I was thinking the same thing about Chad's Joe quantities. Yesterday afternoon, Westland TRU had 1 full set of wave 3's, the cards are pretty banged up

I hope I sell some stuff on Sunday.

I think Chad has bought out BBTS when it comes to 25th joes TT, I'll keep my eyes open for more wave 3 if you want me to. My buddy Dave did find one whole set of wave 3 at the Canton Target, but that's the only time I've seen them there.

I too hope to sell some stuff on Sunday.. although, I dont' have much to sell. Here's hoping someone will have Transmetal or Transmetal 2 Megatron...

BBTS has nothing to do with it, although I have had a set on pre-order there for 3-4 months. They are getting diddily.

I can't find them at retail is what I meant. Why are you fired up to find MP SS at retail? Don't you already have 2 or 3?

I only have one. I want another. Also, I'm trying to hook up predaking, PQP, noob and Randy(who really needs a Seibertronian name) with one too. And depending on how many I find, I'd try to get one for you too

yeah the network is trying hard to get MP SS in the area. thusfar we seem to have been stiffed (much like rumble and ravage) and they've had them north, west and east. i'm even tempted to head down to toledo to get one if they are sighted there

Anyone tried Jackson lately? They told me a few weeks ago they had 18 on order. They had pretty much every other exclusive, I don't see them skipping this one - especially after they told me they would get them. I have had great experiences with the Jackson Wal-Mart.

I'm going to tell you this here, then tell you on IM I called them on saturday and they had no record of them in their system

i think RC hit there recently. but yeah they did have the alts. and GM likes driving there

Toledo sounds a lot like p-o-t-a-t-o...

POTATO!

I'll give them a call tonight and see what I can find out

You could always come to Lansing too. The Eastwood Wal-Mart apparently has 5 remaining.

Ugh. That Wal-Mart is one of the worst in the area. I wouldn't bother unless your looking for a G.I. Joe 5 Pack (they have 30-40 of them, no Cobra or Cobra Legions - just G.I. Joe) or Sigma 6 stuff, they have 40-50 newer Sigma 6 figures. Star Wars / Carded G.I. Joe / Transformers is pretty much nothing.

Yeesh...you guys hear that they caught the guys in that decapitation-murder? It was 2 freaking teenagers...one 17 and one 18...the 18yr old is a Canton HS Senior. They were arraigned this morning in Romulus, and denied bail.

Worst thing about it, they said that they did it for "fun"...

Good grief.

Wow you have got to be kidding me...i would love to meet their parents...

I got a few sets off BBTS, found a few sets at retail, and Todd brought me a set and doubles of wave 3 from the A2/Saline road Target a week or two ago.

Just to clarify, they are not all mine. My brother in Pittsburgh will be taking 2 of each back with him the next time he swings by. We both wanted to have sealed and loose sets so I've been picking them up until I hit 4 of each. The extras came from ordering multiple lots from BBTS to troop build. Which ones are you still looking for?

As Todd has mentioned, I have 14 Crimson Guards ordered, I love that figure

Now they just need an EEL, oh what I wouldn't give for an EEL

ok, so I've been browsing the toys forum and noticed the number of people complaining about how fragile the new MP Starscream is. They've broken tail fins and said that there's stress marks all over the place. I've transformed mine probably about 8-10 times. he's still in one piece and I don't see any stress marks... are they letting the Hulk transform their toys??

oh, and I'm in the middle of season two of Beast Wars and just have to say
DINOBOT!!!!!

Same here, no problems what-so-ever with my Wal-Mart Starscream.

...and all you Wii owners don't forget that TRU has a deal "Buy Super Mario Galaxy and get a $25 gift card". I'll be buying SMG there tomorrow!

The guy who was decapitated was the son of a family my parents are friends with. It's just horrible...

Man that's a real sad story. I haven't seen anything about it on the news, and usually they pick up on cases like that pretty quickly. It's quite surprising.

I finally got a hold of MP SS and I love him. Best figure of '07. I picked mine up from the Battle Creek Wal Mart. They have two out on shelf and 15 in the back. Good luck to those looking for him.
