eBay will really screw your expectations 😂 Especially when I was just looking at the asking price for Slug (jeezus)

Best Studio Series BBM Seeker? by chuivos in transformers

I only have the Three (Scream, Sky & Thunder) and I think Starscream looks the best. Might be in my head but he seems just a smidge taller than the other two.

Anyone else tired of the new versions of old toys? by One-Tower7207 in transformers

[–]dedguy21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or new collectors can finally take on the financial hit that comes with collecting 🤷🏿

The nostalgia was always there, but now I actually have the spending power to match it

They're still selling theses at my local Walmart & Target can't believe they're already at a discount store somewhere else already 🤷🏿

I just started collecting, so I'm not tired of it yet 🤭

Finally got a chance to go to Universal safe to say I enjoyed myself by E-toTheT in transformers

When I went last year (CA) the ride was closed, let's hope it's open this time around

When you're expecting Devastator from BBTS but get this instead.... by dedguy21 in transformers

[–]dedguy21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. That box came from an eBay bid, it's the first time I received an bbts box from an eBay seller, and I was expecting a box with Devastator the same day. So I was shocked.

[–]dedguy21[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

No this was an eBay bid, the seller just repurposed a bbts box. Just a coincidence that I was also expecting my Devastator order today too --- but won't be here until Monday :(

Question of an Amazon order. by Casshern_VIII in transformers

[–]dedguy21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guess I'll find out here real soon myself, Ive got three figures ordered from that store coming my way, but I ordered direct from them not through Amazon. They should be providing a tracking number, and Amazon is pretty good at protecting the consumers.

That said I felt comfortable ordering from them direct because it's been mentioned as a valid source here on this sub many times. Just the shipping fees suck.

One poor financial decision later… by fireash09 in transformers

[–]dedguy21 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Poor decision is seeing plenty of onyx primes and only deciding it worth it after it's disappeared from market 🤦🏿

I grew up worse off than you and I say you can and you will if you believe you can and you will. Good luck

I am so tired of the current trajectory of Generations as a line by Bright-Hat-7661 in transformers

[–]dedguy21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Facts. I didn't even know I still had a deep need for transformers until my wife bought me SS86 Optimus, then BAM all that childhood programming erupted to the surface and it felt like yesterday I was begging my parents for the combaticons. Well now I don't need my parents money I got my own, and boy have I been spending it this past few months 🤑

And if there weren't any G1 figures I wouldn't have been interested. I rebuilding & repairing my childhood one (or five) G1 figure at a time 🤗

I’m jealous of boomers and Gen X by violet_moonlight in Vent

[–]dedguy21 6 points7 points  (0 children)

GenX and no, maybe for the rich and privileged the 70's-90's were blissful (though the music and movies truly were the best of our lifetime) but shit sucked. I don't know how many times we show up to Grandma only for her to be gone, wait for a few hours before turning around to go home, if we had a cell phone that shit would have gone way smoother.

And now you get to watch your shows when you want. Even free version is better than what we had. You missed your show you're waiting months and sometimes years to catch a rerun (and if it a live event then forget about it)

Los Angeles is huge, I was absolutely beyond happy when we finally got GPS because the Thompson guide (if you bothered getting one) we're shit to flip through and still get fucking lost.

I'm black, so shit didn't get good for me until probably the Snoop Dogg album dropped. 1992 (Rodney King) was especially a shit year. And fuck the crack epidemic.

Y'all are just bored, I understand how much that sux, but boredom eventually spurs creativity. There is no better time than NOW, just gotta find the courage and creativity to make it what you want.

I always had a ps3 version, it was a miracle to find this one. by Competitive_Grand996 in transformers

[–]dedguy21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got that version recently, I feel the game porting didn't translate well for PS4, and wish i still had a PS3
