I only bought two at my store, but you can bet there will be a lot of folks who buy them to resell. If you don't have one in your area, this would be a good time to check ebay for those who plan on buying them for quick turn around cash.

Not sure the profit is worth it. Even if you sell for 100, that's 40 COGS + 10 ebay fee + 10? shipping. Even in that ideal scenario were talking $40 profit and I didn't consider taxes, other expenses, bad buyer, etc.

If anyone wants to do me a solid. :-D Havnt picked up a transformer for months since wife's health problems but she saw this and said if I could work it out with someone she'd be fine with it.

Besides that, what does this mean for the future of titan class figs?

Cerebros was basically the only thing that was really worth it in the set. I felt good about paying $100 for the toy, mainly for Cerebros

I'm glad to hear people are finding these at multiple locations. I'd never even heard of this store but thanks to this article and a quick google search I now know there are three in a reasonable distance from me. I'll give them a call in the morning.

You can call around to nearby Ollie's. Just provide them with the SKU# 158543 (the first six numbers of the one's under the barcode). The Maxi I found hadn't been put on the floor yet. They had 3 cases at the Randallstown Maryland store. I showed him a pic of the orange sticker from the Seibertron post and they located them easy peasy. Got one for me and one for m'boy. Happy hunting!!! 8-)

Just got off the phone with the Frederick Maryland store and they have at least 4 as of the moment.

Wow. This is like the Metroplex super sale at Costco years ago... dammit. Didn't get to pick up Fort Max last year, and now the only place I could afford one is nowhere near me...Murphy's Law strikes again... :-( :lol:
...back in my day, you had one alt-mode. ONE! Articulation? why, if you had enough articulation to transform, you had plenty. And if you wanted more articulation, you know what you did about it? NOTHING. You transformed, stood there with your faceplate closed, and your optics sharp, just like everybody else who didn't have ball-jointed this, and swivel-jointed that. And when your were told to, you transformed and rolled out! ...And another thing...

2 Ollie's (that I know of) in the norfolk/va beach area of VA, both just opened several cases today. Not a model I would normally buy, but for that price, I couldn't say no.

I think the Fort Max Ollies Discount deal is limited to the location(s) it was sighted in where the specific overstock is at. Not every chain seems to have it. I say that because I checked mine out today (just up in North Canton, OH) just to see what they had and there's nothing really to shake a stick at in terms of TFs or anything I was personally interested in toys wise. That said I might go back and grab some cookware because adult reasons. Somewhat disappointing on that note, but I'm probably going to keep an eye on it from here on out given the rollover of stuff they have in there.

I just picked up four of these! One for myself, my son and two of my friends. Amazing deal. Felt like I was stealing them. Four figures for just $10 more than the original price of one.
