    As of this afternoon TRU in Moline had 7 Studio Series Thundercracker, I left 5 of them there. Most of them were still boxed up on the top shelf.

    On a side note, since TRU is in liquidation they have to put a mark on the barcodes on all items sold, in case anyone is picky about collecting the boxes.

    I saw one at Toys R Us back before the closing announcement and passed it up. Still not sure I'm entirely down for that $65 price tag but it I could get one for any kind of discount from Wal-Mart in 100% down.

    I found the Cyberverse Shockwave at the Walgreens on Grand and EP True. I picked up the only one but at least that means the figures are in the area.

    Found Alchemist Prime and Alpha Trion PMs at the Des Moines Walmart for $3 each. They only had one of each and I bought them.

    Found a lone TLK Deluxe Hot Rod at the Cedar Falls Ross today. Never did find this one at Wal-Mart. It was an exclusive there, right? Anyway, I only found the one, at $9.

    Also saw the Tailgate wave of POTP of whatever class these are at the CF Wal-Mart. TONS of 'em.

    Ames Walmart on Grand has the wave 2 Prime Masters. Unlike the Des Moines one they're full price, but they had multiples of both Alphy and Alchy.
