What I worry about now more then anything is the Voyagers. They will be even more limited then the Deluxes. And since Brawn is not coming over Stateside he will be highly sought after when released in Asia.

You can never count on TRU to stock anything (except Bumblebees). Get them where and when you can and avoid the even higher mark-up later. Good luck to all of us with MP Thundercracker and Prime.
I guess I'm lucky insofar as my local TRU gets stuff in on a regular basis. Just today I got Shockwave for FOC, and I'm sure they'll at least get the Asiarations in when they come out. I know I'll have to be on the spot to beat the local scalpers to the store, but it's better than 2x or 3x retail compared to sitting in my car for an hour or two after work.
