I will certainly keep them in mind. Damn those are awesome prices. Only two-thirds of what I paid for the first one. I may be doing business with these guys.
Edit: I tried to place an order through these guys since everything was on sale. Couldn't create a user name and I could get Paypal to take. So... just to be careful I've now changed my Paypal password. Last edited by Hicks_Royel; 09-03-2012 at 11:25 PM.. |

I'm not real clear on what Gundam is. Japanese cartoons that haven't been edited into a different story (i.e., Voltron, Robotech) confuse the living hell out of me. I know we had a huge selection of Gundam action figures when I worked at a K-B 11 years ago and I thought they looked cool.
Damn I'm old.

I don't know much about the fiction of Gundam either, but the models are cool enough.

I may do that. Shame, they almost had a decent amount of my money. Still, no charges showed up in my PP account, so no harm, no big deal. However, because it was once again a case of "last one", BBTS got more of my money. And they had three of them Saturday too...
Ah well. |

Yeah, I can totally see that actually.
--Joel, he's looking at... well, that's random, he's over in the Furbies now. ==Well, maybe it's for his girlfriend. Then they both have good laugh. As for Magnus, I know a lot of folks didn't get the Hasbro version for whatever reason so I can sort of see Takara making a smart move with this one. But I can also see the "for a repaint?" side of it too. And... damn it. PE-12 Assault Force X - Third Party Transforming Toys & Accessories Perfect Effect |

Those are some odd colors for a transforming camera combiner.

They "reflect" the G1 mail-in's deco.
So, if I had a big pile of cash and nothing better to do with it, I think I would buy say... twenty-five each of MP-Thundercracker and MP-11 Sunstorm. Why? Well, let me get to it you impatient jackwipe. The TRU MP-Thundercracker is causing quite a bit of grief for collectors. And, honestly, it has been frustrating for me as well. So, yeah, it's starting to swell. Now imagine if a man with too much money and the free time to execute this plan were to swap out twenty-five MP-Thundercrackers with MP-11 Sunstorms, put all the packaging back as it should be, [down to the nylon bands, paper ties and clear tape] and return those twenty-five "MP-Thundercrackers" to random TRUs across this great nation we live in... And just sit back and wait until one is found. Oh, the grief this "Variant" would generate. The "wft"s and "Fuck Hasbro"s that would come forth would likely result in an angry mob taking to the streets, assaulting both Hasbro's headquarters and eBay's as well. And since I'm made of money at this point, I would also put in the extra effort to change the name on the display stand to read, "Sunstorm". You know, just to give it that little something extra for those questioning if the first few finds are legit. Last edited by Hicks_Royel; 09-07-2012 at 05:09 AM.. |
