    Bleh. I'm still half tempted to get Starscream, but he's just so damn big. And I already passed up on on clearance for $22 just after last xmas.

    Are they going to have only Starscream, or is it going to be all figures in that price range?

    I don't have a Supreme Screamer, yet. But, at $25.00 that matter shall soon be rectified.

    At $25 I'd get Supreme Emperor Starscream (Emperor Starscream? This is bad comedy) but the problem I forsee is: will there be any in stock?

    Small update:

    On my drive to my parent's house for Thanksgiving I swung by two TRU's, both had a plethora of Supreme Starscream, at the first one I stopped at they were already labelled $24.99, double checked with a price scanner to confirm. So I bought that bad boy. The second TRU still had them labelled at $49.99 but I didn't check the price scanner to see what it rang up at.

    The moral of the story is:

    Check your local TRU today, you could possibly save yourself a headache on Black Friday, but keep in mind your mileage may vary.

    Hmm... might need to check this out... last time I was there, my local TRU had an ass load of Starscreams, and I'd love to pick one up at that price.

    Thanks for the news! I might have to check tonight!

    As for the 3 packs, it figures, I only need one figure from each of the 3 packs!
    I want to mix and match, dammit!

    Cut each card into three parts, keep the ones you want and give the others to Toys for Tots. I'm going to get both of these and give one to my nephew and donate the other.

    I think everyone is starting to label their Black Friday items early. Wal-Mart has also done this. Or they are going off an already low price.

    Wish I had checked today. Oh well...

    If you're talking about the Leader + Scout bonus packs, walmart.com and many physical W*Ms have had them at the $32.88 price for a while.

    The cheap 3-packs made an excellent donation to Toys for Tots. Enjoy Thunderblast, little boy and/or girl!
