    I'm assuming that was you in the Camaro I saw leaving 10min after 8 then? I was up early so I headed over to be there at opening but took a wrong turn and got there late, teach me to trust my GPS.

    After that hit up Clackamas TRU at 9 in time to see a guy in a silver Mercedes literally run to the TF section as they opened the doors, apparently someone had told him the were going to have MP Prime in today and it sounded liked he planned on buying several, as I left I saw him returning a bag full of TF's so they now have a GDO Laserbeak and Sandstorm along with what looked like at least a half dozen FoC Shockwaves.

    Yea, that was me. I only needed rumble and kup to keep my prime line up to date and didn't want to miss them. That was the first time in weeks, possibly months that I saw Fairview Target restock deluxes. I don't think they have restocked prime deluxes since their toy reset. I picked up the vehicon because it seems like they aren't as scarce now so I don't feel guilty army building. Which one(s) were you after?

    I haven't been impressed with a prime deluxe lately but I really like rumble. His alt mode is kind of plane but he looks bad ass in his robot form. Kup is mediocre.

    I called Tigard TRU and they told me no MP OP received this week. Oh well, hopefully next week.

    I had to order one off hts.com... haven't seen it locally anywhere...

    Did they have any MP Primes? Guessing No? Gonna stop by there this evening after work, thinking I'm SOL for MP Prime for now, but will get the Regular Show figures and maybe a GDO Laserbeak if they still have one! :) 

    I wish I had a Mercedes, but I drive a charcoal grey Honda Accord, say hi if you see me. I get good gas mileage. Don't hate! LOL

    I don't know either...

    It stands for Global Development Organization. They are the generations packaging that has what I think is Chinese writing on them. The deluxes are swerve wheelie cliffjumper and springer. They are Toys R Us exclusives. They also have scout and legend classes and voyagers that have been hitting WA but haven't seen them in OR yet or heard of sightings here yet.

    NICE! I'll start checking my Targets!

    EDIT: Is this the first in-store sighting? You should take a picture and post it in the NEWS section get yourself some credit!

    Congrats. It's dumb but I was legitimately disappointed that the Tigard TRU didn't get any. I even convinced my wife to let me have the car today so I could run out at lunch and grab one. But alas, no luck.

    I was the guy there with the baby. Yeah that guy booked it to the TFs. My buddy at the front had MP Prime for me there so I didn't have to run with a baby in my arms. Got it for Wraith Prime.

    They had 1 Prime left but that guy was stashing it waiting for a friend to come by and buy it for him.

    They had 2 Swerves, 1 Cliffy, 1 voyager Powerpants or whatever his name is. The Mercedes guy grabbed the Megs. I got a Hotspot for Oxidative and an extra Megs if anyone wants it. I also grabbed an extra Rumble and Vehicon from the FM in Clack if anyone wants those. PM me

    No FE figs at Clack TRU this week though. I still just want one Vehicon and maybe a Zombie CJ
