I know, seems like a sinister plan, but as luck would have it we usually visit the wifey's folks in NJ for a few weeks around July 4. I'll admit I did a happy dance when I first heard the show would be in Providence, though.

Swoop, Bumblebee, and the tapes arrived today in great shape - thanks again for coordinating.

Really, how much effort would it have taken to put Bumblebee in properly? I've spent the better part of an hour trying to figure out a way to move his head and legs into place without damaging the bubble. Nada.

I was bored at work yesterday afternoon so I listed another Alt. Camshaft & Mirage with a BIN of $49.99 each. Mirage sold within minutes and Camshaft sold a couple hours later. :run:

it's THE BIG ONE.

With all the movie hype and TF's coming to the mainstream ... this is supposed to be the biggest and baddest Botcon of all time.

Botcon is being held close to the Hasbro HQ too.

There were 2 of those like that. :hs:

After randomly packing, looks like you got the other one.

That Mirage will be the next Swerve. If you have any left, hold onto them for the long term win.

The UM / Skywarp sets completely sold out at $13.98. They were bumped down to $9.98 about a week after the inital markdown, but I doubt anything survived.

The Grimlock disappearing is extremely unusual. He should be pretty much everywhere.
