mflinn
I PM him, but as of 6 pm on easter I didn't see anything however I didn't do a complete inspection.

I did find Tiny Tins are now on the end cap a couple isles over.

This is Harshman Meijer I am refering too...
mflinn
Ohio Valley Mall TRU on other side of Ohio (WV side) has a plentful stock of most newer toys, however no trace of Universe's Latest Wave or Wave 2 Dlx Energon, however they do have most other figures in bulk
mflinn
Meijer @ Harshman Road just got 3 Skydives in stock looks like they just came in too...They restocked everything else...

To bad I just got mine from BBTS the other day...

Now if I can just get ahold of King Atlas...

Oh and they have Spiderman Legos on the endcap and Marvel Legends just got back stocked...and/or restocked...
---The Rat
I found King Atlas, at Target in Huber HTS
mflinn
I now have the King that was at Huber Heights.

Additionally Rodimus Prime and Dirge are at Dayton Mall TRU.
Quickshift

mflinn
K-Mart @ Dayton Mall has

Armada Supercon Prime x2
Armada Gold Prime with Jetfire look further down in aisle to find it
1x Universe Skywarp
Massive Number of Minicons on top shelf, I grabbed the last Redeco Emergancy Team (since I have been meaning to pick it up)

EDIT they also have Universe Optimus Primal & Universe Razorclaw

And for some reason I think they had a Energon Landmine on sale cheap, but couldn't swear to it...

Target @ Dayton Mall had Glowbots, first sighting in Ohio me thinks, I grabbed one Taxibot what remains

1x Taxibot
1x Buzzerbot (Glowbot)
2-3x Skydives

K-B still doesn't have G1 Spychangers I was shocked.

Nothing else special @ any other locations, however I did not check Dayton Mall TRU

FYI Fanfics in the Mall might be moving somewhere, since this is one of only 3 potintal places to get TF comics in Dayton just thought I would say something.

Oh and if your looking for G1 Marvel Comics they have plenty I also have a few duplicates.
mflinn
Trip to Cinci today

@ Target on 71 they had Taxibot
@ KB Outlet in Xenia Outlet Stores they had





Notice the big blank space?

Okay that about wraps it up for what I found today other than rain...
mflinn
BX has HOC Wave 5 1x of each figure with some Paradon Medics it can't get rid of
Speaking of can't get rid of they also have Armada Scavanger

Walmart in Salem has 4-5x Sunstorms and Wave 2 Dlx Energon but only 1x each figure....lots of Megatrons and nothing else of note, oh wave 1 or 2 Universe if your looking for older figures Walmart seems to be the place....just watch the high prices and falling stuff from the top of the shelves...and the spills and such.....gosh that Walmart is really gettoh more so than the rest of them......
mflinn
No news on Defensor @ Dayton Mall KB's
Absolutely nothing new @ Dayton Mall TRU

Edit - What is everybody looking for in Ohio?

I am looking for Demolishor & Mirage...
naladahc
Columbus has been a total wasteland as far as anything new.

Shelves at ToysRUs, Meijers, Wal-Mart, and K-Marts are clogged with tons of 1st wave Energon figures, as well as many Prowls and basics.

Still have not seen a single Arcee, Insecticon, Mirage, or Demolishor.

Heck, there are a ton of Armada Smokescreens still in a lot of places.

Apparently Kay-Bee had a sale this week, but from friends who went, they didn't have anything new but they did have G1 Keychains.

Overall, central Cowlandia is just clogged with old stuff.
Quickshift
Picked up an Energon Mirage (leaving none) last night at Wal-Mart in Parmatown Mall. (Yes, we have a Wal-Mart in a mall in Cleveland. No jokes please; I've heard them all!) They restocked their Energon basics too, but I didn't find Arcee or Insecticon. Being so limited in the cases right now, someone may have grabbed them before I got there.

Point being, Cleveland Wal-Marts are restocking this week and getting new stuff out on the shelves. Happy hunting!
SMITHSQUARED
just got Energon ARCEE and Insecticon at walmart in miamisburg, should hit the super walmart in kettering before friday. I got there at 6:00am and there was only one
mflinn
Second hand knowledge, but my friend went to Walmart here in Dayton, he didn't say which one(didn't think to ask since I don't go there but once or twice a year), and he found a stash of hidden Mirages, he took it home and discovered it didn't have a battery cover, he took it back and they gave him his money back and he inquired if he could go get another one, and they stated that they shipped them back because they all were missing a part...

Dang that sucks...
But he could be feeding me bs...

