I agree. I've had no luck finding him anywhere.

Lugnut came as a surprise to me, as I had given up looking for him and did not expect to find that one lying right there among the piles of tossed around toys (that Ross's toy section was a cluttered mess).

He's an alright figure, but he could be better. I think I may still prefer the Animated mold over this one.

Weird.

I think Generations' flood gates are starting to open...

Went back to Target on SR50 next to Fashion Square Mall in Orlando, and wouldn't you know it... I found 2 more Warpaths and 2 more Wheeljacks. One scourge, but no Thundercracker.

Like I said. Weird...

Still in the hunt for RTS Lugnut (sorry to be redundant)

First Lugnut, now Tomahawk.

Walked into Walgreens today, not expecting to find much. And, wouldn't you know it, there it was, hiding behind some DOTM Deluxes along with Reveal the Shield Fallback.

Left Fallback and took Tomahawk. Back when his availability was more commonplace, he wasn't a priority to me, so I didn't get him. By the time I'd decided I wanted him, he was no longer available in (most) stores. Come several months later and now he's mine. :D

Still looking for Masterpiece Rodimus Prime. No luck yet. Only one TRU close enough to me.

Try calling the TRU #800. They supposedly have plenty of them, if you don't mind shipping costs.

That's the TRU Customer Service phone number. It's not a physical store, per say, but they do take orders over the phone.

Where are they located? And do they ship to stores or people's homes?

They ship to people's homes, and I'm not sure where they're located. You'd have to call and find out.

Scored an MP Rodimus Prime today from Wesley Chapel Toys 'R' Us/Babies 'R' Us. They had three left. Pick up one and left the other two.

Also picked up the lone Universe Darkwind that's been sitting there on the shelf with two Universe Countdowns for over two years.

And, earlier this week, I picked up the following from a Wal-Mart Supercenter: Generations Wheeljack, Warpath, Sergeant Kup, and two Scourges.

In the days between today's grab and the Wal-Mart Generations grab, I got Counterpunched (for the first time ever) into getting the Big Lots Backstop, Undermine, and Wreckloose.

So I'd say I've had a pretty good week. :D

Nice scores.

PCC Steamhammer and Constructicons along with a bunch of PCC single figures at Marshalls in Brandon.

Ross Brandon has nothing of interest

TJ Maxx Brandon has a Leader Starscream.

TRU Brandon has BS Generations figures and normal Dark of The Moon stuff.

I need a extra Rodimus for trade. Wish I had gone out to Wesley Chapel TRU instead of the Brandon one.

Good job on MP Rodimus! :D

I just got a Universe Darkwind this year, too. It's amazing how much that has shelfwarmed.

Had to pass this up, but Toys Rus in Orlando on colonial is doing a moving sale. They HAD 2 ultimate primes for 55 dollars each, which is about 30% off retail. Oh well...

I've seen Ultimate OP for about $45-$50 at some Wal-Marts.

On clearance? Any pictures you can provide? that steep of a discount on a $65 - $80 toy is remarkable and would totally be newsworthy if you can provide pics.

I'll see what I can do. Though, it's late here, so I may be misremembering. :oops:

But if the price is correct, I'll see if I can get to Wal-Mart and get some pics (though, finding time to do so is tricky for me this week, having to juggle three class exams along with a tight work schedule (:|).

*Sabr looks at his clock* It's after 1:30am here! :shock: Good grief. >:oP I should probably be getting to bed soon. I-)

Okay, finally got around to going back to Wal-Mart to check the price of Ultimate OP. I was mistaken. The price tag I had seen before was for the Leader class figures, but the store had been sold out of them (and were still sold out when I went back today) and so the Ulitmae OP toys had been scooted over into the spot on the shelf reserved for the Leaders, putting them right on top of the wrong price tag.

Though, stragely enough, the price tag for the Ultimate OPs was missing from their own spot on the shelf. So I took one to the scanner to see how much is was. The machine said something like $64-$65 bucks, which makes more sense. So, my bad on the confusion. :-s
