hmmm, I saw KA in Moscow Wal-mart, 10 landmines in Moscow too...

Moscow is like 8 miles from Pullman, where there's nothing to do.

Also Megs, Signal Flares...

EDIT/MERGE: moscow is in Idaho BTW, Pullman is near the eastern border of WA.

Went down for a Mariners' game today so I stopped in at a number of stores -- and for cryin out loud! You guys are supposed to have stuff well before us Canadians, and there was only two things I saw that I haven't seen up here (out of 2 Targets (Northgate and Bellingham -- Bellis Fair), 2 TRUs (Everett and Northgate), 1 Walmart (North of Everett -- exit 200 off of I5), 1 K-Mart (Bellingham -- just south of Bellis Fair) and 1 Fred Mayer (North Bellingham).

The Walmart had Megatrons (which we probably should have soon, or might have had and sold out), and the Fred Mayer had the new wave of Heroes of Cybertron (the Metroplex wave). It was spooky there were four completely different stores (of the 7) and they all seemed to have exactly the same stock -- with the exceptions noted and the TRU exclusives.

Seriously -- what happened to the Insecticons, Arcees, Demolishors, Mirages, Shockblast etc? There should have been at least one of the above in those stores, shouldn't there?

Like I said, spooky.

The only thing I really came close to buying besides the Megatron and HOCs, was the Powerlinx Prime (Armada -- with the Universe CD) for $19.99 at TRU Everett.

Ah, well, better luck next time I guess.

Be well.

We have had those around here for about a month or more..i picked up mirage day before yesterday.
and arcee and other last month.the first shipments sell outwithin the day at most stores around my area (Tacoma)

OK anyone know some good places to pick up takara imports on Western Washington? I'll through in mine: Palace Gifts in the international district. If you go, I suggest going on saturday as the person who is into TF's there works on saturdays. His name is Steve. Tell him Pasquale sent you.
Another spot is International Models His stuff is more expensive and he has less of a selection. But he does have some, and his models are amazing!

This past weekend I bought all the new aerialbots (or whatever they're called) at Wal-Mart in Marysville, they've seem to have had them for awhile and still have a whole lot more.

Then tonight I found the new Starscream at Target in Everett, only one and I bought it.

They also have Roadblock, I think that's his name, I left him on the shelf.
ROSEDOGGYDOG
Well I went back for Roadblock tonight and he was gone.

I'm thinking all the stores are gearing up for some big shipment wave cause the isles are pretty bare or just over stocked with crap.
ROSEDOGGYDOG
Well they're now coming...and even my local Wal-Mart is getting them now clap.gif

Tonight at local Target they had 2 ea of the new Universe figs (Cheetor, Frostbite and Longhorn), I bought 1 of each. No energon though.

With such good, I decided to let it ride, and ride I did on over to Wal-Mart.

There I found all 3 of the main energon combiners (Steamhammer, Barricade and Stormjet). There were a couple of Barricades (got myself one since I alread have the other two).

While there I picked up a 2 two packs of energon powerlinks figs.
I ended up buying two of the same packs slytf.gif Went to Cust Serv. to return one, 3 people ahead of me someone was returning new energon figs, one was new Starscream eektf.gif (see endcap) the others were Roadblock and Cheetor. So I bought all three.
ROSEDOGGYDOG
Wingsaber/SixShot/Barricade/Kicker were spotted at local Target in Lynnwood

Wingsaber and SixShot are on endcap
ArchAngel
In Woodinville Target:

4 Barricades
2 Energon StarScreams
2 Roadblocks

1 Frostbite
1 LongHorn
1 Nightslash Cheetor
ROSEDOGGYDOG
Yeah it looks like each local target here has gotten two of cheetor, longhorn and frostbite.

I hid a energon strarscream in the Lynnwood Target behind some dolls, thought I'd offer him up to somebody.

Now only if we can get the rest of the Constructicons and Bruticus.

Still no Grimlocks and Swoops. I even went as far as Lake Stevens. Lots of Alts showing up though. Might try Burlington/Mt. Vernon soon.