Just FYI

ON to Today's Finding Meijer on Harshman Road
Restocked recently

Tiny Tins are down to Three Mirages

Energon
Rodimus seems to be sailing off the shelves
one prowl hidden above
no wave 3 Energon, at all not even hidden
3 Unicrons (one more than last time they must have sold one and got two in because the colors flopped before i was 2 black and now they have one black and two armada colored.)
Lots of Treadshots
one Ironhide
Jetfires don't stay in stock

Universe
Skywarp decieded to return
Skydive is hidden above down the isle aways, and one in the normal spot
Triceradon check where the other sky dive is

Millions of Wave 1-2 Energon Basics, no Arcees though
Down to two Energon Primes down from 8 (he seems to be selling well there)
Lastly a few tidalwaves maybe 2
Landmine has yet to make an appearance at this Meijer Location

Alternators 8x Smokescreen (I am assuming all Smokescreen, because they get 1 or 2 Sideswipe in and the next week they are gone) Sad cause it always seems to be before I get paid) Since I want another one...

Edit - Meijer also had lots of Universe Megas Primal, Depth Charge, and Two Pack...
SMITHSQUARED
I read another post about the mirage missing the battery cover, there may be some truth to it, I havenot seen any mirages anywhere myself
Quickshift
Spotted (and purchased) Energon Insecticon last night at Wal-Mart in Strongsville. No Arcees, Demolishors, or Mirages.

I think a bunch of Mirages shipped out like that - a couple people on the TNI TF boards were complaining about the same thing. Mine was fine.

Quick sidenote - unless you're a completist, skip Insecticon. By far the worst of the Terrorcons; this guy even makes Battle Ravage look awesome. thumbsdown.gif
Fujikuro
I've found both Demolishor and Insecticon at Walmart here in Cleveland Heights, but that's it. Target, of course, has nothing.

I disagree about Insecticon - he's not the best, but I think he's a pretty good toy. I like the old G1 stuff the best, however, and he would have been considered a pretty articulated one for that line.
mflinn
Beavercreek Walmart
Nothing at all not even Wave 3 Basics
Wave 2 Basics
Wave 2 Dlx's (not many)
Exclusives on Sale :-)
PS the inventory is scattered all over the place so look all around if you want to brave going to this dirty store...
Quickshift
Medina Wal-Mart has Insecticon and Demolishor; they had Arcee last week, but they're sold out now. No sign of Mirage since a few weeks ago when I spotted (and bought) the only one at Parmatown Wal-Mart. Zilch for new product at Targets, K-Marts, and TRU.

Fujikuro - have you checked Targets for any 20th Primes on clearance? I haven't seen any, but would like to pick him up if he's cheap. I live on the west side, so I've yet to get out to any east side Targets to see what they've got.
---The Rat
Hey guys I found a complete set of the KB toys protecobot at the kb at the dayton mall(in dayton), and the tricounty mall (down in cinncinatti)

Sweet I just wish my dang preorder will come in better get them soon because I am going there tommorrow to get them if they are still there...
---The Rat
my only real comment on them is, that they are shorter then I some how pictured in my mind
Quickshift
The only updates I've found this week are more Wave 3 bots hitting stores. All have been sighted in the area before at one store or another, but they're starting to become a little more common now.
---The Rat
ha ha !!! I'm so proud I'm the first kid on my block to own alt Silver Streak smiletf.gif
I just picked him up from the walmart in huber hts ohio. I would like to say there were more but at this point he's the only one. oh well still yay for me
mflinn
Trip to Cinni this weekend

The mall with the Applestore, think it is Kenwood Mall
KBToys had (keyword as in not any more) all of Defensor
That is one small KBtoys too Three Isles
They also have G1 Spychangers for those who haven't picked any up yet.
Oh last but not least Wave 3 Basics ;-)

TRU across from the same mall had Everything that is out now Minus, Mirage, Shockblast, & Cliffjumper

They also had it on the End Cap so look there if you can't find something...

Middletown halfway bettween Cinnici & Dayton
Target = they had King Atlas, as well as Wave 3s & Wave 2s Minus

Huber Heights sounds like a great place to get TFs - I remember a posting on Unicron.com a while back stating they had 3 Ultra Magnuses there for a while! Still, it's nice to know that Silverstreak has at least made it into Ohio... the hunt is on!! rodimusgrinstatic.gif

