Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

That's a good plan, but I live on Vancouver Island where sales opportunities seem a lot more limited. I might do it, gotta wait until I have the funds though.

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

That Creatures Collide pack is tempting. I really only want Ransack from it though... I'll have to wait and see if my fomo comes back and insists on me acquiring the set, haha.

In the meantime, my Origins Jazz and Buzzworthy Silverstreak shipped last night.
I had thrown Silverstreak in to get free shipping, then the next day the price dropped $9 on him (good thing TRU is pretty good with that sort of stuff and they just now refunded the $9).

Most people want Goldbug, so you have a decent chance to make a profit if you buy it and sell the other three. Scorponok and the Waspinator recolour are tough sells, but not Goldbug, I think.

Ya, I think GB would be the only one I could easily sell. I probably wouldn't be opposed to keeping Scorponok but the Wasp repaint doesn't interest me at all and appears to be a very tough sell. Not sure if all of that is worth it just to get the 1 figure that I do actually want.

I bought the pack for goldbug, and put the rest up on facebook for 20 bux.. ransack went the next day and months later im still sitting on the other two. Do not buy this expecting to sell the other pieces as the demand just isnt there.

I'm strongly considering picking up the set (budget dependent) and would have an extra Ransack to sell. I'm also coming to the mainland in 2 weeks, let me know if you're interested and would be able to meet up in Vancouver.

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

I can kind of appreciate the black Scorponok, espec since they did that OG BW re-release recently, but in show-accurate colours? It’s like a fun dichotomy if you have all four:

The OG BW -> BW sculpt, toy colours
Kingdom -> Kingdom sculpt, show colours (kind of)
OG BW re-release -> BW sculpt, show colours
CreaturesCollide-> Kingdom sculpt, toy colours

Also, with the alt head installed, he’s a fun lil bio-ninja - the deco kicks Sandstorm’s *ss, for sure

Let me know. Depending on when, I might be able to make it work.
