Same thing happened with Alternators Swerve. Saw it one time and passed because it was a repaint. Now it's one of the rarest of the retail releases for that series.

You sound like me on both. I passed up Armada Overload, because the Ultra Magnus deco was seen before it was ever released.
Overload was EVERYWHERE. For like, a year. Shelfwarming. Not going anywhere.

I had no idea Ultra Magnus would be such a hard find. And the only time I *ever* saw one, he was in the hands of someone else who got there just seconds before me.
I finally broke down to go get Overload, after weeks of fruitless searching, and by that time, there wasn't any Overloads to find.

My story for Swerve is identical to yours. Although, no big loss. That one doesn't hurt at all.
