    Figured I'd order the wave 2 prime masters from BBTS as I haven't seen them anywhere, annnd they're out of stock. Nothing at TFS or CP either. So now, I wait.

    Dumb question but...how do you get INTO the Midtown Ollies? I went there last year to see if they had Fort Max, and I couldn't figure out where the actual store was. Just the drop-off office.

    Ah! yep, I misread. Thanks! I guess the MIDtown one IS just a drop-off office.

    Thank god I don't do anything that requires careful proofreading and accuracy [goes back to work at publishing company]

    Where did you see Wave 5 at the Ollies in Henrietta? I was there today and only saw TR wave 3 and 4: Titans Return (toyline) - Transformers Wiki

    Some GOOD news for all of you looking for Trypticon, an associate told me that managers told them they cannot put Trypticon out until this Thursday morning 5/17/18 and they have a ton of them in the back.

    Agreed, I stopped there yesterday afternoon, tons of Wave 4 Revision 2 (IE No Kup or Perceptor) probably like 5 boxes worth with 2 of them on the top shelf, but no wave 5.

    Anyone heading to Albany Ollie's tomorrow?

    Looks like they're going to have a three per customer limit, which should help get these out to those like me who've been waiting for this guy to show up. Last week they said they had six boxes in stock (so 12 pieces), and that they'd go out tomorrow morning like everyone else.

    As of this morning, they only had the wave four revision wave, no wave 5. I'm hoping those might get put out tomorrow with Trypticon. Wouldn't mind a spare Twin Twist.

    Dddaaaammmmnnnnnn. Albany only had six out (towards the front, near the registers) when I went in at 9. I grabbed one, and so did another member of the forums whose name/handle I didn't catch. Four were left as of 9:10 this morning.

    So Hasbro sending Marshall's Transformers figures is no longer a thing? That's fine, I mean there are, figuratively, bazillions of Marshall's and TJ Maxxs around here, and literally, zero Ollie's. But kudos to those who can get their hands on one at Ollie's. Your patience really paid off. Maybe we'll get thrown a bone down here and Marshall's will stock up on the elusive PotP Hun-gurrr, the way they got Reveal the Shield stock... sans Windcharger and Strafe... when no other store carried them.

    There were 6 left at the Ollie's in Middletown around 12:30. They are up front next to the registers.

    Still no Wave 5 TR Deluxes in sight, but Ollie’s New Hartford has sold 4 out of 16 Trypticon’s already.
