    Hasbro is so smart about these things. New mold, 1 per case. But we'll have plenty repaint/remolds sitting on the shelves.

    Picked up 1 BH BB at the TRU on 54th and Ray. There is still one left as well as two BH Soundwave's. Nothing else of importance to report.

    Hey pWEN just saw a Dead End at TrU on Indian Bend and the 101. Picked up the lone FoC Starscream. Left a Sideswipe and Ultra Mag. They also had a couple BH Soundwaves.

    I did hit every Walmart between north Scottsdale down to Santan Village Wally and no one had any Transformers at all...pretty much wiped out, so the score the other day of all 5 FoC deluxes seems to be the only ones put out so far.

    Indian Bend TRU- I stopped on my break this morning and picked up Starscream, Air Raid, and Sideswipe. Some other guy there had Kickback in his hand already. If only I had gotten there a bit earlier!

    I was that guy.It was nice to meet you lol

    I just opened Kickback and it is by far my favorite of the FoC deluxes that have been released so far. It doesn't feel cheap like Jazz or Sideswipe.Also most of Wave 3's weapons are oversized but this one fits perfectly. If you see it on the peg for sure dont pass it up.

    So.

    I've been keeping my Transformers card art/boxes for some time now (at least since the first live action movie, possibly a few from Robots In Disguise).

    I'm looking to find a new home for it, at the insistence of my wife.

    Would any of you guys/ladies like first crack at it before I throw them on ebay?

    Again, this is just the card art/partial empty boxes/cut-up cardboard.
    NOT the toys themselves, nor the instruction sheets.

    You guys think I would have any luck finding MP10 at retail?? I just don't want to be "that guy" that calls the stores in the area and asks if they got them in.

    Probably not. I haven't seen an MP-10 for a couple months now. Unless TrU has been holding back stock or they plan another round of releases, I doubt you will find any at retail at all. Sorry!

    Hey guys. Looks like Prime Beast Hinters are starting to hot shelves.

    TRU at Arrowhead had some. They are pretty cool looking. Wheel jack was awesome.

    I'd say you'd be really damn lucky if you found an MP-10 in the wild at this point. I had to go back to the same location for days in a row to snag one and by noon the rest were all gone. In other words they went quick and I'd say either Amazon or eBay would be your best bet now.

    So, they're hitting 'hot' shelves? Is this a kissing cousin to peg warming? :D  In all seriousness, I agree that the BH figures are kicking much booty. I never thought I'd say this about the RID mold, but even BH BB is awesome! Overall the whole slew have been a pleasure to own and fiddle with. Only missing Wheeljack and in a moment of weakness ordered him from BBTS. Can't seem to locate him at retail and what can I say, I'm impatient.

    Actual Sighting-
    Picked up FOC Vortex at the Target on 45th/Ray. They had literally an entire peg full of RID Vehicons. I remember the days when these were going like hotcakes, so seeing this many all at once was shocking! They also have a smattering of the new turtle ooze gimmick Ninja Turtle figures. I picked up Donatello. They suck in the articulation dept, but overall aren't too horrible.
