The Targets in my area stopped carrying them, as did at least one of the Walmarts. The rest of the Walmarts have the Swindle/WC/Ravage thing going on, with an odd Grimlock here and there. The TRUs have had nothing but Swindles for weeks.  The Kmart has had the same 4 Streaks on the shelf since January.

 

Once the Walmarts and TRUs finally get new stock, they'll prolly move pretty quickly, but there's a lot of clogging going on.  :bored

Yeah same with superstore used to be the meca  of alts, but now they dont restock so i have to resort to the internet or going down to bellingham.

Only two stores of originally seven still carry the line.

 

Walmart- Still has two Smokescreens (yes the blue guy) which have been there since January.  When they put out the case of Wheeljack and co, it sold out (minus Windcharger) in under two days.  Probably won't restock until they clear Windcharger and two damaged boxed Smokescreens.

 

Kmart- THREE SMOKESCREENS that have been there since February of 2004.

 

I'm going to just go ahead and get Grimlock and Tracks from BBTS's BT sale.

That's not really because of how Alternators are doing - a lot of lines have either been cut completely or scaled back for the summer - due to Star Wars. (Straight from Target's regional manager). Everything will go back to normal soon.

 

For the time being, Super Wal*Marts and Super Targets, for instance, should still carry Alternators, but the smaller stores may not.

steevey maximus, so in your area they go sum windchargers? would you be interested in picking one up for me and selling it to me?

It wasn't this difficult awhile back, but now that the star wars crap is warming the pegs, it seems like a lot of stores aren't quite up to restocking as much. I have yet to even SEE Shockblast, but I won't give up hope yet. The same can be said for Wheeljack, no sign of him either.

 

So either they're not restocking as well as I'd hope, or I'm competing with ninjas...

Whats the big deal with the star wars, ok maybe i can see that it should get a little publicity since the new movie, but i mean i saw the new figures and there pretty lame, almost like the orginals but dumb. ....IMO

Well in all honesty...the SW figures have gotten incredibly better designed and built over time. SW Collectors have been around longer than TF Collectors. SW always sales well, but whenever a new Movie pops up they sale extremely well, particularly the more popular characters like Vader, Chewie, Han, and such.

well i have to give credit to that line, i have no clue of the name, the one of chewie or wookies that have there hair blowing in wind, that line had some really good looking toys, but i still say the newest ones are lame... sorry.
