[SndWve2002]

K-mart on Broad St. had Obsidian/Tankor
Wal-Mart off of I-40 has both Nemesis Prime and Powerlink Demolisher

[SndWve2002]

Found!!!...Universe Inferno and Ratchet at Winston Salem Wal-mart off of Hanes mall Blvd.
I think there was a Rachet left whe i got mine

[SndWve2002]

K-mart on LEwisville-Clemmons had one repaint sea team and a few jetfire/prime tow-packs....still looking for any Energon and the emergency repaints

[wscato]

100+ Yellow Landfills at the Super Walmart in Concord for $15

[SndWve2002]

same with the Walmart on Hanes Mall Blvd and University in Winston Salem

[wscato]

I got Nemesis Prime and Power Linx HotShot from KayBee Toys in Statesville at the Mall. I paid 11.99 for each but at least I got them. I haven't seen another Nemesis Prime anywhere. Anyone find any Energon here yet?

[SndWve2002]

still a big NADA on the energon front.....occupying myself with the Starwars minisets till then

[wscato]

Found and bought Energon Prime today at Walmart in Kannapolis off of I-85 exit 60. They had one left. Also they had 2 Treadbolts and and no Ironhides.

[SndWve2002]

Walmart in Elkin NC has 2 treadbolts, one more ironhide and 2 Primes.....i got a ironhide finally

[Arkayanon]

Haven't seen it, but I have it in good confidence that the Walmart in Sylva has Ironhide, Treadbolts and Landfill, much like every other one in the state, but I dont' see too many western locations. Any news from Raleigh (preferably north)?

[SndWve2002]

Toys R us in Winston Salem...has the E saber, Strongarm, and B ravage...and about 8 E. Primes

[wscato]

Big Energon Haul Today.......

Toys R Us at Concord Mills had Energon Prime

Toys R US on Indepenence Blvd. had Energon Prime, Treadbolt, and Ironhide. I picked up an Iron Hide.

Walmart on Eastway had all of Wave 1 and 1.5 in the store.

[SndWve2002]

man last 2 days were the best ever....Walmart on Hanes Mall Blvd...they have a whoel stand up near the fromt of the store...I got Hotshot, Inferno, and Skyblast...still fighting the urge to buy optimus...

[SndWve2002]

Starscream found in Winston Salem Toys R Us...I picked up mine and there were 3 left...nothing else new other than a restock of the ones they had before

Reissue wise...Smokescreen and Hoist...in rather decent quantities...although the weird thing is I never saw a Tracks there

[wscato]

Anyone found G1 Grapple re-issue yet????? Still no Energon Starscream around here yet.

[SndWve2002]

Grapple was in W-S Toys R Us I believe...I know for certain he's in the ones in Raleigh

[Thundercracker]

Found the following at High Point Rd. TRU in Greensboro, NC:

G1 Grapple
G1 Smokescreen
G1 Tracks
G1 Hoist
G1 Skywarp
G1 Red Alert

[wscato]

Found an bought today at Charlotte Toys R Us on Independence Blvd.

G1 Grapple
Energon Starscream
Energon Jetfire
10" Justice League Wonder Woman ( 1 left)

[DeathscytheFish]

I'd sure like to know if anybody's found any Alternator Smokescreen's in NC... because it seems every Target in NC doesn't give a rat's ass about Toys in general and get everything 3 months after it's been out everywhere else

[wscato]

I found the motherload tonight at Target in Huntersville (I-77 Exit 25).

I purchased a Scorponok there tonight. Still three left.

They had every single Energon figure except Optimus Prime, They had all the universe figures including depth charge, They had almost all of the Armada figures and they had Alternator Smokescreen.

I now have all the Energon figures available so far. Did anyone ever see any Nemesis Primes???? I only found one and haven't seen anymore since.

[Ruination04]

Saw Energon Tidal Wave at Target on Hwy 51 & 74 in Charlotte today.

[SndWve2002]

Energon Scorpionok, Jetfire and Tidalwave at WS target...also Smokescreen.....that was Friday.....by sunday they had one more smokescreen

[Thundercracker]

Found Energon Scorponok and Tital Wave at Lawndale Target in Greensboro.

[wscato]

Check your local Targets. The ones around here have Armada stuff on clearance.

[neocon]

The Wal-Mart in Clayton, NC has Alternator Smokescreen (on the collectible car aisle) and Energon Unicron along w/ most of the other Energon stuff.

