Re: MP Soundwave @ TRU.CA

I honestly think the worst thing you can do is listen to a tru employee.

The TRU employees at the Dartmouth location are first to admit that they are told nothing. All I'm going to ask them is if they had received anything yet. I'm not looking for any insight on future shipments.

Their system simply shows any stock that is set to arrive to that location as 'In Transit', even if it hasn't be delivered to the warehouse yet. Keeps everyone in the dark. When a truck arrives they don't even know what is on it until it's unloaded. I also know that they are not going to place these items on the shelf so the only way to find out if they have any available is to ask.

I am more interested in knowing if any even showed up in Nova Scotia at all. So far no sightings have been reported and I really don't think there was any stock left from the first run that went across Canada. We are always the last to get it, if we get any.

hey man, u talk to any tru people around here? any word on if any are going to show up?
4 Soundwaves came an went according to Arron (A Collector) at TRU. Sold out in one day. I can only assume that because there was no sightings that non-members or employees grabbed them up. My money is on the latter. Restock scheduled for late September.

System shows 6 Metroplexes 'In Transit' and 0 Acid Storms. That's right we are not getting any Acid Storms in NS as of right now.

Watch TRU will likely flood the market with them in November. Then it will quickly become the least valuable toy in TF history.

I am not judging or anything, but what makes you think that soundwave will flood the shelves or they are able to restock? Seems like pre-order folks hasn't received their order and most TRU sold out their stock? Maybe you are right but It is highly unlikely people can gets it in store now. I know in the states are a bit easier to obtain.

No need to judge. I was being facetious.

They haven't even started filling online orders yet. They didn't actually have the stock they took preorders for, they strategically took preorders to figure out what size order to place.

So it's more like they haven't actually come out yet rather than they have all come and gone.

I guess we're all just playing the game of luck then.
