    Just saw the info on the front page about Frostbite not showing up in wave 8 until April....but I found and bought him from the 280/Inverness Target in Alabama last week actually. He was the ONLY Universe fig they had.

    Cybertron found at Toysrus on hwy31 in Hoover. Picked up the only Ransack, also seen were Jetfire, Dirtboss, Crumplezone, Scattorshot and overhaul. Only 1-2 of each on shelf and no price stickers on pegs yet.

    Any word on when to expect the legends of cybertron/cybertron all stars (what ever they are called)?

    No clue about north Alabama. Here in central we are covered over in Ravage and Windcharger. I have yet to see Wheeljack.

    I hope you enjoy your trip.

    Florence TRU has Cybertron including the basics and Vector Prime, Flame Convoy, and Crumplezone (voyager class???) Didn't have the ones I want though... I need the Hasbro exclusives...:banghead: 

    The Target there also had two Shockblasts...

    Saw the Alternator 2 pack (Smokescreen/Sideswipe) at the TRU in Hoover. There were a ton of them (about 8-10 sets). Any bets on how long it takes to unload this lot?

    I was at TRU Hoover yesterday and they had all scouts, all deluxes, some voyagers, and several Starscreams (lots of all classes). No leaders but the shelfs were marked for them. I picked up a Starscream as he is the main focus of my collecting. The Alternator 2packs seem to be doing better than I expected as they only had 2 sets left of 12 from a couple of weeks ago.

    I have yet to see anything in Walmart and such as of yet.

    Is there any word yet as to where and when the LOC's will show up?

    Found a new case of Cyb Scouts at the Auburn WM last night and grabbed Brakedown GTS. The case also had the Giant Planet MC's, Ransack GTS and yellow Scrapmetal, all one per case.

    Target (Trussville) had ONE Classics Megatron, but no Prime. Odd thing is they didn't have a spot for them, I just happened to find Classic gun megatron off to the side somewhere else...Roebuck Walmart had nothing new... well they had Cyro Scourge, but that was all they had...both stores had the Classic Prime 3" Titanium figure. Target now has nearly all Transformers on sale including Alternators for $2 less at $17.99 each and Cybertron Primus for $41.39 or some wierd price like that instead of the normal $49.99.

    Yeah, my cousin found Optimal Optimus and Scourge at the TRU in Hoover... the Wal Mart in Roebuck by me must've had them too, I only saw Optimal Optimus and bought him recently... this past Thursday actually. TRU in Hoover is really lloking like they're trying to keep their stuck full for the Christmas buying rush.

    Well, the Wal Msrt in Roebuck, I found this past weekend, Titanium - RID Prime, Rodimus, Starscream, but no Soundwave. I bought Starscream, my cousin picked up Rodimus. The more I look at RID Prime finally in person, I'm just not stoked about it when I saw it here online... maybe it's the vehicle mode. Still need to go back and buy a Scourge. The same Wal Mart also had 3 Alt Primes for the past 3-4 weeks, they had one left all last week, until somebody finally bought it around Thrusday or so. (no wasn't me...).

    Found Movie Preview Prime and Starscream at the Huntsville Toy R US today. They still had at least five of each left.
