I went to my local t r u this morning a bit after opening and saw they had about 15 movie deluxe figures including 08 bb and long arm and what not.. I dont really want any of those so I went along my merry way. Well later on I thought it would be cool to repaint one of those so I go back and wow. 8 hours later they are wiped out. damn kids.

Probably 1 hour after opening they were gone- doubtful if any deluxes would last 8 hours anywhere. I dont even bother with B&M stores anymore... I like to sleep in a little on the weekend.

LOL, every store around me seems to have gotten at least a case of deluxe and some voyager Prime and Megs. You can still find voyager Megs at all stores and voyager Prime at one store. But the only thing left of deluxe is one single dreadwing at every store. Seriously every store has exactly ONE Dreadwing hanging in the deluxe section. haha

My gf called me from walmart (not her store) the other day and said they had 4 Voyager Primes. Since we've never seen ANY here in the dayton area, I told her to stand guard til I got there since she was being a tight ass and wouldn't get me one. Got there in like 10 minutes, got mine, and we went out to dinner and went to Kohls for some clothes and stopped back at Walmart. No more primes. That sucker can move. Yet all the Megatrons were still there.

I don't think kids would have gotten them. That's ALOT. I mean, its TOYS, and its meant for kids, so we can't blame them for being into transformers cus of the movie. Most likely, someone came and swept them all I think...

I went to walmart Saturday night and they had Alternators, Classics and two 20th Anniversary Primes. After I snagged some Alternators and Thundercracker repaint I went back 20 min. later and the rest of the alternators (at least 5) and 1 of the Primes was gone! Gotta move fast in this game!

It's going to be strange to see Transformers figures actually staying on shelves in a few months when Hasbro finally catches back up to the demand.
