Come here... you're not the real Cobra Commander without a Megatron!" and with a smile, he handed me a free Walther P38 Megatron gun from behind his booth. Such a great guy! I returned later that day and spent about $40 on weapons, bunkbeds, lockers, a table and chairs, barbed wire, barrels, and other goodies, which are all being used either onboard my Flagg or inside my Terrordrome.

OK, so I figured out the formula... avoid the middle age ladies who take their job to seriously... and ask the "dorky" kids in electronic to pull the toys for you. Finally got my Retaliation figures... bleh!

I got the same 2 freebies. Don't know what i did with the shotgun, but the Uzi went right to one of my Snake Eyes figures.

That is the way to go.. Most of the time your better to wait for the oldies to go home at 4-5pm and go after and ask the kids to pull the stuff. What do they care they just want to shut all of us up so they can go back to talking...

I snagged the 2 Joe troopers and a Zartan from Taunton this afternoon. The rest is still there from the 2 cases. You'll have to ask someone to pull them though. The CCs are black. Both troopers had brown capes and masks. I want 1 more Joe trooper and then I'm done until if/when we ever get to wave 5 (Night Viper and Shadow CG or whatever it is called).

Is this the same good old Fast_Draw who recently said on the RI thread: "

Haha, I kid. Glad you picked them up, both the Joe Trooper and Zartan are very badass figures, Zartan is a great homage to his Renegades character too. I just weep at Zartan's lack of ankle joints.
