Agreed. Detroit-area 5-belows have had those DOTM deluxes and HA basics for at least 3 months now. Also Bot-Shots, not surprising given the price point, often in big buckets just as you walk in.

So far all the Cyberverse I've seen there are the case with Flamewar and orange Knock-Out.

EDIT: Just noticed those Legends Gold-bugglebees in the pic, which I haven't seen in 5-Belows around me yet, so that's newsworthy, AFAIK.

My main reasons for setting foot in that chain will continue to be Thundercats and Generator Rex figures...and maybe the occasional Blythe with show-accurate hair color.

This old news for me as I found this out last year.

Toys R Us has Skyquake in the UK. Go onto the site and you'll find him there, as well as Masterpiece Optimus.

Those TFs have been at Five Below for ages now. The HAs at least (probably the Bot Shots and Crossovers, too) have been there since before Christmas!

The Target and Five Below I go to (both in the same square) have been clogged with the same Prime Legends for the longest time. Target only seems to now be getting the Beast Hunters Legends in.

And those have been there for... a very long time now. Uh, two years maybe? Five Below got all the RtS Legends a few Christmastimes ago; Bumblebee for some reason has never left.

AHA, so that explains why the 5-belows near me don't have them: all 3 opened less than a year ago! Should have guessed, considering almost-Goldbug's been at Marshall's for over 2 years.

So while deluxe prices skyrocket in big box stores, they're simultaneously shoved down to $8 or $5 across the street; risky strategy. The consistency of the case assortment is interesting, especially that it's the one wave from the middle of PRID. Any word on Tuesday Morning? The otherwise 5 Below exclusive wave of Thundercats showed up there at the same time, but I haven't seen any new TF stuff there since the DOTM deluxes last year, possibly the same case 5 Below's getting now (Roadbuster, maybe Topspin, my memory's not photographic here).

The Big Lots part of this interests me, seeing I never found TFP Dlx. Dead End and Airachnid. The Five Below part, not so much. All that stuff in the Five Below pic is stuff that is STILL warming pegs at my local TRU. Stuff they refuse to discount, which is hilarious to me. Two years out after DOTM, and they're still trying to get a full $16 out of a Nitro Bumblebee.

This thread has inspired me to stop in at my local Marshall's although I own one so now this makes two.

Yep. found 6 of them at my big lots....bought them all.

Pfft, they're still trying to get rid of those.
