    It's missing one of the sliding hood pieces on his chest. Took me a minute to notice it too.

    Kinda makes him look more show accurate, albeit unintentional. Kinda, cause when they put him back together, he still looked somewhat damaged, iIrc.

    that bottom picture was at a wal-mart and there were absolutely no spots on any of the shelves for ANY transformers period... that one just happened to be on the shelf.. I was surprised.. had to check some of the stickers around it just to make sure I wasn't seeing things.. if you noticed, it's in the Star wars section..

    It's the same way at my walmart. There's some Rescue Heroes stuff where the deluxes should be and maybe like four legion class dudes and thats it. I think the toy departments are all getting rready for their reset where they recover from the Christmas distaster because Walmart only cares about sales and not about organization or order.

    I actually work in the back at a Walmart, and their strategy was literally "Take all the stuff out of the back a few days before christmas and shove it out on the shelves IGDGAF where." There was zero toy overstock in the back until a couple days ago.

    pretty much the mentality at my store is if its empty pull the tag and fill something else in.

    I just got some Igear coneheads in and found out a dirty dirty secret. Apparently Thrust really likes talking to himself!

    I'm not going to lie; I'm not too impressed with the Crazy Devvy set. Kinda wish I didn't get it.

    My guess is it's a vanity mirror, lol. My not-Thrust has the same thing (it's right side up, at least). He is the prettiest-/coolest-looking of the iGear not-Coneheads, I think.

    re: wal-mart. that's the only place i ever go for tf's... and they don't stock SHIT. mine got rid of prime deluxes and voyagers altogether, i've seen no FOC voyagers or wave 3 of the deluxes... they never stocked commanders till a month or two ago and even then just the skyquake wave and one each of optimus and megatron. and that's the only place i go to more than once a month so i probably won't be able to get half the tf's i want this year :I
