I had seen one in Jax a week or two again. ATM I don't recall what store it was at. I can take a look tomorrow while I'm out.
The S. Lakeland and Mulberry WMs were devoid of new or interesting things, except for the voyager-class lion guy at WM.
I'm also looking for a leader sentinel but in Tampa St pete area also I'm looking for some skylanders specifically a giant named thumpback for my nephew if anyone spots him
The reason they hollowed it out was to build a HUGE TRU, Before it was TRU and PetSmart now its all TRU! Us Miami-Dade/Broward guys need to get together sometime!!! Hopefully Botcon makes its way back to Orlando!!
Any recent sightings of FOC Brawl in new tampa or Wesley chapel? Is MP Op at Wesley Chapel TRU? And is MP optimus 130 now in the brick and mortar TRU? Thanks for any replies.
Thanks for the great suggestions. I made it to the world-famous Brandon TRU, plus the ones in Naples, Ocala, Gainesville, Tallahassee and three or four in Orlando, plus numerous Targets and Wal-Marts. I also hit Secret Headquarters Comics in Tally and Mike's Comics and Acme Superstore in Orlando. I've decided on FSU, but I'm definitely taking Orlando shopping trips while I'm up there. I need to find a roommate from Orlando so that I can use going with him as an excuse...
You can count on my attendance to any get together in the south Florida area. I also plan on going to Universal Studios Orlando next year for the Transformers Ride. If anyone wants to come along, I'm happy to drive. As for sightings, I haven't seen squat new recently.
As a UF alum I can't agree with the FSU choice but while you're there your 2nd closest TRU is in Valdosta, GA. It's a really, really old fashioned designed TRU just off I-75 but I've had really good luck finding stuff there and the staff has always been friendly. Wild Adventures amusement park is there so my family tries to go at least once a year for a few days.
In fairness, UF doesn't offer my desired major. Otherwise it would've been on the trip in place of USF (which I picked at the last minute because I realized that I had a 2:00 appointment, meaning that I might make it to Tallahassee by then if I left at six in the morning, so Tampa became convenient). Also, I don't mind there being only one TRU in the area. At Penn State, the closest one was about an hour away in Altoona, and for the first three years I didn't have a car. I'm used to large, old schools in the middle of nowhere. Besides, there's eBay.
No. I have them at Retail Cost if anyone needs them in the Tampa Bay Area or is willing to make the trip here to pick them up.
Marshalls across from the Brandon town Center has 3 Leader Ironhides & Bees, 1 leader Sentinel Prime, and a lone generations Wheeljack.
The TRU in Tallahassee isn't too bad and it's just a few minutes off campus which is always good. They usually get the new stuff about a week after others do and, from my experience, the staff never knows what is coming on the trucks. Plus there is a Target just up the road. Props for picking FSU btw.
Still have not seen anything news worthy. I know the north lakeland Aldi has prime toys. I am still looking or a Bot Shots Clear Shockwave. Anyone out there willing to help me out??
I ended up getting a Tomica Mechadock liner from that TRU. Damn that thing is fun, and it's a lot of toy for $8. The biggest issue I had is that my GPS is apparently about a year out of date, and it couldn't locate Cosmic Cat Comics. I had to drive around the block three times to figure out where Secret Headquarters was, too.