[wscato]

Found the G1 Spychanger repaints last night at KB Toys in Concord Mills.

[DeathscytheFish]

Wal-Mart on brickford in Greensboro has Energon Starscream, Unicron, Hot Rod, and Inferno for sale... as well as Alternator Smokescreen

I have yet to see any signs of Scorponok anywhere though, which seriously peevs me off

[Thundercracker]

Target on Lawndale has had Scorponok for a couple of weeks now. I saw two there on Monday. Walmart on Battleground had every Energon fig tonight except Scorponok.

[wscato]

Anyone seen any Alternators in Toys R Us yet???

[Thundercracker]

2 Energon Unicrons spotted at Bridford Walmart on 12-31-03.

[Thundercracker]

nope, nobody around here has had Ultra Magnus as of yet that i've seen...

[Ruination04]

I saw one Scorponok at the Wal-Mart on on Hwy. 74 in Wadesboro. For those who haven't got it yet.

Two of them in Monroe's Wal-Mart on Hwy. 74 yesterday.

[Ruination04]

Kmart in Monroe on Hwy 74:

One Armada Jetfire/Prime 2-pack.
2 Alt. Smokescreens
2 Universe Depthcharge
2 or 3 E. Starscreams
1 Tankor/Obsidian
Lots of Energon Battle Ravage, Sky Blast, & Strong Arms.
Several role play Dark Sabers & Star Sabers.

[wscato]

Anyone seen Alt. Sideswipe here yet?

[Ruination04]

Haven't seen him yet, but it sure isn't for lack of trying! :lol

edit:
Whoever runs the toy section in the Hickory Wal-Mart needs their ass beat! It was in shambles and I couldn't find a damn thing! I finally see some Armada figures and a few Energon's. I search long and hard and find ONE giftpack of Landfill but everything was broken! It was the worst store I've ever been in!! Stay clear of Hickory Wally-World, unless you want to search for a long time!!

[Ruination04]

Anyone seen RiD Jhiaxus lately?

[circuitspore]

[circuitspore]

have you been to the walmart in Wilkesboro? i was amazed at the sheer volume of toys they have there for such a podunk town. i got 3 or 4 air military minicon sets from there when i couldn't find a single set in boone, cary, greensboro or fayetteville. haven't been there recently enough to know if they have any alt. sideswipe, though.

[Ruination04]

Haven't been there. I hear that the WM in Mooresville is/was the largest WM in the country. Never been there though. How much were the minicon teams?

[circuitspore]

when i went to wilkesboro they were full price, however yesterday my local WM had 1 air military and 3 emergency plus a few others for $4 a pop.

[Thundercracker]

I'd like to see a Walmart that is NOT in shambles...that store sucks!

[Ruination04]

As of last night, My WM was in tip top shape. They've been doing inventory I think, and have moved stuff around. All of the TFs were well organized. They were out of Alternators, All they really had was Inferno, Strongarm, Battle Ravage, Skyblast, Ironhide, and the Energon Saber. They had Optimus Primal from Universe. The selection sucked.....They also have alot of Armada minicon bonus 2-packs for $9.95 and a crapload of the yellow Landfills are still $15.

[SndWve2002]

ok....went to Target, Walmart and TRU in Winston.....nothing new
Target and Walmart near Concord....nothing new
Walmart and Kmart in Statesville.....noting new
they all have Wave 1 energon and most has some Alts and correctly packages Enercrons

dang it ...someone find some wave 2

[wscato]

Optimus Maixmus, which Walmart do you go to???? I usually go to the one in Mooresville or Concord, but have found most of my stuff lately at the one on Harris Blvd. The WM in Mooresville has sucked ass lately due to the fact they haven't had any Transformers the last few trips. The Target in Hutnersville sucks too.

[Ruination04]

I normally go to the one in Monroe. If I go to my dad's house I go to the ones in Taylorsville & Hickory. I might go to the one in Wadesboro occasionally.

[SndWve2002]

ok....SideSwipe in WS walmart.....there were two when i checked the first time so I hid one so i could pick him up when i got off of work. I'm glad I did...the other one was gone after work ...But I finally got him

[DeathscytheFish]

Don't bother going to the Wal-Mart on bridford for anything, they are doing a total store remodel, only real thing they had were Energon Unicrons... that's it

Target on bridford in greensboro still has the wave 1 basic stuff and several smokescreens... no signs of sideswipe or anything more as of yet

[raltherr]

I live right down the street from the Target in Huntersville. It salmost pointless to look for anything new there. By the time they get anything new, I have already found it somewhere else!

