West TRU had FOC. Grabbed the only Shockwave, but there are a few left of Optimus Prime and Jazz.

Like, SentinelPrime, I was excited to see all of the new TMNT line also!

Left with Shockwave and the entire TMNT line!!!!

I was so impressed with Donatello that I went back the next day for the rest, but Foot soldier and April were gone.

Scored the rest though. This is my favorite version of the Turtles to date, the 4 turtles and splinter figures have a style which I always wanted. Its the perfect blend of the black and white comics with just a dash of the cartoon. They look more like the original eastman/laird series then the actual new CGI cartoon. <3

Got word today that the Clarksville TRU got in a single case of FoC figures. I was also told that it only has ONE Jazz, ONE Shockwave and TWO Primes.

Hasbro needs to quit with the shit distribution of the most wanted figures. Last week I got word that the same TRU had the new Turtle figures in and got to go in the back and get mine. There were THREE full sets of the Turtles in a case along with multiples of all the other characters not to mention much cheaper.

Hasbro needs to take a hint from Playmates.

Sango Kmart had even less. Sad place.

Yes that Kmart is so deserted everytime I go( which isn't much) it's so empty, it's kinda creepy oh and the prices suck too unless it's clearance

Yeah, the Sango Kmart is pathetic. I'm not sure why they are still open. They should either remodel it, or just close it down and end it's sad existence.

I have great memories of the Sango K-Mart. I got all four Classic Pretenders there (with shells, not the carded ones). I got Grandslam/Raindance at that store. Tons of GI Joes in my collection came from there. When I was a kid I lived in tiny Cumberland City, so Clarksville was the go-to place for toys. It is sad to see that store in its current condition. When I last visited Clarksville, I stopped in and noticed it hasn't been renovated since the days of G1. I felt like I had arrived in a TARDIS.

BTW, anyone interested in a group I just started?

Great Escape over in Madison had all three FOC deluxes in stock. TRU in Madison didn't have any new Transformers but they had all of the new TMNT figures except for April and the Foot Ninja.

Not a sighting, but I thought I'd go out on a limb here and ask if any fine folks in Tennessee managed to get an extra Bruticus today from HTS that they would be willing to sell to a fellow collector for cost plus shipping? My wife wasn't able to get one for me today while I was at work.
