Finally got my MP-10!!! Now, I can retire MP-1 and MP-5 to another shelf, so MP-10 can take his rightful place at leader of the MP Autobots!



Had to buy a flippin' dryer because my family managed to wreck our current dryer. How you find a way to break a $400 dryer is beyond me.

Ordered this from TRU this morning, as they had an outstanding deal.



Sadly, I should have known getting a good deal from TRU was too good to be true. An hour after I got my confirmation e-mail, I got an e-mail telling me my order "wasn't being cancelled, honest" but just "delayed". I checked the order status, and it now lists as "backordered". Only problem...this set is retired, so they aren't going to be getting any more from LEGO. Now the set lists as only available for "In-Store Pickup" on the website, and no store anywhere near me has any. I wonder how long it will take TRU to fess up and tell me they sold me something they didn't have? Or will there be a Christmas Miracle and TRU will actually pull inventory from some store somewhere to fill on-line orders that they already took?

This is typical for TRU. When Transformers Masterpiece StarScream came out, TRU cancelled hundreds of orders because they didn't have the product in the store, yet still had listed it online for "in-store pickup."

They cancelled one of my orders, then called me and told me not to come to the store because they had sold out of all the figures. Then, they refused to put me on a list to hold one the next time a shipment came in. I only wanted ONE. Even worse, I had to wait 4 business days to get my money refunded on a mistake that they admitted to making. I was so peeved that I contacted the corporate office and they fed me the same line of BS and refused to do anything for me. "There's nothing we can do" is a HORRIBLE thing to say in customer service.

Well, they still haven't actually cancelled my order. I'm wondering how long it will take them.

This really sucks as this is a set I've wanted for a while, but couldn't justify paying full price for. It will irk me no end if my one chance to get it ends up being a case of probably missing out by mere minutes...

It IS a Christmas Miracle! They actually located one of these in stock, and my order is being fulfilled! (I guess I'll temper my expectations until I literally have it in hand, but that's what they SAID in the e-mail I just recieved.) And it should still be here by Christmas!
