    TRU Brockton had AOE stuff out. The only things that were missing were the two dinobot deluxes and Leader Grimlock.

    Walmarts in Pittsfield and North Adams still have no AOE stuff out, no idea if they've got any in back because they refuse to look. Target in Lanesboro also has no AOE on shelves or in the stock room. All three have plenty of Generations Whirl/Rhinox if anyone in the area still needs one.

    Nice, thanks! I asked last time but they wouldn't check.
    North Adams Walmart just restocked today...with Wave 3 Generations Deluxes. They must genuinely not have any AoE stuff yet.

    He hasn't hit our distribution center yet, so we have another week or two.

    When I say "our" distribution center I mean the center for the northeast. I do not work at TRU. I had them check this morning when I was trying to hunt one down locally. There system shows that they aren't even at the center yet for order here, so they said one to two weeks. We all know how tru works, so that could mean tomorrow or a month from now.....

    Of course, I hate dealing with TRU directly when it comes to MP figures in the northeast. I had a hell of a time with Prime (like calling stores, being told the item was there and on hold, only to walk in and say it was sold).............at least I got soundwave online via pre-order.

    Let me tell you how much I really wish they put Grim on the site. That stock checker and now pickup in store would be so killer for this.

    When I was traveling down to and staying in Florida for my vacation back then, that's how I tracked down a Soundwave. No store pick up but at least I could see who near/around Orlando had it.

    The Natick/Framingham TRU has........everything. And tonnes of it.

    Every wave one movie figure, all the Popwhateverthey'recalled SD movie figures, all the Platinum Edition figures, and atleast three of EVERYTHING.

    No MP Grimlocks of anything super awesome like that, but I was legit surprised at how crammed full every peg an shelf was. Haven't seen a store like that since I moved to MA.

    A nice deep discounted collectors peice: I picked up TFCC Breakdown from TFSOURCE for 39.95 (50% off) earlier this week and see that he's still available.

    He may be the collectors version of a shelf warmer, but man; mine has tight joints and its a great figure in person.

    For some reason I cant find grimlock while searching the TRU website, but here is a direct link to order him that was posted in the news & rumors thread. 79.99 plus tax free shipping. Limit one per customer. Ordered one and it says it will ship out in one to two business days.

    Not a great price. The price in the store has been $59.99. That's a great price. $79 is okay but is more than the first one went for. I'm sure he was $69 originally.
