    That isn't gonna help, all of the Generations Deluxes are logged under the same DPCI at Target, so it could be Black Shaddow, and Junkheap, or it could be a mound of Skullgrins and WFC Cliffjumpers.

    I dont think so either. Maybe very limited release to be seen at marshalls in like 3 or 4 months.

    they arent disappearing fast... they just arent showing up. Toys R Us only, and the TRUs in my area all have scalping employees and are dishonest. You should have seen how badly MP Grimlock was handled and MP Rodimus. You had to backdoor deal both of them with your sisters virginity or next of kin for one.

    My TRU currently has no generations and 70% of the deluxe pegs are filled with ROTF toys (Not even HFTD, straight up old ROTF packages).

    Yea... no bueno.

    That's the thing. The deluxe pegs were totally empty, minues like two DOTM toys, and then they filled them to the brim with ROTF shit. This is after not having ROTF shit on the shelves for a loooong time. Just really odd.

    Oh well. This is how it always goes. Figures are super rare, and within two months they pegwarm. Not worried.

    You may have them run the Generations stock number. The one nearest me showed 7 Deluxe Generations figures on hand, but there was only one on the pegs and none in the stockroom. I am hoping the service desk girl adjusted the stock on hand as she said it tends to get pretty messed up.
