Found this (LAST ONE!) at Walmart on Bethel Road in Dublin, Ohio (near Columbus). $29.95... The Tuttle Crossing one has them IN-STOCK, but told me point-blank they are NOT opening them for anyone! They plan to put them out in the next day or two (along with ALL the wave 2 figures AND 6" figures they ALSO have in stock, but wont open).

Comes in the normal box with pics of upcoming toys (nothing we haven't seen before). The inner box has NO TIES!!!! Just the Figurine and the Storm Charger in bags with directions.

The Figure: Mumm-ra is, as we feared, essentially a "Happy Meal Toy". No posability, and has button batteries inside his back. Even has the tab you pull out to "activate" him. BUT, you CAN replace the batteries. AND YOU WILL NEED TO! See, once you plug him into the ****pit, his HANDS STAY ON. Definitely remove him from the Charger for long-term display or storage. Two-tones of molded plastic: Red and Grey, plus the LED hand lights. He does NOT light up on his own (*unless you touch his Thunder Lynx connection point with metal on his back). Only when in the Charger.

The Vehicle: This looks AMAZING! Dead on perfect, great paint and STURDY! The eyes on the top of the tank GLOW RED when Mumm-ra is inside. Looks GREAT in a dark room! Press the button to the right of the ****pit/face and the ****pit door closes automatically and the Charger REVS and ROLLS! It BOLTS fast (and runs off 3 AA batteries, not included)... Does not turn... Just in a straight line. And you must hit the button again to turn the engine off (*It does shut the engine off after about 30 seconds). Hit soft to turn off, hit until it CLICKS to open the ****pit again. Smaller than the Thundertank, just barely (almost the same if you remove the "bikes" from the Tank). Like I said STURDY! ****pit door goes on GREAT (Unlike the Thundertank, LOL)!

The box has 3 pieces: Figurine, Tank and ****pit door. Easy to get going, and its actually kind of fun... Sorry my pics are so poor... Only had my old camera ready to go. Was just so excited to share...
