Trip today to TRU's 'round Eastern Nassau revealed that Rodimus and Dirge are all over the place in mass numbers. The Energon Minicon 6 pack as well is in good supply.

Last trip to NYC's Image Anime got me a BT-04 Hound. BT-03 Streak was in large quantity as well as the Energon Standalone Prime and I believe lastest set of Worlds Smallest.

Battle Ravage with Decepticon insignia (found at K-Mart in Astor Place near New York University a.k.a. NYU)

Dead End (also found at K-Mart in Astor Place but I didn't buy it cause I'm not into Alternators or Binal Tech)

Swerve and Roadhandler from Transformers Universe (forgot where i found it but didn't buy it cause had to get a present for my girlfriend)
SkywarpsGhost
Target, Westbury
All Energon Powerlinx Battle Midsize and Small Characters... Towline, Rodimus in new packaging, Energon Hot Shot, Offshoot, Energon Strong Arm, Downshift, Insecticon in new packaging and Omega Supreme.
AutobotHound
deadend at kmart...really?
SkywarpsGhost
TRU, Carle Place... catchin' up significantly but of course never leading the pack...
Energon Doom Lock, Offshoot, Command Ravage in large supply... Energon Sharkticon, Tow-Line, E Hotshot, and Downshift in there too... as well as Shockblast and Cliffjumpers well hidden. Minicon Perceptor on PL Battles packaging was an interesting sight too.

With the buy two get one free sale going on now, it was pretty sweet as I napped Shockblast and Sharkticon with Tow-Line free of charge.
Mirage
I saw Alt. HOund , Silverstreak, and Dead end at Target in Elmhurst , NY.
SkywarpsGhost
The new Target in Hicksville... first day opened I checked it out. Plenty of Energon Omega Supremes, all (and only) the PL Battles Omni and Terrorcons, and all the new PL Battles little guys like Sharkticon and Towline and Downshift, the new Universe Nemesis Prime with yes, the backwards waste, and the 3 latest alternators... 4 Hounds, 2 Silverstreaks, 2 DeadEnds... for the first time since our introduction to Alts, I have seen Transformers sans Alternator Smokescreen!

The bigger size guys like Jetfire, Landmine, Ironhide and Scorponok however where the only figs still in the regular packaging...

If you need to catch up go here now... the store was EMPTY. The official opening is the 11th and NO ONE knows it's open right now.

Hey! I was there the very same day. ( I live near there)

I didn't see any new alternators but I did see universe whirl & magna stampede.
must have just missed them.
SkywarpsGhost
Image Anime, NYC... has the Re-Issue Insecticons and both Red and White BT Meister... for now though I passed on both. The Red one is on display... he looks HOT!
However, Energon Dreadwind from Times Square TRU is now MINE! The new Energon Ironhide with the Hound paint scheme is in abundance as well. Other then that, just all the same as the current above posts.
SkywarpsGhost
Does nobody else live on Long Island or NYC??
Massapequa Wal-Mart has now Slugslinger... he's cool... worth getting.

i picked up the white BinalTech Meister from Image Anime on friday. i'm waiting for them to get the E-hobby Insecticon set.

then today, i picked up Energon Sharkticon at the Toys R Us on Rt 110 in Huntington (near the Walt Whitman Mall). they also had Cliffjumper, Towline and Downshift. no Slugslinger though...but i got him already when i was visiting friends in Austin, Texas.
SkywarpsGhost
Woah, I was there Friday too... pretty cool. What time? I came in at about 6:30 with my girlfriend and brother (identifiable by his broken arm and black cast) and stared at all the new goodness for quite a while... was thinking of picking up BT Silverstreak but passed only to twenty some odd minutes later change my mind to go back and find the joint closed! Wonder if we saw eachother, haha!

