They haven't restocked Alternators here since before Christmas. It's odd, sightings are coming in from all over, within the last week or so. Have things been picking up on any of your ends?
-
I'm sold.
-
I've heard that carrying in new shipments of Alternators has been left up to individual stores. Mine choose not to carry them.

Well... It's... not bad, I guess. The dirty look, well, I bought the Takara version of Prime, if that's any evidence of my standing. His head really bothers me.... Is his neck REALLY that skinny, or is that just the lighting?

HHAAHAH That's f***in' great, roxman.... I just picked up the Jedi Starfighter kit from Lego. I have to say the design's growing on me. ...and legos now have pink skin instead of the classic yellow?

It's not just your area. Wal-Mart apears to have taken Alternators off it's official modular, so it's up to the heads of the toy departments at hte individual stores to decide if they want to continue buying new Alts. I haven't seen too many stores around here, bringing in new ones. My local Wally World doesn't have a space for them, any more. Considering how rarely I've seen Alts at TRU, and that all the Miejers that I have access to still have mountains of Smokscreens, it looks I'll be buying my Alts online, from now on. That's how I got my two Deadstreakers. Wonderful... so I guess it's off to overpriced E bay I go.. -

It's not you, it's practically every Wal-Mart and Target in the U.S. Here in the L.A. area, Alternators newer than Autobot Hound are hard to come by (except Swindle, as nobody cares about him). Last week, I drove as far as Newbury Park (40+ miles away from Burbank) just to buy an extra Meister (and I was actually out looking for Grimlock). (But then again, Solscud007 will tell you how far he drove just to get Windcharger...) I'd take a Swindle.. Hell, with Alternators, I've turned into a completist. -

Have Wal-Marts recently forsaken anything newer than Meister, or does Gainesville just hate me? -

Is it the same reason why Jazz is no longer called Jazz Honda owns it now. It'll be the name of a small, subcompact, I believe. the Honda Jazz/Fit is not a will be but already exists. Imagine a 4 door version of the Honda Civic Si hatch back that we have here in the states. Picture's not working for me, man. Ooh, right. I was referring to a US release. SOrry 'bout that. -

Seeing as he's 26, I'd get him the Yamato? Why? I think it's better for a more mature collector.. and besides, it'll get him started on the Yamato addiction, maybe urge him on to get a 1/48...

First I've ever heard of this. Can you cite a source? Personally, I believe the anime ending was very well done. The anime didn't try to tell the whole of Guts' life, but rather a specific series of events; specifically how he became the Black Swordsman (who we are introduced to in the first episoded). That's totally official..? Give me time.

How do YOU watch series anime?
GreenGuy42 replied to Mechamaniac's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Recently, I just pop in an episode here and there, but I've been slowly falling out of anime. I used to watch as much as I could stand in a day, though. -
Well, Berserk was, admittedly, cut short due to finances. It's a pity, too. The Manga was impressive. EDIT: Wasn't Hellsing in that boat, too? From what I recall, the (OVA?) was quite enjoyable. IIRC, the person behind the manga decided he did not like the animated treatment given to his work, so he cancelled all the further releases.

I don't have a stench, my lawn is messy since my mower doesn't work and having to fight w/my weedwhacker to get it started, I am overweight and yes we have two cars, atleast they are parked on our driveway rather than the street or lawn... like the rest of my neighborhood has done... each house has atleast almost 4 cars enough to fit 2 on a single lane driveway, one on the lawn, the other on the street. But will damn them to hell, if I see one of these fools at my local wallymart or kmart... trying to scalp and sell on ebay. I too want these new alternators, and it is getting harder and harder to find them... so far I got the first 5... Silver Streak, Smokecreen, Hound, Deadend and Sideswipe... still haven't found Swindle, Tracks or Grimlock. Well, then, you don't fit all the pre-reqs.. I'm just really sick of these folks, so I tend to be rather bitter when I speak of them. -

Check the scalper's dens in your neighborhood. They're normally characterized by a putrid stench, unkept lawns, with cars parked out front covered in witty sayings bumper stickers. Oh, and they're normally very, very overweight. I saw a guy pick up the whole lot of Alternators after I got my Tracks.. told me he was selling them on E bay... guh.. loser. -

hey you took my idea!!! haha I was thinking the same thing You know, the front skirt looks easy enough, and I can even epoxy over the hood holes. I'm kind of worried about the side skirts, though. -

Poor, poor supra bot. He's got a nice big hole in the center of his shield. I'll snag if it I see it. I'm sure I could remove the wing, repaint the car, and maybe file down the body kits to a more reasonable level. I love Supras, so it deserves that much love. -
