    So... after opening berserker.. I don't know how they can charge $20 for this crap. I thought the AOE figures were rather cheap and poorly made, but this figure takes the cake.

    Nothing wants to tab in or stay tabbed, the damn car kibble on the arms aren't affixed.. they're just tabbed in. WOW.

    The legs are begging for some kind of ankle articulation.

    The whole thing is just meh. Paying $15 for it stings a little, but I can't imagine people feeling happy about getting this for $20.

    I really hope this isn't indicative of the rest of the line. There are a few figures I'm a bit excited for, hopefully they turn out better than this thing.

    Shippensburg Walmart still has the two TR Megatrons and the new NuRiD wave. No sign of movie stuff.

    Today Shippensburg Walmart has the same exact stuff with no movie figures on display anywhere. I looked up and saw ONE case of deluxes on the top shelf, so I grabbed a Barricade. It rang up at $15.83.

    Honestly, this is a decent figure. Good articulation, solid build and nice accessories. Pinned wheels are nice, too.
    It just doesn't feel like Barricade though.

    Horsham TRU got another case of the Gnaw, Kickback and Bumblebee wave of Legends. They're all still on the peg, last I saw

    Horsham Walmart has TLK.
    I picked up the only Barricade as he mildly interests me and wanted to get it before they hike the price.

    They still have Optimus, Grimlock, a Bumblebee and 2x Slash.

    There's a sky shadow at the target in montgomeryville.

    Also, a guy from my high school was just drafted in the second round of the NFL draft. Pretty cool (not like I knew him) but my high school is fairly small.

    2x Broadside at Erie TRU. I'm surprised to see them restock a newer figure so fast.
    The rest is your usual run of the mill sightings fodder. =\

    The two Skyshadow's that were at the Chambersburg Target are gone. Just a PMOP and a load of wave 3 deluxes remain.

    Chambersburg Target also has some figures from the Sandman wave of Marvel legends. They also have the legends two packs of Spidey/Vulture and Spidey/Shocker.

    Cheltenham Target had 1 Broadside, a few wave 2 and 3 TR Deluxes and no Legends.

    Bought a copy of DAMN and a Peppermint Mocha Frappe.

    I was at the Pgh Mills Mall area today.

    The collectibles shop (Dave & Brian's or something) had some decent prices on older opened figures... like Gens Roadbuster, FoC Blaster, FoC Soundwave for $8 each. Not a huge selection but not bad.
    Comic shop had some TR and CW, notably they had I think three CW Grooves, 18.99

    Ross didn't have any Transformers of note (minicons from RiD, etc)

    Walmart had Barricade and Berserker, I think that's all from the new movie line

    Was up in quakertown this morning. Got Barricade and Berserker and Sky Shadow all there. At least one each left of those, plus a couple Slash? and couple Bee and also one Sky Shadow I think? Saw a Broadside at the Montgomeryville Walmart too.

    Forgot... Checked ActionToyMan on 26th st.
    Nice guy, a pretty good selection, incredibly high prices. (Not to mention, when he does have something cheap, it makes the whole thing feel like pricing is all over the map.)
    Had a couple items, but I just couldn't pull the trigger.

    If there's a list for Sky Shadow, please put me on it. Can't find the damn thing anywhere.
