Sorry if this is a dumb question (I've been out of it a while), but has the US MP Soundwave been up for sale on the TRU site yet?
I see....well I called today to see if any targets put them out yet or had any on the shelf thanks to someone just throwing out on the shelf, and no luck. All told me they didn't have them in the back and that the transformers figures were being marked down. I'm like, even beast hunters? I was told yes but I went in person and the clearance is only for the bot shots. ....so IDK. Tell them to stock the shelves ASAP! hhahah
For whatever reason, the Targets around here are extremely militant about enforcing the "don't sell anything before the set date" rule, while Targets in other cities couldn't care less. The set date for this stuff is August 4, and while other Targets have had them out for over a week now, I can almost guarantee no Target here will have them out before August 4, and will vehemently deny having them in the stockroom to boot. One of those regional peculiarities, I guess. But they were at least partially right about Beast Hunters stuff going clearance. The Cyberverse Vehicles went two weeks ago and the Weaponizers went late last week. It makes me wonder, as Hasbro just recently revealed the first Weaponizer assortment for Beast Hunters, and there is a new wave of Beast Hunter Cyberverse Vehicles, I think. Will Target even carry these assortments?
Yes, the 18th. Went up around 5:15 or so... and sold out over the next hour. But there will be more, we're told.
Man this stinks......KY sucks with distribution of TF figures. If I had the ability to I would move back to NY. I don't get how targets in indiana can put the new figures out yet KY can't and you got to wait until August 4th at the earliest. Then you have the fact that some of the beast hunters figures from the past wave rarely showed up or haven't been seen at all. I just don't get it. I understand California and NY are major shipping areas with major ports, but how do other states in the middle of the country have the figures out or had them out?
So St Matthews Toys R Us apparently had 2 soundwaves........and they were bought within seconds of opening.
Saw the wave 2 kreons at OLoop Target. Only bought one because it looked like someone stole half of them. Full of empty bags. Some Walgreens have also been carrying them.
Yeah, I think I saw them there Tuesday too. Didn't pay attention to the whether or not the bags were empty though. Took me forever to realize the Legos were all hidden behind the baby and girl stuff. I saw the new technicolor Megatron at the Meijer's on Nicholasville Road today. And the Bed, Bath and Beyond over there was stocked floor to ceiling quite impressively. TRU could learn a lesson from them.
wait, Bed, Bath and Beyond has transformers? I saw all of the triple changers at Meijer yesterday on Nicholasville rd.
So I think TRUs get trucks on Saturdays right? So I live really close to the St Matthews store so I'll be there when they open. If the have MP SW I'll post here and let you know.
Anybody els going to fandom fest tomorrow at the Gault house? Also found nothing new at the stores today.
No... Not that I know of. But there's one next the TRU in Lexington and it's open before 10:00. So, having time to kill, I went in. It's just been a long time since I've seen a store with inventory to the ceiling. It was like being in a Children's Palace for trendy people. I've debated going. I think I'll spend my days cleaning up my garage though. Got a lot of repacking to do. Have fun, man.
The wife and I will both be there. She went today (I had to work) and said it was great. Guess I oughta be going to bed, here, since I gotta get up at like 7:30.
