This is a day late and a dollar short. Well, more like a week late and hundreds of dollars short(er). That’s right, I have finally somewhat caught up from yet another amazing Botcon.

HasbroToyShop.com is doing a "Deal of the Day" promotion and today’s is a doozy. Today they have a huge selection of Transformers toys on sale for $10, but the savings don’t stop [...]
