nice! I go to the same TRU on sunrise too. haven't checked since i order the FOC stuff from the HTS

Kind of an unrelated post, but imma visiting NYC next week from the UK, and I wanted to ask you New Yorkers about the range of Transformers at TRU Times Square? Just wanna pick up some rare/exclusive TF's. Cheers

As of Wednesday there are some FOCs at TRU in times square... wave 1 and 2 prime, a bunch of bumblebees, but some CJ and soundwaves, as well Wave one prime Voyagers. they also have last years Generation figures, minus Thundercracker and Scourge. so Just Warpath, black shadow, kup, and junkheap. some left over movie toys, a bunch of Kreons, lots of cyberverse (not sure of the wave as i don't look at them), lots of Botshots. some Optimus and Bumblebee mask, and an Optimus Statue that you can take a picture with.

Oh theres also a sale. buy one TF get second 50% off

Hope that helps... Enjoy your trip here.

Thanks dude I guess i'll pick up some Generations, both old and 2.0, and probably a Trilogy OP if there is one.

i got FOC Shockwave 2 days ago at Walmart in Vally Stream LI, NY it was the last one and grabbed it before anyone gets it but i was the only one there at the Transformers section so i'm glad i bought it before someone else does.

Just at toys r us 42nd street times sq. Saw 4-5 foc shockwaves if anyone's interested

FOC Shockwave is officially shelf warming at TRU Times SQ there are plenty. but it is going to be $17.49 before taxes.

Picked up FOC Shockwave and Masterpiece Thundercracker earlier in the evening at the White Plains Toys R Us. There were at least 2 more of each available.

They also had a healthy amount of FOC Optimus and Jazz.

So, back home now. Cheers for all the replies Picked up FoC Prime and Shockwave, and Trilogy Prime as well as some MLP and Dark Knight stuff. Then headed to Image Anime and got the SDCC Cliffjumper, and an MP11 Starscream, who unfortunately has the red and white stripe missing from his right wing
And damn, I had no idea MP Thundercracker was available! Otherwise I wouldve picked one up seeing as he's cancelled in the UK :'(

For anyone who is still eager to get one masterpiece TC in NYC, try times square TRU in the morning! I got one from there today, I guess they put out more than 10 on shelf each morning.

For those that live in NYC and is still looking for MP Thundercracker, the Toys R Us in Time Square have them in stock. When I left there tonight 9/3/2012 they still have about 5 of them on the shelves. And they seem to be running some kind of deal/discount because mine only came to about $64.00 after tax. Good luck!

Went to Toys R Us Times SQ today at 8:00 PM shelf of Thundercracker is gone... =/ took a closer look and the sticker tag is $80.99?? WTF is that correct? I know last year with Masterpiece Hot Rod they raised the price after awhile... is this place doing the same thing again? hm....

Saw that price tag before, I think it was actually for masterpiece rodimus, as u mentioned. The item number should not be 787681.

TRU Valley Stream MP Thundercracker 2 left at $69.99.

All of the items at the Times Square Toys R Us have higher prices than normal Toys R Us locations.

Yes it's that's normally true, however when I was there a couple of weeks ago the MP TC's price was $69.99 and there was some sort of discount at checkout. I got my TCs for about $64 each including taxes which I was very happy about.

Don't if he's been out for a while or not, I tend to ignore the Cyberverse thanks to their $10 price, but I found this dude hanging around in Walmart when I was visiting peeps in the southern part of the Hudson Valley, NY



He's the first I've seen, though as I mentioned before, I tend to ignore the class scale.

Went to TRU times SQ today there is 6 MP Thundercrackers for 69.99. go cancel your BBTS preorders. TRU has plenty of these guys.

Was there today. They had at least 30 of them when I was in the store at 5:30 this afternoon, likely more. I didn't stop to count, but he was everywhere.

Yep saw that today when i went to see if they have any of the new Prime voyagers. it is officially shelfwarming... My fear now is that they won't order the Masterpiece prime until these sell out... =/ this happened with their prime deluxe wave.. still haven't seen on vehicon, think they skipped that wave altogether.

Both of you are right. I bought my TC there at $69.99. But I just went there today and guess what? The price is changed now to $86.99! That's insane, no wonder they have like 30 of them on the floor!
