    Ok. Walmart in Louisburg, all Marvel Legends are $9. They had the complete Sandman wave. All Leader class Tformers were $19. All they had left was Soundwave. Pretty much the whole aisle was clearanced.

    Walmart in WF. Just bought the Voyager Megs. Left one of him and a Hound behind.

    So, a buddy of mine is saying he saw a post (I guess on Facebook) that somebody in Grandy, NC found Trypticon at Ollie's for $49.99...

    Anybody else spotted that?

    While the OBX are an awesome vacation spot full of great sand and surf and food and natural beauty, there is only a Kmart and a walmart there and they are usually months behind in product. But go to captian George's buffet, they have fried soft shells on the buffet this season! (Had to fix this post lol)
    i think they are probably just trolling us.

    I checked out the source...it's on the Legions of Transformers Facebook page...guy has a pic of himself standing outside Ollie's with Trypticon in hand, and he provided a receipt as proof. A second person also claimed to have found one. It's definitely weird, but it seems credible...

    Maybe it's part of their Christmas toy selection and it got put out early? I dunno...


    Edit: Well, I went back through the comment thread and someone else demonstrated how easy it is to Photoshop the receipt convincingly, so perhaps this person is running an elaborate troll on TF fans :( 

    But...we all know it'll probably hit the discount stores eventually...
