Great set, a couple discrepancies on the box vs actual packaging, but small potatoes. I ordered 2 and well they sent both. Shhhhhhh!
How many Shystrikers do you have now Ed? How does this match up to your custom Jetfire?

Oh geez, let's see...

6 regular skystrikers (customized for: Ace, Duke, Flint, Shipwreck, Snake Eyes and Scarlett)

5 customized Skystrikers: Starstriker (Star Brigade), Jetfire, Thundercracker, Skywarp, and Starscream (G1 cartoon-accurate)

1 SDCC 2011 Starscream

1 SDCC 2013 Jetfire

1 Skystriker MIB

Total: 14 skystrikers.

As for the comparison between my custom Jetfire and Hasbro's, I must be honest—Hasbro's looks nice, and factory made, but it's pretty stark and lacking the detail, attention and TLC that I put into mine. Cobrastickers did a great job with their custom sheet and I'm really pleased with the way mine came out. If I really had to sell one, it'd be the SDCC Jetfire.

Which stores can I locally find the Iron Man Legends Ultron at?

I've also been checking Walgreens for wave 3.5, no dice. Nothing but wave 2 battle-kata roadblocks and wave 1 roadblocks.

Guys is the Black Knight Omega Red wave going to make it to stores or are we just seeing the early jacked up ebay prices? I know there was talk about these late mu items being super hard to find

I've found ONE Night Viper at an undisclosed Walgreens.

Someone on Rebelscum got the whole wave at Target. Jschadt, IIRC posted today on the Marvel Universe thread over there. I think it will be like the A-bomb/Dagger fiasco.

EDIT: 2 people posted, one in NY and one in PA. So they're on the east coast.

I have yet to see the Abomb wave anywhere much less those guys. I don't have my hopes up for HTS, Target is drying up around here for me. They never stock anything.
