    I would caution against Lio Convoy. Fragile, thin little tabs for the robot mode's chest. Paint was also flaking like before I took the figure out of the plastic tray. Avoid at all costs.

    YMMV

    I've treated mine like garbage ever since taking him out of the box. He's been laying half transformed on my daughter's train table for over a year, face down.

    Just brought him to the beach to show my buddy and his kids tossed it around like a ragdoll. Currently in my trunk just carelessly tossed in a box.

    No paint chipping, no breakage. Perfectly fine.

    Popfindr is saying Levittown Target has 2 Arks in stock. A bit far for me to drive and check.

    My college point target had nothing. No TFs whatsoever. I’ll check back this weekend. Looking for tracks, slag, rhinox or rodimus. There was a grindor at this location last weekend so they probably come back for those looking for studio series

    Check out the MP-48 Lio-Convoy thread. It will give you better insight about the figure. I have had no issues with mine except for some very minor paint chipping. Only noticeable when seen extremely close up. It's a solid figure and goes well with the other BW MP's.

    When the fuck are all the targets going to reset? They're practically barren at this point plus we know they most likely have Origins Bee and Worlds Collide in the back. Wouldn't mind getting Rodimus and Slug at this point either too.

    Yeah my closest Target has looked like a wasteland for weeks now. They’re really taking their time with new product on the shelves.

    They're already sold out as of today, so I'd advise against it

    I saw Henrietta Target starting to do a reset yesterday. It wont be ready for a few days. I did spot the boxes for new ML Infinity saga Odin.
