And yesterday I stopped off randomly at a Walgreens and found Sludge! Finally I have completed my Power of the Primes Dinobot collection. Whew!

Anybody else still load these forums up occasionally and look for anything going on? I probably stop by here 2 or 3 times a week.

I found a Snarl late last month. Finally. Now just Sludge is left.

Wow. Those look great! Kind of making me want to get a new Joe toy. It's been a while. When was the last time any of you bought anything GI Joe? Even something vintage?

Wow got lucky! I went in to Wal Mart two days ago to get something completely unrelated but of course checked the toy aisle. The Transformers section was practically empty except for one lonely Snarl just hanging there. So bizarre. It had a crease in the card but I don't care because I open mine anyways. Lucky day for me! Now if I can just find a Sludge I will have them all. Unrelated note, what's up with this MISPSTeve guy spamming the Transformer's board? I went looking for this thread to post an update and it was already buried 3 or 4 pages deep!

Yeah I am on more than I would like. I work on a PC most of the day and the internet is a constant distraction. (This post is case in point.) I have gotten a bit better about my phone and social media though. It can get overwhelming, depressing, and just so distracting from the things I would rather be doing. I have my moments where I will post or thumb scroll facebook or Instagram, but I try not to obsess over it very much or dedicate TOO much time to it. I do enjoy messenger and texting as a way to keep in touch with friends. I would say I use that more than anything anymore. Honestly the concept of "online" has become so abstract I don't even really know how to answer that. I mean if you mean sitting in a chair surfing the web, that's one thing. Playing online games? Or does having my phone in my pocket and getting and receiving messages from Facebook Messenger count?

Just this past week Grimlock has been popping up in Lexington everywhere. Meijer's had like 6 of them the other day. I lucked upon him months ago and never saw him again until last week. Last week I saw him in quantities at 3 stores. So yeah, Hopefully!

I'll give it a chance. So far I have been mostly pleased with Netflix original content.

Anyone having any luck finding these last two dinobots? I have barely seen any of this wave here in KY. I think maybe 2 times I have seen a scraggling leftover on a peg that indicates this wave has at least made an appearance in my town. But for the most part every store I go to is just filled with Jazz and other pegwarmers from the previous wave. What gives?

OOH I bet FYE still has some I didn't think of that!

Howdy Blackmada! Glad to see you are still around and doing well!

Oh that is neat! I would have never thought about checking Barnes and Nobles. Perhaps I will swing by there today and see what I find.

Does anybody here collect the ReACtion figures? I have seen them in stores several times and always thought they were great, but I never had a compelling reason to buy them. Just recently I got a shed that has allowed me to reclaim my garage as a play space so I have been trying to decorate it and get it set up with fun stuff. I found a perfect place where hanging a few Reaction figures would really fit the theme, so now I find myself as usual, late in the game trying to track them down. What brick and mortar stores sell them, does anyone know?

Thanks for sharing Joe. Sounds like your father did a good job raising you. I wish the best for you and your dad. You will be in my thoughts as well.

Bring back more old style Joes. That's what I think people really want. But maybe I am being presumptuous. I have never gotten to go to a Joecon. I got to go to Botcon one year but that was because it was less than 5 miles from my house!
