    I never ever saw their first SW Black series Prototype Boba Fett in stores...a few of their other SW figures have disappeared fast too..

    A lot of their Marvel exclusives I've barely seen unless I just stumbled on them or specifically heard they were spotted and went into full-on-20-store-hunting-mode...

    their TF exclusives have been generally easy to find once they started saturating though...

    Same here.

    Nope I've had good luck finding most TF exclusives in store, but my time has not been my own lately so this was easier... plus I can help hook up a friend with one.

    much more miss than hit, though the current ones were pretty easy, apparently

    Got mine today from Walgreens.com. Of course the store up the street from my house also got them in today, which worked out because one of the ones I ordered came with half crushed packaging and I was able to do an even swap with one that wasn't crushed.

    This. I placed my order the night it went up after the ordering bugs got worked out. Next day, I found him in one of the local Walgreens. Day after that, Ratchet from Walgreens.com arrives. The latter part was just the opposite though. The Ratchet the store had was beat up but the one that arrived by mail was in pretty good condition overall.

    If it's gone from the site, I guess I'm really lucky I got paid when I did. I put in my order late late last night and got the "shipped" notice email today. I can't wait. He looks so nice!

    Was lucky that my local Walgreens just stocked this guy recently, they had 6 in stock. Got me one and with a 20% off coupon I had and the balance of my rewards points I scored him for about $13 with taxes. Awesome looking bot!!

    So I live in a small community on an island that is pretty close to the middle of no-where and we have two Walgreens here. Last week, one store had 1 Ratchet and another had 6.

    I’ve picked up 2 extra, so if someone needs some help, let me know and we can work it out. I’m a somewhat new contributor to the community (lurked for awhile), but trustworthy.

    I think I’m going to have to contact Walgreens. My Ratchet has been held in the same place by Fedex for four days now.

    There was that one episode of M*A*S*H where Hawkeye was held at gunpoint to do emergency surgery on an enemy soldier.

    ...you don’t suppose there are wounded Decepticons in need of a medic hiding out at FedEx, do you? It would explain a lot about their difficulties with deliveries. :eek:

    Ratchet hit market city in Honolulu today. Was looking for some other things and swung by the toy aisle to check it out . Grabbed another to customize ( got one online ) and left four. Looks like they may have just been put out

    Looks like Ratchet is back up on Walgreen's website for $14.99. Great price for a great figure!