[SndWve2002]

for those near or in Winston Salem...foud the other Sideswipe in the WS wal-Mart...he is hidden behind a backpack next to the group of "landfills" on the sale isle....post if someone picks it up

[wscato]

Hey Raltherr I live in Huntersville also.

[Ruination04]

Anyone seen Uni. Skywarp, 20th Ann. Prime or Alt. Sideswipe yet?!?!?!?!

Hopefully aound the Charlotte area?!

[Ruination04]

Finally the Monroe WM on Hwy. 74 (Roosevelt Blvd) had two Alt. Sideswipes......Only have one now!! Tee hee hee..

EDIT: They no longer have Sideswipe.....:(

[SndWve2002]

ok...this is unfounded being that i havent gone and checked yet....but....
I went to the WS Target with the 20th Ann. Optimus DCPI#
they said that they didn't have him, but that the Target on LAwndale in GSO did...Tomorrow i go to see if the "Holy Grail" is actually there.

[Ruination04]

What is GSO???? That's baffling me....

[Thundercracker]

GSO is Greensboro. That Target is on my way home from work. I'll check it out and post if I see anything.

[Thundercracker]

Target on Lawndale had neither 20th Prime or Alt. Sideswipe as of 3:30 on tuesday.

[SndWve2002]

yeah I was abou to tpost the same thing....was in the area and to pick up some STOMP tickets...anybody seen Wve 2 anyehere yet?

[Ruination04]

Monroe WM had hardly any TF's! They had alot of Armadacrons, some with Minicons bonus pack. They had a few Enercrons too.
No signs of anyrhing new.

Kmart right down the road had 1 Alt. Smokey and and the usual Omnicons.

[SndWve2002]

Target on Hanes Mall Blvs in Winston has 2 Sideswipes as of 8am this morning

[Ruination04]

Wal-Mart in Monroe has one more Alt. Sideswipe if you haven't found him yet.

[wscato]

Finally picked up an Alt. Sideswipe today at the Target in Huntersville. They also had a few Wave 5 of the Marvel Legends figures if anyone is interested. Anyone find any Wave 2 Energon or 20th Anniversary Prime yet?

[Ruination04]

When is Wave 2 coming to the Charlotte area?!?!?!

[DeathscytheFish]

I sure wish whoever is deciding that Greensboro (wendover area) doesn't get CRAP will finally up and DIE... because the Target and Wal-Mart haven't had crap in ages... SSDD

not found one damned sideswipe or anything remotely close to "new"

[wscato]

When my wife was in college I always had luck at the new Target (not new anymore) on Lawndale besides that old Mill. I found all the new Armada stuff there way before it came to Charlotte. Another good place to look in Greensboro is ACME Comics on Lawndale. His stuff is a couple bucks more that target but he seems to get them before any of the stores. But I have to say Greensboro's Toys R Us sux compared to the one close to me.

The thing is... I live in Kernersville and work right off of the airport exit... so I never go over that way... have no clue where that is. Bridford is about the only place I ever get a chance to look during lunch break from work

[Thundercracker]

ACME Comics is where I got my Sideswipe.....They found it up in Virginia and got me one because I told them to be on the look out for me one about a month ago....You're right though. Greensboro is the always the last place on the planet to get the new stuff. And forget the Battleground Walmart. That place is like a third world country bazzar.

[SndWve2002]

ENERGON WAVE 2 FOUND :ROCK :ROCK
Winston Salem Hanes Mall Blvd got a small shipment of wv 2 today...I picked up Divebomb, Cruelock, Signal Flare and Landmine....one Divebomb left....so im expecting more to be coming in during the next few days. Deluxes must be next

[SndWve2002]

Once again Winston Salem comes through. 20TH Anniversary Prime at University Parkway Target. There were 2 only and I got one of them.....now who's gonna be the first to get there to get the second one :thumb: good luck to all

[DeathscytheFish]

20th Anniversary Prime found at the Target on Bridford in Greensboro, unfortunately I picked up the last one on the shelf... still no Energon Wave 2 though.

Oh, and the tin can spychangers are in mass stock there as well.

[Ruination04]

Big Kmart on Hwy 51 in Pineville (across from Carolina Place Mall) has ONE Landmine.


Wal-Mart at the Arboretum on Hwy 51 in Charlotte/Pineville has the Optimus Prime/Ultra Magnus Universe spychangers.

