    But on a sad note, in CA the TRU employee said she sees a fat goose egg on order.

    I'll prepare myself for the inevitable customs rape, but if that's what it takes to get my hands on this guy, then so be it!

    Hopefully! I've been waiting for this guy. He won't really match my Hasbro Skywarp since they're not the same mold... but you know that might be nice to have some slight difference between them.

    You could always make a deal with a member here in the US to get it for you at cost + shipping. A little less rapeage of the wallet but you need to have a US member you trust.

    So you just called them and gave them the number? 787681?

    What number did you give them for Prime?

    Masterpiece Thundercracker Arrivng at some Toys R Us within the week

    Just got back from the local Toys R Us and was surprised to see that they had a sticker out for the Masterpiece Thundercraker Figure. Wasn't expecting this toy so soon, especially since I was looking for the New Optimus Masterpiece figure. But the price was there on the shelf and the sticker ID ready to go.

    After talking to an employee, he confirmed the store was expecting the toy on the next truck or the one after that. He expected it within the week.

    Good hunting to everyone.

    I wouldn't ever believe a word of what any Toys R Us employee tells you.

    @Roufuss :: Take his response for what it's worth. But at least they made shelf space for it.

    The TRU I went to was in North Irving, in the Dallas Fort Worth, TX metro. I was on my lunch break today. I'll scope out some more tonight when I get off work.

    I will buy one on ebay when it shows up. I am tired of walking into TRU and coming up empty handed. Saving time , money and stress. If I happen upon one someday cool.
