Quick stop at TRU on Butterfield just now. Signs say "up to 30% off", but TFs seem to be 10%- I checked the one Primus and TR Rodimus Unicronus (I keep wanting to call him Unichronicus, what's up with that?), both were 10% off.

Nothing else noteworthy as far as stock. I wonder if they'll up the discounts daily or perhaps during the day?

Studio series Deluxes, Voyagers, and Leaders Friday evening at the Target on Army Trail Rd., Bloomingdale I think.

One of each Leader; I took the only Voy Starscream; 2 each of Ratchet and Bumblebee, one Stinger. $50, 30, and 20, respectively. But Target's RedCard means 5% off, that's $2.50 off Leaders.

Yorktown Target has some of the Bumblebee movie figs- the small Legends-types and the next size up, I think. I haven't learned the new sizes classes yet, they seem confusing this time around.

EDIT- I forgot that they had 2 of those POTP Soundwave exclusive re-molds too.

Also had a couple POTP Infernos.

The Wal-Mart on Lake Street in Addison has all of it's price tags up for the G1 reissues, but they are not out yet. I could not talk one of the employees to check the back and see if Devastator was in yet. I'm guessing they will be put out this week.
