    The TRU at Southridge has Employees who work against you getting the toys. If you want someone to order it for you and ship it to your home, you will need to approach one of the older ladies there.

    Don't even try to get any of the guys to sell you Transformers unless it's out of the trunk of their car. They won't even be honest with you most of the time about what the store can actually do as far as ordering stuff and sending it to your house. THey have full capability to order it on their computer at the service desk and have it mailed to your home. THat's how I got TC. BUT you will need to talk to one of the adults like I said and if the younger girl is at the service desk don't bother with it because she runs Transformers out of the store for her boyfriend.

    I had to talk to a manager once because she kept telling me that they couldn't order the GDOs with the system and ship them to my home even though the entire assortment was up on her monitor, which she must have thought I couldn't see. The Manager came right over and did it right in front of her...

    And a hint? Those dudes who work there will have already used the order number trick themselves to hoard Barborsville's MP Soundwaves just like they did Mp Optimus. I guarantee you by now that doing the zip code search thing as Siebertron is suggesting will show that ALL the TRUs around here are out, thanks to Spectacles McRudebald and Skinnicus Plastichands.

    Haven't seen them either. But I did run out to Southridge Target today and found some Predacon Rising stuff. They had like 5 of the smokescreen vs cindasaur set and Prime vs Predaking set. 3 skylynx and 1 Darksteel. I got one of the smokescreen sets. No abominus though...

    Sorry for the double post. In fact, someone can delete my prior one. The target at university town center here in Morgantown did its restock. They had most of the predacons rising stuff that people on the boards have been reporting as well as the wave 3 Kreon microchangers which I grabbed.

    There's plenty of Abominus gift sets here so unless anyone's wanting to keep it MISB, I'm happy to sell the set I grabbed over the weekend in DC to someone in WV. It'll come loose but with everything in the box. Just shoot be a PM on here.

    Oh and nothing to report at the Walmart up the road. Have yet to see the FoC Wreckers here.

    Head to the Southridge TRU RIGHT NOW to get Mp Acid Storm and Soundwave if you are buying them. I didn't get any bc I no longer collect Mps until they are no longer TRU exclusives so I of course left them there.

    PS Oh, by the way, there was only ONE Soundwave.

    Please be careful and don't speed up there to get him bc everyone else up there drives like they are completely insane already.

    whole lot of nothing much exciting at the Walmart just off I-68 here in Morgantown. a couple Grimwings, 1 magnus and a couple voyager Beast Hunters Primes were the voyagers. no new generations stuff.

    Did manage to grab Cyberverse Shockwave though. Grabbed Huffer too cause i like the mold (but will likely call him something else on my shelf)

    was at the Target here in town again yesterday picking some stuff up for a class this semester. not much new to report from last time, though they did have a lot of the same stock as the I-68 walmart here in Morgantown.

    There were several abominus sets still. The only real new thing was several Grimwings and a couple Generations Sandstorms if anyone's still looking for him

    Hey everyone from the Charleston area:

    I have two Idw Megatrons for sale. One loose and one misb. Now be warned, I am selling these off because of the recurring and seemingly unavoidable QC issue with the thighs having horrible stress marks where the ball joint connects. I have seen 5 of these toys and every single one had them IN PACKAGE. I have a receipt from the original purchase so I can get my money back for them but I wanted to give anyone who wants this toy a chance first.

    I actually have two misb but no one is going to want the one that has a giant gash on his face, bent chest panel, red paint explosions AND stressed thighs clearly visible through the packaging, LOL!

    Loose one is 13 bucks and the MISB is 16

    Did you find these in a local store or did you order them off the internet?

    I saw 2 IDW TCs and 1 IDW BB tonight at the Charlestown Walmart. First time I have ever seen the new IDW figures on the pegs.

    I think by TC he meant Trailcutter, not Thundercracker. As much as I would like it to be Thundercracker.

    In my experience....they suck. Walmart is better and we know how great that is. Check em every now and then. Seems like they are carrying more of the constructabot stuff than walmart. Pick up a Soundwave walmart doesnt even seem to carry.
