In a strange fit of excitement over new crack, and the stunning realization that I'm only a few days away from finishing up the Basement of Non-Love™ remodeling, I kinda went bat-shit crazy and ordered a shitload of new crack online.
Now basically what it really comes down to is the fact that I'm too old and bitter to do the "toy runs" anymore.
Giga and I'd spend 5-6 hours some Saturdays driving all around Cowtown hitting Targets, Wal-Marts, K-Marts, Meijers, WeBeToys, Kay-Bee, and a slew of other miscellaneous places in hopes of finding 1 new Transformer for me or a JLU figure for him.
I can't do that anymore.
In fact, I really hate doing it.
So.
When an online store has a shitload of new crack in-stock I'm just going to order it online, pay a small premium and shipping and handling, and be done with it.
That means as of now I have the 3 TakaraTomy Beast Wars X figures coming, as well as:
6" Titanium War Within Ultra Magnus
6" Titanium Sunstorm
6" Titanium War Within Megatron
6" Titanium The Fallen
Alternator Rumble
Alternator Ravage
Soundwave w/Laserbeak and Ravage Reissue
Some energon cubes
And... you are going to all rip me a new asshole for these...
Protoform Optimus Prime and Protoform Starscream
(commence ripping me a new hole now)
\
What sucks is they were sold out of the Revoltech Ultra Magnus that I really really want as well as the 6" Titanium G1 Ultra Magni and Cheetors.
Enjoy your Robo-sperm!
robosperm to go with the $20 primus ovum i bought.
Awww. You guessed.
I hope I can find a ton of the Prime's on clearance in the future too.
I can see the diorama now. . . and the inevitable questions.
"Mommy, is this how transformers make babies?"
Nevermind the sperm-bots... you bought energon cubes?!
Protoform TFs = spermbots
Ha ha ha ... good one!
Definite pass!!
The Protoforms were created by Hasbro.
They look crappy.
They are pointless.
They look
And feel
Totally shitty.
Some will find their way into the Attic of Love.
There will be many copies.
And Nala has a plan.
Custom Rock Lord homages?
No. Thanks to my initial idea and then CrazySteve's taking it to 11 I have an idea for an awesome diorama!
PLease tell me this is going in the Botcon art contest! It would be entertaining *and* edumacational. :)
Only if it would be a Botcon within driving distance. I'd never carry that kind of shit with me on a plane.
But, Evebird and I are both fairly certain this will be our last Botcon, unless the next one is within 3 hours of driving or so.
It is too damn expensive to travel to. And for me, I don't know if I'll even be able to shit through another one of these voice actors again, or quite frankly any other of these panels.
Maybe if it was once every 3 years but every year? I'll pass.
