Lookee who showed up last night! Ironhide and Wreckage!!

After attending an awesome birthday party yesterday evening where I got my fill of ribs, salad, fruit, shrimp, corn on the cob, corn muffins, cheese, crackers, ice cream, and cake, my wife and I stopped by Wal-Mart (different location than previously mentioned) on the way home so I could check out their Transformers movie display.  It was bigger, yet still disappointing compared to Target (they are the official Transformers movie retailer after all).

I showed Scorponok to Zeatha and she recognized it from the trailers.  I then showed her Wreckage, whom I originally planned to buy at Target yesterday morning, but let another local collector have him since I wasn't sure at the time how far I was on my budget.  I also showed her Ironhide and explained that he was the one I returned to Target so I could afford Megatron.  Being the sweetheart that she is, she told me to go ahead and pick up Ironhide and Wreckage.  Man, she is the best.  She spoils me. :)

Now then, Wreckage is really neat.  I love his Automorph feature and in robot mode he looks really bad ass, especially his face and head sculpt.  He looks mad and ready to rip something apart.  For a guy not in the movie or video games, he's a lot better aesthetically, to me, than some the main characters.

Ironhide.  Great vehicle mode.  Great robot mode.  Transformation is a bit wicked in places and his middle chest panel doesn't lock into anything.  His legs have a very nice Automorph feature to get them where they need to be during transformation.  His biggest draw, for me anyway, are his cannons.  I was worried I'd have 4 missiles to keep track of, but they stay put until you combine the cannons into a BFG.  Then, the buttons on the right cannon act to launch the missiles from the left cannon.  It's a very cool design.

Still no luck finding movie Titaniums last night or today.  I'm sure they'll pop up sooner or later though.
