    Most likely no, which doesn't bother me at all I've been waiting for this toyline since we've been getting good picks of the toys, 7 to 8 more hours couldn't hurt

    I'm hoping. I signed up for a TRU Rewards Card, and it says there are special member only shopping events listed from time to time.

    I'm hoping the midnight release is one of them. Because with the amount of dough I'm throwin' down, I'll not only get the figures I want, but I'll actually rack up points/credits on the card since I'm spending more than $150.00 that night.

    I just hope it is the 30th, not the 29th or whatever because I won't have the dough until Friday.

    I'd dearly love to know what day is going to be the release day though, I really would.

    We have rumors of the 24th at Target.
    The 30th or the 31st at Wal-Mart. (Though this might be debunked.)
    TRU claims the the 30th, so they may stick to it.

    I would love one definitive answer. Yeesh.

    I believe it is the 30th - 31st, because of the whole Botcon "first release" thing. Wouldn't be much of a first release if you could go to Walmart on your way there and pick up a complete set.

    Ultimate Bumblebee!!! You don't belong in the promo pic with the good toys!!

    They even elevated and shrank the stock photo so it looks in scale to leader prime.

    I'm honestly not angry about it, I just think it is silly and could use pointing out.
