The Platinum sets are tempting. I was impressed and thought they looked very nice in person. I stopped by my TRU a few times last week and kept checking TRU.com for Metroplex's in-store availability. He finally popped up as "in stock" on Sunday afternoon. I guess the Labor Day holiday shifted my TRU's delivery day from the usual Tues/Fri.

went back to TRU for an other toy run... came home with the MP soundwave. I already have the Takara one and was going to get the Takara tapes.. but I just got the tapes AND soundwave for the same price ... so im all set until I can find metroplex and the new MP figures hit spamS

I bought mine on 9/8. I doubt TRU could do a price adjustment with my receipt and coupon? I saw your thread on the Mattel board, nice finds on the Paul Heyman. Nothing happening at my two stores.

Thanks. I guess it doesn't hurt to give it a try. You have nothing to lose.

TRU did allow a price adjustment on Metroplex, almost $28. Then I used the $28 and another coupon on Platinum Ultra Magnus:

received Springer,Sandstorm & Blitzwing today. absolutely brilliant. like them all, but I really hate Blitzwings ability to hold together... seems almost like they really sacrificed some stability for the triple changer part... I think they should have looked at animated BW for some ideas...

I think they should have looked at animated BW for some ideas... my Blitzwing is gone away until Christmas BUT I have heard this complaint.wont bother me too much because he will be going on my pre 86 movie Decepticon shelf and standing there looking awesome but yeah....its a letdown that way for some.Animated Blitzwing is an EPIC bot. since then the following bots have arrived Beast Hunters: Shockwave Grimwing Generations: Roadbuster IDW Megatron Impactor Twin Twist Topspin Whirl hoping to score Skids,Dreadwing and some of the new G1 character legends before Christmas too.

I just found trailbreaker and hoist... but my trailbreaker was missing a rear tire.. and I didn't notice... but when in bot mode, which is hot all my tfers are displayed it doesn't bother me.

I received this guy a couple days ago from HLJ.com. I originally had preoders with spamS for the three Datsuns but switched over to HLJ. Prowl was $60 shipped (with the faster EMS, about 3 days)from HLJ while the spamS price is $80 before shipping.

Hobby Link Japan, HLJ.com. Prowl is sold out and they stopped taking pre-orders on the other two. Occasionally, they re-list items. I lucked out last Thursday and caught them when they reopened sales. The previous day, all were unavailable.

Even though this isn't an official Transformers release, I'm glad I finally bought it.

I picked up Streak at the Post Office. Here he is side by side with the TRU reissue and a group shot with my original G1s.
