Just a quick post here. Was at the local Aeon department store and happened to stroll by the candy/small toy section. Lookie what I found.

| SnapTrap!!! |
A miniature version of my favorite transformer of all time, Snap Trap!!! I guess he's called Turtler here. Snap Trap is the leader of the
Seacons, 6 sea-themed Transformers (Decepticons) that combine to form Piranacon. I got him in the late 1980's and being a huge turtle fan, Snap Trap was my favorite. Sadly, I think my mom recently disposed of him while preparing the house for the market. My older cousin didn't even remember the Seacons! I guess that makes him a fake Transformers fan.

| 3 Seacons |

| 3 more Seacons |
In any event, Japanese candy stores/departments are now carrying miniature versions of the Seacons now. From plenty of experience with toys here, I believe that candy sections at supermarkets would be the best place to find the Seacons. At only 300 yen (about 3 bucks) apiece, the great Piranacon can be yours for under 20 bucks (albeit a miniature version). Try finding him for that price on eBay!
