    I hope the $9.97 price sticks around for a while.

    The TRU in my area bumped the price up to $16.99!

    How can that be?

    It was not mentioned on the headline of Cybertron.ca and Rattrap and Tankor have not been seen yet in Canada.

    Kinda funny how they were found in the Simpsons' hometown.

    D'oh! Wonder if Comic Book Guy scooped up all the Windblade figures lol.

    I can't wait to leave Jhiaxus on the pegs for being color inaccurate to his G2 comic run.

    Targets in the Toronto area have Windblade's wave. They mostly don't have Windblade any longer because ugh scalpers, and I guess they skipped the Rattrap wave. My sole annoyance is that driving 6h to get Windblade is... silly.

    picked up a set in waverly iowa yesterday, incidentily enough I looked in our price change screen and windblade, jhiaxus, and nightbeat have price increases. Glad I got mine before that happened.

    Prices SHOULD be back up to $14.97 (Walmart) since Tankor and Rattrap ring up at $14.97, but a funny thing happened: Windblade and Jhiaxus were still at $9.97, while Nightbeat and Crosscut were $14.97 each. I got the self-checkout guy to price match the other two (luckily), but I had some idea it must have been a glitch.

    Since Wal-mart is listing the toys by name on the receipt, it stands to reason that they are manually adjusting prices for each character, so MAYBE Windblade and Jhiaxus didn't get updated yet (as of 9/21). This could be YMMV if the stores individually set the prices on their own... I don't know.

    In any event, it may not hurt to go to Wal-mart and check the prices on each individually, rather than assume that all will ring up for $14.97 just because one did. :)

    That sounds as loose as a 10-cent milkshake. QC has declined a tad...
