ARGH! TRU Schaumburg has/had the Grimlock wave??? Curse my foul luck!! Grimlock, Blaster and the Autobot disks are the last toys I need in the wild for a good chunk of time. Would be nice to be able to head straight home from work without wondering which store I skipped has the most stuff I need!

The crazy thing about me finding them was that they weren't even in the Transformers aisle. I was on my way to the checkout when I passed a couple of shopping carts near the customer service area that were overflowing with various random toys ... it looked like carts full of returned items. I noticed a red Generations box and thought "could it be?" Lo and behold it was FOC Grimlock. Then I thought, "man now I've got to find Blaster." I dug through to the bottom of the cart and found Blaster. Very happy.

There was still a full set remaining of all of the Bot Shots, the Bot Shots 3 packs, and the Legion Class. No other new Voyager Class (BH or FOC) remained. I grabbed the last remaining full set of the Rescue Bots bagged figures, but Optimus and Bumblebee remained. Some of the newer FOC deluxes were here as well but I didn't really pay much attention to which ones, especially since the TRU on Butterfield in Downer's Grove/Lombard area had tons last week.

Other sightings news at Schaumburg TRU ... there were 5 or 6 different Beast Hunters Kre-O sets in stock. The G.I. Joe Kre-O blind bagged figures were here as well as the Firefly vs Law and Order set. Didn't see any other sets for GI Joe. The new G.I. Joe Micro Force sets and blind packs were at this TRU as well.

Ya, those carts are for stuff that people leave at the register. Good for the odd piece that hasnt been put back in its place. Nice find sir!

I know Lake Geneva isn't that far for some Illinois transfans so FYI, there are two more Voyager Optimus and Predakings at the Lake Geneva WalMart as well as a full assortment of deluxes...

<snip big list>

This is precisely why I skipped that TRU. I was right there at the Target around the corner, but I knew TRU would be far too tempting. Will you be whipping up some galleries for that haul soon?

Greetings.

There was 1x FOC Grimlock at the Golf Road Meijer in Schaumburg as of last night.

I hid him behind some FOC Jazz figures.

Stopping by on thurs night then, hoping he's still there!

There were two Grimlocks and two Blasters at the TRU on State in Rockford. Took one of each for myself.

I stopped by the Meijer on Golf road for that Grimmy..he had been joined by 5 clones of himself and a pair of bots named Blaster. Picked up my 1 of each...and IM DONE with domestic hunting!

Bring on the next wave!
