    I remember when Star Wars Ep1 toys were released at the midnight TRU event. The TRU I was at had a fist fight in the store and the one my friends were at had a stabbing.

    I love these toys as much as the rest of us here, but man some people put to much value in them.

    I have $175 for anyone that can help me get a MP Soundwave.
    I travel from Westminster to the North Gate Area for work and I cannot get to a TRU when they are in stock...

    Really makes me wish my guy at TRU hadn't taken a different job.

    Just an FYI...if you're able to call TRU in Thornton at 10am on Thursday mornings...they'll hold one for you until they close.

    Its my understanding that Westminster TRU truck day is Friday, stock to be out on the shelf come Saturday morning. Thornton...Thursday truck, out on the shelf by opening on Friday.

    Duly noted, next time I'm in the area. Checked with them last week, the employee I talked to said they received all of two, gone within five minutes.

    On a more positive note, Generations 30th wave 1 found at the Longmont SuperTarget. Picked up Orion and Trailbreaker, left 2x Bumblebee, no Megatrons in evidence. Based on what else I've seen, it appears my area has skipped the Wreckers/Ruinations wave of Generations entirely.

    Everyone was mature and courteous about the situation. I was first in line and we all strolled over there like normal-looking human beings... well, as normal as 4 grown men in a toy store moving in a controlled mini-mob can look.

    don't lie, jetrobo, there were elbows being thrown all over the place. i was tempted to start ripping off ears from those i knocked over in conquest, but i lost my taste for blood when no soundwaves were to be had

    We ate one guy. At the end of the battle it was just Jetrobo, ssg4life and I whom came out alive. All for nothing. watch out at the Countyline TRU or you might be consumed for nothing.

    Looks like that is the big thing for SW. It looks like those who bought the overseas SW only want the TRU version for the tapes themselves, then they sell what they don't want for a ridiculous amount to get there money back and then some.

    Hey fuzzyprime, what time were up there today?
