    What type of kits were they? If they were HG sets I might start hunting for them around Cincy

    I saw that Unit-3 on their Facebook page. I thought about getting it but passed since I already have it. A steal for sure - Congrats!

    Do you by any chance know if they still have BW Terrorsaur there? I saw that figure on their Facebook page as well. It was on the same post as Unit-3.

    I thought I remember seeing it as I was digging through the bins. I can’t guarantee I saw it though. The rain should keep people at bay today so they may not have a wait at all today

    I also got a steal from them yesterday; a Takara Legends Thundercracker (Armada) for 10 bucks.

    Nice! You guys are lucky. I was up there last Friday and they didn’t have that stuff. Might go back today for the Terrorsaur...

    They had one MG Barbatos, which left with me, and four HG Wing Zero kits.

    The Toy Dept also had a Botcon 2015 Most Wanted set that I’m hoping to pick up when my tax return gets done

    Holy shit looks like I’ll be hunting for those. I was just telling myself I should get a new Gundam kit. Where were they located at the Sugarcreek store?

    Everywhere else online has him for 60+. I wonder if they or the seller just didn’t know what they had?

    I wish the Toy Dept wasn't so far away from me. I just browsed through their FB page and I'd really love to stop by sometime. But I can't justify making a three hour drive just to go to a toy store.

    My guess would be that it was the seller. Also the figure was $35 at retail release via imports so it could have easily been priced at $40 at the Toy Dept

    They’re normally good about knowing their stuff, which sort of surprises me. He also want in a case, but with bagged tf’s opposite the case

    Yeah. I think somewhat obscure loose figures like my Unit-3 from today can slip through. To be frank I only knew they had a Unit-3 since I happened to be scrolling through Facebook and saw that unicron.com posted about the character’s history last night and after noticing it today looking through the Toy Dept’s Transformer post on Friday

    They were at the end of the same aisle as the TFs. I was in the same mindset about a Gundam kit. I have two on order at usagundamstore, but all the shipping mess that's going on has delayed them indefinitely... I was so happy to hear they were there at the store.

    Xenia Walmart has one Netflix Megatron on the shelf. That deco is really nice!

    They opened on Tuesday last week. I went that afternoon and picked up MP Ironhide for $75. Hopefully their building is secure though. As I’ve mentioned before that I work at Micro Center in Sharonville and we had to close cause our parking lot flooded this morning
