Re: Florida collectors unite!
The Toys R Us display in Gainesville is out of control. I bet they're all pretty impressive around the country. K-mart, on the other hand, had nothing good - no leaders, voyagers, deluxes, scouts - nothing.

I was able to get ROTF Superion today. took a little work. went to target and saw they had a spot for Superion on an end cap. So i asked a target toy dept employee. he looked at the end cap then looked in the isle and said they were out. I checked the dcpi# and it showed in the backroom. so i called the store and gave them the dcpi#. Then i got a reply of it shows 12 in back want me to pull one for you and leave it at the service desk? I now have a ROTF Superion.

Re: Florida collectors unite!
Found one Stratosphere at TRU in Tyrone.
K-Mart, Target, Wal-Mart all had the same stuff picked over.
Still on the hunt for Mixmaster, Ravage, Long Haul, and especially Leader Jetfire.

Wal-Mart on NE Coachman had a full display of Voyager Megatron, Mixmaster, The Fallen, and the other guy from that wave whom I didn't even think to look for.

Re: Florida collectors unite!
Just got back from the Gainesville Toys R Us on the last day of that buy 1 get one half off sale (think it's the last day at least) for Deluxes and FABs. Found Wave 3 Deluxes including Ravage, Interrogator Barricade, Mudflap, and Cannon Bumblebee, and I also found a few Voyager class Mixmaster as well, along with a couple Stratosphere. Had several (like 20+) of the Deluxe/Voyager bundle with the repainted Wreckage figure as Bludgeon for $34.99.No sign of any other new voyagers or new Leader class figures (wish they'd drop the new leader Prime to like $30). Walmart had the same stuff since they released the toys at the end of May. I'll be checking out the Target later this weekend.

Re: Florida collectors unite!
Found Superion at the Super Target on Hillsborough. No sign of him at Gulf to Bay.
You'll probably have to wait for Holiday or clearance sales for that to happen. I'll be doing the same thing

Has anyone seen leader class jetfire in central Florida area?
I've been watching all the finds and the closest to the south was TN. Been on the hunt for a couple weeks with no luck...

I saw a leader class mv2 wave2 case the Walmart on Hillsborough ave the other night, but it was at the bottom of the pallet. And the guy that works toys at night is a pain in the a**. so Jetfires are in the area. just a matter of stores selling down the numbers of leader Primes and Megs on the shelves first.

Re: Florida collectors unite!
Hey Guys!
This is my first post here on Sibertron. I live in Sarasota and I've been on the Hisstank toy boards for about a year now and I occasionally visit a few others.
I've always been a TF fan but recently really getting back into it. I love making custom toys and I'm starting to make custom TF's too. I'd like to turn my passion into a profession.
Question. Has anyone seen a ROTF Jetfire Anywhere in Florida? I've been all up and down the west coast/Tampa Area and Haven't seen one.
I really want to get my hands on one without paying $75 for it.
