Awesome Shelfwarmers
So as the title suggests, what're some of our favorite TF's that we've seen shelfwarming, or otherwise sticking around longer than we'd have expected?
For example, I remember seeing quite a lot of Transmetal Waspinator on the shelves back in the day (almost as much so as Buzzsaw that I guess everyone ignored in favor of regular Waspinator which I never once found), and if it wasn't for the fact that he showed up during a time after my parents had basically told me I was "too old for toys", I'd have likely picked one up for the visual appeal alone. Well that, and the fact that I was always looking for Tarantulas (either the normal one or the TM), but never once managed to see him in stores kinda turned me off of everything else during those Wal-Mart or Superstore trips, but I always wondered why nobody wanted him.
More recently, I've been seeing quite a lot of Crankstart scouts hangin' around the shelves, and the same was the case with Hubcap not too long ago. Now, maybe it's just that I'm noticing these guys because they're my 2 favorites from the class, but it's kinda amusing to see the guys that I frantically made sure to buy when they were fresher couse I thought they'd vanish in a rather plentiful supply.
Can't really say I've got the same fetish for Drift or the other current victims, but sometimes we're lucky & it's just a blessing in disguise.

Haha, yeah.Dirge is easily one of the best abundant guys in my area, at least in terms of my tastes. Thrust is my favorite seeker by far (I don't really count Cyclonus in that group), but I haven't seen any of those for months, so I'm really glad to have picked mine up when I did, and paying 18 or something for it really wasn't that bad. WFC Soundwave is also everywhere in Kelowna, which ultimatly helped me come to my senses when I did.
Also to Pascal, I should've figured this thread would throw salt into people's wounds... hah
