    I don't have any, but maybe we should post strategies and places to go, if there are ways other than Ebay. It just seems like they're being mass produced somewhere... Anyway, I think its worth a thread.

    Apparently the back door at the China factory seems like the best option.

    They're only on ebay dude, the massive amount of figures is due to the delay that Hasbro implied on Animated after the movie was more popular then they expected and they extended it.

    Unless a shady guy in a dark alley wearing an oversized trenchcoat approuches you offering Animated figures, Ebay is your only option. :)

    Yeah, the retailers really didn't think that one through. Now thanks to them, we all suffer!

    Funny that movie figures in Denmark now have became rarities... in fact in my area they stopped restocking Transformers... we missed out on the whole 3rd wave.
