Managed to score the Chaos set, and my friend agreed to pick it up! That's one thing I don't have to worry about!

I saw that new Primus today. Shocked to see it is 150 bucks.

Old toys + electronics can drive up the price, especially when they weren't designed with today's budget concerns in mind.

They should have just stripped the electronics out, that probably would have shaved off a noticeable amount off the price

Then they'd be selling a giant hollow ball that doesn't do anything and half of whose action features don't work.

Joe Dante put a story about a woman finding her dead father dressed as Santa Claus in her chimney in his children's movie (Gremlins is PG).

Kids need to stop being pussies at some point.

Gremlins is a bad example of your point because it's one of the reasons PG-13 was created.

PG-13 like the 2007 movie? The system works!

TFCon update:
Secured a primo spot for getting into the dealer room thanks to Strangehamster (thanks bud!). Snagged the purple Calidus, the sweet yellow Terragis truck, AND the Corbot V bundle of Allicons.

So far, so good.

Chosen Prime does have a pretty impressive display:

I was looking at pics of the Chosen Prime booth marvelling at the outrageous prices before realising it was all in Beaver Bucks.

How much is the MMC Yellow Truck going for?

Most of those things but also not tying up my personal identity in the things I like to the point where someone doing a thing becomes a personal affront to me and then I catch a probation for hilariously overreacting to it :v:

Remold of their Tarn, apparently.

Iron Factory's combiner looks loving sick, I'll upload a picture later. Apparently their announcement was a Sunstreaker/Sideswipe mold, there's painted protos as well.

I'm having a blast at TFcon. Found the toys I was looking for within 10 minutes and was given a CW Shockwave for basically being from Iceland. Pretty rad. And found couple of Trailbreaker Kre-O figures my friend lacks.

All in all, been great, even though I haven't met with the other goons.

His IDW appearance was just his Prime design.

This Bulkhead isn't based on anything.
