    Anyone seen the new Marvel Legends Ant Man around Iowa City or the Grinnell area?

    Last night Ankeny Target had at least one CW Warpath figure left. This afternoon Rodman Comics in Ankeny has CW Groove and Warpath.

    Picked up a Devastator at the Clive TRU around 5pm today. There was one left on the shelves. I used the 20% off coupon somebody posted a few pages into the "Devastator spotted at US retail" thread which made the price sting less. It still hurt, but not quite as much as it could have.

    Figures....when I happen to be out of town for work! Did you have to use a TRU credit card to get the 20% off?

    No TRU credit card required, although I think it's 25% off with the coupon if you pay with the TRU credit card.

    Thanks! I found a couple Devy's while traveling for work in Sioux Falls, SD. Still hard for me to stomach even with the 20% off!

    The vehicle modes are pretty good, but I'm not a fan of the robot modes. Some are better than others. But the combined mode makes up for all of it. Very, very, very pleased with how that worked out.

    Awesome, I can't wait to get mine from BBTS. Of course it figures that they come out when I'm out of town on business for two months.

    I'm sure you guys are already well aware of this, but in case it slipped past your radar, all of the Hasbro SDCC Exclusives are up and as of about two minutes ago, all of the Transformers offerings were still available. Here's the link to the exclusives page.

    I still haven't seen Viper anywhere in the Des Moines metro. Has anybody ever seen or picked him up? Any hints as to where to find this elusive Legend?

    Clive TRU had 2 CW Devastators, one CW Cyclonus, and one MP Bluestreak early this afternoon. Valley West Target had one CW Motormaster. Nothing else of note.

    I don't think he exists. I've seen a good amount of Grooves and Warpaths for the last few months and even found Hot Rod and Skywarp the other day. I have never seen a Viper, even on fully restocked pegs.

    Little dude must be a stealth bomber! Even online he's trick to find unless you wanna pay double his price.
