    Not sure why you would need to "live by a computer" to have had a chance to get him. Anyway, he was available for just under 36 hours in total.

    Well, if it's available online, then you have to be on a computer to order. Since I haven't been able to be by a computer often this week to check for availability, I could not order. It's no big deal, really not meant to be taken so literally.

    Deptford had 3 MP's for their 139 price at around 11.. I just couldn't buy one. holding out hope it will go back to 119 (or 99!!!) ugh TRU is insanity. If I didn't have children I would have broke down and grabbed him.
    Anyway, they also had all the gdo legends figs and deluxes, although I didn't see a wheelie. no new prime stuff as usual (I think I've given up on prime, although I may pick up a thundertron if I ever see him)

    Turnersville and Deptford Wal-Marts both had Dreadwing (2 at T-ville, 1 in Deptford). Turnersville also had the Kup/Rumble/Vehicons wave of Deluxes.

    Really? It has been a while since I went down there because of the blackouts and storms and whatnot. Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully Magnus is still down there when I get a chance to go!

    Damn, I already own a Dreadwing, but one of his wing flaps are kindd of floppy. Anyone else have this problem? If so, I might find myself buying another one

    Five Below Wayne had a few DOTM HA Basics if anyone's interested... personally I think they're kinda neat, have all but Reverb who sadly wasn't in this store. (Though I hear he is being found in Five Below stores with the other HA Basics.)

    They also had a lone Air Raid and a few DOTM Starscreams. Both Deluxes and HA Basics were $5 each.

    TRU Wayne had MP Thunder Crackers, FE Entertainment Packs, a lone FE Arcee, and the GDO Legends. There's also two Marvel Avengers TFs, but they're grossly overpriced at 23$ each.

    The K-Mart besides TRU had little of interest... PRID Prime/Megatron, and the Weaponizers.

    Deptford TRU had a few more MP primes as of 5:45. Ran into Crossbones there and he was able to pick up a MP prime as well.


    None of the voyager GDOs were there. Only cliff and swerve GDO deluxes were left. A bunch of the smaller ones were still there.

    Haven't seen a single MP Prime in Paramus.

    TRU rt 4 has lots of GDO legends, although I think everyone here has already gotten what they need.

    Thanks again to Hotrod who I stumbled into at the Deptford TRU. While I was debating the Optimus purchase he showed up and offered up the means to help me battle for online price match, which I scored. Hotrod is the best - a knowledgeable collector who doesn't hesitate to help a brother out!

    Meanwhile, I had to open the MP last night and it l literally didn't leave my hands all night. It is a well designed work of art. I have an appointment to have Prime visit my son's base after dinner tonight where he will mingle with all his bots.

    Glad I could help. I think I am going to crack open my MP prime this weekend and put him into my case with the other ten versions of prime I have.


    ALSO I have an extra MP prime I am selling for 119.99 plus tax if anyone is still trying to hunt for him and does not want to pay 138.99.

    Stopped at TRU Eatentown tonight- no Primes (found some last weekend, but couldn't post due to no power), but they did have a single GDO Megatron and some FE Deluxes, no vehicons.

    Went out to TRU Secaucus and Totowa and didn't find squat. Both had a fair share of GDO Scouts and Legions, but no GDO Voyagers like I was hoping. No Prime Thundertron or Magnus either, but Secaucus had Arcee and Starscream. Both locations has several deluxe Prime/Megs combo pack. Prime and Bee Weaponizers on sale for $24 and RiD for $20. All deluxe figures is BOG50$ off.
