The "son of a bitch" moment for me was when I realized that there were more on the shelf behind the TC-Totem. I mean, really, I'm pretty sure there are more in that photo than this whole state got. Friggin New York...

Sucks that they're $90 though in China. Especially because you know somebody's gonna walk into that store, go, "Hey, I made that... sonuvabitch... 700$. I only got paid twenty for the week!"

I'm off to HK next month. Knowing my luck they'll all be gone by the time I get there...but they'll hit Canada just in time (and susequently disappear when I return home)!

QFE. Seems like some people are in dire need of some geography lessons.

Wow! Wish the TRUs here in San Antonio had a TF display that nice. Incidentally, this TRU (Times Square, NYC) is the same one where I got my MP TC shipped from via a friend. Guess they have no shortage of TCs there. XD

Just went to the Times Square TRU about an hour ago, and it no longer looks like that. The stack of TCs are about half as high and there the shelf space has been cleared of TCs. The price is also $86.99 now. My guess is that TRU had these TCs shipped elsewhere since they weren't really moving very well in NYC.

Folks, get ready for Masterpiece Optimus, which, by the looks of it, should be dropping in NYC next week.
