  1. ordered Galvy, Rodi & Scorpi. That's pretty much all I'm caring over. I liked my old Generations tracks so I'll be good there. Don't care for the Ark and I'm very satisfied with my old Generations Rhinox.
  2. I was able to go to Toy Dojo but I had a really hard time trying to gauge what was there and of course they don't price tag anything so I wasn't gonna be like grabbing every box and asking the price and working my way around on what I wanted lol. I did however manage to score MP Sunstreaker which was a must, and I grabbed Optus, they had a few of them left so I figured for sure. I actually really like him, I'm not sure where I'm gonna put him since he doesn't exactly fit into anything, but I thought he was really neat. I'm glad though he came with an extra pair of digits cause one of them was already missing when I was transforming him into bot mode so fixed that. Sad that I can't get him to revert back into vehicle form...his legs won't collapse and it has already gotten signs of stressing the plastic at the knees behind the leg. I'm not sure if I'm missing something or there's some kind of a trick cause you can see the tracks inside the legs where it should slide down in...but some reason when it starts to collapse it just stops like there's an obstruction in both legs.
  3. yeah it's toy dojo. Last time I was in there they had a few interesting things, I think some Fans Hobby stuff and some MMC's but it's been a month or two since I last went there....it's quite the drive. But this has given me some ideas on what to look for so I appreciate it.
  4. K....so this might be a tall order. Saturday I'm going out to a little toy shop in Austin that specializes in Transformers, but also namely in 3rd party goods. Is there anything I should take a particular look at getting? Most of my collection ranges in the generations-seige lineup, but I do dabble once in a bluemoon in MP like figures. Mainly looking for stuff that HasTak hasn't released character wise or even seem to be going in that direction.
  5. That to me is a hell of a lot sharper looking than what it was long ago seeing how they were SD sorta looking. I may end up just getting this just for the hell of it since I enjoy side scrollers, and I do like the new graphics.
  6. surprised there hasn't been anyone voicing their opinions on the show thus far. I just finished watching all 7 episodes and I feel, the show has some potential but it really seems to just drag on....7 episodes that could of very easily been done in 3, maybe 4 and given us some more with the remaining 3-4 episodes. Im not saying this was bad, but it certainly didn't feel good and didn't capture what made Pacific Rim a cult hit when first released 8 years ago. I do hope the series continues and maybe give us a little more than 7 episodes and a bit more action.
  7. I'm wondering if he gets a sword as some kind of a nod to him in the Regeneration One series, just missing his shield.
  8. Agreed. Local Walmart is moving inventory for spring stuff and there were 5 Netflix wheel jacks and a few dinky cyber verse figures and nothing else. when I went to Target yesterday they were pretty much just empty of anything but 1 kingdom prime figure and bumblebee junk.
  9. I mean in all fairness Cara’s contribution to S2 wasn’t much but it was at least more than Karga.
  10. These last two days I’ve been really great for figure purchases. Amazon sent out cyclonus and I just love this guy. While on my way home from work I picked up Primal at a local Walmart. And yeah like stated, there’s some quirks I’m not to fond of but he’ll go well with what beast wars figures I’ve collected in the generations line up. then today I was told by a forum member on tfw of another Walmart down the rod having Jazz, Blurr and Hot rod studio figures. So I got those three picked up without issue. I really feel like that these figures will probably be the last I’ll collect once hasbro finishes both these series. I’ve been very satisfied by both WFC and the studios series.
  11. I just got Netflix Soundwave and Elita-1, considering that I was fairly happy with the what was it, power of the primes Arcee? I decided to skip Earthrise and wait when Elita was released. Yeah, I'm not a fan of her overall transformation being a shell former sort to speak. But Soundwave I think is a rather fun toy. There's a few things kind of stiff in the transformation such as cover parts on the legs that then peg into his side during cassette mode. And I feel bad for totally missing out on Rumble and Frenzy and Ratbat to help complete the cassette addons.
  12. January isn’t coming fast enough!
  13. Most people have a full measure of life... and most people just watch it slowly drip away. But if you can summon it all up... at one time... in one place... you can accomplish something... glorious.
  14. Well, this wasn't at all what I thought it was, and felt pretty disappointed.
  15. I went to Toy Dojo located in Austin over the weekend and came across Bluestreak Earthrise. I had to pick him up since I loved the Fairlady Z boys. Sadly though, after 1 transformation the whole roof section snapped off the pin and disintegrated entirely making him non-repairable. 35 bucks down the drain right there....very disappointing.
  16. You keep saying Stormlander, are you meaning Homelander?
  17. Never in my life have I ever uttered “Jesus Christ!” So many times as I have with this series.
  18. I don’t recall seeing that when I preordered it. I think most people like myself are more about “gotta get it checked out NOW before it’s gone!” Speaking of which, I just happened to of looked online at target and noticed they’re taking orders again for the seeker two pack of TC & SW, so I did that as well. now all I gotta do is wait for Thrust to eventually release and I’ll have all my seekers ready to obey lord Megatron!
  19. I got my cone heads two pack and was a lil miffed at Amazon as like so many others who ordered from them, received their units with the shipping labeles slapped right onto the actual toy box versus in a box. Man, lots of collectors are just miffed over it. My box received some damage but luckily the figures were fine.
  20. because the shipping notification I got listed the wrong city in my address. I've never had anything from USPS take that long under the correct address.
  21. I took advantage of their 9.95 special on the Discovery Enterprise last month. Was actually really surprised how quickly it shipped.....but man service went downhill real quick. Their shipment center royally dinked up my address and it went from their warehouse to Indiana and once it hit Texas it went back and forth to 15 places, every day it was somewhere else and even went back to Indiana before going back to Texas where it sat for almost a week in Dallas before arriving to Austin and then sat another 3 days there, went to another town and then to my town. Had a long talk with their customer service rep about the issues last week and they pretty much just said "Oh well." After that I canceled all my future subscriptions with them and terminated my account. The enterprise did eventually show up today and I didn't see anything wrong with it and think it's a pretty neat sculpt. But I don't see these things being worth 50 bucks. I'd pay half that price maybe.
  22. I recently just got a risen printer and have been doing some awesome builds with it. If I can I'm gonna dig around and see if I can find my old busted garland if you ever decide to share those files sometime. Feel like off my printer I can get it to fit just right with almost no issues and have a working and displayable unit again.
  23. I wanted one but bought another printer instead.
  24. I thought they’d come back tomorrow not today from the email I was given this afternoon. i did however watch the river launch. I dunno about you guys but I took part in their engraving event last year and put my family and I names on it. Thus I get to tell people I got my ass to mars.
  25. Don’t forget the seekers and reflectors....think those made the mass of the deception army. they were all that way when you watch but yes for a bit with a grill as his abdomen it looked very out of place. All the fembots got hip sway though so I guess that’s okay?
