The hunt be onTF: Aramada toys have finally gone on clearance in this area. Yay! So far I have only seen good clearance prices at Target stores. The bad news though... is they have hardly any toys! It seems they cleared out hecka fast after going on clearance. I just can't win here. I did at least pick up three or four sets of Mini-Cons that I didn't have already, and one of the $10-size Autobots.
Also found an open box Prime at a Toys R Us for $12.90 (normally $40). It seemed to have all parts so I picked it up. Man, what a lame toy. The base Prime cab unit itself is fine, nothing unique, isn't doing anything other previous primes haven't. The combined "super robot" mode is a piece of crap, though. The legs don't move, and the upper part of the robot body has no back. Actually it's missing about half its chest entirely. Ugh.
Still hoping to find Galvatron (didn't like the Megatron colors at all) and at least one of the redone Seeker jets at the clearance prices...
