    Drove out to St Pete. They checked the computer. They show up in the computer but none in stock anywhere around here they said.

    Ugh, that is a sad day. I guess I will man up and start calling the ones around here and see if they have any idea to deliveries.

    Off-topic: Are you gonna have a booth at Megacon or be attending this year? I remember you saying you had a booth @ tinycon or whatever the tampa con was :p

    Thanks. It was actually supposed to be ifightfortheusers though. It got cut short. I have a feeling I am SOL on FE Voyager Prime. I only want Decepticons from RID. Soundwave and Vehicons.

    so with the RID prime toys, these will also be released at other retailers besides TRU, such as Target and Walmart, right?

    I found evidence of someone buying them from Target.

    So they are shipping to all retailers now I suppose. I have been finding lots of new Star Wars stuff.

    Yup, I figured the end of your username got cut off. Big Tron fan myself. Anyway, I'm disappointed the FE Voyagers didn't turn up when they were expected to, but I'm not too worried that they'll never show up. I figure once stores start clearing out that slew of Cyberverse sets and Human Alliance Skids and Roadbuster, we'll start seeing them. Just because they were a sort of "Preview" wave doesn't necessarily mean they had to sell all of them before the mainline. I seem to recall various preview waves turning up for some time in other TF lines. Worst case: Prime and Bulkhead will turn up at Ross and TJ Maxx for half price somewhere down the line :thumbs2:

    I think I might hold off on this line as well. I dunno, there's so much good third party stuff coming out.. I really just want more G1/IDW-inspired characters..

    Hey, I just wanted to let those of you who were still looking for an RTS Prime, Wreck-Gar, or Perceptor, I've got a few for sale to help cover my dad's eye surgery. $2 discount for all the Florida guys! Unfortunately, I can't hand-deliver them at Mega; I'm not going to be able to make it down, it looks like, and if I do, it'll be to meet with a client who will be in town for it.

    Also, Ocala, as usual, has absolutely nothing new, and doesn't even have much of the old stuff. One of the Wal-Marts I checked had a total of six Deluxe figures between Movie and Generations.

    Went to one of my favorite stores a bit ago and bought a transformers rescue force red jet which is still MOSC and a RID movor for$10 each. Its a cool store and if y'all get over to the Florida Mall its in there. Its called A2Z Toys. The rescue force fig looks cool and its not everyday you van walk into.a store and pick up a MOSC European Transformer. :)

    Not exactly sure what all were bringing at this point. I have not done this show since 2003. We'll have plenty of Transformers of course from G1 to modern. We will also have super hero stuff like Marvel Legends, DC Universe, etc. Then probably some of the usual toy lines like star wars, gi joe, and so on. We also have some other toys like Dino Riders, Robotech, ExoSquad, and Brave. Not sure if we will be able to bring it all, but should have a pretty good mix of stuff.

    Robotech!? Oh man, I will be there. Anything you look for in trades in particular? I got some stuff I just don't have room for display. And when I head over who should I ask for? :p

    Oh! Speaking of Dino Riders: have you guys seen the new line of Imaginext Dinosaurs? They're reissuing their dinosaur toys with weapons platforms, saddles, and armor. They all also even have control helmets and little sci-fi pilots! It's exactly the exact polar opposite of a gritty reboot of Dino Riders 8)
