    Oh, I'm a little late on this one...

    I found FOC Jazz and Optimus Prime about a week ago at the Bangor TRU. No Shockwave, though. Someone beat me to it!

    No signs of any new PRID stuff though. WTF? Terrible distribution.

    I forgot to mention this!

    A bunch of TF stuff has shown up at TJ Maxx and Marshalls.

    DOTM Leader Class BB and Ironhide - $25.99
    DOTM Voyagers - $15.99 (I think...)
    Transformers Universe Optimus Prime and G2 Megatron (2-pack) - $?????

    it is pretty terrible. I've only ever seen Bulkhead and Starscream once at Target in Bangor, and that was maybe early June.

    Target in Bangor had FoC stuff as well as weaponizer Bumblebee and Prime and Optimus Maximus. Still no new deluxes or voyager.

    Found 2 Vehicons, Knock Out, Rumble, and Kup at the Brewer Walmart last week.

    Found Dreadwing at the Bangor Walmart yesterday!


    SWEET!


    (Nothing new at any other location, though...)

    Cool, maybe stuff will start to filter out around the area.

    Heads up guys. Bangor Toys-R-Us has no Masterpiece Optimus Prime, as I just bought the last one, and no more expected.

    However, they do have since my last visit, one each of Masterpiece Thundercracker, GDO Scouts Sandstorm and Dead End, and GDO Deluxe Cliffjumper. If anyone plans on grabbing 'Cracker, let me know and I can sent you a 15% off coupon good until the 22nd.

    I'll probably be hitting Portland TrU on Monday, so I'll update if there is anything good.

    Ah cool, thanks for the heads-up.

    I'm not worried about no more OPs, I wasn't gonna buy him anyway. But, I hope that Thundercracker stays there until tomorrow. I just might grab him...


    Yeah, it can be a little slow for TFs up here...

    You went to UMaine? Orono, I'm guessing? Me too.

    Saw Knockout yesterday at walmart in Waterville, but they wouldn't sell it to me because it wouldn't scan at the register,saying it had a recall or something. They also had new cyber verse with Ultra Magnus, Skyquake and Tailgate. And the KMart there had Kup, Rumble and a Vehicon but they were almost 20 bucks.

    Ohhhhh, what a bunch of crap.

    I had the same thing happen to me at the Brewer Walmart (wouldn't scan), and I thought "Oh great...here we go.", but they went to the toy aisle, got the price, and entered them manually. I was pleasantly surprised - and there was no one behind me in line, thankfully...

    Glad to see some newer stuff trickling in. It was slow down here in southern NH till TRU started getting in all their exclusives.

    Yup graduated in 2000.

    Knockout is gone. However, they had a few more that I don't recall being there. Voyager Optimus Prime, Starscream, Bulkhead, & Dreadwing, Deluxe Cliffjumer, and Weaponizer Optimus Prime & Bumblebee. Forgive me, I'm not in the market for the Prime line, so I don't know if these were First Editions or whatever, or even if they had been there previously.

    On vacation in Grand Rapids, MI this week, and scored GDO Hot Spot. They only had 1 of those, but they had the other 2 GDO Voyagers, an assortment of GDO Deluxes, and a FoC Brawl. If any of my fellow Mainers are interested in these at cost and a trip between Newport & Waterville, or shipping at cost, let me know.

    I found some good stuff today.

    I found Onslaught and Blast Off at the Bangor TRU, and Brawl, Vortex, and Swindle at the Bangor Target. There were no extra figs on the pegs, so I lucked out. I woulda been bummed if I could only find 4 of the 5.

    I also found Powerizer Thundertron and Ultra Magnus, so I'm psyched!



    Really?! Sweet! I hope to see him soon.

    Brunswick Walmart all but empty, as usual. A few deluxe Generations Primes, a couple left over movie voyager Primes, a few Powerizer Primes. One of the larger Cyberverse sets, a few Cyberverse figures, and a few Bot Shots.

    I'll check the other stores in my area, edit the information into this post.

    Man, all kinds of good stuff at the Bangor TRU today!

    Beast Hunters Lazerback, Wheeljack, Soundwave, BB
    Generations Soundwave and Soundblaster
    Frenzy/Ratbat and Ravage/Rumble 2-packs
    FE Optimus Prime and Bulkhead
    Masterpiece Optimus Prime

    For now I only bought Soundwave, both 2-packs and Lazerback. I'll probably go back.

    I was gonna go check out Target and Walmart but the weather got nasty. Maybe tomorrow. Honestly though, TRU had everything that's new, so there's really no point going to those other places. But I will anyway...:D
