Yep.  I bought it.  they should be popping up now though.  you could have them look in their system for the UPC.  They can then tell you which stores have them in stock.  6 53569 06425 1

Spotted at TRU in bellevue as well.  Big box.  They had about 5 left, and a guy in line was buying one (I bought an alt 2 pack)...

I found a second swerve this week finally...  Now my little bro will have one too.  People are buying them out from what I can tell.  I think even swindle is selling.

Anyone seen a decepticharge yet?
Anyone in the area need a wheeljack or shockblast and want to trade for something interesting (worlds smallest skywarp would be top of my list :-).

They've been comming in a steady trickle down here...
I expect we'll see more in the decepticharge assortment.

2 Alt Swerves @ the TRU down in Federal Way.  left both of them.

As for the convention, I went and thought it was good considering the size.  There were lots of contests / raffles.  10 dealers showed up ( I can only recall Kicks Hobby and Fantastic Toys and Games ).  There were several exclusives ( a C bot which was the door exclusive, and a More than meets the eye cybertron Jazz ).  Additionally they raffled off a few DairyCon exclusives ( repainted clear red star saber team members ).  I actually won a jazz, two of the star saber pieces and have 5 of the door exclusives smiletf.gif  (In addition Greg was kind enough to let me sell some of my extrasat a table as well )

I went too, actually got to meet ArchAngelz and buy some stuff from him.  I too won a MTHMTH cybertron Jazz (GAWD how I want to open it).

AA - I need to give you my phone number, I still can't find Alt. Serve. redface2tf.gif

i called the toys'r'us and they sed they had no record of alt swerve ever in there store. So other AA is lying or they dont know what they're talking about.

I can't endorse AA, but somehow I think he/she is already more credible than TRU...

BTW I have a an extra swerve if someone wants to trade or buy them.
ROSEDOGGYDOG
Well I've personally have met AA and believe him over any TRU employee.

pdemajo, where are you located at?  I might be interested in your extra Swerve.
ArchAngelz
Just to be clear, the Alt swerve(s) were in the Federal Way TRU diagnal from the Wal-Mart. ( Where Target used to be).  I did hide them under the rest of the alternators.  I may be out there this weekend again so if you want one I'll grab em if they are still there.

As for TRU credibility, sometimes you get people who aren't lazy / or real busy( benefit of doubt) who will actually go check the shelves.  Their system is not totally reliable, as they do have a habit of grouping items under 1 sku etc.

Again if you want one (and if they are still there), PM me. BTW I work off the FIFO system smiletf.gif
ArchAngelz
Oh yeah, and as for my credibility, well, I don't have a way to prove anything.

I don't find it amusing when others post stuff that isn't there / or actually even out yet.  It wastes my time and gas when I go to search for it, and I'm sure many others feel the same way.  I don't like it, and wouldn't do it to anyone else.

I understand that things do fly off the shelf and I try to at least give the poster the benefit of doubt.

Just to tell you the whole lying thing was just a joke. Some people took it seriously, I appoligize for not stating so. Anyways, I would really like a swerve, so i sent you a pm, and i hope you can help me out.
pdemaio
I'm in Bellevue.
ArchAngelz
nothing new in Tacoma TRU, Federal Way TRU ( the Swerve's are gone ), nor South Center TRU.

Marysville Wal-Mart has Cybertron Scouts wave 2 ( HardTop, Recon Mini con team, and Clocker)
ROSEDOGGYDOG

I don't think there were a TON of Swerves anywhere.  The stores that did get them got a case or two.  They are still one per case.  The case should still be popping up though at stores and Target is about to do the holiday reset which may help.
convoy676
in tacoma they had 2 and in lynnwood they had 1. Since i live in canada and alternators are hard to find, i would call that alot.
dbc503
I won't say how many I have picked up and traded/helped friends with.  But 3 total for a decent sized city like Tacoma does not seem like a lot to me.  The Swerve does not sit for very long any where right now.

On a side note has anyone found Decepticharge here in the Northwest?
pdemaio
I've since found a few swerves and it looks like the assortment of WJ, SB, Ravage and windcharger is now being stocked at TRU again.

I'm hoping decepticharge comes out soon.  Regardless, I think we are going to be overrun with ravages, wheeljacks and shockblasts unless they change up their assortment (which is defeinately a possibility).  I wonder how many Swerves there will be?  seems odd that he just kind of slipped in there and appears to possibly be disappearing again.

Someone ring the alarm if decepticharge shows up!

Just got back from Target and they had a Swerve.  Strange since there were no others from the case out.  They are stocking very little until the aisle reset so that is most likely why.
ArchAngelz
2 Swerves up in Everett TRU.  I snagged em both.

I believe there is a Target and a Walmart there.  Your best bet is to do the store locator on each stores website.  I also believe they have a ShopKo also.

Now TRU bellevue has 5 swerves.  And a bunch of swindle, grimlock and windcharger.
Also, I can verify target is stocking Alts again as they have a shelf space labeled for them (although none in stock).

I just bought the LoC of Megatron and Starscream, I didn't get the others cuz I realized how much they cost compared to food, which I actually need as opposed to these, which I simply want. There were the others at the Fred Meyer in Burlington.