Anyway, only new report is the Energon Armada Cyclonus and Demolisher are now at Kaybee in the Plainview shopping center. $13.99 each is quite the rip off!
SkywarpsGhost
Sunrise Malls Walmart.... scored myself Alternator Tracks! HELL YES! Jazz was sold out... but he won't evade me for much longer. No new (combiner) Energon yet though, but I got my eyes peeled.
SkywarpsGhost
Jazz has been captured... apprehended at Target, Carle Place NY.
On my break from work, hell yeh can't top that!

i snagged an Alternators Jazz from Kmart in Huntington on RT 110. it was the last one they had.

got Energon Bulkhead from the Target in the B'way mall in Hicksville last night. they had 2 in stock.

how many Jazz's did they have in Carle Place when you got him? a buddy of mine who works near there is looking for him....thanks!!
masterminicon
Went to TRU today, and saw Energon Ironhide, Dreadwing, and Command Ravage. For any Transfans who live in Rochester, New York, here's your chance to get them. I only saw three E Ironhides and two Dreadwings, but a fair amount of Command Ravages. I'm not going again any time soon, because I'm a little busy for the rest of the month as of tomorrow, so I can't pick one up for anybody. But hopefully, anybody can use this information.
SkywarpsGhost
When I got Jazz he was the only one left... however, just last night (Wednesday Nov.17th at about 7pm) my brother called me to let me know that Jazz and Tracks were in stock at the new Broadway Mall Target. That info didn't help me as I already own them... hope it helps you though and you get 'em if they're still there.

p.s. I saw those two Bulkhead and there was also a Landquake too last time I was there. Be sure to post if you find any new Energon (the combiners) I've been lookin' for them for a while now.
Evil Hamster
Seen Dreadwing, Beachcomber, landquake, wing saber, and grimlock and swoop in target in grand newton, queens

but I prefer the Japanese versions plus I'll get them later

I was just there only minutes ago. I'm only a few blocks away from that target. They had Dreadwing, megatron, nemesis prime, lots of omnicons & a few more
BUT none of those other guys.

they didn't have wing saber or the dinos yesterday either
SkywarpsGhost

Holy cr*p, I thought I was the ONLY one online! eektf.gif eektf.gif eektf.gif

Only thing I can add is Grimlock/Swoop and Wing Saber at Greece Wal-Mart, but that was a couple of weeks ago...

Oh, and...nuts, don't remember numbers to names...but combiner limbs A-1, A-2, C-1, and C-2 seem to have reached "saturation point", at least at the four area Targets...

Went to TRU in Rochester to exchange a gift for my sister, I got her the wrong one, and one the way to the PRDT section, I came by their TF section, and thought I'd check it out, not expecting anything new, they did indeed have Ricochet, Rodimus Major, an Energon Cliffjumper, Shockblast, Energon Ironhide, Dreadwing, Doom-Lock, Command Ravage, and almost nothing else. All their Optimus and Megatron figures, both the separates and the double packs, were sold out, and the entire section was almost bare save some collector's editions, some repaints, and some Energon wave 1 figures. This was all about 12:00-ish today.
deaddude
just last week at tru in bay plaza (co-op city) found a flood of dreadwings and shockblasts, all the omnicon/terrorcon recolors, a few other random energon figs, oh yeha and about2 sharkticons. there were only a few universe boxes, and there was also the value pack with energon megatron and OP for $46

I barely even bother with either TRU anymore -- bad enough WalMart and Target are at least a month behind their counterparts in other cities icon_sad.gif

(usually count on us getting something just about a month after B-Lo, despite how close we are to them)


Anyway...coming home from a LONG concert road trip Monday morning, I stopped at W-M on Route 5 in Herkimer and they had two each of Alt Grimlock and Swindle -- I bought one of each and left the other set.
deaddude
checked kamart in bayplaza in co-op city yesterday. the horror... the shelves had so little on them, not just TFs, but everything.. disgusting. all i found was 2 towlines, slugslinger, snowcat, scorponok, ironhide,energon ironhide, demolisher, 2 or 3 downshift, and alt silverstreak
SkywarpsGhost
Got a few guys recently...
Omega Sentinel is everywhere on the Island in Nassau.

Steamhammer & Stormjet where in Times Square TRU this past weekend. Got the only Stormjet I saw... three other Steamhammer where there. Alot of 2 packs of the Omni/Terrorcons as well in a bin. Alot.

Target Hicksville has the rest of the first wave of Energon Combiners. Got Treadshot, Sledge, and previously from there Skyshadow... passed on that Blue Constructicon though... didn't like him. There where two left. Waiting for the green one I am.

Didn't get around to Image Anime this month. Soon. I'm sure they're loaded with new goodies.
