    They only had Machine Men at my local Kmart. Luckily I prefer them over Transformers -- plus Machine Men was a better cartoon overall as well!

    You could at least do a plausible April fools joke.

    I went to my local Kmart and I found a Jetfire! Adding him to my collection.
    I'll update this when I'm needing help finding particular figures

    I appreciate the time and effort and I am surprised a Kmart let you walk in with merchandise and set it up. Ten again it would’ve been nice to see a somewhat filled tf section once more...

    Behind the scenes...

    A few people seem to think that I've used Photoshop. I think people forget that I'm incapable of using any graphics program that's any more complicated than MS Paint. So here's what happened.

    * I got together with another TF collector who brought along some of his boxed G1 toys. We swung by the place of another collector who lent us some of his sealed G1 toys, although he wasn't free to join us in our shenanigans.

    * We then drove to a nearby Kmart, placed these toys on the shelves and then took photos.

    * We scanned a TLK Leader Class Megatron and then swapped it for Optimus Prime. Of course, G1 boxed toys have the barcode on the back of the box and you can see that I'm scanning the bottom. This is because scanning the barcode itself did bring up an "item not found" prompt on the scanner. Also, I decided to deliberately scan the bottom (as opposed to say scanning the Robot Point) as another clue that this is fake.

    There was one photo that was modified via MS Paint, and that is the photo of me scanning G1 Optimus Prime. Here's the before and after shot.

    Anyone else keeping count of how many times he tries to do April a Fools, but gets the time wrong?

    My partner in crime as we were loading the toys onto a trolley.
