    Multiple people in the CA Sightings thread have reported finding Fort Max at TRU retail over the weekend. So far no photo proof yet so I guess the official news is up for grabs, but with at least 4 people reporting in from different locations in CA it sounds pretty likely. I'm guessing nobody took a picture because they all figured it was found already? But after looking at Nevermore's release thread I noticed in fact no US sighting has been reported yet.

    He showed up at a Toys R Us in Milwaukee over the weekend as well. I know 2-3 people that got one.

    I hadn't realized he wasn't confirmed at retail already? I saw Fort Max at two separate TRUs here in SoCal while out today.

    I saw a space for Fort max (including price tag 149.99) at my local TRU. Did NOT see the figure.

    I assume it's coming soon.

    Dang wonder if this is why they haven't shipped the ones that were ordered online first because they went to the stores first.

    It always hits the stores first for TRU before the online orders go out.
