Went to Duluth TRU out by Gwinnett Place and they didn't have a single TF on their shelves more recent than August. No MPs, no FE, no Asian Generations. Don't waste your gas going out here.

Went to Duluth Aldi, following up on the news report of finding Vehicons there, just a few Dead Ends and Knock Out.

Went to Lawrenceville Aldi. JACKPOT.

4 boxes of Prime figures, most of them Vehicons. I think I snagged the only Airachnid though. So if you're Vehicon hunting, come to Aldi on Duluth Highway. It's beside the Mr. Clean Carwash and it's on the stretch between Riverside Parkway and Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road.

Just recieved a text from my brother with a pic of 5 boxes (2 per box so 10 in stock) of MP Primes from the Tucker TRU. He said that each box even had a TRU made label with the 119.99 price on them. He said that they had none on the shelf so when you get there, ask them to pull them down.

I went to the Fayetteville TRU and found that they had 6 MP primes out on the shelf. They also had FE Starscream, Asian Generation Cliffjumper, and some asian scouts.

I also went to Aldi (in case you didnt know, they have all Deluxe Transformers for 9.99) and they had Ratchet, Vehicon, WheelJack, Fruity WheelJack (Deadend),and Knockout.

All transformers mentioned in this post were there tonight and left. The only one I took home was FE Arcee .

Thank you so much for the information! I've been having lots of frustration and trouble with my TRU preorder, so I decided to give the Tucker store a shot. Just like you reported, there were 5 unopened boxes of MP Optimus but none on the shelf.

The sales rep got a fresh box down and I took my MP OP to customer service to see if they would match the online preorder price. The CS rep said that she could as long as I had a physical printout for her to verify the price. I have been carrying around a printout of my preorder email for the last week or so and thus she matched the price!

So, I was actually able to get him for cheaper because tax is a little less than online for a final price of $106.99! I only bought one so there should be one somewhere on the shelves and 4 cases directly above the TF section at the Tucker TRU.