Still no sign of 20th Prime or any other W2 Energon figs.

[circuitspore]

GSO is Greensboro. That Target is on my way home from work. I'll check it out and post if I see anything.

that's funny. we've always referred to Greensboro as GBO.
:cool: :eek: ;)

Another good place to look in Greensboro is ACME Comics on Lawndale.

ACME comics is ubercool.

keep the Anny Prime updates coming!! i can't get off the mountain until later this month, but i'll be headed through winston and greensboro then and hoping to find a Prime. (unless my walmart gets a shipment in.... :rolleyes )

[Thundercracker]

20th Anniversery Prime spotted at Lawndale Target in Greensboro. 1 left.

[flywheels]

Ran across Energon Landmine, the new Universe Spychanger 2 packs at the Wal-Mart on HWY 49 in Charlotte yesterday. I also noticed that their shelf tag for Alternators was now $11! Had plenty of both Smokey and Sideswipe yesterday.

Still no wave 2 Energon or even the new 4" Valor vs. Venom figs.

[DeathscytheFish]

Landmine and Divebomb are both now at the Bridford Wal-Mart, found them today

[SndWve2002]

Wve2 Basics and at least one landmine on the top shelf at Hanes Mall Blvd Walmart....also Universe mini prime and magnus...there were some Triceradons there too earlier this week

[circuitspore]

found universe skywarp at the local wally-world. still can't decide whether i should get him or not, though.

[flywheels]

I would. Its a decent mold and a great character. So far I've been holding off on most of the Universe TFs...I'm still waiting for G2 molds to be used!

[Thundercracker]

Finally Alt. Sideswipe makes it to Greensboro. Found 2 at Target on Lawndale. 1 Left as of 2/18.

[SndWve2002]

Finally......Walmart in WS has a good selection of Wv 2 Basics
TRU in WS had both Wv2 Baiscs and Deluxes....also a good number of both Alt. Cars

[wscato]

20th Anv. Prime located at target in Huntersville. 2 left as of today at 9:00.

[flywheels]

Wal-Mart on HWY 49 @ I-485 in Charlotte finally has the Wave 2 basic Energon. TONS of Universe Depth Charge, a few Skywarp & Dinobot Triceradon. Only one more Smokescreen Alternator priced @ $11.00!

[wscato]

I made an awesome haul today. Spent way to much money and the wife is going to kill me, but here's what I got. I got everything below from the Super Walmart in Mooresville (exit 36 I-77) and they still had everything except I got the last 20th Annv Prime with the black gun. They still had him with the Grey one.

Rodimus
Landmine
Prowl
Cruelock
Divebomb
Snow Cat
Perceptor
Universe Ruination
20th Annv Prime w/ Black Gun

I also found another Marvel Legends Red Skull and I picked up a Silver Surfer.

[SndWve2002]

[flywheels]

How come Winston-Salem is getting all the new stuff first?!

[circuitspore]

How come Winston-Salem is getting all the new stuff first?!

[Ruination04]

Monroe Wal-Mart has at least 5 20th. Prime's left and had at least one E. Megatron. Lots of Energon & Universe stuff.

The Primes had the black guns.

[Ruination04]

Monroe WM still has EIGHT 20th Ann. Primes, at least 4 Ruinations.

U. Prowl Inferno Ratchet, Tankor & Obsidian, Depthcharge, Skywarp, etc.

Let the hunt begin!


How much $$$ was the Uni. Sunstorm??

[flywheels]

How much $$$ was the Uni. Sunstorm??

$19.96...kinda steep for a couple of repaints if you ask me. Might pick him up, but I'll probably hunt down Landmine first. Remy's gallery of Landmine is awesome!

[wscato]

I picked up Energon Megatron last night at Super Walmart in Mooresville. Last one.

[Ruination04]

Monroe WM...lots of Megatrons, Uni. Sunstorms.


If the gun color matters to anyone:
Wal-Mart in Monroe on 74 has 20th Prime with BLACK gun.
Target in Matthews on 51 has 20th Prime with GRAY gun.

[wscato]

I was at Super Walmart in Mooresville Friday night and ther had the Transformers features section setup where they normally have two toy lines featured, but it was all Transformers. Every figure up to date was present.

[Ruination04]

Anyone seen King Atlas yet???

