So far Universe Blades. I really like this mold so much better with this and the springer paint jobs. Never liked Evac. Hated that orange. Anyways I'm sure this is the only figure I'll get today. most of the family will get me gift cards to go buy my own figures. Hopefully I'll have an update this weekend.

Love how TM2 Megs has put that sad little KO out of it's misery.

Got the 2008 Carlton Cards Megatron Christmas tree ornament at Kohls. They were 50% off (so get over to Kohls soon before they sell out). They only had the one left but he's pretty cool. I wish I had picked up Prime last year. ALSO I found ONE and only ONE Activators Thundercracker at Walmart today! The Activator line is growing on me. Wish he was a slightly lighter blue though. Still in the event that Hasbro does NOT do a Voyager class Thundercracker at least I'll have the Activator.

Picked up the Springer/Ratbat set today. Just want to say that these two are by far my most favorite of the Universe repaints. Springer especially! I was surprised though that there were NO new TF's out today...of all days. No new Aniamted Deluxe figures or Universe figures (except the Target exclusives).

Target Exclusive Roadbuster and Dirge. Really like this repaint for Roadbuster. Dirge is meh...Never liked the mold. The repaints sort of saves it for me but not 100%. One thing I was kinda ticked about is that the comic that came in this pack is the comic for the Springer and Ratbat set?! WTF? Is that the way it's supposed to be packaged? I'll probably go get the Springer and Ratbat set later this week. On another note. They also had the Animated exclusives. Stealth Lockdown was kinda cool...but not enough for me to buy him. The color scheme on Rescue Ratchet made me throw up a little bit in my mouth :puke OH and anybody looking for the Animated Legends figures...The target didn't have a single one on the toy shelf. THEN we were looking at the Christmas stocking stuffers up at the front of the store and they had a whole BIN FULL of the new Universe legends as well as the new Animated ones. SO I would check there if you can't find them in the toy section.

My City Commander showed up today!!! :pileon

Longrack is easily my most favorite Beast Wars figure. I don't know why but I've always liked him.

I'm with ya there brother, I'm trying to cut back this time of year. What other Ultra Magnuseseses do you have? These new ones will be great additions. These are the only two AND RID MAGNUS (can't believe I forgot him) are all I have (or will have) at the moment. Once upon a time...long long ago...I had an original G1. I will again some day. There is just so many cool new figures coming out that I haven't been able to get it together to get one. My G1 collection rebuild is kinda focused on Predaking right now anyways. I'm really looking forward to City Commander though. I was amazed that BBTS got some more in! I thought I was going to have to get the Shadow Commander set. I wish the Shadow Commander set was a completely new sculpt though (not just the head). Same goes for any possible Powered Convoy Armor set. I don't mind repaints but something this nice really needs 3 all original sculpts. JMO.

FINALLY!!! Animated Ultra Magnus!!! And I should have City Commander being delivered in just a couple of days. I shouldn't have done it this close to Christmas but I just couldn't help myself.

Classics Ironhide from Walmart today...still haven't seen Animated UM...guess I'm gonna have to go online.

Came home today to find these on the doorstep... NOW... Due to TCracker and City Commander being a month late...AND Powerglide and Silverbolt coming at the same time...AND my truck breaking down...I have to HOPE and PRAY that there are still City Commanders left when I get paid at the end of the month.

Universe Silverstreak and Sideswipe. According to UPS...on Wednesday I should be receiving my Henkei TC, G1 painted Stormcloud and Silverbolt.

THANK YOU!!! i went o kaybee to check it out (i read the sign, if your willing to fight with them you'd be able to get the new universe deluxe tfs 2 for 10 as the sign only says Transformers Universe Deluxe). i wanted to pick up a sharkticon but couldn't find anything else to pick up so i passed. however, i happened upon the Transformers Movie Chess Set for $7!! quickly snapped that up and went on my way, been wanting this for a while but i wasn't going to pay $30 for it. Your welcome!! Yeah I thought about getting the chess set. I passed. I'm sure I'll be kicking myself later. OH...Isn't Storm Jet a combiner? I didn't really pay much attention to the line he was in until now. What are the other figs that go with him?

Animated Blitzwing and Universe Ledgends Tank Megs AND I went to a Kbee today. They were having a Labor Day sale. They had a ton of older TF Universe figures on sale 2 for $10 Picked up... TFUniverse Sharkticon TFUniverse Storm Jet TFUniverse Lugnutz TFUniverse Backstop

ACK!!! Is NO PLACE SAFE FROM THE GABBA GABBA!!!

Galvatron, Acid Storm, Ledgends Jazz and Hound. Still haven't seen a Blitzwing yet. :grr

DAMNIT!!!!!!!! There was one little thing I didn't know about as far as telling the difference between a wave 1 and a wave 2. Somehow there is a missing piece of black tape. When I saw that this tape wasn't there I thought it was a wave one. I don't know if it got missed or someone took it off, BUT there is another little code on the bottom I didn't know about that allows you to tell the difference. ARGHGHGHG this is a Wave 2!!!! Oh well...At least I bought it for retail and not on Ebay. It's a really nice figure. Still the face doesn't look at all like the "Less Scary" wave 2 figures. It's paint looks just like the "Scary" wave 1. Did they change the mold between the two?

I know. I've REALLY had to fight the urge to start picking up the GI Joe releases. They had a Cobra HISS tank on the shelf as well today. Dear GOD I almost gave in.

A NON-Transformer haul today...just one item. Went to Target this morning and the guy there was putting out some backstock. he said it was stuff that they had found in the back but was never put out. He had one of these... He's a Wave 1. I haven't seen one of these on the shelves since they first hit the shelves. I passed back then thinking "My wife would kill me!". Of course once all the buzz started about the film and Ledger I thought "If I ever do find one...I'll get him." Anyways I was pretty stoked to see him! Ledger was INCREDIBLE in this movie.

The sellers location was Carolton Texas...it's like 15, 20 minutes away from me.

AH HELL!!! That Ravage was right in my backyard!!! URG :stone Nice one though Hells...congrats!! I need to get off my butt and get one of him as well. Maybe in a few months.

:pfx :win

My 2008 SDCC Nemesis Prime arrived on my doorstep today. I normally don't op for the speedy shipping but I made an exception on this one. I also held to my belief that Transformers toys are meant to be opened, transformed, posed and played with. I put his box up safe and sound but man he is NICE! Just more proof that I think this is probably the BEST Prime mode of them all! now If I was clinically insane I would go try and get the Botcon prime figure as well as that red windowed Nemesis Prime to complete this little mold set. Naaa...I like these three...Prime, UM and Nemesis. Next month...CITY COMMANDER!!

WOO HOO..jackpot. Went to the Ghetto Target today and they had ONE of these... He's my favorite Universe so far. Start hunting...he's out!!

I got a couple of items today. A TFC Movie Prime Sword (orange) and their Allspark Cube. The sword is pretty nice. I think it works better on Robovision Prime though. The Cube is gonna need a bit of painting to really make it nice. It looked so much better online.
