That's what I was thinking too. Of course, if they put out a Soundwave Masher, I will be powerless to resist.

On a side note, I love the promo shot on the front of the packaging with Bumblebee's head on Prime's body. "Arise, Bumblemus Prime."

I've seen Venom once or twice, but I have yet to see Rulk or GR at retail around me.

Soundwave Masher is coming in wave 2,it's up on BBTS.

Saw a bunch of new Guardians of the Galaxy merch at Target and TRU today. I might go back to Target and get some of the small figures. They had them priced at 5.99 each while at TRU they were 9.99. No pictures this time though...

Saw this cute little fella today at Toys R Us, who nearly ended up coming home with my GF and I thanks to his fantastic puppy dog eyed stare, but alas, we decided to leave him on the shelf. Perhaps another day...

although, as I looked at the picture after taking it...it looks as if he has a 6 pack of Mickey's to get him through the tough times, so I'm sure he'll be alright!

trebleshot · 06-30-2014, 08:01 AM

I know these have been out for a while, but I saw these for the first time around me just recently.

Also saw the new(er) AOE voyagers. Seriously considering picking up Hound. I love how he's armed to the teeth, like ROTF Recon Ironhide. "Galvatron" is a pass unless I find him on sale for cheap.

Well, there's a future "Look What I Just Got" post. Might even be tempted to get two of them.

bmorr · 06-30-2014, 09:15 AM

Saw all the GOTG toys over the weekend. Instant pass. The only legends figure that was gone was Gamora.

Phantomcrow · 06-30-2014, 07:40 PM

Saw the deluxe TF Mashers over the weekend. Super Prime with his shoulder pads and super tall boots, and Grimlock who is kinda cool. The pic on the box with Prime body with Grimlock head is priceless :-)

snake5289 · 06-30-2014, 08:05 PM

I'm digging the Grimlock. May have to pick it up when/if I see it. So far I've only seen Marvel Hero Mashers.

I left this at a local Marshalls store. It was only $3.99:

Il Cattivo · 07-09-2014, 01:02 PM

almost bought branch bash groot. I think he'd fit in with MU. I might go back and pick him up as I don't have a groot yet (not counting the one from the GOTG set).

Phantomcrow · 07-10-2014, 01:00 AM

Been seeing all kinds of new Monster High hitting shelves.

I might break down and get this Swoop ( I will call him by his proper name) pack (and the Grimlock pack I posted about before) He is just so nifty.

Iceman · 07-12-2014, 12:20 PM

New TRU opened in town. For the most part it was nothing I haven't seen a dozen times before. Did spot MP Grimlock for the first time but I'm steering clear of him at that price.

More wave one stuff from MI and the Cap Legends.

Brand new store and it looks like they only got one case of 3.75" Black Series.

wow, a TOYS R US that actually has TOYS.
We have 2 or 3 Marvel Universe figures hanging in our TRU store.

305Batman · 07-13-2014, 04:37 PM

I wonder if that NOW Cap has a good face,every one I've ever seen hasn't!

You mean bad paint apps or something? I've seen a ton of those figures and I haven't noticed any that were terribly bad. I do think I remember hearing some people complaining about the head when they wave first hit though.

SHAEGGY · 07-13-2014, 08:16 PM

Wow, a Marvel Legends A.I.M. Soldier in the wild...and next to a HYDRA Soldier, to boot. Wish I had been lucky enough to happen across these. If you're feeling generous to a total stranger and happen to see these two still hanging there on your next TRU visit, I would gladly reimburse you for them.

Iceman · 07-13-2014, 10:04 PM

Passed on plenty of AIM/Hydra guys the last few months. No one wants to pay shipping for just one or two figures.

SHAEGGY · 07-13-2014, 10:18 PM

ML Cap2 figures have really started to dry up in K.C. I never saw a single A.I.M. Agent on the pegs but have been fortunate enough to find four HYDRA agents, many times they were the lone presenter, oddly enough. I still don't know why Hasbro single-packed the two army builders in this series. I even had to order a case of the newest wave just to land Black Widow to complete my Mandroids.

I'd love to find a pair of A.I.M. agents to finish this series off.

JustryGT · 07-14-2014, 05:08 PM

ML Cap2 figures have started showing up in my town. I saw 2 Black Widows at Target.

Yet to see the black widow yet. Maybe I'll drive by my Target tomorrow and see what I find.

SHAEGGY · 07-14-2014, 09:24 PM

Those Monster High tags look like they could be Gordman's stickers, but that's just my best guess.
