Initial case breakdowns of some movie figures I would possibly be interested in:

Transformers Movie 4 Generations Deluxe 2014 Wave 1 - 8 units per case

• 2x Scorn
• 2x Slug
• 2x Crosshairs
• 2x High Octane Bumblebee

Transformers Movie 4 Generations Voyager - 4 units per case

• 2x Evasion Mode Optimus Prime
• 2x Grimlock

Transformers Movie 4 Generations Leader - 2 units per case

• 1x Optimus Prime
• 1x Grimlock

But why are they cluttering up the shelves with this other stuff that usually shelfwarms hard?

12' Titan Heroes - 8 units per case
16" Titans Guardians 2014 Wave 1 - 2 units per case
Construct-A-Bots Dinobot Assortment 2014 Wave 1 - 8 units per case
Construct-A-Bots Dinobot Riders - 12 units per case
Construct-A-Bots Dinobot Warriors 2014 Wave 1 - 4 units per case

One-Step Changers 2014 Wave 1 - 12 units per case
Power Battlers Assortment 2014 Wave 1 - 8 units per case

non-movie Construct-a-bots already warming the shelves at my local stores now....

the latter part of the stuff I usually see lots ending up at Winners and Marshalls

Cool! He's quite the Blues Man, from what I've seen and heard.

My girlfriend loves him from way back in the Fry & Laurie days (she's not that old, just loves old shows lol), so we're going.

[jjwankenobi]

He was super hilarious as the various Georges in Blackadder too.

[kirbenvost]

Oh yeah. I'm a fan of pretty much everything he does. Stephen Fry too!

He's the best voyager since Springer!

Oh man, Spencer is leaving the storefront? That sucks, but I wish him well. I've been buying MPs from him since MP-1 back in 2004 at his old Rupert location. Followed that store (in it's many incarnations) ever since. The guy even went to bat for me when I got a defective Coronation Starscream. Stand-up dude, as far as I'm concerned.

Yeah, Spencer and A3U are alright. Received a fugly Luke Skywalker Jedi Knight mini-bust as a thank you gift for emceeing a wedding. No receipt, but Spencer allowed me to exchange it for store credit at their Oakridge location no questions asked.

Hope he's moving onto an occupation that's less prone to all the unwarranted hateration from these boards that he's received over the years.

By the way I'm willing to cut a sweeeet deal for any local boardie interested in my loose MP-8 Grimlock.

PM me, maybe?

[kirbenvost]

lol that damn song, man...

Yeah, best of luck to Spencer. I know some people weren't pleased about their dealings with him but he was always nice to me and there were a couple similar instances where he helped me out. So I really do wish him the best.

For those out of the loop, Spencer is still part of A3U. He is just going to Hong Kong to run things there, and to help make A3U even better.
