    If anyone wants Grimlock and doesn't feel like hunting for it then head on over to TRU.com as he is in stock and has been for a few hours.

    Edit: No add to cart button for Grimlock. They are just screwing with us now.

    Baxley Wal-Mart:

    Too many wave 1 PCC singles and HFTD(Autobot Alliance) Deluxe as they are falling off the pegs.
    1x each wave 2 PCC 5-packs.

    Have to agree with you there. If I couldn't get in on a media pass, I probably wouldn't go. 4-day passes are $100, and a freaking 1-day pass for Saturday only is $50.

    Yeah, I'd like to hear their staff explain what justifies that "one time staff registration fee of $20." You get...what, a t-shirt and maybe entrance to some VIP stuff for that, plus you're working 5 hours a day? That's not right.

    Edit: Correction: volunteers get t-shirts for half-off retail price. WTF?

    And a lot of attendees are still ticked that they no longer offer online purchase for advance tickets. And even if you pre-register, you still have to wait through long lines just to pick up your badge.

    Ebay:
    Found Animated Rodimus, Ironhide, and Grimlock. Though I think me and the other collector that was at the location I visited today (1 of 4 TRU's I now have access to thanks to college) got the only two Grimlock's that were out (but they may have more in the back). PM me for location IF YOU POST OFTEN IN THE THREAD. No scalpers! They still had at least 3 Rodimus and 2 Ironhides as of 45 min ago.

    Oh, and my inbox is nearly full, so if you send a PM and get a "full" message, that's why.

    Found Grimlock in Northpoin TRU... I do not normally do this, but with all the scalper talk, I hid the last one... pm me for location. As the other before, make sure you have postings :) 

    i was so excited I did not even look for Ironhide or Rodimus.

    Well, Rodimus Minor is awesome! My only complaint is that mine's waist seems to detach very easily. Anyone else have similar issues?

    I'm going to call tomorrow to try to find them. One of the three I am going to check already told me they don't have them. Maybe tomorrow.

    I forgot to post that BB Optimus Prime and Banzaitron are there but just one each. The PCC 5-packs wave 2 are still there.

    Went to the Smyrna TRU yesterday. Still nothing new. The Target in Smyrna has put out all their new stuff though including lots of HA Jazz.

    The Toys R Us I visited today said there were three Grimlock on the shelves, I couldn't find one... just an empty space.

    I just got back from there and didn't see one but I wasn't really looking for it either. I can say there are no Rodimus Minors either as I got the last one.

    Edit: I would also like to thank you Metal Chaos as it was one of your posts in one of the Grimlock threads that let me know that TRU was still open. Awhile back I called and didn't get an answer or even the menu recording so I thought it was closed.

    Edit: My Ironhide has two left "hammer hands" (the little silver defibrillator things). Maybe one day I should track one down with two rights.:lol
