Re: The Hunt: Love it or Hate it?
I always been a fan of the hunt.
New to Transformers but a long time collector.. I strongly believe in supporting local comic and toy stores so that they exist for younger kids. I grew up riding my bike to Phoenix Comics in Calgary every weekend and i found it such a magical place.. so I have a rule that i do not buy anything online... but its getting harder and harder to maintain that rule (staring at that sky lynx on toyrus.ca)
Most online exclusives I have to find at comic con or mini cons or facebook... it can be annoying but just plugging in your credit card and searching amazon takes all the fun out of collecting. In fact i recently gave up the funko pop game because of everything just being exclusives to some website with 30 dollar shipping.
Sorry not meant to be a rant.. just my collecting parameters (it also helps the wallet from becoming bare) and the reasons behind it.
