Went to Walmart in Duarte this morning this is what I found.

4x movie leader primes
8x movie leader megatron
1x voyager thundercracker
1x vogager ratchet 2 wave (not the green color)
1x deluxe wreckage
1x deluxe dreadwing
and bunch of potatoe heads prime!

So yeah! I went to Universal City walk on sat. Went to this place calleD THINGS FROM ANOTHER PLANET. I think thats the name. So anyways, I come in. Good timing this guy come out w/ 3x deluxe 08 BB. I was like no way!! This is it!! I can finally buy BB. Well i thought wrong!!! This guy was selling them for $25 each!!!! :shock: :-x . WOW!!!!!!!!! The nerve of these bastards!! So I didnt buy him at all. Im not gonna pay for a deluxe for $25, more than a voyager.

This place was also selling about 4x Evolution of a hero BB for $50. He also had 1x Encore G1 PRIME (COMPLETE W/ TRAILER). 1x Encore G1 Megatron. 4x Encore G1 Starscream and last but not least 5x Encore G1 soundwaves all for $80 each!! I wanted to the buy the whole Encore G1 that the place had. :-( So I went home sad! LOL! Well good luck guys! I just hate it when people try to bump the price's up and the funny thing is they would actually buy it. Good luck hunting guys!! ;)^

I know exactly the place yer talking about; I used to live pretty close to there. Considering their location, did you expect it to be cheap? :-P

Just about any collector shop in the LA area is going to gouge, and DEEP unfortunately.

...good luck on your search!

Most collector shops are selling 08 Bumblebee for $25, just hold out a little longer and you will find one. If I come across one that is in good shape I will grab it for you. If I see any Starscream figure I will try to grab a few as well, so that our poor wallets don’t have to suffer from the hands of those evil scalpers.

Went to two Walmarts today, no luck on the Starscreams. Considering how many Primii and 20th DVD Primes are sitting at the nearest one, I doubt they'll get very many in if/when they do.

Nope. I'm planning on printing out the barcode picture from the MP SS thread in the Toys Forum and scanning in my local Walmart price scanners. Way I figure it, if it shows up, that means they'll be getting it in, or already have it in.
