Were there any shops east of DFW (Rowlett, Rockwall, Garland, Richardson, Mesquite, etc) that still have a Nitro Zeus?

 

I saw a couple locally here in San Antonio at Wal Mart, so your best bet will be to check there, especially given they are on clearance for $13 or even lower, depending how your Wal Mart is pricing them.

 

Havent seen Nirto at Rowlett or the wally mart at garland ave and Bush, nor in sachse

 

Lewisville WalMart has Premier Voyager Movie Megatron for $5 in the clearance aisle. I picked up one, and I think there's 2 left.

 

I hate to be “that guy” but have any of you happened to see the walmart exclusive thanos?

 

No studio series thundercracker at 1604/35 forum toysrus. I had an employee check and they had zero in stock

 

Yeah I should've posted here. I checked both the 410 and the Forum with no luck last night. Called 410 this morning and they didn't get any either.


410 Store gave an ETA of mid April however.

 

If you'd like another head in the meantime, for this figure, the Overkill titan master fits very nicely with the mold, and the Five Below off 410 had a couple more as of last night after I grabbed mine. Not sure about the Five Below over in New Braunfels however.

 

Found 1 Hungurrr at Heights Target in Houston. He was the last one. No sign of Elita-1. I'm happy though.   Torso mode is solid. It seems like Houston Targets are slowly getting Wave 2.

 

I seen a whole case at walmart in spring but haven't seen any anywhere else

 

Im in a bit of a dilemma
Since toys r us is liquidating their stores ive seen an snes classic in a store last night and want to get it
However mpm 5 is supposed to be out this month and want to get him since i think he will be one of the rarest mpm since it was toys r us exclusive
Which one should i get i have $80+

 

Stopped at the Five Below in New Braunfels. They have about 6 Ramhorns, a good amount of Overboards (most of the peg), 2 Ptero, and 2 Apeface left if anyone is interested.

 

You guys are great about helping me with these, so....... Thoughts?

Takara Transformers Masterpiece MP-30 Ratchet Authentic Free Shipping | eBay

Seems pretty legit, and it's here in the US. I'm just surprised by the low price...

 

This one...is a maybe. I don't know enough about the Ratchet KO to really say anything, but I do know that the KO falls in about the 40-50 range if I remember right. Since it's coming from the US, i'd say it might just be a pre-owned official someone is trying to sell off.


EDIT: I read the reviews of that particular product from that seller down at the bottom, and it's classifying it as a knockoff, so tread carefully (that is no price to pay for a KO).

 

Well, someone already bought it anyway, so...
I did order Sunstreaker last night, though. Super stoked. But I went through Toy Dojo on Amazon for that one.

 

So that one I’ve been wary of, because I’ve heard of it having similar QC issues as the MP Megatron, people on the Sunstreaker TFW forum have complained about ratchets stripping themselves after a few arm movements if I remember right.

 

I hadn't heard that, but I don't really look, either... That said, I typically just find a pose that suits me, and leave them. They are strictly display pieces. I don't even really take them down and transform them from time to time like I used to. So the joints won't be moving all that much.
Still, I'd be lying if I said you didn't just make me a tiny bit nervous...

 

I'm sure it's maybe a one in so many chance yours will do that. My official Megatron however, it only took a few clicks of the ratchet in the ankle and they were stripped, so I can see where it's likely. The issue that causes this, in the case of Megatron, was diecast gears rubbing on plastic teeth, and in other areas of the figure, it was a much firmer plastic rubbing against a soft gear, in both cases, it eats the ratchet teeth down pretty fast. The THF megatron fixed that by using the same materials for both the ratchet mechanism and the gear itself, so the ratchets wouldn't destroy themselves.

 

Well, here's hoping!

 

Agreed! Because the Sunstreaker design is ingenious.

My concern at the moment is trying to snag a toysrus studio series Thundercracker at a non-scalper price. That is, before Toysrus collapses.
