Toys R Us On 54th in Tempe/Chandler
- Restocked 2nd wave RID
2X Wheeljack
2X Cliffjumper
6X Bumblebee
No Soundwaves (Go figure)
6X Prime Voyagers

No sign of Arcee or Ratchet in my neck of the woods but a buddy of mine who works at a TRU in Mesa just got them in and has 1 of each on hold for me today.

There's a TRU in Mesa? What are the cross streets?

Target at 44th St. & Thomas restocked on wave 2 PRID, including Bot Shots, but excluding Cyberverse. No Soundwave, either.

Target at 19th Ave. & Bethany Home is the same, but with a Cyberverse Cliffjumper and some Bumblebees.

No Ratchet or Arcee at either one. :\

Right off the 60 and Power Rd (next to the mall).

One of my best friends in High School works there and gives me the 411 on new shipments/restocks. He can hold stuff for me too but only for 24 hours.

Oh, that's pretty cool.

TRU on Indian Bend & 101 restocked with a ton of stuff, including some exclusive Cyberverse figure packs: G1 Bumblee, Concept Camaro Bumblebee, Movie Starscream, and Cybertron Starscream.

One of my best friends works at TRU in Superstition Springs so if he sees one, I'm the first to know.

Looks like my buddy got 4 in today at the TRU located at:
1516 South Power Road Mesa, AZ 85206

If you hurry, you can snag one up. Apparently there is a scalper that comes by every morning when the store opens to snag them.

News Credits: 1 · Thu Aug 30, 2012 1:05 pm

You weren't kidding when you suggested that I hurry!

Did you get yours?

I think you were right about that scalper, i think he got 3, and I believe you picked up the fourth one. At least I hope you did!

I was unable to get one from the mesa store and they are now out of stock.

I tried the chandler store too, but, the last one left was placed on hold by an employee there, possibly the assistant manager.

As of today, chandler and mesa are out of stock, and according to their machines, so are all the other stores in the valley. It seems the only stores with this item in stock are the Yuma store and the Tucson store as of the time of this posting.

Lame!

I hope there is another shipment coming sometime, but as things go with masterpiece items, I think this was the only shipment we were going to see.

They ordered 330, for just the Tucson/Yuma District, thats three times what Roddy Had.

I wouldn't fret, I think TC will be around for awhile.
It's Prime I'd be worried about.

Toys R Us Mesa is out of stock as of 2:20 pm 9/7/12. I was able to pick up one Masterpiece Thundercracker!

Someone bought 2 from the mesa store before I was able to get there. I'm not sure when they'll get more in. All I hear from the staff there is how popular this item is, and that they get lots of calls about it.

Good luck everyone!

Long time no news! I don't have any real sightings to post currently, but I am excited about the combiner wars combiners. It's such a pain to complete a combiner so I hope they are all packaged together later so we can get them in one purchase because I can't be bothered to go all over town trying to build one combiner.

My local walmart has been pretty dry the past few weeks as hasbro seems to have scaled down production significantly while we are inbetween films. I have to admit I like the platinum series currently and am looking online for Trypticon.

If I see anything decent over the coming months I'll stop by and update everyone for my area.

I hope everyone here is doing okay and hope to see you all posting again soon.

I am currently looking for Generations Deluxe Top Spin and Twin Twist. I am also waiting for Generations Trypticon too. I just bought the G1 reissue that recently came out but i actually like what hasbro did with Trypticon for once. I am saddened that they took out the motorized walking capability though but I won't miss it. It would never work right on my thick carpet anyway and always had to be on a flat surface.

Toys r Us in Goodyear... I mean, I guess you can either get them while they are here or maybe wait until it goes under and hope to get it for cheap... Haha... Ha... :-(

News Credits: 1 · Sat Sep 23, 2017 3:21 am

wow, i guess primus is called cybertron now? $149?! Primus was $50 when I got him. hm. I will need to look this one up I guess. Still, I'm going to hold out for Trypticon and the two deluxes I mentioned above. Goodyear is hella far from me too. :-/

Found this display this morning. Hopefully they will put out the rest of the stuff. No Swoop or Grimlock. But it looked like they were still setting up the displays and putting out new product.
