    I really wish the insecticons would clone themselves right now, then everyone can have their set.

    Lucky, I got emails that my order was canceled and reinstated, then canceled again. At this stage I am just waiting for them to show up in the store.

    Well I finally received an email back from TRU after I waited about 72 hours. They said, "Are you sure that this is the correct name of the item? I do not see that we have sold 25th Anniversary Transformers."

    What are they, a bunch of dumb-ass morons? What kind of people they have working for them?

    Weird...unless they are looking at exact names like "Transformers Commemorative Series" which may be why.

    On a side note, I checked out my Perceptor and Insecticons, and I must say, I am rather curious to why they made Perceptors missile launcher useless. Missiles are too short to lock in, and the trigger doesn't even move!

    I am sure it has to do with safety regulations, and they just messed up the inside of the cannons

    They have been taken down from TRU's site. Unless you have saved them in your cart or search, you can't find them.

    Like if you type in Perceptor, it will not come up, but it does show up at the bottom of my screen where it says "Recently viewed items"

    But I could not find it under the Transformers category or the TRu exclusive Category.

    Remember, the Insecticons are called "Insections"

    the links still work and it brings up the entry...so maybe they have just removed them from the transformers category until they get more stock in....

    Is it just me or is TRU's website horrible? It takes 8 years for a single page to load and the searches don't always work. I get the same thing with HTS.
