Thanks man!! Got him!!! I called last night around 5pm and the girl said they were getting a truck at 8 and he was "rumored" to be on it. She said call back at 9 and see if they had him. I figured I'd wait until about 9:30 to make sure but managed to fall asleep on the couch! So, I got up this morning and took a gamble and drove out to the store. I arrived in the parking lot at 7:30am and there was already one car sitting there. I waited and figured I'd get out at 8:45 and go stand at the door. Would you believe at 8:30 if started to rain? Anyway, that wasn't going to stop me. So, close to 8:45 a few more cars showed up and one individual got out of his car and so I knew that was my cue. Come to find out, everybody in front of me were Toys R Us employees!! I think that was cool they weren't allowed to buy them when they came in. At about 8:50, an on duty employee came out and handed out "tickets" for him. There were only 7 of us in line so it was cool. I passed on Acid Storm as did everyone else. I have a feeling he'll shelf warm and will be able to pick him up later. Needless to say, Inam happy right now. I was very pissed with the whole online fiasco again!! I wish I could have bought a second one to try and help get one into the hands of someone who needed one, but they only allowed one per customer.

Awesome, man! I had a fellow TF collecting co-worker kind enough to nab one last Saturday morning for me while I was out of town! One of only two shipped to my local TRU...shewww! They're getting out there, folks...it's just PAINFULLY slow.

 

Ordering this thing online is an absolute joke by now...don't know what's going on between TRU & Hasbro. :shrug

are they really getting out there?

 

Or is this all those stores will ever see?

 

Lest we not forget Optimus Prime 2.0 after all.....

Didn't find one here. Will look again in a week.

Keep calling and calling. When I called one Toys R Us, I asked if they had masterpiece, and before I could finish, the girl starts laughing and says no. She said she was getting so many calls for MP Soundwave. They're getting out there.
