    Good point. I never saw any MP Primes there. Makes TRU look even more pathetic considering its their flagship store. But they sure loved all of those Thundercrackers they had shelf warming for months. :rolleyes2

    yeah, unfortunately that is the closest TRU to me, an express store which is always ~20% higher prices on new and current items.

    they sell deluxes there for $20, not cool.

    Right, they really want bunch of fanboys bitching about how they're not catering to each of their own individual wants.

    But you see that's the mentality of the suits looking at numbers. "They loved the blue one, make one in Green!!!!"

    I called both of the closest TRUs (both are about a hours drive) and nothing. I'm not surprised since neither one ever got TC in.

    How is it "individual wants" when an entire fandom is clamoring for something? If they had consulted with us, via a poll or some other method, they could have anticipated the rabid reaction for Soundwave and the tepid response to Acid Storm. Instead, we get the situation we have this morning.

    Imagine how bad it'll be if Hasbro does a Masterpiece 3-pack with Prowl, Wheeljack, and Sideswipe. All for $100

    I love sellers that use the Best Offer feature and then won't budge by more than a dollar. Though in this case it was pretty obvious he was being trolled from the get-go. :lol 

    My Acid Storm notification email was actually timely. I was shocked. Though it didn't beat out my buddy Dave.

    Sounds like the Deptford NJ TRU. Man I am SO glad I don't even have to consider stepping foot in that place for this.
