime if you want to buy this.

Damn Sami, that sucks. Sorry to hear about your bad luck. Any luck trying to make a claim?

I have been wanting to grab Onslaught for a while, but I haven't bought any figures at full price in a long time. Actually, I lie. The last time i paid full price for figures were for reissues Perceptor and Insecticons at the TRU website. I was in Walmart looking for a deal on MP Skywarp, and saw Onslaught for 11 bucks and said, "why not!?" Sadly, MP Skywarp is still $60.

I finally picked up Universe 2.0 Onslaught at Walmart for $11....I know I'm late. he's a cool figure. Wish they had Powerglide and Silverbolt at that price too.
