    Hey, does anyone remember the name of the knockoff City Commander/Ultra Magnus/Nemesis Prime armor?

    I can't believe how pathetic it is that Wave 2 of Generations isn't more readily available in my area yet. (The Tampa Bay area)

    I got a friggin' Blurr and Dirge this past weekend but I STILL have yet to see a WFC Megs, WFC Soundwave or Darkmount anywhere around here. Lame.

    This weekend is it. If I come out empty handed again, interwebz hookup I guess.
    I really mean it this time. (Unlike last weekend) :D 

    P.S.-If anyone could be so kind as to PM me with a Pinellas location, please do. I'm getting very tired of looking for these three figs and for some reason really don't want to pay more than retail for them.

    Went to the new TRU at Millenia last night. They had 3 Rodimus-eses left, 2 WFC Megatron and 2 Darkmount. I hid the last Ironhide (pm for location). Anyone still looking for Grimlocks, there were plenty there. One last Dirge was in the Super Target in the same plaza.

    Man, I wish they had Dirge in my area! I've tried pretty much every Target and ToysRus in OP and Jax with no luck. Anybody's experience been any different?

    I havent even see the ones you've already got. I'm starting to get that sinking feeling, much like the one that I had with the last 2 universe2.0 legends waves. I'm gonna hit it tonight as well, and I hope to find Red Alert, among others. I really want the WFC figures, but based on what I keep hearing from our Tampa Bay/Pinellas people, those arent around yet. :(  I'm definitely feeling the angst as well. I'm w/ ya. Also, big ups on your KISS play manga Megs avatar, and your slick sig pic. The Beastbox: there is no other.

    I saw the wave 2 PCC 2pks at the CLW Walmart almost 2 mos ago. They had 1 of each, then they were gone. Havent seen them since. Odd. I did see the 2nd wave of the PCC 5 pks last weekend at the Alderman Walmart. $15 each.

    Found a single Battle Blades Prime at the Florida Mall TRU yesterday, but nothing else besides waves 1-4 of those Animated Deluxes. (Seriously wondering why these guys are still around. <.<)

    Oh, and they had a crap ton of those Green Devastators. (They're not selling too well, apparently.)

    Also, I know it's a little bit late, but on Monday the Winter Garden Village Target had a crap load of Blurrs, Dirges, and Red Alerts. Only one WFC Soundwave and WFC Megatron though. (Took the Soundwave, but left the Megatron.) Oddly enough, they didn't have a single Straxus.

    But, like I said, that was on Monday, so there's no telling if any of those guys are left. :/

    I picked Dirge up a little over a week ago at San Jose Target. Also saw him a few days after that at Southside Target and Monument Rd Target. Only thing is all these stores only had 1 each of Dirge and Blurr. He's here just not heavily stocked.

    AV,
    I saw a bunch of Hailstorms at Kohls. I haven't noticed/seen any at Target or Walmart but I don't/haven't looked too hard for him. I'll let you know if/when I do spot him. Oh yeah, I picked up the only Darkmount in your store this afternoon. I used my rewards $5 off coupon and got him for $7 and some change. :D

    Yup. I concur. I think if Gen. Bumblebee, Prime, and Thrust were gone, I'm sure we would be seeing more of the Wave 2. But, they are somewhat peg warming and the other HFTD are crunched in among the Generations so it's hard to put new stuff out.

    The Boot Ranch Target has 2 Red Alerts some tuner Skids, and some Elita-1 action as well. Has anyone confirmed that Elita-1 has intructions for the 3way bike combiner manuever? I'll get her if she does. Also, the Alderman + 19 SuperWalmart in Palm Harbor has wave2 of the PCC 5pks. They are not it the TF section though. There are along back near the garden area entrance. $15 each, too.

    I don't think she does. She's just a Chromia repaint, so combination isn't really successful.

    Agreed. All the stores I spotted the new waves at were not over stocked with wave 1.

    I have all three and still haven't figured out how to combine them successfullly. FYI - There were no instructions included with Elita-1 that illustrated their combined form of how it should be assembled.

    Man, I should've stopped around that area when I was around there. I've called throughout the week with no luck. When does Target usually stock? Anybody had luck with a Wal-mart yet?

    Marshalls outside of Florida Mall has Animated Voyager Prime, Megs, Starscream, Skywarp, Lugnut. They also had a nice chunk of Joe Movie vehicles and figures. Also a batch of Wolverine movie figures.

    All of this were sitting in the checkout section (Front of the store).

    Florida Mall Target...nothing.
    Walmart on John Young and Sandlake...nothing.

    I'm looking for a PRIDE Grand Prix Championship belt (It's gold, not the silver PRIDE belt) and it seems WM and TRU are the only places that MIGHT have it. I've seen the UFC classics belt. I need it for a work project. If anyone sees it in my area let me know. Thanks.
