Yeah, US is already on Wave 4 and we haven't even got Wave 2 yet, lol. Well, Ratchet is something everyone needs to get but the rest I feel are mediocre. Anyways, TRU West Edmonton;

@Kirbenvost....the TRU on Broadway near Granville isn't any better. Bleak days indeed. With that much BB stock in this town and that being just at one store, I don't see us getting anything new anytime soon. Honestly, that metro town TRU has over 140 BB's sitting on the shelves and hanging on the pegs and with all the other stores basically looking the same way...........bleak days indeed. #-o



Yeah, Broadway (Bowmac) TRU is my usual store but I haven't been there in months because there's never anything new. I just happened to be at Metro so I decided to take some pics for the cause!

Yeah, I really don't think we're going to see PRID wave 2 very soon. Maybe once the holidays roll around, if we're lucky... :-(

At least there's a Knockout in there...

We need a new thread called "The Bot-Shot Plague". I know there are some here who like them, and that's cool, but where BB isn't oversaturating the pegs, these damn things are. As in this picture at a local Meijers where every bit of TF peg space is dominated by Bot-Shots. There aren't even any pegs assigned to Prime deluxe figures. It's all these darn things!

The difference is that Bot Shots actually sell, unlike Bumbleplague.

We all know that kids are the number 1
purchaser of Transformers and Bumblebee is what they
want. Well, why they Hell aren't they buying them?
Damn kids!



It's funny becuase it's what we are told it true. If you dare mention too many Bumblebees, white knights tell you allllllll about how much the kids love him, thus justifying what is obviously an oversaturation, and Hasbro cares nothing for us as fans, focusing all of their attention on children.

Quoting myself just to point out a little something.

For what I can count based on the photo and the info:

27 Prime RiD Bees
+
46 mother **** FE Bees
+
13 DotM Bees.

TOTAL: 86 Bees. A real swarm.

VS

3 Prime Rid Cliffy
+
3 FE Cliffy
+
3 FE Screamers
+
24 various DotM deluxes.

TOTAL: 30 Non Bee deluxe transformers, ALL of them (maybe minus the 3 RiD Cliffy) Are old stuff.

RATIO: Almost 3 Bees for one other TF.[/quote]


That is really amazing. If you could see a display like that and still somehow maintain the myths that BBs somehow fly off the shelves due to the adoration of children, you are very severely in denial.
