    Fred Meyer's does it again! Check out the Ballard Fred Meyer to get a hold of your Leader class Movie Optimus Prime, and your Optimus Prime Voice changing helmet!

    I neglected to pick up the helmet today, but mostly only because my girlfriend was giving me the stink-eye.

    Respective Price points:

    Leader Class Prime: 44.99
    Optimus Prime Voice-Changing Helmet: 32.99

    I picked up Bigbot and BigHead at Fred Meyers earlier this week. It is TOO much fun to pull up in a drive-thru wearing the Prime helmet. People flip and have a good laugh.

    I had it in my hands in Arundel Mills, MD in a Wal-Mart... until I got to the register. When it scaned, it said "CANNOT SELL". After convincing him that it was not a recalled item, he finally went for a manager. The assistant was absolutly rude, and stormed off after the "Real" manager. He came back with some BS excuse that if he sells this to me Wal-mart as a whole will lose the right to sell the Movie toys. There is absolutely nothing I could threaten him with to change his mind because of all of the sheep behind me ready to shell out for all of the other garbage that they sell...

    If they aren't supposed to sell them, then don't even give it to them to hold. Wal-mart is historically unable to hire enough quality help. My apologies to the employees on the board, but I best experiences at Wal-mart is when I can go in, grab what I want, and check myself out.

    As a former employee myself, the happiest times was when I got the job, when I didn't know any better, and when I quit , when I did.

    Hey Rogzilla, check out Fred Meyers off of 217 and Canyon Rd. They have Deluxes and Real Gear in the center isle of the toy section. I just got my BoneCrusher from there.
