    6:16pm. Real time update.

    I went after work with little expectations but was surprised to see an unopened case in the isle.

    I stopped by there around 5:30-6 last night. Saw the MP-TC's, & GDO scouts. Did you grab the Entertainment Pack? I already have one from Canada so I left it behind. There was no sign on MP Prime for me either. That store is difficult cause I know for a fact scalpers stalk it. Been there & Orland a few times at open and they are like freakin vultures.

    Thanks for the update. I just didn't want someone to make a trip there for nothing if it was spotted in the morning. I was there at 4pm and saw no MP Primes there.

    That's funny. My nephew and I had a pushy asian lady poking around by the TF's in North Riverside a few days ago.

    Might be going to North Riverside tomorrow, depends if I'm going to Oak Brook. If I do, I'll try to check out TJMaxx for some bargains on figs I missed out on. Life is unpredictable when your fourteen, since wherever I go, my little bro goes.

    Has it gotten any better? Last time I went it was a sad, sad mess with leftover DOTM deluxes, so much the pegs fall off when you try to look through them....

    Yeah, those pegs are driving me crazy! Can't believe they haven't gotten rid of them yet. DOTM all over pegs and the overheads and a crapload of voyagers too.

    A MASSIVE mess.

    I guess you could say I have a thing for flying wing designs. It helps that each of those molds are pretty good too.

    think it'll start popping up more frequently and in bigger quantities pretty soon. they haven't even sent out the preorders yet.

    meanwhile mp tc is nearly everywhere and people going nuts for that last month.

    I don't think I've seen this posted around here...

    The South Elgin Target had the new wave of Rescue Bots. I left Blades and Boulder since I have them, but I picked up the new figs: Medix and Hoist.
