Transformers G1 Reissue Warpath

I can finally knock another figure off my want and watch list.Funny that Toy Box brought up the fact that most of the time ,brick and mortar stores never have what we're looking for.Well,this time I had no intentions on picking up any figures.What was supposed to be just a quick dog food run to the grocery store turned into a fruitful toy hunt.I don't think Warpath released with the initial wave of minicon reissues,as he was nowhere to be found during that time.I remembered seeing some Walmart reissue Warpath listings on eBay recently  and decided to quickly scan the toy aisles before exiting with my dog food and other miscellaneous items.Sure enough,there he was!

Isn't that card art glorious!It's like Warpath's reaching out to grab the action figure before you get a chance to break It out of It's plastic confines! 



Warpath was one of the few Transformers I owned as a kid and I absolutely loved him!Maybe It had  to do with the fact that he was a tank and me being a huge G.I. Joe freak,well,It just made sense to appreciate Warpath that much more.


Slowly but surely,I am recouping my childhood Transformers figures!

      I thought the same thing Fuji.I always felt like they went hand and hand ,especially since both sported similar color schemes.

      Wal-Mart is where I have been looking, but find nothing but empty pegs. Gears is the one I am looking for the most. Had that guy as a kid and he was always one of my fave Autobots!

The other day ,my better half and I had the chance to traverse our local mall early In the day.I hate going to malls at peak hours or on the weekends.The crowds are just too damn cool for me.Long story short,our mall now has a toy store! I couldn't believe my eyes.From a far It looked like It was going to be some artsy fartsy place with educational toys ,wooden blocks and model kits,but no!This place had pretty much everything collectors go for nowadays.The name of the store Is "Go!,Toys and Games" and I can honestly say that I've never heard of It before.Everything was a dollar or two extra ,but that's not too bad considering how ridiculously expensive modern toys are In hobby and toy shops these days.I really hope this place sticks around. There Is a nice mix of everything.Marvel Legends,Star Wars  to blind bags to Funko figs.On top of that there are tons of board games   and books. WTF? Yes! 3 3/4 Marvel Legends!!!!!Not alot thou

My last "Merry Christmas To Me" post was going to be of Marvel Legends Spider-Man animated cartoon series figure that I thought I was getting a great deal on. It turns out the figure was a bootleg. $30 down the drain and a fake Spider Man figure in the trash. I didn't even bother trying to get a refund from the seller. I'll chalk it up to a loss and keep it moving. So today I figured I'd  treat myself to something dope in the toy aisles at my local Walmart and found this!  I'm not sure if this is a reissue or what but It was the last one on the pegs and so I grabbed it. Now I can't get that damned theme song out of my head.
