    Wal Mart Indian Trail has the new set of prime deluxes including 1 each of rumble and kup and 2 vehicons; HOWEVER, the boxes are ALL badly damaged to the point of the cardboard being badly bent, and the damage was bad enough to have actually opened a couple of the boxes. It also looks like they received a new set of prime voyagers, but the dreadwing was already gone.

    Gracious, it'd break my heart for TRU to have to open the case and sell toys! vbann, you should just get some DotM stuff that's regular price that's been hanging there for going on two years now! /sarcasm

    Cary Target had a bunch of cases of toys. Sadly, none of them contained Transformers. I think they've had the same remains of a Wave 1 case on the pegs since March.

    Lol I wasn't pushy about it or anything...asked one guy out on the floor I told him what it was I thought was in the box and he got a attitude and said whatever it was in the case was already on the floor...then I asked someone else more pleasant if they could check the case for me and she said they simply aren't allowed to unless there is space for them on the pegs(which there wasn't) so I just left it alone. I'll probably check back in another day or so...but if anyone else wants to try their luck then by all means GO! Lol :)

    Yeah, I just swung by the GSO TRU today. I didn't notice any generations cases, but but did have like 5 MP Thundercrackers. And a shitload of DOTM and wave 1 FOC and PRID Bumblebees that are never gonna sell. =/

    put all the peg stuff in your cart, push it to the doll aisle, then ask again.

    Also, when I went to TRU, I stumbled across a Star Wars Rebel Pilot 5-pack. I stared at it, puzzled for a moment. "Hmm, that's odd. They all look like 90's POTF2 figures. Is Hasbro really re-releasing these?" Then I saw another one, but with modern figures, and I realized this one had been opened and returned. Huh. I wonder who did that.

    yeah i went there today. the case was open but nothing was taken out. as soon as i looked at it and then put it back and then two employees came back there bc someone called about them and i guess they sold them to whoever called. my advice is to just call and ask them if they have them. every time i do the people are nice and hold it for me and i pick it up

    At TRU if I see unopened cases of something I want, I get them down (using lightsabers if necessary) and open them with my keys. They've never cared because their employees aren't paid enough to care. I did work for them.

    Dear dude who I saw leaving TRU Cary this morning with a look of disappointment on your face, I feel your pain as well. That's my sighting for the day.

    Don't even bother checking out the new Wal-mart on 55 and High House Rd. It's nothing but a grocery store. *sigh*
