Still trying.

I just watched this toy hunting video on youtube:

In it the guy finds 4-5 Brainstorm @ a single Walgreens. Thats crazy since most stores don't have any. Anyway I believe it was a store in or near Stockton, California for those wondering. I know not really local news but if you know people in that area that can get to a Walgreens for you it might help ya out.

I was in the US last week and went to at least 8 different Walgreens and only one of them had him. I was able to pick up a few, but it didn't seem to be a common item.

So far, has anyone managed to ACTUALLY find a Brainstorm at EB?

I looked through the thread, but didn't see anything.

I don't believe so, no. It's been other Hasbro Walgreen's exclusives found at EB Canada, hence the thread of hope.

We could either not get him at any retail, get him at EB, get him somewhere surprising like TRU or Wally, or he could show at Winners for all we know.

Frustrating. I'd have bought the Takara one instead except for his not having the face mask.

Might go like US MP Walscream did: never came to Canada but was easy to buy from US folks for a small, reasonable markup.

I'm still leaning towards the walgreens webpage ordering, we just need to find someone with a US PO box.

Let Me if you want one. My cousin in Baltimore has offered to ship them up to me. I can get 2 per order. Let me know by Sunday. I live near Guelph could ship out to you or meet up at the con in January.

I asked my sister to try and get me one. She's living in Seattle right now, I won't actually get it till she visits for Christmas though.

I don't understand why they decided to make such a sough-after character an exclusive.

Man, my buddy in Seattle has reported just garbage distribution for Titans return. Doesn't mean Walgreens won't get one but hes only seen bits of wave 1 a couple times.
