    Managed to squeeze in one last "last" visit to TRU in WLR and they had some Studio Thundercrackers. Picked up one and left the rest for those looking for him. Signs still say 10% off action figures but TC actually rang up 15% off at $25.49. That was the only new TFs they had.

    Non-TF, but they also have two Legacy Gold Zeo Ranger staffs on an endcap by the PR stuff. $149.99 marked but didnt scan to see the discounted price.

    As for Mega Construx heroes, just one Beast Man. Without Teela, I passed on him.

    TRU exclusive. Also, hasbro assigned him to DOTM, which had so many generics in it that he totally could have been in there and nobody would have noticed.

    Strange thing is that at first I could have cared less about Studio Thundercracker. The Nitro Zeus mold is a really good mold for a BayVerse figure but I have said character's release and didn't really want to get another one despite the blue looking really good on the mold. Also it was a TRU exclusive so I didn't really feel like having to make a special trip to a TRU store everytime I was in Little Rock for a doctor's appointment just to find one.

    Ironcially, it was the same latter reason that changed my mind and made me want one after it was announced that TRU was going into liquidation. I have a bunch of good memories of going to TRU for Transformers and I figured the last TRU exclusive Transformer would be a good memento for one last TRU visit. I was pleased to find one this last Wednesday. That trip will more than likely be my final visit to a TRU since I really have no reason to go back to Little Rock until mid summer at least for my next appointment and I don't know if TRU will still be open by then or not. So more than likely being my last visit to a TRU, I was very satisfied with it finding Thundercracker to always remind me that I will always be a TRU kid no matter what.
