If you have a "5 Below" discount store near you, I suggest you check them out. I found RTS Legends Optimus, Megatron, Starscream, Gold Bumblebee, and Trailcutter there, all at $3 a pop.
They also have Lego Minifigures. And a lot of candy. M "Worth Checking!" Sipher This post has been edited by M Sipher: Aug 3 2011, 11:02 PM -------------------- The ISLE OF RANGOON - Advantures in Learning and Sarcasm!

Sipher Yeah 2 of these store opened up by me and those figures were all over the toy pegs, Prowl is also available as much as the others. --------------------  |

Tomorrow I have to make a stop at Hobby Lobby, and with one of these on the way, I'm totally making a stop.
Thanks for the heads up. --------------------  |

Well, I grabbed Meggy for the "we may never get this again" factor, Bee because YAY GOLDBUG HOMAGE, and Trailcutter because... uh... he was only $3. I didn't really find myself needing another Prime or Starscream, though.

I have one about 50 minutes from me. Perhaps I'll stop there this Sunday.
I heard people are finding the gray helmet Starscreams occasionally too. Randy --------------------  |

Closest one is about an hour and a half away. That a bit too far for something that might be there.
And I already found all the Legends up Canada-way, so I don't really need more of them. Looks like an interesting store though. -------------------- |

Closest one to me is in Merrillville, Indiana, which is a six-hour round trip. That sucks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-screamer.gif)

I always thought it was a camping supply store of some kind... Does this place carry anything besides the Legends? --------------------  Looking for; 2005 Botcon Ratchet, Junker Classics Optimus Prime (for parts) |

Ollie's is getting these in as well. $1.99 each.
The one I went to only had 3 Gold Bumblebees on the pegs, so they were really picked over. MIKE engledogg This post has been edited by Engledogg: Aug 4 2011, 11:36 AM -------------------- |

it might be time to hit the Big Lots/Odd Lots, then... i figure that'd be the logical next step for these releases.

Went to the five below ten minutes from my house on the way to class and left with a full wave. I'm not the biggest legenfs fans, but these have all been pleasant surprises

Mmm, triple bypass.
Oh, and a pile of Legends too. They were on display at the registers, in case anyone doesn't see them in the toy section. -------------------- |

A whole lot of them at the one around here. Saw a Gray helmeted starscream, even.
