i really wish all people were that considerate, but we live in a world with so many assholes it's ridiculous. people that just want to get these things and sell them on ebay. if you guys have checked out the california sightings thread.. you'll know what i'm talking about.
Sheesh, I went and checked when you said something. I stopped reading when I hit triple digits for vehicons. Well Grove city target and Graceland target have no wave 3. Hopefully this week central Ohio will get some.
Also keep in mind, that troopbuilding, doesn't necessarily mean they are building a massive army. Like those who aim to get 2 or 3, as compared to the ones who hoarde a lot more. Kinda like me, in the end I aim to attain 3 total, and that's it. I already have 2, one found at retail, the other through BBTS. Again, I would say I am far from hoarding, that is for sure. So, I kindly ask that people don't label me the same as those who grab every Vehicon they see. Besides, with the amount of Arcee and Ratchets popping up in stores, I am sure we are gonna see plenty of these too. Look at Soundwave, we had 1 a case and now, I see him all over still.
Oh of course not. You're doing the "right" thing, getting one at a time from different places. Thats totes okay. But also, theres only one soundwave in the show, these are the army builder. And soundwave was repacked, Vehicon isnt sheduled to get a repack right now.
Which is understandable. I don't wanna make anyone lose out on these figures any more than the next guy. So, I limit myself to how many I wanted, a nice low number, and from then on, ignore them when I see them. The Jet Vehicon is another example, I preordered 2 from Tak, so, that way, even if they DO show up in US retail, I will be ahead of the game, and may or may not need just 1 more.
Of course I actually wasn't referring to you- but I think if people find two on the pegs they whould just get one for the moment. I think that's the fairest for distribution as it may take some time for that store to restock. And unlike soundwave, arcee, or ratchet- vehicon is a troop builder figure and prone to be much less on shelves- which is a shame for people like me who only want one and have stores that seem unwilling to restock as it is. I think most of this would rather this not turn into a rengades storm shadow case (well in my case) where the reason I was never able to get him was because people were buying more than one while I was unable to get my hands on any.
Thanks to Optimalzeromus from the PA sightings forum I now have Hot Shot and Knock out as well as the bot shot series 1 Nemesis Prime/Megatron/Acid Storm supervalue pack as a going away/birthday present! thanks brooks!
As of the time of this posting Canton Target has Evac, Soundwave, Mirage, and Breakdown Legion size figures on peg.
Target and TRU Western Hills....saturated with Wave 1 and 2 on Prime stuff.... I'm pulling out of this anyway.....I'm better off ordering online and then have to pay rediculous shipping prices so I'm calling it. Sold my 5 figs and shapesways kit.... I'll still keep an eye out for everyone tho. Judt cuz I'm not buying doesn't mean I'm not a huge fan. My money id going into 40k anyway..lol Leave me PM's or a list of things everyone is looking for and I'll hide or SNAG if you need it.
You'll be back. I think one on here more most people is just Wave 3, being Knock-out and a couple of Vehicons. Still no sign of Wave 3 in Columbus.
What are the most of you guys looking for right now in TFPrime. I'll be hitting several Wally's during our inventory weeks here in C-Bus. Being a mgr I'll be in back rooms. Glad to help all out.
Deluxe Vehicon is the most sought after in the new wave but pretty much any sighting of wave 3 deluxe and wave 2 voyager is worth mentioning.