[flywheels]

Most of the stores in Charlotte still have so many Universe Primals & Depth Charges that there isn't any room for King Atlas! :cry

Stopped by Wal-Mart yesterday to pick up Landmine since I've been reading about all of these sales...apparently they aren't Nationwide sales b/c he still rang up for full price. Oh well...still worth the purchase. They had a TON of Ruination giftsets too.

[Ruination04]

Yeah....I read Target is having a sale and Wal-Mart dropped there prices in response, but I've found nothing. It's all regular price here in the Monroe area.

[wscato]

Going to Super Walmart this wekend. I'll let everyone know if I spot anything new.

[Ruination04]

The Target on Hwy. 51 in Matthews IS having the sale on TF's. The prices aren't marked, but I bought Snow Cat for $7.89 when his original price was $9.99

Also, the TRU on Hwy 74 in Charlotte has Jetfire & Ironhide on sale for $14.99

[neocon]

Wal-Mart in Eden, NC has Universe deluxe SIDE BURN & PROWL.

[wscato]

I found King Atals tonight at Super Target in Mooresville. There are 3 left. Over at Super Walmart they had everything in the universe line and enrgon line that is available except King Atlas. I did find the new Justic League Darkseid tonight though!

[flywheels]

TRU in Pineville had about 6 of the G1 Reissue Dirge! Didn't know he was out yet.

Wal-Mart on HWY 49 in Charlotte had a few of the new Universe Skydive. Always did like that mold so I picked one up. Still no King Atlas.

[wscato]

I just got the last G1 Dirge at the TRU in Pineville. Thanks for the headsup Flywheels!!!!

[Ruination04]

I'm having a brain freeze...where is the WM on Hwy 49 in charlotte???? All I can think of is Hwy 51 Arboretum!! :stick

[flywheels]

HWY 49 is the same as S. Tryon. That Wal-Mart is in the Whitehall Shopping Center near the intersection of 49 and I-485...can't miss it. Its a huge area w/ a Lowe's, Bi-Lo and bunches of restaurants.

Ahh yeah!! I've only been there once! Thanks for the info!!

[Thundercracker]

TRU on High Point Rd. in Greensboro had reissue Dirge. Picked him up and got a free 6.99 Energon Signal Flare. They had 4 Dirge's left. No Rodimus Prime though...

[Ruination04]

Target on Hwy 51 in Matthews:

They're having the sale. I got:
SkyBlast for $4.99
Rodimus for $6.88
Jetfire for $13.88

They had Scorponok but he was $19.99
Also had Prime but didn't check the price.

[flywheels]

Those are some good sale prices @ Target. I'd pick up Treadbolt for that price if I could find him. Guess I'll swing out there later this week and finally pick up Ironhide...despite his Tonka Truck appearance.

Just can't bring myself to buy Ironhide!!

[circuitspore]

Just can't bring myself to buy Ironhide!!

same here.

on another note - the gastonia toys r us had, as of saturday morning, regular and powerlinx superpants prime for $20, and armada jetfire & galvatron for $15. i picked up their last two Cobra Infantry Six Packs as well.

any of you NC guys collect 'Joes as well?

[flywheels]

TRU in Pineville restocked Dirge and had plenty to go around. A few Rodimus Prime's as well. K-Mart in Pineville had several King Atlas' last night too. Bought him, opened him up late last night only to see in Sunday's paper this morning that all TFs are 20% off this week!

That K-Mart also actually had the TF Energon contest set-up. Like most stores that I've heard of, they too had the large Optimus cardboard stand-up out on the sales floor. Its already suffered some damage too. I've entered the contest about 50 times now so here's hoping that stand-up will be going home w/ me soon!

[neocon]

Wal-Mart in Eden, NC has one King Atlas left as of 5pm 4/4/04.

[Ruination04]

Thanks for the tip!! I got a Galvie today!!

[flywheels]

Thanks for the tip!! I got a Galvie today!!

Did they have any more Galvatrons? I originally passed on him, but for $15 that ain't a bad deal at all.

[Ruination04]

Had a friend pick mine up since she lives alot closer to me, so I really don't know. I will ask though!!

[Ruination04]

My friend said she thinks she got the last Galvatron! Of course she isn't a TF fan so there is a chance she could possibly be wrong. I haven't gotten mine yet either, so the TF she bought might not even be Galvatron!! LMAO Gawd I hope so though! I gave her a picture!

here's to hoping she got it right!! :thumb:

[Ruination04]

Monroe Wal-Mart on Hwy. 74 had ONE Arcee and One Insecticon.
They may have had more but I didn't see them. I bought Arcee, left Insecticon there. He looks better than the pix on the web. He doesn't have yellow legs, he has black/dark gray legs, maybe brown...I don't really remember exactly what color it is.

