I got the Target transforming case + comic exclusive this morning then went over to Best Buy to try and get the "metallic" Megatron. There was a short line and as soon as they opened I went looking for the figures. I saw a guy holding the Ratchet in his hand and when I asked him where he got it he said they gave the first three people in the door a ticket to get the figures and that there were only 3 in stock!!?
I called 2 other locations and they had only received 2 of each figure and had already sold out and were not expecting more!
Pretty sad promotion in my opinion.
If anyone has any info about additional inventory on these, let us know!
If anyone has or can get an extra Mettalic Megs that they wouldn't mind selling at cost plus $5 for gas via PayPal, let me know! I just don't feel like doing the whole hunt thing again
Thanks for providing such a cool and informative site. You guys really got this 36 year-old man unexpectedly back into transformer collecting After discovering this site, I now own a Bumble Bee 08, Blackout, Scorponok, Barricade with working lights, Voyager Prime, Alternators Battle Ravage, Arcee, Iron Hide, Protoform Prime, and 4 of the Transformers/Star Wars figures.
Do you guys have a "Counseling for Addicts" section?!
Best Regards,

There's a barricade with working lights?

Referring to Jinn's mod most likely. It's where you get a 99 cent whistle with red and blue lights from the dollar store and butcher it. The light array inside fits perfectly in the roof of deluxe Barricade...just gotta dremmel a little plastic out of the way to make it snug and Voila!

It's sweeeeet...did one for my son and he loves it :grin:

That's exactly what I meant brothers! i don't own a dremmel so I just used an exacto knife to do mine. it's an easy mod that looks great when done. I can't imagine barricade without it now and plan to mod my daughter's as well.
