    Annapolis still has at least 3 Thundercrackers, and now 2-3 FE Bulkheads. There was an FE Optimus too, but there's an oddity with him where the windshield glass on his chest is two different colors. Seemed like a good assortment of FOC disks and Soundwaves, though I didn't really bother checking Botshots.

    They've also still got so many DOTM Cyber Helmets it's scary. Enough to start an Optimus-themed cult.

    Alright everyone, get your masks. WE TAKE CITY HALL TONIGHT!!!! JK. I cant believe any place is still selling them. And the odd part is that I've seen the TFPrime ones on clearance but not the movie ones. Weird huh?!

    Nobody watches Prime...at least relative to the movies.
    Found a DOTM ultimate Prime at the Frederick Target. $79.99. Weird. Nothing else registered with me in my daily trip through Frederick.

    I went wandering through TRU Frederick today as I have perks expiring tomorrow, and while there TF section is lacking, I did notice the new Young Justice 2 packs with the Amazo Build a Figure pieces.

    Hagerstown TRU today had a couple Prime BH Bumblebees and Wheeljacks each as well as a few each of FOC Ultra Magnus, Starscream, Kickback, Sideswipe and Fireflight.

    Other things of note were 1 FE Bulkhead, 5 MP TCrackers, some FOC Soundwave's and Soundblasters, data disc packs and a bunch of PRiD voyagers and deluxes.

    Found PRiD Kup at Marshall's for $7, my only purchase for the day.

    Picked up FoC Kickback and Starscream at the Hampstead Walmart. They didn't have ANY Transformers on the shelves (outside of a few Botshot launchers). I snagged these from a pallet case. Sorry dudes!

    Max, it was good to meet you at the Columbia TRU yesterday. Been awhile since Nez arranged a regional meetup, but now that it's after the holidays, anyone interested?

    Oh, and to stay on topic, I didn't see anything amazing at TRU except being intrigued by the Darth Vader / Star Destroyer crossover that also turned into Anakin. I remember folding paper to make star destroyers when I was a kid. Too bad this toy's Darth Vader look's nothing like him! :p  Makes we want to dig out my Vader/Death Star--which has to be the silliest TF concept until I remember Unicron, lol. They're about the same size, too. I need another bookcase for all this stuff!

    Glad I only picked up the the Asian GDO Motorbreath (terrible re-name) and Thundercracker guys. Nice and small, if overpriced. Hoist is still there (as of yesterday) if anyone's interested.

    I'm waiting for Grimlock. Everything else is either in my hands, coming, or making me die a little inside. Maybe I'll throw down for MP Soundwave and his cassettes. Or not. Need to purge really.
    I'd be down for a meetup at least in theory. Work is hectic for the next three or four weeks. Feel free to get the ball rolling though. Right now I just want a decent night's sleep.

    Finally made it out today and ended up at the Walmart on Rt 85 to find the smaller scale DOTM figures and a PCC Crankcase. I felt like I was doing post-Christmas shopping.... for 2011.

    Picked up FoC Kickback at the Wal-Mart in Towson on Sunday. They still had FoC Ultra Magnus, Air Raid, Starscream, and two Sideswipes that afternoon.

    A couple FoC Soundwaves and disk packs at the Towson TRU on Sunday, along with two of every deluxe BH except Lazerback.

    Nothing good at Towson Target.

    Dude this week is the only week I'm not hunting and I can almost guarantee that it means that of course the new waves will show up and disappear this week. Please nobody tell me if i'm right. I hope that TRU, Target, and Walmart get their shit together with distribution soon. The Walmart by me FINALLY got wave 2 of generations. Now that everyone else is finding wave 3. FML.

    Anybody check Columbia or Rosedale TRU recently? I'm hunting for a GDO and Wheelie. I'm going to do a lot of traveling in the next two weekends but hope to make it to a meetup if one is set up.
