Found myself two Wreck-gars, Optimus, and Perceptor at a Marshalls today in Manalapan NJ. They also had RTS Legends.

I'm not expecting to have any luck, but I might try to check out my local Marshall's (as well as a TJ Maxx; they sometimes have really good TF deals too, and can have old/hard-to-find figure).

You do realise that Perceptor they sold you is an empty box?

Thu Jun 02, 2011 6:44 pm

thats a really good price, but i really doubt i have one of those stores around here

Thu Jun 02, 2011 6:59 pm

I guess the product has made its way stateside, but the major retailers have not picked it up, and it's being picked up outlet style at these stores.
I've seen some fairly recent stuff at my kohls, jazz and tracks.
I hope it slides its way into my area.

You need to make a DC: 30 perception check to see Perceptor.

Crap! the secret is out

Thu Jun 02, 2011 7:12 pm

I went to the Marshalls by my house and they only had a couple of ones from ROTF.

Another good place to look at is Gordman's. Picked up a HM figure for $16.

I don't care if they are selling them for $25.00 at the local 7-11, I just want my @#$% THUNDERCRACKER!!!

(but you can bet that for $6.99 I'll be getting my butt down to the closest Marshall's ASAP)

This isn't nationwide yet, and they're also appearing at TJ Maxx.

This news makes my brain hurt

News Credits: 1 · Thu Jun 02, 2011 8:29 pm

Yep, I heard this earlier tonight and checked out my Marshall's as soon as I left work. They had a 5 Wreck-gars, no Perceptors, one RTS BB, and a bunch of the Legends figures. I got 3 WGs.

I should get some of those Legends though. Trailbreaker looked cool.

Hey, I see Scrapheap in the instructions (yes, I know it's old news). So, is it a certainty that they'll make him, ya think? Probably in the later waves of DOTM, I'm guessing.

Yeah after I heard the news I went to a local Marshal's and under all the crappy ROTF figs that still linger I found 2 jems I won't have to order online....Legends Goldbug and Trailbreaker! :KREMZEEK:

I went a couple weeks ago and it was the same here; I went again over the weekend and found a couple RTS Prowls and a Megatron!

Got Legends MEgatron, Starscream, Prowl and Trailcutter there t-nite.(Marshalls)

Found none of the others however :-(

I am on the prowl and have put word out to friends and family, they will be mine.

"In southeast Asia"

Oh wait these are barely out in retail! And a delux is approx. $21.90 USD :-x

Hit my local Marshalls, TJ Maxx and Ross, found RTS Perceptor, Prime, Wreck-gar, legends Megatron and Legends Starscream (black head version).

Now I guess I have to find Prowl, Trailbreaker and Prime.

Wonderful headsup. Just called mt marshall's and they have wreck-gar and he's only $7.

Fri Jun 03, 2011 3:10 pm

I checked at TJ Maxx today and hit paydirt by finding RTS Wreck-Gar. It's fun because I was in the same store a couple months ago and found Animated Wreck-Gar. :grin:

Fri Jun 03, 2011 6:02 pm

Thank you for posting this...I found Perceptor, Wreck-Gar, G2 Prime and Bumblebee at the Marshalls in Cicero, NY for $6.99 each - I was afraid I would never find them. Thank you so much...

Fri Jun 03, 2011 7:02 pm

Jackpot! I cleaned out my local Marshall's! They had no deluxe RTS, which I didn't care for becasue I already have them all, but they had Legends! They had 3 Trailbreakers, 2 Prowls, and one of each of Prime, Goldbug, and Starscream. No Megatron though. I wasn' bummed because I thought maybe they were just not selling him because he is a gun, but other members are saying they got him! Anyone out there who wants to trade a Trailbreaker for Megatron PM me!!

You need Prime and Goldbug. I got both of those and three others, but no Megs. Were are you at in Indiana? It says NW on your info bar and the only NW locations are in the Chicagoland area and Valparasio. I am in central Indiana in Anderson. I have a Marshalls here, and there are five in Indy, which is about 20 min from here. Good luck hunting for the other two, they are cool! Especially Prime!

I was able to go to a Marshall's this evening, and I got Wreck-Gar, Perceptor, and G2 Optimus for $6.99 each! I was worried that I'd have to resort to paying outrageous online prices for Wreck-Gar and Perceptor. I decided to get Optimus since he was so cheap, and since I wanted the sword for my Classics Prime.
