    Someone suggested that we needed an official thread for items that we find at Ross/TJ Maxx/Marshalls/5 Below Stores just like the ones for BBTS and HTS so here it is.

    Post your sightings and restocks of new and hard to find items at these three stores here.

    MP Grimlock was apparently found at Ross. Albeit incomplete.

    I went to TJMaxx hoping to find a Windcharger or a Lugnut, but instead I found the PCC Dinobot Combiner. Grimstone, I think? Wasn't really looking for one, but I figured I'd better get it just in case, since I'll probably never see it again.

    I got the Dinobot set but I'd love to find the Stunticon & Constructicon sets, I'm gonna have to keep an eye out for em. Hopefully I have better luck with them than I did with Grapple, Wreck Gar, & Perceptor... never did luck into them.

    I noticed you are in northwest Ohio, if you are ever in central Ohio sometime the TJ Maxx in Lancaster has Steamhammer and so does the Marshall's in Reynoldsburg.

    I checked the price sticker and it's the same as the HFTD leaders so I still do not know if it's a fluke or not. And as I feared, the head is also missing. Which is weird since the figure seem to still be in its original bindings. Now I have to decide if I should keep it, return it, or sell it for scrap. Anybody know of any heads that would work?

    I can actually see the new Butcher mold not looking too bad. Do it!

    Anyway, my TJ Maxx seems to just have HFTD leaders and some ROTF deluxe as of now. Found a RTS Grappel a few weeks ago, some HA Jazz's and some Animated Voyagers a few months ago. I'll probably check back this weekend.

    My local TJMaxx is moving location soon, so they haven't put out anything new in weeks it seem. I wanna try to check it out in the next for days, but I don't have hopes. Hopefully after they move, I'll hit a gold mine lol

    I picked up a beat up boxed Uni Hardhead on clearance for $12. It was the only one in the store. And this was on Monday.

    That Grimlock has to be a return, especially if its the same SKU # as the HftD leaders. They're not the same pricepoint, so its hard to imagine they'd show up in the same assortment.

    On topic: I'll be posting my findings in here too (and subscribing) as I hit these stores in my area once a week, on average.

    Grimlock's a mystery. The robot itself looked was factory sealed but it was missing the head. But then again, you didn't need to remove any of the ties or bands to remove the head. But I'd take a headless, weaponless, grimlock over a Starscream anyday so it's a win-win.

    As far as other sightings, as of last friday my local TJMaxx had a bunch of HA's. Bumblebee, Jazz, Barricade, Silver Sideswipe for $17.
