That is an excellent idea. Oh by the way @Leave a Whisper it seems that CPP has a new boyfriend. I will have to figure out a place to post a photo of them together.
Do show!

I just found an original Soundwave not long ago in a bag of TF at the flea market. He had some of his tapes, though not RazorBeak, but didn't have his accessories. I gave him to my middle little sister and she completely flipped out. He was in better shape than mine, but mine was a present, so he's super special. Sadly, he's tubbed out. I don't even know where at this point, which is really making me sad.
I call all my toys that are put up "tubbed out" , it's like Time Out in a tub. Because they've been bad.

Poor Houston! We use to have so many great thrift stores. There were several I went to and found fantastic items. My favorite one caught on fire during Harvey. Oh and another favorite flooded so badly. All they have been able to get back into the store once they repaired structural damage is clothing. There are no toys at all. Our Good Wills do not have many toys at all. Just plushes mainly and children's books. I don't venture out too far, so I have no idea if my other favorite one is Pasadena has flooded, but I would guess it probably did. We have lost so much because of Harvey. So, right now I don't have access to good second hand places except for this really fun store in the Houston Heights by my house. The antique store on the other side of the highway usually had a toy fair about once or twice a year and they have good prices at the fair, but not thrift store prices. We checked one thrift store in an area close to where I picked up my handicap car tag yesterday and they just had nothing. It is because, so many thousands of Houstonians have lost everything and they are not able to donate. It is like they need donations. So, I know other states and cities initially sent in donations to Houston, but all of that has been taken by flood victims. I suppose it will take a long time to get these business's back where they were if they do not fail first.
All my G3's are tubbed out because Vinny won't stop attacking them and carrying them around the house.
I found out a lot of the thrift stores are discontinuing the practice of selling loose toys aside from plushes or 'new in the box' items because of choking hazards and toy recalls. They don't wanna risk lawsuits. That's what my friend Bruce at Goodwill told me anyhoo. What a bummer. They apparently load up boxes with toys and sell them en masse at auction sites, sight unseen. So a box might be full of treasure, or more than likely... full of junk.
Now that I think of Transformers and naughtiness, I have a great mental image of Megatron being forced to sit in the Bay Boy Corner. Time out for you, Megs!
