Spoiler: TGWP It's becoming increasingly clear that Megatron's entire empire has the staying power of wet tissue paper. I'd say it's probably satisfying for Jazz to know that... but he cares too much about the average person, I think, and when Megatron goes down, things are probably going to be bad for the Autobots and neutrals.
@Dist I follow them(?) and I still have no idea. But yes their stuff is so good. I think Brave Shall Heed the Call is probably my absolute favorite. So much space opera and dystopia, mmm.
...... CDRW song.... Spoiler: lyrics "A Quiet Mind" A slow strangle with your feet on the floor I've got 14 angels and we're sleeping alone In the back of a cave, where the rest of us go To feel normal I call baby up. Leave me alone. I'm in pain but I won't let you Band-Aid my wound I am mad at a stage where I can't even handle my own (can't even handle my) Give me a quiet mind and I I love you You give me a quiet mind and I I love you Until the end Until the end Give me strength to be kind, to combine All the good things in life that are so hard to find But I have and I won't let them go like I do with my friends (my friends) Still hearing voices, from front, from behind They're the reasons I choose when to live, how to die When to cast, when to reel When to buy, when to steal When to fiend for the friends that taught you Being inappropriate will Give me a quiet mind and I I still love you You give me a quiet mind and I I love you You give me a quiet (quiet) mind and I I love you You give me a quiet mind and I (you give me) And I love you Until the end Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh edit: WAIT no THIS is the MOST cd→rw song Spoiler: lyrics Here is a heart Here is a heart I made it for you so take it Battered and braised Grilled and sauteed Just how you like it Like it You know I live to fill you up Blood of my blood Dripping with love I bring you a thing you need most Silent between Supplies and machines I hang in the corners like a ghost You know I live to be seen through No better way that I can see To spend all the time while you're asleep When holding your hands inside of mine Mmm I wanna be here and nowhere else Rationing off bits of myself So I can crumble at your side Sleep like the dead Through the noise in your head While monitors click and whirr and glow I'm with you all day And I still would stay Tomorrow and onward just this close You know I live to keep you safe Oh No better way that I can see To spend all the time while you're asleep When holding your hands inside of mine Mmm I wanna be here and nowhere else Rationing off bits of myself So I can crumble at your side I can't explain it but I have to try If you evaporate the seas will rise 'Til they devour the sky Here is a heart Here is a heart I made it for you so take it Battered and braised Grilled and sauteed Just how you like it Like it No better way that I can see To spend all the time while you're asleep When holding your hands inside of mine I wanna be here and nowhere else Rationing off bits of myself So I can crumble at your side Also: whirl song Spoiler: lyrics "Bird Song" Well I didn't tell anyone, but a bird flew by. Saw what I'd done. He set up a nest outside, and he sang about what I'd become. He sang so loud, sang so clear. I was afraid all the neighbours would hear, So I invited him in, just to reason with him. I promised I wouldn't do it again. But he sang louder and louder inside the house, And no I couldn't get him out. So I trapped him under a cardboard box. stood on it to make him stop. I picked up the bird and above the din I said "That's the last song you'll ever sing". Held him down, broke his neck, Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget. But in my dreams began to creep that old familiar tweet tweet tweet I opened my mouth to scream and shout, I waved my arms and flapped about. But I couldn't scream and I couldn't shout, couldn't scream and I couldn't shout. I opened my mouth to scream and shout waved my arms and flapped about But I couldn't scream I couldn't shout, The song was coming from my mouth. From my mouth, From my mouth, From my mouth. From my mouth, From my mouth, From my mouth, From my mouth. From my mouth. From my mouth. From my mouth. From my mouth. From my mouth, From my mouth, From my mouth, From my mouth.
Target has little IDW grab bags and I got a tiny Wheeljack in mine. LOOK AT HOW SMALL AND GRUMPY HE IS
The next time we're there, I'm gonna see about getting a few more. I'm really hoping to get the Starscream and Rodimus ones too.
I don't know if you've got any supermarkets with trading card sections, but that's where we found the blind bags. Gamestop and Hot Topic have 'em too, so there might be some at any gaming stores around up there.
Upside of work: I can afford to buy all the bitty transformers my heart desires, probably Downside of work: I have no time to find out where the bitty transformers are D8 Closest Target is ~half an hour away, and I... do not trust the game shops in my area.
Update: Am at Target. Have not found grab bags in the trading card section, but have found Combiner Wars figures in the toy section They have Wheeljack. Help me
i am currently walking past the hollowed out corpse of a former target. you all need to check your american privilege, i'm starting to feel oppressed
I struck out at target :( But I remember seeing these in my local hot topic a few months ago, so I'm going to swing through the mall tomorrow. I'm kicking myself, because at the time, I hadn't READ exrid, so I was like yeah yeah whatever, where are the robots I care about. You fool. You fool. These are the robots you care about! I saw Wheeljack, but I didn't get him, because it would bother me to have only one fifth of a combiner set. But! I did get myself the tiniest, cutest Strongarm!!
Came to my senses after seeing a supah shiny Skywarp had a price tag of about $45, at which point my self-preservation instincts kicked in and I ran like my life (and my grocery budget) depended on it But if they'd had a Starscream or even better, a Nautica....I feel like I dodged a bullet...
