So they'd have a full selection at 1pm and by the time you'd get there at 5:30 there'd be nothing left but Bumblebees and maybe an Arcee if you're lucky. :roll:

I think Arcee was shortpacked. If not, damn, was she popular and moved fast in my area.

Yeah, they had 4 freakin' Bumblebees to a case and I think 1 or 2 of the other ones... Or maybe it was 4 Bee, 3 Starscream and 1 Arcee, I can't remember. :BANG_HEAD:

I managed to get 2 each of Bumblebee & Arcee and 1 Starscream because I was giving them to a friend for Christmas. I'm personally skipping out on Starscream intentionally to wait for the Voyager. I also picked up an extra Bee to exchange for a CJ, if I ever get the chance again...

Awesome line though. Bulkhead is exceptionally cool and even Voyager Prime is impressive. Haven't opened Bee or Arcee but I already have NYCC Arcee as well.

Prime deluxes are @ Ages Three and Up...if you feel like spending $45 for them.

Also, went to TRU Metrotown for the first time in a while to see their TF section utterly decimated. Between this and TRU Express Lougheed closing, I'm having very serious doubts as to whether or not I'll be able to complete my Movie figure collection by getting Wheeljack.

I'm sure they'll get it in eventually. It is DOTM after all.

Well, we never got that moviefied Lockdown wave here. Or the Scout Powerglide. (Go figure, eh? The only moviecrap I wanted... :roll: )

It was Cyberverse Powerglide and it did show up briefly at Walmarts. You might still be able to find it if you're lucky, but I'm not sure. Lockdown was pretty hard to find, I only ever saw him once as well, I can't even remember where, but it definitely wasn't TRU. Walmart seems to be a lot more reliable with the movie stuff it seems.

Not really. Everytime I walk in there, it seems like they have the same crap that was there the last time I was there. And the time before that. And the time before that. And so on.

Hmm, must be all getting snatched up right away as soon as it's sighted then. :( Well, I don't think that Wheeljack wave has even hit the states yet, so there's still hope.

Well that's just prime.

Also, colour me surprised. My TRU in Brossard, South Shore of Montreal, restocked on the Prime cartoon Voyagers. And they've redesigned the layout of the Transformers section, leaving only a peg or two for Deluxes. Most of the space is now shelving for those knockoff Lego sets.

Slap me for double-posting, but Blurrman, you ain't screwed yet. The Brossard TRU (South Shore of Montreal) restocked on Deluxe Class figures from the Prime cartoon, so maybe you'll see them in your area soon.
