    MCTCon had a ton of cool toys and friendly faces, highly reccomend.

    I snagged myself an Energon Star Saber team, MW Hubcap, G1 Trypticon, Tow-Line & Skyfire, and a TR Lione!

    The piss patrol is now complete

    There's another convention coming up on May 6th, I highly reccomend checking one out! Manchester is about a 45-50 min drive from me and if you get there before they open (usually 10 am) the roads are generally pretty clear.

    Has anyone seen Minerva or Galaxy Shuttle out in the wild?

    I’m yet to see either in person.

    Nope, haven't seen either in person.
    You can order Minerva from Walgreens.com and have it shipped to your closest store for free. That's what I did.

    I only find Kingdom Red Alert and Earthrise Bluestreak whenever I search Walgreen’s web page.

    Actually I take that back, I googled Walgreens Minerva Transformer and it comes up, but not when I search on Walgreens web page itself.

    Hasbro Generations Legacy Deluxe Class Autobot Minerva Action Figure

    Thanks for getting me to give it a second different try from a different angle.

    The distribution really blows for Legacy. I can't believe that Wild Rider, Dead End and Breakdown aren't readily available. Dragstrip was all over the place and Wave 1 just sat on shelves.

    If someone doesn't stock them, the only alternative may be to chase them online. BBTS says a March restock, but who knows if that's just a placeholder.

    Yeah, Walgreen's website sucks. I've had the same problem looking for items on Target.com. Their own search won't find an item, but a Google search of the item plus the word TARGET finds it.

    Glad you got Minerva.
