    Hip joints loose? That doesn't solve the problem here and ZERO remedies to fix the problem. How very typical and seems like one one even bother to think outside that box and to fix the issue.

    At 1:01, the AI voice says it was released by "Bidet" in the 2000s! <Insert bidet joke here> 😳

    One of the very few official illustrations that shows the proper "very pale pink" overall color of the MAXL. (it's not pure white!)

    Interesting & am now only finding out Kotobukiya has ventured into fully built figures.

    Yeah, Coeur D'Alene's not that far, but I don't really enjoy driving, so it's a bit of a haul for me, as I live in Airway Heights. I don't even like driving downtown, TBH, but I make the occasional trip for appointments and infrequent visits to shops and such. I tend to stick close to home and I walk lot. Similar story for my Wally and Target today, minus the Bonecrushers. I saw them in stores briefly, but it doesn't seem like any stores here have been restocking them. But the TFOne Bees (both versions), Retro Gears, AotP Red Alert for a while but dwindling of late, the Transformers for really young kids that nobody seems to buy, and yeah, the terrible SS Q, of which there were two copies, all seem to be warming the pegs. I think if Hasbro abandoned all the kiddy Transformers toys and put those funds towards the mainline and Studio Series, y'know, the lines that us older fans are supporting with our disposable income, nostalgia, and considerable passion, we'd perhaps get some higher quality toys and stores would have far less stock that pretty much goes nigh entirely to clearance. Too, stuff like the Earthspark line could benefit as well. It doesn't have the prestige or funding of the aforementioned lines, but some interesting figs have come out of it, and I think it's good that Hasbro does lines like this just to add some variety. It'd be nice, however, if these lines weren't exclusive to a single retailer who may or may not stock the toys in a timely manner, if at all, in the case of both Earthspark Soundwave and Hashtag in my area. Out of five stores within 40 miles of my house, apparently only the Coeur D'Alene, ID store has had Soundwave, but not today. What's worse is that Hasbro Pulse doesn't have them either and their proprietary site should be the one exception to exclusivity, at the very least for members. My rant won't change anything, but it feels good to vent. It's just a bit frustrating when these things aren't available and meanwhile scalpers are charging 4-5 times MSRP for them when I should be able to walk into any of the three Targets closest to me and just pick up a copy or order one for delivery. Sigh.

    Man been forever since I've been around Coeur D'Alene, literally a hop, skip and a jump from Spokane. Currently the local walmarts are flowing with Retro Bee, Gears, older Earth Spark, AOTP Red Alerts and TFOne Bees both SS and Deluxe class. It's rather annoying. Target though out here in Texas has been getting stuffed with Bonecrushers.....that's rather funny in my opinion. Oh and really terrible SS Q's.

    So, the Coeur D'Alene Target didn't have Earthspark Soundwave. I called Target before going out there and they said they didn't have him, but I'd already gotten my wife's hopes up so we drove out to Cracker Barrel. And then we went to Target so I could look for myself. All they had were two copies of Twitch. Bummer. So I drowned my sorrow by visiting a second-hand LEGO store, buying a vintage Blacktron set and then venturing down the street to a second-hand toy store and buying a brand-new factory-sealed copy of FansToys' Hunk. The owner acquired a tidy collection of third party and official Transformers toys from a lady whose forty-something year old son died from cancer. RIP to a fellow fan. I'll give his copy of Hunk a good home until it's my turn to become one with the Matrix. Likewise. I used to see a lot of Retro Bumblebees, too, but now I mostly see Gears. I have the regular release and feel no need to double dip for a different face and deco. I do think it's cool that Hasbro's providing that option, although Retro Bee was pretty much Retro in name only. IMHO, they should've used SS86 Bee for this release as he's much closer to the G1 toy.

    Checking the new amount of range.

    FYI, none of the "Forgot my password" or "Contact Us" functions work right now. I tried both and the emails never come. Yes, I checked my junk folder. I got a new computer and couldn't log in until I extracted my passwords from my old computer's SSD.

    @derex3592 Thanks again for all the resources. I appreciate all the advice. @nightmareB4macross You sure do run a tight ship!
  27. mikeszekely
    I'll be playing too, the problem is finding time for it with Donkey Kong and Shadow Labyrinth also demanding my attention.

    Humbly chipping away at this custom 1/55. Telescoping shoulders for a tighter fighter.
