    Kind of. I mean they just got the SS voyagers in yesterday, and the last time I was there before that they didn’t have any. They might have stocked today but I’m not for sure. As for TRU, I’m not for sure. I’m still looking for Thundercracker myself, not to mention the Jurassic World Exclusives that might not come to be. Id say just keep looking, I was told they won’t be closing until June.

    That would explain why the sales are going so slowly. They finally raised the percentage on action figures to...15%!

    I think the only place wave 2 prime Masters have landed in the area are at Krogers. And Maybe meijers had them too, briefly?

    You are correct Meijer had them once. I'd have to look back at my posts but I saw them just the one time in Feb I believe.

    Edit: Yes it was back on 9-10 Feb, but have never seen them since.

    I'm going to go ahead and pick Thundercracker up when EE clearances him for $20 in a year, because it turns out literally all the demand was based on TRU availability panic.

    Huh, I don't think any walmarts by me have leader classes in stock at all anymore.

    Did they just get rid of them all together? There wasn't even a shelf tag at a few of them.

    I believe they got rid of them to make room for the Studio Series (Deluxe & Voyager) in some stores. As far as I know the stores won’t be carrying either Leader class.

    Oswego walmart had wave 2 Legends Battleslash, Roadtrap, and Tailgate. 1 set of duocons left, 1 lone roadtrap, and 3 tailgates.

    On a related note, any Moonracers, Elita 1, or Hungurrs in the Chicago Area? After that initial sighting almost 2 months ago, all i’ve seen is wave 1 clogging the shelves, and now Studio series, but no wave 2 restocks.

    Anyone in the Northwest Suburbs want a box of TF comics? They're mostly movie tie ins with some idw spotlights thrown in.
    I thought I'd see if anyone wanted them before I bring them to Half Price Books.

    You might be able to find some limbs at Quake Collectibles or Quake west. It's a crapshoot when you go there, but I always find find awesome figures. West is better about having more complete figures though.

    I’ve been to both, but they never have them for long. The first time I went to West, I actually found Generations Springer and Sandstorm for a decent price and picked them up since they were near the top of my list.
