    Doesnt seem like it. It took about 3 wks before the Darkwing/Countdown excl. figures came by us after they got "released". I'm thinking maybe another 2wks tops before we see the 2 new ones at either of the TRUs by us. BTW, how r things?

    Picked up the Mixmaster vs. Hoist pack from the TRU in Altamonte, there is one left. What is up with Mixmasters new head? It looks like he is related to Skids and Mudflap!
    They also had a ton of Universe Inferno and If anyone is still looking, 1 Animated Wreck-gar and Shockwave. No Reissues yet.

    all right, went to gulf coast town center yesterday with the wife and daughter. the marshalls had a few unleashed megatrons from the 1st movie for $15. they also had 3-4 wreck-gars, atomic lugs, and battle scenes for $13 each. i also picked up a g1 autobot skin kit for nintendo ds for $7, it has 24 diferent skins, the day before i got one for psp. those are at ross. very cool if you have either system. the art is great and it includes a great case to protect. p.s. they also have tf movie kits for ds, psp, and wii.

    Yeah, I figured as much. I just know that if these new reissues are anything like the 2007 G1 Soundwave, I'll maybe get 1 opportunity, as the TRU website is laughable when it comes to these. If they ever restock I'd be surprised.

    Thanks for the heads up on the voyager sale. I went and finally picked up stratosphere. I had been holding off on him because I felt he just didn't merit $20. But I tell you what, he turned out to be a much better figure than I thought he would be. If you can just overlook his huge odd feet. I think I am gonna just see if I can maybe mod them.

    Hit the Kmart in Dunedin last night to take advantage of the TF sale, and they have all kinds of action in there. They have the legends excl. set as well as the new minicon set. They also have HA Skids, as well as Long Haul, Jolt, The Twins, and Jetfire. I picked up ldr. Prime for $30. I almost got HA Skids too for $30 - on sale. Walmart has all of the HA line for just under $30 all day, so I decided to wait. Pinellas Park S.Walmart has a TON of the Fearswoop sets, as well as ROTF voyagers for $14. Almost picked up Megatron, but was really looking for Grindor. I'll put $14 on a Silver Blackout for my Destron Air-Force. Will definitely get the Fearswoop set once it hits clearance. This Walmart also has the universe2.0 re-paints. The Silverbolt re-paint looks interesting, and will probably also join the ranks of my Destron Air-Force. Walmart has ROTF on Blu-Ray, 2disk action for only $20. Looks freaking amazing!!!!!! Watched in last night and was blown away!! Anxiously awaiting the TRU re-issues.

    Is it ridiculous that I STILL haven't seen Jolt? I go to two different Targets, two different Wal-Marts, a K-Mart, and a Toys 'R' Us every single day, and for the last two months, it's been the exact same toys on the pegs, untouched.

    If possible, try Kohl's. Even if they didn't have that wave a bit ago, like mine didn't, they're putting out lots of Transformers for Christmas. I've seen a bunch of Jolts, Arcees, and Twins for 9.99.

    Just got back from my former rounds around Brandon.

    Kmart had about 15 of the new mini-con 12 pack. they were on an endcap away from the TF area.
    Both Targets (mall and Bloomingdale) had at least 6 Longhauls and Grindors.
    Wal-mart on Causeway had Leaders with the bonus camshaft for $35.

    TRU had nothing new and I asked about the 25th Anniv. exclusives and only got tilted- head looks and cricket chirping. After my annoying persistence, they checked their database but nothing was there.

    Commemerative Series should arrive this week in most Florida stores. We got ours at the Wesley Chapel store on Saturday. It appears there are 2 of each set to a case. We only recieved one case and there are none left at the store.

    In other news, I picked up the TF:ROTF game for the PS3 for $9.00 at a Blockbuster that was closing.

    Wow. Only one case? These are going to be tough to come by. I'm on the fence about getting them since I already have the TFC releases. How much are they selling for?

    Yeah, I picked these guys up there on Sunday.

    Someone there checked the system and showed me that there are pending another shipment on the next truck. That date was today but when I called I was told it is now showing for next week. So keep an eye out if you want them.
