I recently picked up HA Jazz, my real first HA figure that im happy with and wont sell. I had HA SS, but i was displeased with the figure a whole lot and sold him, i just couldnt stand that car kibble on his back anymore, it drove me nutz! Anyway, i just got HA Jazz and i must say WOW and good job Hasbro! Now im on to finding HA barricade and from what im finding out and hearing he would be the 2nd best in the HA series lineup, but i've only seen him twice in my area since his release, which i think it was around Christmas of last year for his release, so i just thought i'll just order him from HTS and to my surprise they dont even list him or HA Mudflap, but i could careless about Mudflap for now, but anyway, my question is why wouldn't HTS have him? could they be out of stock or waiting for more? or i think they should have pre-order up for him. your thoughts on this?

Unfortunately, that ship has sailed. He was in stock around February. Your best bet is TRU:

No worries and glad to help. Also, don't miss out on him! He's definitely the second best in the line (was the best until Jazz).

Where did you find Jazz in Dayton already?

Every store around here it seems has just left over crap. Englewood, Huber, Beavercreek. All crap, only HA figures I've seen in a long time are Sideswipe and BB. Only ever saw Barricade once and I bought him on sight. Never once seen Mudflap. And doubting I'll see Jazz.

The only place in the Dayton area that either Stockade or I have seen him is the Target on 725 and I've heard he's been seen in Bellbrook and in Bevercreek.

I thought Barricade was coming back around in the second or third wave of the new packaging. I'm fairly certain I read it somewhere.

Just peeked into my nearest TRU and they didn't have anything I was looking for. They did have two of the older HA BBs and some Barricades that weren't there before.

I never even saw a HA mudflap..I kind of wanted to have both skids and MF's HA version together..I didn;t like the brown panels on HA Barricade, not to mention he didnt really have a "Human counterpart", kind of defeated the point of Human alliance I thought..They could have stuck him with the holo-man that appeared with both Blackout and barricade..

I have been disappointed by the Mudflap situation too. I actually think that HA Skids is a really great figure, and it would have been nice to have the pair. Oh well.

As far as Barricade goes, I freaking love that figure. I like the transformation, and I think that both modes look good. I actually think the use of Frenzy as his counterpart is appropriate, but I do see your point. Halo Man might have been ok, but at least it is possible to have Frenzy hiding in the chest of Barricade as he did in the movie.
