This is not true?? 2 NY stores have 43 on order and that's it. Where did you get that from 4 per store??

With the news that this was now available at retail I decided to hit all the Wal-Marts within driving distance, just like I did when the Classics Devastator and Alternators Rumble and Frenzy came out. I noticed that only one of the stores I hit get the exclusives. Is there some sort of criteria a store has to meet to get exclusives? If all the other stores I hit never get exclusives should I even bother with them? It would save me a lot of time, effort, and gas to just check the one store that actually gets them. Even when they finally got the last exclusives in stock I had given up and bought them online. Also is there anyplace where I can just preorder this and let someone else do all the legwork?

I have two Wal-marts near me, one regular and one super. The regular doesn't get any exclusives. It didn't have Rumble, Ravage, Dev, nor any alternators past the first ravage assortment. It also did not get the Easter basket Aerialbot KOs, or anthing else special TF wise.
The super has gotten all of them, so I am not even bothering to look at the one that hasn't gotten any of the other exclusives.

It registers as not on file, however...with a second scan (not sure what she did) it came up.
I have good news. (got this from a manager)
The basic gist is this, he's a store exclusive and therefore a one time only offer (like you see computers in their circulars for low low prices, etc) and it's true that he's non replenishable, but that only means a certain number were made, period. Not a simple one or two shipments per store. So if you miss the first shipment, they will receive more, up until all of the stock is completely depleted. Then once that happens....he's non replenishable. No more will be made after Hasbro meets their quota.
So we will see him, he is a store exclusive (won't be found anywhere else in the US) and he has a locked in price of $48.88 and will only go on sale or clearance if his price is adjusted. She told me they will not raise the price at all.
