    Looks like most of the Houston TRU's got MP SW in today?
    I walked in to the Sugarland store and lucked up on 1 they had 2-3 cases in the video department. The manager did say that there is no refund on them. I hadn't heard that until today though.. either way I have one up for grabs now....If interested PM me.

    Sold.....

    "The manager did say that there is no refund on them."

    well that's a total lie lol what in the hell, you sure you heard him right?

    if they did say that you should have said in response "...i thought this is toys r us, not craigslist"

    Same thing as this time. Got to the page to enter the CC info, hit submit, then was emptied back to the order page, so unfortunately no, I am still on the hunt for one.

    Well, struck out at my local TRU again. Also missed the trickle of stock on the website... So, my offer of my TRU MP-10 (MISB) for your TRU MP Soundwave in the Houston area still stands!

    It's good to at least see that the MP Soundwave is hitting the stores. I also had one in the cart online, but right when I was about to check out, there were none in stock...

    Picked up a Beast Fire (Ultimate) Predaking at Watauga Target. He's a biggie, box is almost as big as MP Soundwave. He was on the aisle with R/C stuff instead of Transformers, one left.

    Also had a BH Arcee and Vertebreak. He looks good, much better in the mold than Lazerback, but I couldn't justify getting that mold again. Maybe if I find it marked down sometime. Too bad I hadn't seen it yet before I grabbed a Lazerback.

    That phantom cart item on TRU.com happened to me on that morning they came out. Very frustrating.

    Ok ..I have been fortunate enough to help a few board members out with MP SW
    and I will be back in the swing of it all this week and next week only
    I am tracking on 3 SW to round out the list I have so far if you want in hit me on PM
    after next week I figure he should be relatively easy to find. Typical in town price is $140
    that's 130 for SW and 10 for gas which isn't bad. If I have located SW.
    After fighting thru scalpers and hoarders the last two weeks I am looking to help others like myself find this thing without getting too frustrated. If you are on my list and find one before I do please let me know so others can have a shot at getting one.
    And to the scalper who snaked me last week.... a big giant middle finger to you for being a D-bag and putting it on ebay!

    That's 3 times today MP Soundwave has left my cart after the CC page. But at least this time my info was already pre-saved. Here's to next time.

    Does anybody know if Soundwave will be released in larger numbers to the point where we can just walk in on a random day and find one? I really don't have the time to go and camp out in front of Toys R Us every week.
