TF Views

That has got to be a sale price. (Deluxes are ~$15, so a $20 Voyager is a steal.)

I got a second Vehicon last night. Walgreens has been stocking toys, including special aisle displays, for Christmas. Unsuprisingly, TFs are selling through before Halloween. The TFs at my local Walgreens are cleverly hidden behind a Disney Princess doll. There were two Vehicons and some other stuffhiding behind the Frog Princess. I left the doll as a hider. I might swap it out for a Pony, just to let whoever put the Disney doll there know that I have found there stash. I might go back for the other Vehicon next week. I dunno.

I do find it incredibly ridiculous/hilarious that they sculpted tiny fake wheels on the backs of his calves then didn’t even paint them.

Thanks for the warning. GDO Cliffjumper was on my "maybe" list. But, obvious facade parts are a non-starter for me, especially as Hasbro has been getting too comfortable about using them. "Prime" Wheeljack was an exception, and one that I will be keeping rare.

Nope, not a sale, Voyagers are $20 regular-sticker at my Targets too, just like they always have been. Do you...check the prices on toys when you're out and about?

The funniest part is they're not even 'obvious', there's about a third of a wheel sculpted tucked behind each calf, completely flush with the rest of the calf, then not even painted. It really is amazing that they even bothered, it coulda just been generic greebly details or even a flat panel and the toy would not have been affected at all.

Dude, if you've got enough Vehicons around you that you can think about customizing them, you are truly the envy of the Transformers fandom. Cutting those things up would only upset those people more, so I say go for it. What are you thinking about customizing them into?
