    Opelika Target has TR Octone and Blitzwing. They also still have singles of the voyager TR Optimus and Broadside. As far as TR deluxes go, Kup, Twinferno, Chromedome, Blurr, Highbrow, and a popular other wave 1.

    A few days late, but late last week I found the TRU Megatron (stealth bomber), and that other -tron (forgot his name) at the Hoover TRU. Picked up Megs since I like that mold.

    Then later that afternoon I found Octone and Blitzwing at the Target down 150 past the Hoover Met. They had 4 of each. This was on Thursday, though, so I couldn't say what's there now.

    While I was working today, I overheard a guy lecturing his son in the TF aisle on the importance of reading sales signs thoroughly (LOL) while holding one of those big blue and orange bots. Was that you? I've been hoping that I would have met someone from the boards in person by now working at TRU, but have yet to do so as far as I know. Y'all should definitely introduce yourself to anyone who works at the Huntsville TRU with brown hair, a beard, and a name tag says Ryan. Just saying.

    Also, we just put out the TRU exclusive Marvel Legends Spider-man 2 pack of Homecoming Spidey and Iron Man repaints if anyone cares about that. It's hiding with the Spidey toys and not the other Legends figures FYI.

    Yah, that wasn't me. I got to the store yesterday at 4:15 PM. I have to ask what the hell happened to the 6 inch 40th Anniversary Black series figures? I lot of other TRU stores got them in but the Huntsville TRU. The ones I am looking for are from wave 2 these are the Death Squad Commander, The Jawa, Sand People, Stromtrooper C-3PO and Chewbacca. I saw on other forums other stores have been getting them in and 2 cases at some stores. If the Huntsville store is a flagship store they are not showing it.

    I was there until 5:00. We must have just missed each other then. About the Black series figures though, the truth about the Huntsville store is that it is not considered a flagship store by corporate and that's why we don't have them. :(  I was talking to one of the managers one time about why we don't seem to get a lot of stock exclusive toys and he told me that. If I remember correctly, I think he told me a story about them having to drive to another store to pick up a case of the exclusive figures when The Force Awakens came out because corporate wouldn't send us any and customers kept demanding them. (Weird, right?:rolleyes: ) I know I saw about a case of the first wave of the carded anniversary figures a month ago but that's all i've ever seen.
