Picked up RTS Perceptor, Wreck-Gar, and Laser Prime from Kmart the other day. I am somewhat disappointed in the engineering on a couple of them. Prime has a red translucent peg protruding right into the path of the right shoulder joint, hampering the movement somewhat. Perceptor, who I had looked forward to most, has issues where the backpack, which contains the shoulders and arms, doesn't peg in securely and keeps popping loose every time I move the arms. Add to that the fact that tiny black plastic projections are in just the right place to push up on the back of his shoulder gun so it points at a down angle. :BANG_HEAD:

Don't they at least check the prototypes out for functionality before these reach the MFG process, or is it like an Ed Wood movie where they just say "Send it. It's good enough!"?

It's been a good week and a half for me. Just shipped my POL from BBTS with Gen Scourge, got United Wreck-Gar from Robotkingdom on Monday, and my card was just charged for Gen Wheeljack today, so he should be shipping out soon. All I'm waiting for next would be Gen Warpath from BBTS and I'm good. Still looking for Windcharger however.

Found Kup today at Harrisburg,PA TRU! Ordered Airazor and Astrotrain from TFCC! Ordered RTS BB,Prime and a Scourge from HTS! Got Perceptor a few weeks ago. Also day before yesterday I picked up 2 Movie Preview Primes from York, PA TRU, one for me and one for a friend.

Check your local Kohls, better yet check them and then have them check other stores for you.
The Kohls that I work at has a ton of Wave 1 RTS sitting in the stock room and not on the sales floor. another Kohls I was at had 2 whole racks of TFs mostly Generations WFC figs and Wave 1 RTS!

Snagged a Scourge and Kup at TRU in New Port Richey, FL a couple days ago!

They had 1 of each. They also had Cliffjumper, 1 Blurr, and Cybertronian SW, Megs, BB.

I'm still searching for my ever-elusive Jazz, Percy, and Wreck-Gar......

Pretty good week: Found another G2 Optimus at TRU (let the Scourgening begin!), Lugnut, Device Label Blaster and United Wreck-Gar came Tuesday from BBTS, Wednesday I found all 6 RtS Legends at the comic book store, and my 3 Scourges from HTS will be here Monday.

BTW: the Legends Optimus hands are PERFECT for holding the Battle in Space's Matrix over his head.

Now that I completed my Reveal The Shield and Generations deluxe collection.

I am hoping to find the RTS Voyager figures soon. Grappel looks like the one I want the most.
