Excellent! Can't wait!

I checked 2 TRUs today with no luck. Michigan is usually a bit behind anyway. I'll probably be able to hit 4 or 5 this weekend.

I'm actually a sentient loaf of bread. Pumpernickel.

Got mine on Wednesday! Thanks, Luke!

Yep! Just got the e-mail letting me know that my preorders were processing. I got a bit worried since most of the other SDCC exclusives were in last week.

Yeah, WalMart has been pricing their exclusives like that for a while now. "Always Low Prices" my a$$!

I just found these guys today! I especially like Exploding Stay Puft and Courtroom Peter. For those interested, Slimer's stand came out just fine.

I'd definitely like to see them fill out the courtroom scene and do the rest of the guys in the GB2 suits along with a Louis with earmuffs.

This is what any responsible parent should be feeding their kid(s) "C'mon honey eat your Mc.Donalds......all 88 pieces " http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=h...active%26sa%3DG That guy's gonna be pissed when he finds out that they won't break a hundred for two coffees.

You're actually much better off with Encore Prime (unless all of those extras make it worth it to you). The quality and colors on that thing are horrific. http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toy...ary/1598/1/171/

Sounds awesome! Can't wait!

Awesome, Luke! Reminds me of Jin Saotome's site. Another great sharing his mastery. Can't wait to see the step-by-step guides!

To paraphrase, Wreck-Gar dares to be awesome! I am also particularly excited for Samurai Prowl.

As far as I know, the only difference is in the paint apps and they're negligible at best.

BBTS. I preordered it as soon as they announced it. It's been a great few days for me. I get the City Commander upgrade on Friday and today I find Animated Ultra Magnus. Woo-hoo!!!

I always go UPS with all my BBTS stuff (it makes the most sense for me considering the size of my average Pile of Loot) but I've never had a problem with Parcel Post before. Does BBTS use delivery confirmation or anything with their USPS shipments?

That's a very interesting question and I think that the upgrade kits are, at the very least, tolerated by Hasbro because they don't directly infringe on their design or name copyrights whereas the KOs are direct reproductions of Hasbro properties. On the other hand, I have no idea how Impossible Toys gets away with their Quinteson and Animated human figures.

If you're a Magnus fan, it's definitely worth it. I honestly don't think Hasbro could have done better. The only real drawback is that it limits the elbow and waist articulation a bit. There are a bunch of pictures here if you need some convincing. Also, there's a really cool video of the transformation done in the Cybertron/Galaxy Force style. Also, there's a design sketch for Animated Rodimus here if you don't mind the spoiler.

I am looking for a set. PM me with details, please. As long as you don't mind, Espo.

Why yes, yes I did. http://www.minimatemultiverse.com/index.ph...ost&p=83135

I got my City Commander armor yesterday. Words cannot convey its true awesomeness!

I also received my prize pack yesterday. Woo-hoo!!!

Yes, as mentioned in my previous post. I'd like to take this moment to nominate the Mark I as the best 2-in-1 Minimate ever produced.

Got my set today! I absolutely love this wave! Does anybody know if there's some kind of purpose for the holes on the backs of the Mark II and Mark III? Oh, and only my Mark III helmet has a peg. Kinda weird. Also kinda weird is that only the non-variant pack came with the normal feet for unarmored Mark I Tony. Which is fine since I was just going to display one of each anyway. Just thought it was odd.

Is there a mini Jeff Bridges under the Iron Monger armor?
