Well originally it was just the RX-78-2 and the Astray. I've since picked up the Exia, Artemis and Barbatos, and just yesterday I found the Wing.

Really? I'd given up on that.

Found it! The only one I'm missing of the 10 is DS, but I can live with that. Those incomplete Zakus were running havok with my OCD.

Re: Dollarama Sighting

I was in a Dollarama today in Langley, BC (for anyone here it was the Murrayville one in the lot with the IGA and Quiznos) and they had like 4 or 5 of the core Bumblebee-movie Ravage on a peg in the toy section. I double checked to make sure that they were the only actual honest-to-Primus Transformers figures amongst the various "car robo" type knockoffs.



There's also what looks like a kitschy nick-knack series of tiny little figurines packed in tiny fake boxes approximating a G1 figure box which itself is then encased in a clear plastic display stand. So it's like a little $3 miniature verison of how someone might display MISB figures. I didn't get any becuase it only looked like they had Starscream and 1 Autobot that might've been Bumblebee and I didn't want to rifle through the set (it wasn't just Transformers either) and the bot figurine itself looked very cheap like the kind of blind-bagged tiny $1 PVC that they'd sold in the past.

Worlds Smallest Transformers. Official products. Little articulation but kind of cool. Usually Prime, Bee, Soundwave, Starscream and Arcee. Some come in cube packages with full (although mini) comics.

I had given up too and got the remaining 3 I needed off Ebay because I couldn't handle having such an incomplete lineup and the dollar stores were bare.

Re: Dollarama Sighting

I haven't actually taken any of my Gundams out of their packaging. When I want an actual Gundam figure I usually get High Grades. I just figured that given how cheap they were at Dollarama it couldn't hurt to pick them up. Once they're not being sold at retail anymore I might see what I could get for them, and the fact that I've got a complete Zaku set will probably help with that.
