    Waterford TRU restocked on FoC and Prime deluxes (regular, not FE), as well as GDO and Prime Voyagers. FE Voyagers aren't in the system for any local stores yet.

    Off-topic: Massive restock of TMNT figures, including a full display box of Classics ($19.99 now).

    I know this isn't a sighting but i really could use the help of the locals around St Pete and Tampa. I have the war within omnibus and the pages are falling out so i was wondering if anyone knows of any local places that would be able to repair it. I bought it when borders still existed so returning out isn't an option.

    No I was hoping to have it done professionally but if i cant find someone i'm guessing thats gonna be my only option but i'm to afraid of ruining it. and in tearms of sightings TRU on tyrone has a buttload of Prime figures all of them are the main guys you usually see no Airachnid or anything however they did still have the GDO Megs

    Not exactly a "sighting", but if you're in the Ft. Lauderdale area, Brian Posehn will be at Tate's Comics in Lauderhill tomorrow (12/14) from noon til two. I guess I have an incentive to get those first few issues of the new Deadpool...

    I believe he was 22.99 i'd have picked him up if i had money and i didn't have HFTD Bludgeon plus I'm trying to finish my bruticus.

    If anyone gets an extra soundwave voyager i'd gladly grab it from ya xD only reason i bring it up i dont get paid for another week and TRU will probably be sold out by then

    I don't know if this is newsworthy or not, but the Super Walmart off SR 50 near Alafaya Trail has those (new?) Rescue Bots Energize figures that come with the little humans. I saw Heatwave or whatever the firetruck is called, Optimus Prime, and Bumblebee. According to Seibertron.com, these were only recently seen on eBay, but I don't pay enough attention to Rescue Bots to have any clue if this is a first retail sighting. Aside from a single Prime Bumblebee, they were the only Transformers toys in the toy aisle.

    I spotted a Prime Thundertron at TRU in Gainesville yesterday, and the first thing I thought was "How did Leobreaker get in Prime?". (I never saw him before..)

    The Ross in the Target plaza near University mall (Tampa) had a few Leader Ironhides and Sentinels, also a Voyager Shockwave and Megatron.

    My score was Thundercats Grune the Warrior! He is a bad ass looking figure, 3.99 was like I stole him!

    Wow! No new sightings in three days! Anyway, UM and Thundertron are starting to see saturation at most Wal-Marts and Targets in the Orlando area. In addition, Vehicon is continuing to shelf-warm at a few Targets....

    No sight of Voyager Skyquake but since it is pictured on the box for Ultra Magnus as a cross-sell leads me to believe that it will make its way here since it is already out in the Philippines....

    OH! I snagged a Thundertron and an Ultra Magnus at the Ross in Winter Garden Village. People in that general area should check it out; they had two more Thundertrons and another UM, so thems slim pickins, but still! c:

    Did you find five Wheeljacks? If so, you could totally do half of "The Twelve Days of Christmas".
