    Sounds cool. TRU has a ton of leader primes cheaper than walmart at 39.99.

    sorry...but no Leader Megatron...

    new things i've noticed there though was TF Unleashed Bumblebee (bunch of them) and 1x Prime 2-pack (Movie Prime and i guess Classics Prime) which was in the kiddy TF section.

    Hello!
    I just moved from Arizona to Ewa Beach on Oahu and wanted to say hello. Just wondering how Hawaii is for Transformers. Are they plentiful and pretty easy to find? I checked a few of the Wal-Marts near me and didn't really see anything on the shelves. Is this just a bad time or am I better off ordering them from the internet? I moved here because of work, and so far I am loving it. I just hope that I will be able to keep up my collecting while I am here. So hello again!

    Welcome to the island. I live in Pearl City. Transformers are stocked by all the major stores but the problem is supply. They just sell out too fast. We also tend to get stuff later than everyone else. The only exception to this was the release of movie toys. Hope this helps. Happy hunting!

    Thanks in advance.

    K-Mart on Maui has RotF Longhaul and Grindor, one of each. No Minicon or Legends exclusives. Go get 'em. ;-)

    Generations Dirge, Blurr, and Red Alert

    Hawaii finally got em in. I purchased Dirge and Red Alert in Keamouku(sp) Wal-mart. Both were $10.35 a piece. Not bad.

    I was in Oahu with my wife and kids last week and found Blurr. They had two Blurr's and one Ramjet last week in the Walmart in Oahu. Can't remember the street it was on.

    Picked up a Red ALert at a Target too.

    I regret not picking up Blurr when I had the chance. I was a little put off by his design since he didn't look like the G1 Blurr though this new design is supposed to be his revamp one. I only saw him once and that was it. I see alot of Red Alerts but even Dirge seems scarce.

    Ramjet? Really? I had to get him at Edbombers for 26. I wish I saw this post earlier.

    Not so much a toy, but my local wal-mart is getting rid of TF: WFC PS 3 for $15. They got quite a bit of copies. Good gift for the holidays if anybody is in town.

    Salt Lake Target had loads of RTS figures minus Grappel, Lugnut, and Windcharger. My friend picked up Kup and Scourge the other day. I missed them both. I finally got Blurr though.

    The Kapolei Target is about the same. All of the figures there are on clearance which doesn't bode to well for the newer waves to show up. I am still desperately looking for Kup and Scourge.
