Stopped into Toys 'R' Us today just to browse, and I noticed they moved the Sigmas into the toy aisles, instead of being stuck in the back, as they always have been, and I passed an endcap full of Snake Eyes' Hovercycle (sadly, not a single Storm Shadow one... Sad

).

Notice the price tag?

Yeah. They also had that giant..."hawk" thing, but I wasn't sure if it was for the 2.5" figures or the 8", so I didn't bother to check the price on it.

If anyone still needs a bike (or an extra for some reason), and is willing to pay cost & shipping, I'd be more than happy to pick one up for you.

Not a bad deal at all. I think they're going for around 9.99 at my local TRUs. The SS ones are more elusive though.

The Dragonhawk is actually a 2.5" vehicle and what an awesome vehicle it is. You might want to consider picking it up (esp. at the prices i've seen it going for at some stores, 19.99 and under), but keep in mind that the rest of the 2.5" stuff, esp. some of the last waves might be really hard to come by.

I've seen the SS bike plenty of TRUs, just always full price. Not that $15 is horrible, but $8 is a little nicer... Neutral

Yeah, the cycles have been clearanced here too for $7.98 the last couple of months. I now see only one or two of the SE cycles hanging around.

As for 2.5" Sigmas, the Dragonhawks are populated and discounted everywhere here. The cheapest I've seen it was for $14.99 at Tuesday Mornings. The other 2.5" are harder to come by now, but can be still be found at ROSS and Marshalls. What's interesting is that the ROCCs are just starting to show up. I found one for $16.99 at a Grocery Outlet store this week (BTW, what happened to that GO thread?). I'm hoping it's still there since I'll have some fun money by tomorrow.

I got lucky a month ago, and scored the last two bikes at a TRU near my work for $6 and change each. I'd been holding off on getting those, but decided to grab them primarily for the weapons. I was pleasantly surprised with the bikes themselves, after unboxing them. Certainly can't complain for the $13 it put me out!

It pays to visit two different stores...

$7.98, baby!!
