The KB Toys in our local mall had G1 Sideswipes falling off the shelf last night.

in Hasbro trademark land, if they don't use a characters name every 2 years ... they LOSE the rights. That's why you always see Megatron turn into Galvatron some way or another.

in times of despiration, Hasbro will name a figure ANYTHING.

Sometimes it make sense ...






other times, not ...




Hasbro FINALLY got "Shockwave" back, so they're excited to use it again.

this kinda breaks my heart ... my mom just emailed this to me

I was asked to participate to "Adopt a Family" this Christmas. The Vasquez
Family have twin 10 year old boys and 8 year old boy. They are living in a
Shelter.

All these 3 boys have Transformers on their wish list. I only need to get
one gift for one member of the family/ I thought if you have low priced
transformers that you don't want to keep, low means like $10 @. If I can
have one that low, I could probably can get 3 transformers for these 3
boys, but if expensive, I will only get one. Please let me know or if you
can help me find them at the Store.


coincidence or fate? I think I'm going to help too :run:

I'm guessing Cybertron ... If there's no specifics ... TRU is blowing out the Energon stuff. Then it becomes a matter of

Best bang for the buck vs newest toys around.

My guess would be Cybertron since they are too young for the older stuff.

I think we'd have to do a bit of both. Kids are probably watching Cybertron in the afternoons, and it would be sweet if they got current stuff.

I think there was divine intervention at work here...Mom's work is trying to adopt a family...kids want transformers...we're TF Plasti-crack heads...
