    Thumbs up indeed. I appreciate the effort you put forth to summarize. I confuse this forum with another sometimes. Friend picked him up for me. Thank you

    OK I went on a Unicronus hunt today and you can benefit:

    South Jordan walmart: 1 each RU and OP
    Sandy Target on State: plenty of swoop's & snarl's, star scream and Elita-1, no leaders or deluxes (w2)
    Downtown walmart: 2 OP's
    Downtown target: plenty of swoops and snarls, one grimlock
    5400 walmart: 2 OP's one RU
    Target right next to 5400 walmart: grimlock, swoop and snarl, if you're working towards volcanis
    3800W Walmart - 2 OP's, one RU, was the only flawless RU i found because I'm super anal. Both were flawless, I bought one of them.

    Still no wave 2 deluxes anywhere. Elita 1 out at Sandy Target makes me think we'll see Hun Grr there real soon. Looks like the targets are getting the new voyagers, WM's getting the new leaders, and ain't nobody getting the new Wave 2 deluxes

    Walmart Employee told me today that they are holding off restocking toys because of some big movies that are coming out soon.
    I guess Avengers and Solo?
    Peter Rabbit? what else is coming out soon?

    Avengers and Solo are the two biggest. There's Ant Man and the Wasp, but that's not until July.

    Picked up roadtrap and battleslash at the Orem target this morning, leaving one of each. Also picked up the last Elita-1 there, but there was also one of her at American Fork target.

    Hey folks. I used to visit this site often, but lost interest after movie #3. Movie 4 and 5 have left me indifferent to the franchise, but I still liked the figures. To be honest, I don't follow Transformers outside of the movies, so I forgot about this place.
    I read the news about TRU possibly closing and had a bit of nostalgia, so I decided to pay a visit.
    With that being said, what is the status with movie figures? I have check some stores, but rarely see anything on shelves.
    Were they put on clearance or is volume low?
    Also, if anyone wants to tell what the status with the brand is, I'd appreciate it.:) :) :)

    Ebay:
    The movie series is still around, figures from The Last Knight are plentiful, but apart from the Voyager Megatron, none of them have been widely praised. (People seem to like Nitro at least). There’s a new line debuting next month called Studio Series which is new mold renditions of characters from all the different movies, all in a new scale that’s as close as we’re going to get to internally consistent. There’s also a new line of Movie Masterpieces, Optimus, Bumblebee and Barricade out now, Ironhide coming this year.
