Lol--I appreciate the offer, Bill, but I'm in Lima, and I don't have the time during the week to get to Dayton. I recommend contacting Stockade--he posts here often, and is searching for Thrust and Drift too, and lives in the Dayton area. Lima has a TRU, but they haven't received those two figures yet.

Appreciate the thought, Bill. I have to admit that I'm kind of jealous you found them.

I found these 2 at Kohls in beavercreek yesterday evening:

Thrust and Drift. was the last 2 there...

Time for me to check the Kohl's stores in Findlay and Lima again. I'm not too enthusiastic, though--they still have stuff from the first movie on their pegs.

Stopped by Kohl's in Sugarcreek and they had the HFTD scout class figures. I picked up the only Hubcap. They also had the HFTD Deluxe class figures but no Generations.

Thanks for the tip Bill! greatly appriciated on your part. Drift is a badass and just ended up perfect in everyway possible, but Thrust was missassemble from the factory and i have to return him sometime this week.

As for Sea Spray his mainly been sighted down south at TRU off of colerain avenue and the other is at eastgate TRU. I know its a stretch to drive, but if you really want it they have it...

WOW! the samething that was wrong with your Acid Storm, was wrong with my Thrust!! two left hands!! and plus he was missing a missile as well, but its ok, i can wait for another. If i see sea spray ill PM ya and also about Arcee as well.

later

We went to Kohls in Wooster on 07/19 and they still had all of the Scout series. They also had Bumblebee, Sea Attack Ravage, Ironhide, and Jetblade. the place looked like a heap of kids blew through the place. LOL, Fixed er up all over again. I hate diggin.

After that we went to KMart in Wooster and they had Bumblebee, Sea Attack Ravage, Ironhide, and Jetblade. They also had a 50% off on clearance toys which put the Nebular Starscream at 9.50 according to the scanner. There were two of that fella.

Nothing new at Lima's TRU today...they restocked their PCC box sets, but that was about it. Still no sign of Drift or Thrust anywhere in Lima or Findlay, either. Really wishing that general retailers like Walmart would start getting the new assortments in (which I gather they will soon, since every Walmart I've visited has their respective stocks of TF's running extremely low).

Hey Doc, i know what you mean, i wish all the stores would hurry up and get in the new items, but im hearing August 1st will be the date for eveything. I'm still looking for Thrust since my was messed up from the factory and im hoping to find Dark Mount as well, but thats it for me. Not spending alot this year on Transformers cause i have some G1 catching up to do and buying parts for combiners and just pre-order Predaking so, by the end of the year ill be broke, im sure. But its worth it. Well man, if i see anything ill let you know.

No WFC and no Genline!! i need Thrust and Darkmount!!!

Just a little over an hour ago I checked the TRU in Beavercreek and all they had was mainly PCC figures.

Bought Thrust for now.

So I was down in Dayton today, and after having a kickass lunch at Amar India, we swung by the TRU near the Dayton Mall, and I was pleased as hell to finally get my hands on Drift. No Thrust, though--the rest of the TF section looked pretty well worked over.

I'm short on cash myself, right now, but I thought I would help someone else out if they were interested in a Drift or Thrust. There was one of each at the Medina, OH Kohls today (07/25).

Well Well, your down in my neck of the woods Doc! and you was right around the corner from me and should've stop by bud and we both could have ate at Amar india! Glad to see you got Drift and yes he is badass and about Thrust, all of them had paint issue on one of the wings and really one was no better than the other and in fact i will have to swap my out when i see a better one. Happy trails Doc..

I'll take you up on that lunch offer if you want to do a rain check on it someday, Stock. Amar India was awesome--my wife and I were down at Cox Arboretum, and decided to stop there for lunch afterwards.

Drift was well worth the wait. I'm ambivalent at best about the character in the comics, but the toy itself is great.

HEY!!!! How long has it been since I've been on here?! My computer crashed and I'm borrowing some else's laptop at the moment. Anyway... Hey, Doc... Is it in your capabilities to maybe jot down a list of the 2007 figs that they have over there, I just may be interested in picking a couple of those up!
I... am so so proud of our TRU!! They filled the shelves and pegs with ALL NEW STUFF! They had ALL the new ones out to pick through! The Generations, HFTD, WFC, even new movie things like keychains and RPMs. I had to fight myself from running me out of what little money I had! LOL I saw NEST black Megatron at Wal Mart. Same dude... just black. Not impressed.
You guys remember that I was on the hunt for an Animated Leader Class Megatron? I walked into Avon WM today and there was only one...Shadow Blade Megatron...just sitting there... for only $20! Guess who's now happily on my shelf where he should be!
I picked up the only Animated Arcee that I've seen since she came out. also the WFC Bumblebee and I plan on returning to TRU this friday to see what else I can get my hands on.. Sorry about the long post, but it's been a while. The next ones won't be so long, I promise! LOL
