Stopped by Toys R Us in Allen, TX when I got off work. The manager stated they've got in two a week but never hit the shelves, people checking every morning when store opens. I was headed to Oklahoma couple weeks ago and the store manager was able to bring up stores within 100 miles, called Norman, OK store and they had one. So ask the manager if they can look up to check stock in other stores. If they say they cant they're lying, so press them on it. Good luck and happy hunting.

Lucked out and finally found one today. there were 5. i grabbed one and a guy picked up another right after me.

Glad this hunt is over for me. love the mp-10 though.

I got mine here in Austin Texas a few weeks ago. Calling the stores in the morning did me no good, and my job prevents me from being able to get there when they open. So I recruited my sister. She was temporarily out of work due to an injury, but she could drive, so I let her take my truck in the morning, she found one on the first try. So happy to have it! Thought I'd never get my hands on one. Also it was $100 not $120.

There is a small gap on the chest of mine. I was watching some reviews, some had the gap some did not. Is this a mold issue? Will the majority of them have this issue? Is anyone else seeing this issue?

I got mine in Norman as well, about three weeks ago right after the initial sighting. It was the only one they had and they had to get it from the back. I've seen him there a couple of times since then, but he never stays in stock long. Paid the original $99.99.

Mine does a few QC issues. The worst being a chest misalignment that causes his passenger side windshield area/chest to not close all the way. Probably need to take it apart to see what the problem is, or return him for a different one once they hit in mass and start shelf warming.

Sounds like yours is doing the same as mine. I bet this is a pretty common issue. I was thinking about exchanging too. My guess is the next one I got would have the same issue. Hmm, I will have to wait and see.

Mine seems to be fine. I've been hearing a lot of people saying some of the figures have defects. Guess I got lucky. $89.99 after coupon not too shabby for a masterpiece figure. Now I just need to find Wheelie, been hunting him for weeks.

I wish someone would hook a brotha up.

No kidding. I just checked about 10 stores in my area --some near, some really far, no one has it or stocked today.
