The local TRU's here did not get the Crumb Bomber yesterday, which is fine, but they better be there tomorrow.

I also noticed that they have scrapped the entire Clone Wars front display as well. Yep, the week the show premiers they pull it down. Brilliant. That colossal display was only up for a few weeks and was perpetually half empty because they are incapable of stockiong toys.

Epic Fail. Just Epic.

Same story at my tru, McMetal. No crumb bomber, no wave 6 or 7 of cw and no rotj wave of legacy. I couldn't find $30 worth of goodies to support a free Ponds, and the display was down.

I just got off the phone after calling, literally, every single TRU in the state of VA. NONE of them had any Crumb Bombers.

Pathetically ridiculous...if I can't score any new figs today on top of this disappointment, I am going to be in a foul mood tonight.

I wonder if that would work in conjunction with my $10 off coupon with a purchase of $75 or more?
That could have possibilities, but that is still a very expensive ship.

Our TRU got the new Crumb Bomber in today and one of them is now mine.  ;D

TRU really kills me sometimes. This was a brand new item right off the truck, and where do you think I found it? ON TOP of the action figure aisle, along with the surplus Homesteads, Turbo Tanks etc. I had to get an employee to drag a ladder over just to get one down.

Super product placement there, boys. Lucky for me I am tall and a thorough looker or I could have easily missed them altogether.

Oddly enough, no sign of the other exlusive TIE ship...

Stopped by TRU at lunch and they didn't seem to have gotten anything new really. Definitely no new figs, and no TIE Interceptors. They only had the 1 Gunship leftover from Wednesday out - no new ones.

I did see another Geonosis Assault BP and after a quick but intense personal debate decided to go ahead and buy it. I may need that 2nd Gun Pod one day, and even if not the scarcity of these makes it seem like a good investment. (Especially in the old blue packaging - I have seen shots online of this repackaged with the red motif and marked as TLC, not TCW.  Do I hear "variant"?)

Nothing new at TRU again today...that last Crumb Bomber is now gone and still no Interceptors. Zero new figures as well, shameful.

They did get another GunPod BP, that's about the only thing they seem to restock consistently.
