Technically, we are assuming that they are going to stock the Beast Hunters subline. What if they aren't? After all, it's already mid-February and the only new TF stuff they've put out are Kre-O sets and Kreons.

And speaking of Beast Hunters, I should be hitting up Walmart for the wave 1 cyberverse commanders, yes? Or have I missed the boat already?

After years of Bumblebee, I think TRU is just afraid of buying any more TF from Hasbro.

I still have 2 MISB and 1 loose MP10.
The loose one and one of the MISB I am planning on keeping but I do have 1 MP10 MISB available for trade only. (no cash).

MY bBST is toally up to date, other than a few not listed there.
SOME of the tfs listed MISB are in storage behind like 25 poker tables so I'm reticent to get at a those ones.

Which street?

Last night I was combining Microchanger Superion with his 5th member... got all the kibble in the right places, but anybody know what I can do with the robot body? Only thing I could really think of is hang him off the back and clip the arms on to stabilize the wings. But I managed to incorporate everything except the heads, and it frees up another base block!

They seem to be a little sparse right now, but I'm guessing they'll restock. I recommend the commander Predaking. Prime and bulkhead are ok but they are completely hollow in the back, which was a tad disappointing.

Well i'm thinking Power Rangers is plentiful because it is the 20th anniversary.

Spider-man had a movie last year and is a perenial favourite.

Transformers will have reduced space when you factor in the other movie related toys. I remember reading somewhere that TRU and other retailers will always give more space to toys that are launching with a movie. They just sell better.

Just updated my salesthread for Metrocon.
Will do some last minute digging before Metrocon to bring even more stuff.

Me too regarding my sales thread and Punch/Counterpunch that everyone has been asking about

Due to the high number of queries for TFCC deluxe Punch/Counterpunch, I've decided to hold a silent auction at Metrocon for Punch.

I hope this will give everyone a fair chance. In the meantime sales thread has been updated and tons of pictures now available. Click on my signature.

It will be quite funny to see what our Quebec boardies think of this. Can you say Complexe de Napoléon?
