    I think Texas, or at least the Houston area, might be out of luck. I called on TRU and they don't have SS Thundercracker and neither do the other stores. They also don't know if they will be getting a shipment. Looks like we are f'cked

    I know, I was there over the weekend. They have like twelve Hounds and they are all sitting at $13.

    I had meant to go around checking other stores, glad I saved myself from dissapointment. Seriously wondering where Wave 2 is.

    If you are looking for POTP wave 2 Prime Masters, check your Kroger stores. I got Alpha Trion/Landmine and Alchemist Prime/Submarauder at the Kroger off 2920/249 in Tomball this morning for $6.99 each. They are in the toy/Easter aisle. I left the following there:

    Titan Masters: Repugnus, Shuffler (X 2), Nightbeat, and Skytread
    Prime Masters: Vector Prime/Metalhawk (X 2), Liege Maximo/Skullgrin (X 2), Alpha Trion/Landmine (X 2), and a single Alchemist Prime/Submarauder

    Now all I need is the POTP wave 2 Legends figures to be caught up.

    Last year I wouldn't have expected Kroger of all chains to be at the forefront of TF stuff. Wow.

    Hope you guys in Houston are having a good toy show.

    Quick question. Which waves of TF's are showing up at Ross? It took me several stores in Vietnam but I finally managed to snag TR Windblade, Twin Twist and Misfire. Half off (so $16). Regular price for Hasbro TF's in Asia is twice retail in the US.

    Yep, TITAN RETURNS deluxes are being seen in Ross stores. Hell, I got a Hot-Rod from an area Ross that RARELY has anything and I spotted an actual T.R. Blitzwing at a Marshalls, so keep watch.

    Considering that Meijr (sp) is part of Krogers, do you think we'll see some Studio Series stuff in the Kroger stores?

    That's certainly a development. Do you have any pics to prove? this could be front page news.

    You fellow San Antonio folks stay safe out there, that fifth explosion was a little too close for comfort for my tastes. I only live a few minutes from that Fedex facility.

    Unfortunately one of the Kroger supermarkets didn't have any early labels put up.
