    ^Not every one of those stores got them in, and some only got in certain characters.

    Yeah, I gotta say to those of you who haven't gotten your hands on these yet, the Megatron, in particular, is quite nice. They're all super cute, but Megatron is A+.

    I have my Optimus from ages ago, but nice to know the others can be found..and hopefully at a true discounted price. The TM here is really hit or miss in the toy dept, but who knows, I'll take a look this week. :thumb

    Front page news headline is kind of misleading. Makes one believe this is the first retail release. It's not. They were already out a while ago at Five Below.

    And I'm not excluding the possibility they may have been released even before that elsewhere, it's just the one I'm aware of because that's where I got mine.

    P.S. I'm a professional journalist, so I know something about what I speak.

    Closest Five Below to my house: 186.68 miles away.
    Closest Tuesday Morning to my house: 1.34 miles away.
    Knowledge that RTS Legends are showing up at Tuesday Morning: priceless.

    I, for one, thank you for front-paging this.

    Not everybody has a Five Below close to them. It's quite nice to see that some folks are able to get a hold of the legends figures. It's better than getting them from a :scalper 

    I've got my fair share a couple of months ago, so congrats to the OP.

    I think a new chain getting these is certainly news-worthy. However, don't make it sound like it's the first US retail release ever. That's just not true.

    Would also love this info, Tuesday Mornings around me don't usually stock anything, and they arn't all that close.

    Yeah, I found the whole set at Marshalls a few months ago. Not just a few select.

    News to me for sure. Went to the store near me, found a Starscream that I've been looking for. Also picked up Prime and Goldbug. Wish they had a Megatron though.

    Lady said someone looks like me came in and bought 5-6 of these about 3 weeks ago. I was like LOL, if that was me I wouldn't come back for more.
