I don’t know why, but I expect it to transform into a robot
So I had my 15th birthday party on Saturday, and of course, I got some stuff. As for Saturday, I got the lego buildable Stormtrooper, who is pretty good.
I also got Titans return Laserbeak and Stripes, which I never considered getting, though they are pretty good, but now I’m going to have to get Ravage and Rumble. So there’s that.
I also got a $25 Target giftcard, so guess what I did the next day. I went over there, expecting some good Titans Returns figures, or maybe some decent RID Warriors. But no. I found this.
I swear, this is the most abysmal Transformers toy selection I have ever seen. I was so angry. I also found some bootlegs. I didn’t buy them, but I figured I should document them here.
So I was perfectly content, if not a bit disappointed, walking out with these three guys.
But fear not my friends, for this story has a happy ending. During all of this, my mom was looking around, and when she was looking at some snow stuff, she found this mammoth on clearance.
I absolutely love this thing. I’ve heard a lot of people complain about the coral green and red, but I love it. I also love the sword. Its also my first ever box set, so there’s that. I can’t wait to get home today so I can play with it more.
My transformers section looks about the same (minus a ton of one steps and 3 steps.
For me I like the molds chosen for Victorian but matching colors rarely look good on a combiner. That and rule 63 megatron is a lot more interesting.
A what?
Megaempress was build using megatrons spare parts. The toy has very interesting lore behind it.
Rule 63: The proposition that it is possible to find genderswapped versions of every fictional character, especially as fan arts on the internet.
@Leoxandar lol. I wish…

Yep. say hello to how my TF section has looked since december.
also, Victorion:
price?
like, how much did ya pay?
$50. I had to make a deal with my mom. There may have been a tiny bit of begging involved. But it was put on clearance, twice. The original price was $100, then it dropped to $70, then I got it for $50.
I know that feeling.
For me, it’s kinda like a loan; i either gotta find the money eventually, or just work the rest of the debt off. all the while, any money i get goes directly to her until the debt is gone.
Pretty much the same for me, only a bit less strict. I usually just work it off.
oh, i do the same.
it’s just that i still have to be debt-free next time i get something.
Me and @ToaKylerak were lucky enough to get three of our most sought-after figs in this series: Bathrobe Batman, Commissioner Gordon, and Red Hood.
That’s one of the ones that I need to complete my Bruticus.
I’m becoming quite fond of these smol impulse Nixo Nets
Personally not a fan of the use of regular solid orange; they should stick with trans orange all the way around. Also, the angled wheels on this one look a bit awkward IMO.
Speaking of wheels, all 3 smol impulses interestingly share the same “reverse tricycle” design (with two large wheels at the front and a smaller one on the back)…
