I was in Port Charlotte today for work so I decided to check out the Target and Walmart on US 41 to see if they had anything new as these are about 45 minutes from my area. Luckily they're right across the street form each other.

Walmart was stocked. However, it was old stock. It was just surprising to see so much stuff on the shelves of a store. I haven't seen any shelves that stocked in quite a while. They had RED Primal, Starscream and Knockout. I picked up a Knockout. His head is laughably small for the rest of him by the way. They also had a school of Cybershark on the pegs and shelves. I picked one up as mine is missing the side fins and it's just cheaper to buy a new one than to buy the pieces. The only reissue I've picked up too. Both were on sale for $19 each. They had a Cyclonus' armada worth of Sweeps there...which should mean there were none now that I think about that but that's not how I meant that as there were a bunch of them. Some leaders were around as well like Starscream and Galvatron. I didn't look if anyone else were there as I don't need any leaders right now. The deluxes and corres were just same old stuff. Legacy wave and the Walmart exclusives for deluxe and that one core class SS wave nobody wants and an Iguanus or two. I picked up some Slim Jims as well since my area doesn't seem to have any, at least not the Target or Walmart I normally go to anyway..

Target was disappointing. They're still doing their toy clearance but the signage is under toys that aren't counted. They put a bunch of Lucario above the sale price for Greninja even though there were only Lucario available. They put sale prices under the new Dino Fury Megazords but it's not for them. None of the Gundam or Dragon Ball stuff was still on clearance if it ever was in this store as it didn't look like it. Not that they had a large selection anyway. It was less than half my normal store which is surprising for Port Charlotte as those stores are usually much better. For Transformers I found Buzzworthy toy colors Dinobot and Terrorsaur. I picked them up because I was there but they're not hard to find. They still had a bunch of Kup. And while I still want one, I'm not paying full price for it after having paid full price for the shitty SS86 version. Yeah I could just be one of those assholes and swap the figures but I don't feel like it. Still haven't found Cliffjumper. Not that I need a CJ but because I want one and then I'll use the Siege version as a custom red Bumblebee. But I can't do that if I can't find a Buzzworthy CJ. I just want one you fucking shitty scalper scumbags. The rest of the Transformers offering were very lackluster. The same shit as Walmart but a lot less of it. I did see a Wreck Gar though and it's full price so I put it back. Not a single Creatures Collide box set though. I didn't have the code for it on hand for someone to check the back, not that I couldn't have looked it up though. I just don't like doing things like that. I hate talking to people in real life which is surprising given my long winded comments but I just like to tell stories I guess as my fingers sometimes just go off on their own on a keyboard. So anyway I don't like talking to people so I hate asking employees to check the back just for some fucking toys. I don't think this set will be difficult to find though as it doesn't have Horribull or Squeezeplay in it.

Long story short: I did not find any at the one Walmart I checked today. Target didn't have any of the more interesting Buzzworthy sets either.

Ya, my Walmart is at least a full wave behind, short of the exclusives.  The Target's here usually get the new stuff a few weeks after people find it on the east coast of the USA.
