    Well technically, UM is wave 3 of the leaders. So retail in this case is catching up. And don't feel alone, I still need to catch up on all the latest waves too...

    I found and bought a Thundercracker today as well. The changes made to the mold are fantastic.

    Based on the yellow price tags and font, I'd have to guess Wal-Mart

    My buddy snagged hours from a local Target about a week and a half ago.

    Good to see they're showing up more.

    Yup, those are Walmart tags. So, looks like we will be receiving Thundercracker to some degree at retail. I wonder how it skipped a wave for some locations? Must be due in part to the dock strike on the west coast, I assume.

    Pretty cool to see it at retail, though. New stuff is good stuff! :D

    Hey y'all, I don't have photo proof or anything, but I found a leader class Thundercracker here at my local comic store for retail price! Didn't buy it, but if it's still there on my next weekly visit, I will make sure to pick it up and show a photo.

    At least your Wal-Mart is somewhat clean and organized.

    My local stores just throw product wherever. It always looks like a warzone.
