Transformers Costco

[TheShadowCat]

So I was at Costco today (for those outside of the states, it's big warehouse sized store where you can buy everyday items in bulk) and I saw that they're starting to bring out the toys for Christmas. One of them is a huge Optimus Prime that transforms into his truck mode. The thing was at least 12" tall and he came with a mini Bumblebee and Jazz, lights up and makes honking and blaster sounds. I almost got him just for the Bumblebee. Almost. But they did a nice job of OP and the detailing looks pretty good with the red and blue flames.

Costco never has toys. At least the ones I live around
Hopefully next time i go though...if they have that optimus ill buy it in an instant

I guess it depends on where you live. I live in suberbia central, so they have lots of stuff for the kids at the one near my home.

My girlfriend had told me about hers having them too. Its the leaderclass Optimus Prime with the small undetailed figures of Jazz and BB. I need to check it out since I've been needing that Prime.

I just bought that for about $35.00. Very sweet toy. Recommend it for everyone, the packaging is freaking huge, close to a can of popcorn, lol.
