You can now buy Uruk Hai crossbows at TRU. They are not in the Nerf section though... They are near the other LOTR stuff.

...O and Maxx Shots are now 5 bucks... so stock up before they are gone.

I'm beginning to re-think my current level of Max Shot hoarding.

6 just doesn't seem like enough now.

[Pineapple]

<-- The look of frustration when I can't find any MaxShots @ TrU in Honolulu. They have every other Lanard foam gun, even that dumb blow-gun, but no MaxShot!

I'm getting to the point where I may need to get some mainland help to get a MaxShot or 8. That, or my next trip to HNL I'll look for an Uruk-Hai crossbow.

Bah.

[Spoon]

Holy crap five dollars?! Damn, I had hoped these would be around for a while. I don't even have one anymore, I gotta go buy a bunch...

[Jin Kazama]

Were really gonna be screwed if Lanard dies. Really, really screwed.

Damn, I just bought a max shot off gunned down for $10. If only i had waited a couple of days.

[Talio]

Dude I just bought two. I wanted to by the third but this lady and her kid where over there and the kid was begging for one, and I had taken all of them, so I gave them one. Damn I'm going to have to drive AGAIN to the closest TRU in PA. Oh well, if they shoot half as good as I've seen I may keep one for myself and keep the other either mint or mod it for one of my buddies.

[Slicer]

it stinks so bad-the last time i was a max shot was over 1,500 miles away, in a grocery store.

I can confirm the $5 Max Shots at TRU.

I just cleaned out one of the three TRUs within 15 minutes of my house.

What's interesting is that the Max Shot and First Shot were relocated to the 'seasonal' clearance area but the Triple Shot was still in the normal location. I didn't check the price to see if those are being cleared out as well. It may have simply been an oversight by the employees.

It's quite obvious they're blowing these things out of stock. That said, they also had a bunch of AT1k and AT2k in the clearance section. Perhaps TRU has just started lumping nerf-like products in with the water guns as seasonal items. I once talked to a KB manager who said they only get new Nerf stock in early summer and then sell it till it runs out, frequently moving it to a KB Toy Liquidator store towards the end of summer to make room for other items.

at my tru they didnt have any at guns whoch surprised me but was fine b/c thay had maxx shots for 5. i bought2

[cxwq]

Update:

Visited my second TRU today and they had no Max Shots but did have half price AT guns. AT3k rings up at $7.49 now.

[Wads15]

AT3k rings up at $7.49 now.

Yes. I've seen some a few 4Ks at 12.49 or something next to that. I'll go to TRU in Albuquerque... 1 hour drive. They have Max Shots and AT2Ks. Hey, it's for a good cause . TIME FOR HOARDING! There should be a national holiday for hoarding...

EDIT- Ah ha! Amazon is cutting prices, too! (figures)

[Talio]

*Update* If any of you like RF20's half as much as I do (they pwn PCs ) you will be interested to hear that Toys R Us secured a deal with Nerf to re-release the RapidFire 20. I bought 2, because I'm greedy. That makes 6 automatic Nerf guns in my arsenal now, 2 WFs, 3 RFs, and 1 PC. Anyways, they are $15.00 a piece, and I figure I could sell one of these NIB for maybe $30.00 to some poor sap on Ebay, so I'm making back twice that I paid.

On a side note, Max Shots for $5 including tax here as well, but no AT guns to speak of besides the crappy Jet fighter. Also, TrU made me aware of a new line of guns that I will start a new thread here for, in case anyone wants to discuss it.

I can confirm rapidfire20's at TRU. Brand New Box.

At my tru there are 6 more MaxShots left and they are by the sports section. But i can't find the Uruk-hai crossbow where are they located?

[six-hungry-ducks]

Damn, I'm happy that I'm going to TRU tommorrow! I'm gonna get 4 Max shots for myself, and 4 more for my friends, but get this: I'm not going to tell them they are down to $5! Yay more profit for me! I'm also going to get more air tech guns, and hopefully get the new gun if I see it.

[cxwq]

Good luck.

I've been to 3 TRUs so far and found a total of 3 Max Shots. These were all stores that had previously stocked them, they just ran out fast.

Ive been to one and have seen 7.

[six-hungry-ducks]

Yea, but I live in South Carolina, and I'm going to Charlotte, North Carolina (45 minutes away) and I don't think anybody but me and my friends play Nerf in our area. Maybe little kids would want one, but none of my friends are going to get to go to Charlotte any time soon, so I'll be a dear and get them for them. Lucky for me I have a grandpa that spoils me terribly (except he doesn't buy me stuff, just takes me everywhere). Hehe. Well I think I will go to bed now. School in my area started last week so it's a school night. It's 10:30 in my area. Good night my G-dog homie fly cats.

[wtrent10]

does anyone here go to mijers???? The king of all stores??? the store of salvation that would kick tru's ass in a boxing arena even if tru had kmart on it's side??? well, do you???

[Jin Kazama]

Where the fruit are you located.
I just cleaned out 2 TRU's of their M shots. lol. 10 for 50 bucks....... unbelievable.

[SniperWolf]

well I'm hosed... I went to TRU today and saw only 2 RF20's and 4 AT4k's. I bought a RF20. I also went to Home Depot looking for CPVC but found nothing. what is CPVC originally used for?

[six-hungry-ducks]

We'll I'm back. Me and my friend went to TRU and got some Max Shots. I got 4 and my friend got 2. We also got 2 first shots. We cleaned it out. I can't think of any other TRU in my area. Oh well.

[Jangadance]

I also went to Home Depot looking for CPVC but found nothing. what is CPVC originally used for?

I think CPVC stands for Chlorinated Poly-vinyl-Chloride... The Chlorine part means that it's safe to use for water. CPVC is a better composition suited to handle higher temperature water, like tap water. PVC is more used for plumbing I think; cold or tepid water.
