It's only murder if they find the body, otherwise it's just a missing persons case.

so light yagami is a BAD role model? but ive already got a death note...
@  PlutoniumBoss : (23 January 2021 - 11:43 PM)

Do you always model proper behavior after anime characters?
@  Tm_Silverclaw : (23 January 2021 - 06:34 PM)

Don't forget Yu-Gi-Oh and the Millennium items.
@  NotVeryKnightly : (23 January 2021 - 02:51 PM)

There was a five season anime with wearing relics as the premise.
@  PlutoniumBoss : (23 January 2021 - 01:16 PM)

You don't wear relics, you enshrine them.
@  wonko the sane? : (22 January 2021 - 06:23 PM)

Wrong holey... and probably the wrong way to dress too.
@  Rycochet : (22 January 2021 - 06:09 PM)

If your underwear is old and holy, it is considered a relic and should be protected with your life.
@  wonko the sane? : (22 January 2021 - 02:04 PM)

That's the argument we keep making: but I still need to wait till feb 8th minimum to replace my holey underwear.
@  TM2-Megatron : (22 January 2021 - 01:57 PM)

Personally I'm glad Ontario wasn't so misguided as to try to define what is or isn't "essential" for big box stores like Walmart to sell. If someone is stuck at home literally for weeks and unable to go out, who's to say a new TV or game console isn't essential (if only for one's sanity) if theirs breaks down?
@  TM2-Megatron : (22 January 2021 - 01:55 PM)

Although fortunately, Ontario's daily cases and positivity rate has been on a steady decline for the past week or so; if they can get the vaccinations back on track, there is some hope.
@  TM2-Megatron : (22 January 2021 - 01:53 PM)

And as far as Canada's lockdowns go, I'm guessing none of them will end until late March, or perhaps the beginning of April. What small businesses that might be left at that point will be allowed to open for their going out of business sales.
@  TM2-Megatron : (22 January 2021 - 01:52 PM)

Unfortunately the CEO of Target Canada made more money by running the company into the ground than he ever would have had he made it a success, so there was zero incentive to succeed.
@  TM2-Megatron : (22 January 2021 - 01:51 PM)

Target made some serious mistakes when they came into Canada. They focused on opening like 150+ stores within a 2 year timeframe and had no online infrastructure whatsoever; their website literally only contained legal blurbs and a store locator... lacking even the ability to see what they sold in stores, or if it was in stock and, if so, where. They should have started with 1/3 the number of stores with a full online experience including online shopping and inventory checking
@  wonko the sane? : (22 January 2021 - 12:35 PM)

See; quebec is under a new lockdown, have been since the 26th. It's supposed to end the 8th of february, but probably won't. Stores are only supposed to sell necessities (in deference to the stores which are closed.), but the quebec government made no effort define what counts as a "necessity", only punished them for getting it wrong. So I can buy all the candy I want, but not underwear, boots, winterwear, small appliances. Hell, my brother had to explain why he wanted a FUSE when he needed to fix his stove shortly before new years.
@  wonko the sane? : (22 January 2021 - 12:31 PM)

Targets don't exist in canada anymore. They lasted like 3 years before abandoning the market. But even if they WERE still here: they would be under the same poorly defined restrictions as walmart.
@  -LittleAutob... : (22 January 2021 - 12:10 PM)

Target's better-
@  wonko the sane? : (22 January 2021 - 07:51 AM)

HA! my walmarts can't even sell underwear. There's no clearances going on up here.

Or is the wound the Earth healing.
@  unluckiness : (18 January 2021 - 03:32 AM)

Healing is just destroying the wound
@  PlutoniumBoss : (17 January 2021 - 06:08 PM)

But eventually destroys everything.
@  tigerhawk : (17 January 2021 - 05:03 PM)

Heals many wounds

Covid?
@  wonko the sane? : (16 January 2021 - 09:50 PM)

At this point, if I'm going to die then it won't be the wait what killed me. It didn't help any, mind you, but it's not what got me.
@  PlutoniumBoss : (16 January 2021 - 09:37 PM)

Technically we are all literally dying to play with our next figure.
@  wonko the sane? : (16 January 2021 - 05:36 PM)

I am figuratively dying to play with that cheetor.
@  wonko the sane? : (16 January 2021 - 04:39 PM)

Still waiting for my box from BBTS to arrive.
@  tigerhawk : (16 January 2021 - 04:29 PM)

Kingdoms is fantabulous and it's only the first wave.
@  tigerhawk : (12 January 2021 - 12:10 PM)

My Super Collection Megatron always had two left legs and I just discovered my Thrilling 30 Crosscut has two right hips.
@  Nevermore : (11 January 2021 - 07:56 PM)

Fortunately, it's only Netflix Hound, so not really much of a loss here.
@  Nevermore : (11 January 2021 - 07:55 PM)

So it's been a while since I've had a misassembled Transformers toy.

That’s amazing. For that price, I’d put him on a shelf in that box.

I found a 250cc Craftsman leaf blower on clearance at Lowe’s for 10.95. Love this time of year.

Prices vary by store. A different store in his same/nearby town may have a different, higher, price.

 

I snagged one last week at $23, only because that was the only store that had any left. I intended to hold out for a lower price.

 

Still nice.

I know the Walmart up the road from me had a couple 2 weeks ago.  I wonder if they're still there?  Might have to make a drive up there and have a look.  Who knows, maybe they'll have some SS86 toys too.

Yeah, I'd be surprised if very many people are THIS lucky at all....

 

But for him, at least, that's a major win.

Found one today while looking for SS86. Not sure where he came from. There had been one on the shelf a week ago, but he was gone when I stopped in earlier this week. Saw him, laying there, and sure enough he was less than $2.
I finally got rid of that big white box.

It's bizarre. It seems like he can be literally anywhere in either the $20-$24 range or in the $1-$3 range.

Sweet Jesus.  I had no problem paying the full $40 CDN for him.  That's freakin' nuts.  Wish I could count on crazy clearances like this, but that's really more of a luck-of-the-draw/"you had to be there" scenario in my experience.  I haven't seen Blaster on the shelves in months.

Yeah I was holding out for a clearance, or closeout retailer deal on ER Prime, knowing I would get a second chance at him with Kingdom. Looks like I struck out on that. Saw a Kingdom Op the other day, that I may nab today.

Just got back from my local Wal-Mart and they had a few but they were $20.  Not a bad deal necessarily, but I already have one and didn't need to double-dip.  Still, if it had been south of $10, I would've grabbed one just for messing around with.