Yes I went in there as an after thought, on my way home from a movie.
Normally that walmart doesnt have anything. The target accross the road always has new stuff, but 90% of the time I stay out of that walmart redface2tf.gif

the sad part here is I wont be happy untill I have found yet another streaker, to finish my current kitbash\redeco project grimlocklaugh.gif
mflinn
Avoid Walmart like the plague but i do go to that target....will report back what i find this weekend...
tidal_dave
Absolutely nothing new here. The Walmart in Sandusky did have a few mirages last week, but they're long gone now.
SMITHSQUARED
Whoo Hoo,
just left walmart in tRotwood (north of dayton) and they had not one, not two but four alt silverstreaks, other than that everything was the same, as an fyi I buried the remaining s-streaks behind the smokescreens after I bought mine. good luck
mflinn
NOthing new in Huber Heights Local or @ Meijer that I frequent however there was a restock of about 25 or so Universe Tiny Tins @ Meijer (They should have stopped at the first batch)

hmmm its been 2 days I wonder if I can still get lucky, when I head over that way this afternoon
Quickshift
Let us know, Rat... that may just be worth the road trip from Cleveland!! (Lots of stores between here and there to hit - I could have one mega toy-hunt day!!)

Still nothing new to report in the Cleveland area. Checked WM in Strongsville, Parmatown, and Brooklyn within the past 3 days, Brunswick K-Mart yesterday, and Target in Strongsville, Parmatown, and Northfield in the past 3 days. I'm headed out to Westlake today and will check the Target and WM out there.

UPDATE: Brooklyn WM has nothing new, but only 2 Smokescreens for Alternators... could a restock including Silverstreak be coming soon?? Westlake WM has nothing good, and 23 Anniversary Primes - hopefully a clearance sale will be coming soon on those! Target in Westlake has the Universe Mini-Con Tiny Tins. Yea. redface2tf.gif
---The Rat
I went there and got the last one of the 4, so good luck again guys
IcePagoda
Best place in Cincy to find new TFs is a Walmart actually.

The one on Colerain Ave. by I-275 usually gets everything new first.

It's where I got Mirage (with battery cover intact), Demolishor, Insecticon, and Arcee, but I haven't seen Silver Streak yet.

Trick to Walmarts is to look in their overhead storage areas. I've found more new toys up there than on the shelves themselves.
SMITHSQUARED
Congrats Rat, and IcePagoda is right, my wallymart, near the dayton mall, has 6 anny primes on the the top shelf (along with about 30 e-megs) i dont kwow if they are waiting for something or are just stoopid
Quickshift
I've also heard the shelf tags themselves have codes on them which indicate how long it will be before the item is restocked. I think 'A' and 'R' denotes a shipment within the week, but I'm not sure. I haven't crossed paths w/ the toy manager who told me that since then, and the regular crew doesn't seem to know anything about it.

Any Sightings of SilverStreak or Mirage @ non Walmart Locations...

Doing a Kettering Run this weekend...

TRU, Dayton Mall (the bad one not FF Commons), KMart, Target, & KB

Will report findings then...

Sorry had a change of plans I am going to PA in a few hours...lets hope by the time I get back we will have Mirage, Silverstreak & Omega Supreme Here...
SMITHSQUARED
went to dayton mall and super wallymart this morning nothing new to report, they still have about 3 20th primes a piece if you need one
SMITHSQUARED
just an fyi superwallyworld in kettering had 2 e-mirages this morning, everything else was the same thou
SMITHSQUARED
went to target (dayton Mall) yesterday and discovered a-unicron clearanced to 19.99 if you dont have yours you better hurry
mflinn
I am back and will do a report on what I find...
Huber Heights has been Quite lately I am thinking the Target up there is due for some Alternators if I remember it only had one or two...
THere stock of TFormers was depelted minus the Universe Infernos & Ratchets...
So maybe they restocked...they seem to do a good job of keeping stuff off the shelfs (AKA Selling stuff)
mflinn
Kmart has Armada Minicons on clearance for $2 lowest price besides the Base BX which had them for 1.78 with no tax
mflinn
Target Huber Heights
Edit sorry I bought both of these...not sure if any left was In a hurry...
1x Hound
1x Silverstreak

They also had Demolishor only saw because was on front of deluxes...
and a few others didn't look to much because I was in a hurry and had to go to work...

First non Walmart in this area to have Hound and probably Silverstreak

I will add this to my impressive collection of TFs once I get home...

My Transformers Web Page...

post pics so we can enjoy...dayton south as in Dayton Mall Target, TRU area etc.

Meijer harshman had nothing new as of yesterday...but they did have a restock on

Skywarp
-which when it goes on sale i am going to grab another one because he is popular...seems that he takes over the #1 slot of # of toys there the rest is distrubited.
They also have Black Archina if you are looking for her...
Optimus Primal had returned I think he sold out so they moved stuff in from other stores to see if it sells here...

No restock of Arcee or Insecticon past the intinal stock leads me to belive that basics aren't selling well which means a sell on them before too long...
Time to pick up triplicates of Divebomb when that happens
