    So a buddy of mine works at TRU and said they have him in back...but the bigger surprise is that he says they also have Skidz w/ Mikela in the case as well....

    Could this be true??

    Im heading out there tonight so hopefully tonight or tomorrow I might have a surprise for us all.

    Keep your fingers crossed...

    I found one at the Kansas City K-Mart (Noland Rd.) today. They had two. This figure is AMAZING!

    I was wondering if this was a KMart exclusive. I'm glad to see it's not.

    Any word on the Skids and Mikaela? I don't think I'd be able to contain myself if I knew they were out. Might as well kiss another 40 bucks goodbye. :D

    So I just called and checked all TRU in my area and NONE have them. So I think my buddy was just messing with me. Sorry to get everyone's hopes up.

    Looks like only BB is out right now.

    Not anymore.

    Human Alliance Bumblebee is currently instock and ships in one business day. I ordered one at about 11:45 this evening, and it says he's expected to ship tomorrow.

    I'll let you know if it works. (Should have the tracking information Wednesday.)

    TRANSFORMERS Movie 2: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN - HUMAN ALLIANCE BUMBLEBEE and Sam Witwicky - Product Detail
    BTW...the bktf09 code works on him. Got him for $31 and change, free shipping!

    My last order from HTS arrived in THREE days. :D 
    Mixmaster's already shipped and I'll have the tracking information tomorrow. (I'd imagine he'll be here in three as well.)

    Yeah, they should be shipping Tuesday for the HA Bumblebee.

    I had one pre-ordered and decided I didn't want it; called to cancel today and was told it was already being prepared for shipment.

    I'd echo what AnimatedFan said and just order it online if you want it, particularly since the free shipping code is still active.

    That's awesome news! :D  That means I'll have THREE* kickass figures this weekend. *weeps openly*


    *= Might as well include Sam in the list, since he comes with Bumbles. On his own, however...

    Got one today at K-Mart. This figure is AMAZING! If you don't get any others (which I hope you do), it looks like the Human Alliance will be the ones to get. My K-Mart also said they should be recieving a shipment Human Alliance Sideswipe within a month's time.

    And am I the only one who wants a Mustache Man and Starscream Human Alliance?

    Did anyone who ordered from HTS get theirs shipped? I ordered right when it went online, paid for express shipping, was told it would ship today, and still nothing, and now it's listed as out of stock.

    If it said it was going to ship today, then it did. It's been my experience that HTS sends the item out, but their site and the tracking information doesn't update until the next day.

    I've ordered from them a total of four times so far, and each time that's how the process has worked out.

    Oddly enough, Animated Shockwave took four days to get to me in November (or was it October? I can't remember...) but Mudflap and Ravage were received in three, and according to my tracking info for Mixmaster, looks to be the same. I'd expect HA Bumblebee around Friday-Saturday.

    I always place an order on Sunday (Monday at the latest) so they'll be sure to go out Monday or Tuesday. So far, they've always gone out Monday, and the tracking info is sent to me Tuesday.

    Someone in the thread had asked which warehouse my stuff was shipping from, I think? To answer that, my tracking information always shows a start from Mechanicsburg PA (though sometimes it skips Mechanicsburg in the list, altogether.), then onto Martinsville, WV, and from there to Leetsdale, PA (Pittsburgh), and then onto my destination.
