    So it sounds like when you say "I mean Predaking" what you're really saying is "I'd really love it to be CW Predaking despite all evidence pointing to Devastator and the Combiner Hunters", and "don't misread my post as having any inside info about it being Predaking as I have none". Is that correct?

    Pretty good in my experience, I've been able to show prices off my phone for them to match. One time I showed them a picture of a completely different transformer (both were Combiner Wars and both were the same class size) and got them to price match with no questions whatsoever. Of course your mileage may vary, but I frequent the Hayward TRU and the Pleasant Hill TRU. I've had success at both.

    Never had an issue. Like rctan9 said you can show them your phone, a print ad or they can even look it up online on their computers. Some look closely to every little detail, some just glance and do the override.

    I guess I should add that when I try to price match deluxe class figures from $19.99 to the $9.99-14.99 range, they never say anything. When I tried to match a MP figure from like $99.99 to something like $74.99, they looked a little bit more at my phone before giving it to me - so the value of the toy might be rellevant.

    I usually just hold onto the figure I want while in the store, and then start going through my phone to find the cheapest price. I usually go to Walmart, Amazon, Target and K-Mart and select the best price I can find. This is assuming I don't already know of a previous sale. Like if Walmart was doing 25% off or something, I would already have had the walmart page loaded up before even walking into TRU.

    But here is who they will price match, quoted from their site:

    "We will match prices from selected online competitor websites, including Walmart.com, Target.com, BestBuy.com, Sears.com, Kmart.com, buybuyBaby.com, Meijer.com, FredMeyer.com, diapers.com, BabyDepot.com, LEGO.com and Amazon.com (not including marketplace pricing)."

    Thanks for the advice fellas on the TRU price match. As of right now TRU is the only one carrying anything Im looking for and no one else has anything so I figured Id give it a shot.

    Anyone seen a Motormaster at an OC Target/Walmart lately?
    I saw one at Anaheim Target, but it's gone now. Walmart down the street barely has any tfs.
