i do that anyway.

my RiD Megatron typically sits on my tower in either bat mode or Dragon mode, whilst my Bayformers Prime, Bumblebee and Sideswipe stand in robot mode on my desk...

when i had my RiD Autobots on display, tehy were always in robot mode. RiD Prime and Magnus were king-size PITA to transform.

I agree about DOTM Shockwave.  I grabbed him this weekend at TRU for $20.  

The original Shockwave was one of my first Transformers.  He had an unfortunate meeting with a screw driver, and was never the same after.  When I saw the new one, I had to have him.  It's not the same as the original, but at least I have my Shockwave again.

I picked up the Captain America Strikefire Armored Vehicle, it's actually not bad, would make a great Joe or Cobra custom, it can hold two figs, comes with a decent motorcycle, the Captain America figure it comes with is not the greatest, but it's ok. The only thing I'm not a fan of is the spring launch missiles, but they're on every toy now. I also got US Agent, and Crossbones. Next up for me, Red Skull and the Off Road Avenger vehicle.

If anybody's interested in the 8 inch cloth Mego-style Retro-Action DC Superheroes, my TRU just brought back out an old case of wave 1 and 2 (the Superman/Green Arrow and Batman/Aquaman series respectively). Wave 4 (Shazam/Martian Manhunter series) is still on the shelves and moving slowly, so it was a big surprise to me.
I'm buying these for someone else and HOPE they bring out wave 3 (the Wonder Woman/Flash series) as it never hit the shelves before.

Found some Power Rangers Samurai at TRU yesterday.
They're pretty decent 4" figures. Now if only Bandai could learn about arm swivel.
