the vynsane asylum

I remember seeing a Cosmos a few months ago. I didn't realize he was a rare find. I didn't get him because he looks as fucking stupid as he did the first time around. A green UFO that turns into a fat robot?

And that Brawn isn't Brawn enough for me either.

Didn't they make a deluxe Warpath awhile ago? Or am I imagining it. It was in a box like the Powerglide and Seaspray figures.

You're imagining it. There've been some tanks. Bludgeon is an especially nice one. And I know I said at Comic-Con that repainting him as Banzai-Tron was a stupid idea, but, dammit, I want Banzai-Tron, too, if I can ever find the fucker.

Cosmos is so fucking rare I'm surprised you didn't see him hiding behind R2-D2 with Holo Leia, Party Angela, and GIJoe: Best of the 80s. I agree he's dumb as shit, but I always liked the character. The semi-psycho from the filecard who liked scaring the shit out of people because he was bored, not the cuddly spaceman from both cartoon and comic.

That's too bad. A deluxe Warpath would be the tits.

there's a kind of a "deluxe" Warpath here http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-new ... es-166814/

Yeah, that's the "Legends." I will never understand their meaning, but Legends are tiny, often shitty, figures, Deluxe are the $10 figures, Voyager are the $20 figures, and Leader are the $50 figures. Making it more confusing, especially for movie figures, they'll have the same character in multiple scales sometimes.

Well then, a Voyager class Warpath would be the tits.

I missed out on Inferno. I was in a money crunch around the time he came out.

Luckily I ordered him from HTS with a coupon code. Never saw him in the stores.

Look on the bright side, though: you should be able to get Grapple. Um, I mean "Solar Storm Grappel." He was always a cooler character, even if firetrucks were inherently cooler than cranes.

BTW, any idea what the "05" on Red Alert's license plate stands for?

I bought 493 AT-AT's today at Target because they are so awesome. But then I took them back to Toys R Us because they were $10 more there, and I made a cool profit of $4,930. I used that to buy 616 Clonetroopers, which I plan to take back to K-Mart next Tuesday. The manager was pissed, but I said, "Woah, dude, they cost more here and stuff."

Hit both my Kmarts again looking for the DCUC. They had bupkes.
On my way home I decided to swing into WM and found Blur and Soundwave. They also had Dirge, but I left him. I haven't bought any seekers since Hasbro fucked us out of Thundercracker.

Given that they've un-fucked us out of Dirge and Thrust, I think Thundercracker is a safe bet for within the next two years at the most. True, that's a long time. But it's better than nothing.

I got Paris Pursuit Baroness, Arctic ROC Snake Eyes, and ROC Para-Viper today at Ross. Curiously, they had these figures in both American and tri-lingual packaging. Was tempted by another Stinger, but running short on space.

I think the ROC Snake Eyes will be repainted to make a bitching Arctic Cobra Commander.

The rumors were true! I just bought an AT-AT at Kmart for 50 bucks. It was on the top shelf behind some Boba Fett helmets. That's also the first SW toy I've purchased in like five years. For myself anyway. I've bought the boy some Clone Wars figures for his Bday and Christmas in the last year or so. If they had had two of them, I wouldve gotten them both.

You are weak, Rollo....

Even I haven't broken down and looked for a $50 AT-AT, and I bought parts of a Halloween costume there two days ago. I have absolutely nowhere to put it. And it'll be re-released, mark my words. They can't make a mold that big and use it only once. Just ask the BMF, and all the people who said I was insane when I said they'd re-release it. And guess what they're doing now?

If I find the BMF for $50 I'll buy that too.

I went into TRU today and found that sweet Back to the Future DeLorean from Diamond Select.

Got the desert RoC Duke from TJ Max. Of course I found him 10 minutes later at Ross for $1 cheaper. I decided $1 isn't worth the time or gas to worry about it.
