Thats great but you cant count on finding something specific on the shelves of those stores.

 

Correct.

 

I picked up a handful of blackwings this week for some customs. $6 for combiner limbs is pretty hard to pass on

 

I hit up about a dozen FD stores over lunch and manged to find a Ripppersnapper, Novastar, Slug/Slag, and a single Prime master. There are still a few more stores in my area, but for the most part, I found that the majority of these stores didn't have any POTP items, and were really low stocked for toys in general.

 

I think I had to hit half a dozen stores or more to find what I did. I saw novastar, slag, and blackwing as far as pOTP deluxes go and saw the last wave of prime masters. But that was it. No rippersnapper. No other dinobots. No moonracer.

I did pick up some wreckgars and an extra blot at Walgreens on the same day with the BOGO sale they had going on.

All in all, it’s been a good week to get Combiner limbs on sale or clearance.

 

I had a chance to buy some extra Wreck Gars at Walgreens, but there is no kit out there I like yet to customize them, so I let them sit.

 

Maybe not as far as kits go...but toyhax has several sticker options. And @SteamShield has put out a number great looking headsculpts on his shapeways store to help diversify your POTP junkions. So there are some options out there.

 

Found a Trypticon at my local Ross here in San Antonio. Only one I’ve managed to see outside a couple at Burlington a couple months back

 

Wow. Anyone seen POTP Dreadwing?

 

I did not see him there...it seems the Family Dollar stores might have received an odd assortment.

 

i picked up TLK Legion Hot Rod at Ross today.

plus a forcelink 2.0 red A-Wing, Solo/Chewie Mimban two pack. i left 3.75" Tobias Beckett behind since i already have him.

I saw a few at Walgreens when the BOGO offer was on last week, but I think that sale ended on Saturday.

 

Sadly not here. This weird wave of toys that they got is most confusing.

 

ISnt it just wave 4 Deluxes of POTP that they got? With Novastar being the only new mold. If I recall right they got a shipper tray just before Christmas with the final wave of Deluxes and Prime Masters.

Novastar, Slug, Rippersnapper, Blackwing

 

I don't quite recall the wave assortments...you may very well be correct!

 

Quite possibly. I wasn't aware of that case assortment.

 

They got the case of wave 4 POTP. Novastar, Slug, Ripper, and Blackwing was wave 4 assortment.

 

That is an odd lot to put into a Wave.

 

I found Trypticon at a Ross store in Atlanta for $49.99.

 

Agreed. A Dinobot. A Terrorcon. A Cybertronian mode Fembot. And a ‘Powermaster’ decepticon. Quite the assortment.
