I need to seriously catch up on my sleep after last night, and before this weekend hits.

Stanley Cup championship and Botcon in 1 week.

Life is good.

Well that's a bummer ... if you get a chance, you should come out on Saturday at least and pay the regular day admission which doesn't cost that much money. If not, hopefully another time we can get u together with the rest of us!

I didn't think I'd find it, but the Schaumburg/Woodfield Toys R Us had Devastator this morning. I got the last one. I believe I was told that they only received one case (I'm not 100%) sure on this. So he's officially out in the wild in this area. Good luck!

Congrats, nice find. I'm definitely torn on Devastator still, I dunno if i really have the space for a titan class.

No devastator at Niles Tru but one left at riverside after I bought one!

I'm very curious to see a comparison shot of generations Scoop and the new Scrapper in alt mode.

TRU in Melrose Park last night: 2 CW Cyclonus, and 1 or 2 CW Legends Rodimus and Skywarp. No Hotspot to be seen.

Yorktown target has several Silverbolts, an Armada Megatron, and several of windcharger and Groove.

I saw the new RiD15 minicons at the Addison Walmart last night. Curiously, they were on a clearance peg for $5; I scanned them and they rang up at $4.93, so I bought one of each. Aren't these supposed to be $10 or so? They pretty neat, glad they aren't spring-loaded.

They're the $5 price point, which isn't bad for these little sets.

One lone Devastator at Golf Mill TRU as of 11:45am.

by **Umbra** » Tue Aug 11, 2015 7:33 pm

As of last night, Highland Park TRU had Masterpiece Bluestreak

1 set of the autobots combines for optimus maximus (ironhide, sunstreaker, prowl, and mirage) left at Addison st target in chicago. Also have 3 step sideswipe, giant ass bumblebee, wave 1 minicons and 1 pair of deployers (fracture and drift). Skyward and rodimus, groove legends also here. Happy hunting!

Golf Mill Toys r us on niles had the Tru exclusive "Clash of the Transformers" line. There was at least one full set remaining minus the hyperchange bumblebee (I bought the only one last night that was there).

If any of your kids are into shopkins they had an absolute ton of the new ones there. Had so many they had just a bin in the aisle full of one's they just dumped in.

The Toys R Us on 75th st in Downers Grove had a slew of new figures this afternoon. They had 3-4 MP Bluestreaks. Several Megatronus and the minicon launcher Drift figure.

Villa Park Target had one set of CW Ironhide and friends tonight around 6:00, $15.29. I grabbed the second set.

News Credits: 9 · by **Hip-Hoptimus Rime** » Fri Sep 04, 2015 6:56 pm

TRU Golf Mill has a bunch of the new RiD15 figs, like the Deluxe Optimus, Sideswipe, and Bee repaints, as well as that big Megatronus.

Also, they had one CW Hotspot and Rook, which I bought. Price-matching with Target made Rook 15.49 instead of a crazy 19.99. Hotspot was 26.99, ouch.

Lots of new Star Wars stuff, those small Micro Machines and Titanium vehicles are aweome.

by **Umbra** » Tue Sep 15, 2015 7:47 pm

Here is one you never expected to hear:

Target In Niles on Touhy has a Titanium Series War Within Grimlock in stock. Yes the toys r us exclusive one from like 2008/2009. Looks like someone pealed the exclusive sticker off and returned it. Rings up as a generations leader class figure at $44.99
