Found the recently located Stikfas stock in the US. - Archangel - Female Demoness - Samurai w/ white horse (same packaging as new Dragon/beta but old plastic I think)
Lego has a cool new line out like an updated Rock Raider called Power Miners - Thunder Driller (giant spinning sci fi drill) - Stone chopper (silly) - Granite Grinder - Mine Mech
Anyone ever see a Torch Mighty Mug? I could use one for a project.

Well, I finally found a Sentinel Prime TFA and on top of that, I picked up Swindle.
Now I think for this line, I just need to pick up the leader sized Megatron, Ultra Magnus and maybe Bulkhead and Blur when he eventually releases.

Yeah, I later realized that after checking out the packaging on Sentinel. Also, I got some emails from retailers mentioning they had him. Time to go on patrol once more.

I found (and picked up) DC Universe Wave 6 last night at Walmart. After my run in with wave 5's quality, I was a little hesitant about getting this wave. I've only opened Hawkman so far. The figure is impressive and doesn't have any qc issues. If the rest are like him, I'll throw away my voodoo doll I also picked up some Transformers Universe figs, Cyclonus, Hound, Cheetor, and Galvatron. Cyclonus is awesome, I highly recommend the fig. Cheetor on the other hand... if you're a diehard fan go for it, else you're not missing much. (Hound is cool too! Galvatron is neat but shouldn't be a deluxe) Your Number1 Fan

I concur, they did a real good job with Hound. The articulation of his robot mode is really done well, in much the same way I enjoy what they did for Iron Hide and Cyclonus. I can't wait to see Rachet and more classics done well like these.

Hooked on the new DCUC figs, and picked up a few Legends I needed. Well, I didn't like the fact that The Atom DCUC figure didn't come with a smaller version of himself. I mean, come on the guy shrinks. The perfect accesory would be a mini Atom, but no. Solution, just bought one in a smaller scale, the DC infinite heroes line.

Stuff!
Captain America armor Iron Man Movie Hulk w/steel beam Movie Hulk Abomination Bionicle Glatorian Malum TF movie Fracture TF Animated Stealth Lockdown w/Legends Bumblebee & Prowl
I got the Hulk figs on clearance for $3 each so they'll make great figs to repaint.
I managed to stop myself from buying, but I'll tell you, these Power Miners LEGO sets are daaaamn tempting!

Asian looking guy from Heroes. Need the alternate head for a "Stikfas like" custom. This will get done. Mighty Muggs Human Torch - only one I wanted and bought for the sole purpose of destroying, but it actually kinda neat. Not sure if I'll go ahead with the destruction project. Mini Femisapien robot. For 11 it looks A LOT like the hardsuit from Bubblegum Crisis and may try to paint accordingly.
Target has some boxed TF 2 packs from 45 down to like 20. The one with the purple bat is one of them.

Re-igniting the "spark" into this thread (no pun intended), I picked up TFA Sunstorm with the bundled Ratchet Activator this weekend. Target doesn't have them on display in their store shelves, but they have them now. If you understand retail jargon, basically right now these figs don't have a sales planner associated with them yet, but it could happen this week, depending on how quickly their team members are able to get the sales planners in and set up.
In any case, you can still purchase them, they are not street dated for any date to be sold. Just walk up to any store team member and give them the following numbers to find this item: 087-06-0105. Preface it by saying, I have a DPCI number and they will help you out. This number will also help them locate the Shockwave G1 repaint.
Also, I picked up Classics Inferno. That's all for now.
EDIT: Well, after getting Activator Ratchet, I've decided to take the plunge into these activators, or as I like to call them, "Chibis". They're actually not all that bad. I picked up Optimus and Lockdown to add to the assortment. They make good office bots.
While picking these up, I stumbled onto Classics Ratchet and Hot Shot. I was never big into the Armada line, but Hot Shot I think is worth the purchase.

I usually don't read the card profiles of these figs, but I read Ratchets tonight and .... well, I'll let you see for yourself. This is what it said,...
"Back on Cybertron, Autobot Rachet was the best mechanic around. The only thing that kept him from true greatness was his constant partying."
Ok, wait, wait, wait, wait.... what? Constant partying?? What?!?
(it goes on to say) "Years of war and a series of tragic encounters with Megatron have tempered his good nature, leaving him with a melancholy edge and a sour bedside manner. He's still the finest medic the Autobots have at their disposal, but these days, he's more distracted by his bad memories than his late nights."
Late nights? Constant partying? Seriously, who knew Rachet was such a party animal??
