Studio Series.

No mixmaster yet for me from BBTS. But I did get scrapper in my POL and the last two aerialbots. But plan to wait to ship

Walmart clearance is always so arbitrary, always store by store basis. I rarely find anything at my Walmarts, let alone recent stuff, let alone recent stuff on clearance.

I can’t imagine trying to get all the devastator or Superion parts at retail.

I have seen the commander class for both at Target and Walmart but never any of the other pieces
 
I liked Cheetor so much I went ahead and ordered Rhinox and Airazor off Ebay for a decent price. I have to wait till they get here, and it'll be a minute cause the seller is on vacation, and can't ship till the 16th or so. I knew that going in but the prices were really good and he had 100% feedback, looking like hes just getting rid of TF figures he doesn't want anymore. I think ill end up getting Primal and Aplinq at some point, but too much is coming out all at once right now and I can't drop another $100 or so on TFs I wasn't expecting to. I did that with Spiderman figures I wasn't gonna get and I paid for it later lol.

Anyone know what the best version of Nightbird is? And how many of her did they actually make? The RotB one looks fine, but too movie-esk. I wouldn't mind one that fits better with comic or cartoon figures. And the black one is expensive on the aftermarket, and the Buzzworthy one doesn't look as good.

Found Mixmaster this morning at Target, same day Amazon is scheduled to deliver him. I bought this one anyway. Even brought it in to work, to mess with during my free periods. I'm so psyched to have completed the Constructicons.

Feels mostly very solid. I always get hung up on how to fold up Long Haul's arms for combined mode. Left chest wing wasn't properly pegging into Bonecrusher's treads, but I got it. Mixmaster looks a bit small compared to Scrapper as a foot. MM's pistol fits too loosely in the roof slot, but too tightly in his hands and that bumper (LH's gun supposedly goes in the bumper). One gripe I have with MM is how his lower arms don't peg in or fold in in leg mode, just kinda hang there. They could plug back into the cab of the cement mixer, but that would lock up the rocker ankle. Devastator can get into nice poses that can hold and balance well. Overall, feels a bit small, but worth it for the sturdiness.

I got the SS Rise of the Beasts Cheetor. I like it more then I thought I would. His color is a little gold but I don't mind it much. His feet being a little small is annoying, but I think that was design choice, not on Hasbro. He's not my favorite Cheetor, but hes pretty good. Wish I would've gotten the Buzzworthy one but alas, Target hated me too. Story of my life lol.

Not that you should have to get an add-on kit, but DNA's is pretty great...

I hate you. Now I have to buy that. Lol. <3 Seriously though I got the one for Tigerhawk and Silverbolt and it is fantastic. Makes them both so much better. So ty for this.

*edit* Also, the Godzilla one for Megatron looks amazing but its so fuckin expensive.

Haha, sorry!

I desperately want the Silverbolt parts, but never intend to ever get Tigerhawk, and the re-sell gods hate me.

And yeah, it is more than the figure itself, but I need it, lol. Did you see the "Wheelie" Jet Jaguar set, too!? (Which is way more affordable.)
 
I don't think i did. There are alot of sets i didn't know existed until looking on bbts.

Why don't you want Tigerhawk? He's one of my favorites and hes very well done. Some issues are there but alot of them get fixed with the upgrade kit. I'm just curious.

I like him. But I get it. I like white tigers and birds and putting them together was peak tfs for me lol. Hes one of my fave designs in the whole show and there were some really good ones. But everyone's different. He's better then the og toy, but I suppose he does have some limited posing options. He's not as bad as Leo prime. That figure has very bad ankles and doesn't like to pose well. He looks so cool but was very disappointing. Tigerhawk doesn't shelf dive and I can get him to do some fun stuff. I just didn't like the very tiny bird feet and open faced wings. And the brown being brown instead of white. But it'll help it not turn into a completely yellow figure in a few years like Tigatron probably will. The other 2 things are fixed with the upgrade. Absolutely love him and Silverbolt now.

Got mixmaster today from Amazon and have scrapped in my POL at BBTS along with the last pieces for Superion.

Itching to ship it but thinking about maybe adding Jada shaggy and a monster for my Halloween display
