    Monroeville TRU had two MP Starscreams and at least one grey Bluestreak when I was there yesterday.

    I may hold out on hasbros combaticons till we see what takara does with Blastoff. I'm ok with him being a jet, but that is one lazy uninspired repaint for the sake of repaints. They couldn't even bother to use firefly's head with the proper face mask...

    Three ML Hulkbuster BAF wave guys at Wilkes-Barre Walgreens. All had the Hulkbuster pieces swapped out for some piece of junk.

    Well, there's New Dimension comics, they have a few locations so one should be a bit closer to you than another place would be. I can't imagine they'd give you good prices but it should at least be easy to dump a bunch of stuff at once.

    Any chance of our Walmart getting that TMNT shipper thats suppose to have the Walmart Exclusive Lord Dregg and Mozar figures in it? I know they tend to not put those types of things on the floor.

    Left a MP Starscream at the Mechanicsburg TrU. Mine has few QC issues (the sprue marks are a bit obvious) so hopefully the other is good too.

    give it time...I doubt they'll miss the chance to milk that mold. It's not like it was a previous mold, they invested time and money and need the money back from it.

    Your theory is sound, but the track record proves it wrong.

    RTS Rumble and Frenzy
    Arms Micron Breakdown
    Arms Micron Unicron
    Rumored Groove
    We already saw what Hasbro has planned for Blast Off.

    It's absolutely reasonable to believe Hasbro won't release them here.

    Oh, one more... TAV-21 Optimus. There's nothing in the works for him to receive a US release.

    I don't think they count for that analogy at least. They are just redecos/remolds rather than fully new molds.

    good point.... so will the only way to get groove be through the box set or might he be available separately?

    Cool, let me know if you see them. I know in most cases the term Walmart Exclusive usually means "everyone but ours"

    Hey, anyone know Amazon's policy on returns with respect to QC issues or factory paint? Like, if it's a third-party seller with fulfillment through Amazon, will they return something with shitty paint?

    Botcon will probably use it for their beast wars themed combiner. Probably tarantulus.

    I would've been fine with hasbros legends groove. Then takara made that deluxe groove. Now I have buyers remorse lol

    Contact the seller first. If they are unresponsive, go to Amazon's customer service. It'll get sorted out no matter what. Their CS is amazing.
    For example, I ordered a new iPod for my daughter's birthday. When the package arrived (tracking said delivered), the box was empty. I contacted them immediately, saying it was a present for her birthday in two days, and they overnight-ed a brand new one without question.

    Cool. I bought an MP Bumblebee off one of the third party sellers, which Amazon fulfilled for them, but I'm just worried what happens if I get it and it looks like shit.

    I have to say, that's one thing I've always liked about shopping in brick and mortar stores. You get a shitty copy of something, it's really easy to swap it out for a better one. Online, not so much.
