Found a few Galvatron figures at Target in the greater Houston, TX area. None had the fixed shoulder assembly. Be aware that the inventory count for Galvatron on the Target handheld scanner will also include the number of Kingdom Ultra Magnus.

The Headmasters wave 2 Walmart exclusives are starting to make their way to shelves in the greater Houston, TX area. I had to visit a couple of stores, but I got the entire wave 2 set. Happy hunting!

Found a SS86 Grimlock in the greater Houston, TX area today at Target. More importantly, the DCPI number (DPCI: 087-06-051) is currently not shared. This means you can have an employee look it up and see if there are any in stores nearby. That’s how I found mine. 😉 Good luck!

Found a few Studio Series 86 figures at my local Walmart in the Greater Houston, TX area. The deluxe figures are currently on sale for $18.84 (i.e. Jazz and Blurr). The voyager figures are still MSRP at $29.99 (i.e. Scourge and Hot Rod). I haven’t spotted Kup or Grimlock, but hopefully they show up soon.

If your Cyclonus is still on back order at Target.com, it looks like they are starting to show up on shelves at Targets in the Greater Houston area. Unfortunately, I don’t think the inventory listings are accurate for this item online, in-store, or using the employee inventory scanner. There are supposedly a few Cyclonus figures scattered around the Greater Houston area with the stores that do have it showing 2 or so on-hand. The store I visited supposedly had 7 on the floor which I found hard to believe. If they did, I picked up the last figure. I also noticed Kingdom Optimus Prime and Beast Megatron on the shelves as well. Not too sure why they labeled it “Megatron (Beast)” on the packaging. I guess they will have the transmetal and dragon versions later.

If you absolutely must have the Netflix Bumblebee and can’t find it in stores. You can buy it from Walmart.com directly from Walmart for $39.99 which is actually better than the $50 price listed before Christmas. Definitely not the best deal. 😢 http://www.walmart.com/ip/Transformers-Generations-War-for-Cybertron-Series-Inspired-Deluxe-Bumblebee/272294830

Shipments of Earthrise Thrust are making its way to Target stores in the greater Houston, TX area. They are marked as “TE” which I was told was a transition date. It is supposed to be on shelves by January 6th. However, you can still buy them since it’s not street dated. Unfortunately, there seems to be some confusion depending on the employees you talk to about if they are able to sell it or not probably due to most employees being new. I visited a couple of stores where the first said that they may be listed as available on the app but are not available for purchase. The second store said the same until another employee explained the difference between “TE” and street date. Luckily, the other employee was able to find the item in the stock room, and I was able to purchase Thrust without issue minus the malfunctioning self-checkout terminal. I also spotted Core Optimus Prime, Core Rattrap, Kingdom Optimus Prime, and Kingdom Cheetor. Sadly,I forgot to get pictures of all of them.

In my hunt for Netflix WFC Bumblebee, I stumbled across Walmart #602 in Greater North Houston who is probably trying to clear shelf space for the next wave of figures. Main line (i.e. not Netflix) figures are on clearance. Deluxe figures for $10 with voyager figures for $17. Not many deluxe figures left on the shelf, but there were a ton of Grapple and Starscream figures. Again, this does not include the Netflix figures.
