    Yeah, but if enough of them start popping up, it'll be easier to just sell them, rather than deal with all the collectors coming in and making a stink about it.
    So really it comes down to how quickly they get the word out internally, not to put these on shelves. Personally I'm not holding my breath, but it'd sure be nice.

    Question, how much is Optimus and Bee MPM's? Cause I'm thinking if I don't find them at Toys R Us I can just buy them online. I noticed The Chosen Prime has both in stock but Prime is 134.99 and Bee is 99.99 so I'm wondering how much they are upping the price on them.

    Alright, boys (and girls). To arms!
    There's a seller on eBay running a scam for MPM Bee (yes, I fell for it. Yes, I know I'm stupid). Good news is you can report him without getting duped like me!
    Click "report item" and go from there. Report it as fraudulent. Should only take a minute, and if enough of you help out, eBay will take faster notice, which means I'll get refunded quicker. Thanks in advance!

    :lolol 

    So here's the thing. I was suspicious from the get, but figured heck, it's eBay. I'm protected. So I'm pretty chill about it...
    But then there was the 6-digit tracking number. Um...lolwut? So I messaged him, and he actually responded! And that's when I "knew":

    He insisted that he'd checked the tracking number and it was correct.

    Yeah, ok. No.

    I reported him right then and there. Then I went back today and took a closer look, and noticed the watermark on the pics. It was another seller's user name. WOW. I'd say he's not too bright, but I'm the one (along with 9 others) that actually tried to buy one, so what's that make me?

    Ugh, impatience is an ugly thing, kids...

    Trolling me now? That's not nice... I legit went to your eBay... :redface2:

    Went by Katy Mills Toys R Us and found one lone mpm-03 Bumblebee. Was surprised they had him. No Optimus mpm-04 but they had one mpm-10 left. That was about all they had nothing else new I saw. They had the Justice League multiverse figures but only Batman 4 of them.
