    Nothing. I highly doubt that the toys will even be in the stores here (based on the fact that it took almost 2 weeks for them to show up here for the first movie).

    I'm going to TRU early Saturday morning with my friend and hopefully we'll find all the ones we want.

    I plan on picking up Starscream, Rampage, Soundwave, Demolishor, Sideways, Sideswipe, Bumblebee, and possibly leader Megs.

    Ask your Toys R Us about Soundwave. Mine showed a box of preview figures to me, that were marked a being released on the 30th.

    I've got more than enough money. I'm calling the local Walmart and heading over there as soon as they've got the stuff out. Then I'm heading down to the Springs and checking all 14 or so of the TRU/WM/Targets in case if some stores got Wave 2 or Wave 1.

    I've got a few hundred saved up.

    I'll be getting out of work at 5 pm, gonna pick up my buddy, and then we're going to go to Toys R Us. I'm just hoping they have them, I mean I can't imagine them NOT having enough of the figures, but I'm not gonna get my hopes up too high.

    I'll buy whatever I can, definitely Leaders and Voyagers, but I might on some of the deluxes, because when the first movie came out, we got the deluxes at the store I work at, and they were discounted too (and I really can't imagine them NOT getting RotF toys, we got toys for other big releases).

    And quick question, do we know if all the toys being released on the 30th are gonna be of characters in the movie? I have a strict policy of buying only-toys-of-characters-who-are-in-the-movie/show-no-matter-how-cool-other-figures-may-be. :lol

    It's based on how much money I get from ebay this week.. as it's all ending on Wednesday... But as of now, I'm between $100 - $120.

    If it stays like that, then I'll most likely pickup Leader Prime, Demolishor, and Starscream as a start.

    I bought the forklift dude the other day at TRU. Gonna go back for Prime in a few weeks.

    That's pretty much it.

    Leader Prime, and Deluxe Ravage...if his wave is available.

    Eventually, I will snag a Leader Jetfire, Leader Megatron, and eventually, a Leader Starscream.

    But for now, Leader Prime and lil' Ravage.

    Actually I would do nothing and sleep in if HTS would just put up frakin' pre-orders for more than Prime, Megs, Soundwave, and BB. Simply pre-order everything I want and wait for them all to arive. The way I look at it I waited this long, what is a few more days. Alas that isn't the case so I will most likely head up to tax free New Hampshire in the morning when TRU opens and pick what I want up. Then check the Target and Wal-Marts near by for anything else. Then I'll spend Saturday opening them and putting them in my Movie Universe display.

    Well just after I posted that I noticed that a TRU near me will be one having a Preview Night shin dig, so I most likely will go to that. Depending on what I get I should be all set to sleep in Saturday now!!! And then hopefully like the SW Clone Wars release last summer HTS will have everything up shortly after midnight.

    I'll make the rounds at my local stores that weekend, they won't have anything, and then I'll probably pick some up a week or two later when they finally make it here.:lol
