I went to 3 Targets, 2 Walmart and a TRU today only the Walmart on 434 in Altamonte had anything. 1 x Dark Crumplezone, 1 x SD Scattorshot and the Third wave of minicon 2-packs (The Energon Saber repaints). That Fashion Square Target still had 2 of each of the BW 2 wave.

Ughh....

I haven't seen crap lately -  redface2tf.gif

Oldsmar Walmart has one Excellion and SD Hotshot left,... and the Clearwater TRU two SD Hotshot's and a few Downshifts left.

Rollbar's and that other WRX are pretty much everywhere here.

I just picked up H.B.S. 02 at Japan HQ/Kitty & Friends at the Fashion Square Mall in Orlando! Got the last one I'm afraid. Wooo Hoooo! g1-bumblebeedance.gif

Otherwise, the normal stores I've been to in the last couple of days had nothing worth mentioning.

Cheers

DAMN.  I was goign back this weekend to pick that up! thumbsdown.gif

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Tholmes6
Oops, it is called T.H.S. 02. Sorry onesock, but I did call the owner to let him know that they are doing a second production run. He said he would try to order a case.

I'll post later if I find anything during my scavenging session today.
Tholmes6
The Target next to Fashion Square Mall has a few new things, they are;

Exillon x 2
Override GTS x 1
SD Hotshot x 1
Downshift x 2

The back of both the Exllion & GTS packages have a picture of Soundwave on one & Wing Saber on the other. I can't wait to find those!

Cheers

Thanks man! I'll be sure to check it out! thumbsup1.gif
Tholmes6
There is 1 x Lugnutz at the Fashion Square TRU, I saw it aroung 2:30, no Scrapmetal though.

On the other hand, I know it's not a sighting but I just got the Reissue Purple Galvatron and I have to say that he is one of the best TF's I have purchased in a long time. He yells at you in Japanese as his eyes flash red! I am also expecting reissue Blaster to arrive today, I can't wait!

Anyway, I am still on the hunt daily but there hasn't been much action around here for a couple weeks. I will keep you all updated.

My cousin just called me and said he picked up Cybertron Skyshadow from the Walmart on the corner of Sandlake Rd. & John Young Parkway. I asked him if he saw Wingsaber but he said he didn't really look that hard. He just checks for me when he's looking for new Marvel Legends figures.

Wow, seems like I'm one of the only ones posting lately, must be peg warming time.

Cheers
Tholmes6
Ok, I went to a ton of stores again today, didn't see much. The Target on 434 & 436 had 1 x Scrapmetal & 3 x Lugnutz. They also had the 2nd wave of BW figs and have finally put out the end cap of Universe 2-packs and Deluxe 2-packs w/ Minicons.

The KB in the Altamonte Mall has about 40 Reissue Sideswipes for anyone who still needs one.

The TRU across from the Altamonte Mall has put out a NEW TF bubble display that has Galvatron, SD Scattorshot, SD Hot Shot and 2 Scrapmetal figs. They did not however have SD Scattorshot or and Scrapmetals for sale! They also had a few Lugnutz, I'm seeing him very often and will stop posting about him as of now.

Happy Hunting!

Cheers beerchug1.gif

Tholmes6
I haven't seen Alt. Prime or BW Megatron/Prime anywhere around here (Orlando), and I check about 10-12 different stores per week.

No new TF's this week, I hope someone else has good luck!
Tholmes6

1 x Skywarp
1 x Cannonball (I picked this one up)
1 x Override GTS

I'm broke and couldn't get any of the above,  icon_sad.gif
russmeyer

speedcake
Glad I could help.  I'll eventually add them to my collection, just have other priorities at the moment.    Sucks, but eh.
Tholmes6
I just found Soundwave! At the TRU next to Fashion Square Mall. I bought one, and there is one left as of 12:15p.m. Today. They also had 1 x SD Scattorshot and 1 x Dark Crumplezone.

Went by there today as well, but did not see Dark Crumplezone. Saw a couple of Shortround and the others were all still there. Target also put the Universe stuff on clearance, down to 12 bucks now.

and Wal Mart across the street has 1 cannonball.  I'm still not sure why I didn't pick him up. I'm not THAT broke.  biggrintf.gif
Devil Mazinkaiser
Did you guys see Alt. Prime yet?

Picked him up Saturday in the Vero Target - he is out!
speedcake
Not hide nor hair of him so far. 


I forgot that Target on N. Dale Mabry also had Sky Shadow (x1)


And I wanna say Walmart across the street had several Cybertron Defense Scattorshot, but that might have been Target as well. Pretty sure it was walmart though.
Tholmes6
Yesterday, the Target on 17-92 close to 436 had:

1 x Shortround
1 x Repugnus

They also had their Universe 2-packs on sale for $11.88 each.

Cheers.
Beast of the East
I finally found dinbot and trantules for the beast wars 10th clap.gif
at target in semonil not sure of were exctly
russmeyer
I was cheap and never picked up a LeoBreaker. Now I am jonesing for him. Has anyone seen one in the Tampa area?
speedcake
not lately. If I see one I'll post it up.  Shelves have been kind of bare all over lately really.
Tholmes6
Try looking at or calling a Target for a Leobreaker, I see many of them on clearence around here (orlando) for $11.88, like the Universe 2-packs and you will get 2 bonus mini-cons. I just got an EVAC this way.

Good luck!
russmeyer
I will give it a shot. Seems like they don't like checking the stock for collectors when I call in to stores instead of wasting gas in the SUV *sigh*.
Devil Mazinkaiser
When I found Alt. Prime at Target last weekend, I wanted the stock guy to check on any more Wing Sabres for me in the stock room because I wanted one of those as well. (I used the scanner trick that says "yes" if more are located in the stock room)

He said to me - "all we have are what's on the shelves" - and when I said "bullBlot, the scanner says otherwise" he reluctantly went in the back and came out with a Wing Sabre.

In YO face, Target employee! 893Stone-thumb.gif  hammerhead.gif  mwahaha.gif

At least he didn't kick the box around before he gave it to you. optimuslaugh2.gif1

I have been checking Walmarts for Prime. I gotta check Target tonight or tommorow.
Devil Mazinkaiser
Yeah - we would have had issues if he pulled an "Ace Ventura" on the box.  bumblebeetounge.gif
ironnemesis
what scanner trick are you talking about?
Devil Mazinkaiser
let's see if I say this right...

Say you see an Alt Ricochet on the shelf, and nothing else there. Knowing that Alt. Prime comes in a new wave with Ricochet and Rollbar, you walk to the nearest end cap in Target that has a scanner which tells you the price of the item.

On screen - it says "item in stockroom" with a yes or no afterwards.

If it says yes, there are more of the same type in the back, and possibly the Alt. Prime - just hasn't been stocked yet.

This generally works by size, Ultra, leader, voyager, basic, alternators.. etc.
ironnemesis
nice moves i'll be doing that tommorow. thanks
