Spotted a Voyager Dreadwing at the TRU on 28th Street in Wyoming the other day. Only one, though, and I stuck him on layaway because I didn't have the fundage at the time. Picking him up wednesday, though, and I am STOKED.

Found a Dreadwing at Wixom Target today. Looks like he's slowly coming out. Still at Target's usual 19.99 price.

He's way better than I thought he'd be other than having too many rubbery parts (including the head and face). Definitely one of my favorites. Interesting to transform and show-accurate. I despise the light up weapons. Think of how much more awesome the toy could be if that money could have gone into the figure rather than that weird gimmick.

My wife found one at a Dearborn Target last week that I got for my birthday. The gun is useless, and whenever I hear that point brought up its always disassemble the gun and take out the spring. Then use a small rubber band to bind it in the open position.

What kid is going to want to do that? The weapons on the voyagers are useless.

At least DW comes with a sword.

Westland TRU had the GDO scouts up. I just grabbed a Brawl. Love that mold. I didn't see any of the deluxes but was told they had them. Also noticed the tag for MP Thundercracker is now $74.99.

Yeah I saw that $75 too the other day. Yikes.

I got the GDO scouts online at tru. Brawl is cool I want to head swap him and add on a cannon with a clip to his back to make a bit better Guzzle.

Sandstorm has awesome paint apps. It is so Sandstorm. If only it had a copter mode.

Also got laserbeak. Meh.

TRU and HTS both have the FoC Combaticons for $14.99 each, with free shipping at TRU if you spend over $49.

Hi stranger. I feel quite the opposite, being rather taken w/Lazerbeak. I only have him and Dead End so far, both are very nice.

Anyway, INCOMING!! Got MP Prime today at the DB TRU, there is one left as of 11:30am. Also picked up the only Dreadwing, and a set of GDO Legends. One full set remains, and one GDO Snadstorm. No Deluxes or Voyagers there yet, regrettably.

Topped it off w/ a 20% coupon.

last week they had the GDO scouts this week the roseville TRU got a case of the legends. does this mean next week they'll get the deluxes? i hope so. i want that cliffjumper seeings as i missed the chance to get the mold when it was a first edition prime toy.

Variety is the spice of life. I'm glad that you are enjoying him. I haven't found a reason to really like him yet.

Quite a haul there Andrew.

Hey guys, I know this is a longshot, but if there's anyone here that can help me out with an MP Optimus from TRU I have an extra TRU MP Thundercracker to trade. I'm aware it's not an even trade, so I can make it fair by adding either cash or other TFs.

Let me know if you think we can help each other out!

3 MP thundercrackers at the rosevile TRU tonight. nothing else new to report.

Man! i was there this morning. Must have gotten snatched up pretty quick. How much was he? $100?

Yeah, 100. Had a coupon from an email that gave me 20 bucks over 125. found the commissioner gordon and new batwing imaginext as well, so I was right on the button and paid about 84.60! woohoo!

Just got an email that tru is going to price match now....now that is good news.

sorry whitey...there were only 2...I mean what do they expect. any idiot should know that that figure is gonna sell quick up front and then taper off. they should have had at least 4 to begin with.

I think I was the one who must have snagged that 2nd one. I was there a bit before 11am yesterday and he was the only one I saw. There was 1 less case of MP Thundercrackers above the aisle. I wonder if someone would buy an entire case?

They also had several sets of GDO scouts there.

Missed out on Kup and Rumble at the Ann Arbor/Saline road Target. They did have 2 Vehicons as of 8:30 Sunday night. They might still be there.

i don't know why I still want the American MP 10 Prime, I already have the Japanese version. Maybe just an extra in case I wear out my Japanese one? lol

Also I found a legon Commander Skyquake at the Davison Meijer. Didn't have any more though. I've been getting really lucky at Meijer with the Prime Legon and Commanders.

One left on Sunday.

Just grabbed MP Prime and the FE 2-pack at Livonia TRU. One of each remain.

Update: Two MP Primes, two FE Enterainment 2-packs, and four MP Thundercrackers at Westland TRU.

2 entertainment packs and a restock of GDO scout class this morning at roseville TRU.

Just leaving TRU Flint (1pm). They have 1 MP Optimus Prime! They also have 1 Prime/Megatron pack with the kids, a first edition starscream and arcee, 5 MP Thundercrackers. They're all at the end cap of the isle, just around the corner from a bunch of bot shots. Call and they can hold anything til the end of the day.