Arcee kicks ass. Very simple transformation with only 4 steps in the instructions. The chick has heels!!

fayetteville, nc kaybee toys had emergency team minicon repaints @ $5 a pack, and the toys r us there had powerlinx and regular superpants prime @ $20. fayetteville TRU also has several of the Cobra Infantry 6 packs for anyone interested.

Greensboro TRU - nothing new. Greensboro Target - had two Divebomb variants w/ the single blade. Greensboro KMart has Star Wars figs @ $2.50. They had a bunch of attack droids that somebody might be interested in army building for cheap.

And lastly, Walmart in Wilkesboro, NC has Arcee & Insecticon. As with Optimus Maximus, i grabbed an Arcee (two, actually), and left Insecticon.

Insecticon is pretty large compared to the other guys in his size class.

oh yeah, i scored a Defensor KO set for $5 in a clearanced Easter basket @ the Fayetteville KMart.

:thumb: I tried to find a Superion basket today for half off at Wal-Mart, but they were gone. :(

[flywheels]

I knew there was something else I went to K-Mart for yesterday! I remember seeing several Superion & Defensor KO's in the baskets regularly priced @ $7.99 before Easter. I'll have to check back later this week when I go back to pick up my Energon Prize Pack!

[Ruination04]

Wal-mart in Monroe has a THIRD TF section as of last Monday! It's the first aisle or so WAAAAAY at the end of the swmming pool section. They had a little section of basics. Must've been some overstock. I saw a few Arcee's & Insecticon's there.

[Ruination04]

KB Toys in the Monroe Mall on Hwy. 74 has G1 Spychangers. I got the entire set last night. They still have Silverstreak, Prowl, Wheeljack and Jazz.
Sorry I got the last Prime & Hoist! :ev:

[Ruination04]

Monroe Mall, EB Games... TF Armada PS2 game

Monroe Wal-Mart.... Energon Demolishor

Both on Hwy. 74

[neocon]

[Edit] Disregard (posted in wrong thread)

[flywheels]

Picked up my TF PS2 game w/ Strat. Guide yesterday @ the EB Games on S. Blvd. in Charlotte. Most EB & GameStop stores seem to have it in stock now.

Circuit City will have the game in this Sunday's sale paper advertised w/ a free Mad Catz PS2 controller. Not a bad deal if you had't already picked the game up.

[neocon]

Mt. Airy Wal-Mart might have one Universe SKYDIVE left, I didn't see one though. ( I got the one I did see)

[wscato]

Found Energon Demolisher and Universe SkyDive at Super Walmart in Mooresville. Super Target in Mooresville had the Universe Minicons in the Tin Boxes.

[flywheels]

Found 3 of Energon Demolishor @ the Wal-Mart on HWY 49 in Charlotte last night. 2 should still be hanging on the pegs there. No sign of any of their Universe exclusives being on clearance though...even though they had been restocked.

[wscato]

Found Demolisher and Arcee last night of all places. I found them at Kohl's. Look's like they got one new case of figures. Check your other Kohl's stores. That's where I lucked up and found Nemesis Prime last time.

[flywheels]

Where was the Kohl's you went to? I never would have thought to look there. How much were they?

Then again I found my Nemesis Prime & PL Demolishor over @ Sports Authority back around X-Mas!

[wscato]

I went to the one in Huntersville, but the one in Pineville and on North Tryon at University has a Toy Section too. It's beside the kid's clothes. Arcee was marked 9.99 and Demolisher was 13.99 but they were on sale for 25% off. Plus my wife had a coupon for an extra 15% off your total purchase so it put them a few cents cheaper than Wal-mart. Kohl's always has a sale so you never pay full price for anyhting.

[flywheels]

Thanks for the heads up wscato!

[wscato]

Found Mirage at Super Walmart in Mooresville last night. They also had Universe Ruinatuion on clearance for $11.99. It looked like they also unpacked quite a few cases as well because I found 8 Arcee's last night. I bought 4 to stick up on ebay. Super Target in Moorseville has the 20th Anniversary Prime on clearance for $49.98.

[Ruination04]

Hmmm...I gotta check the scanner at my WM.

[flywheels]

Found several E Demolishor, a few E Arcee and TONS of Universe exclusives @ Wal-Mart in Rock Hill, SC. None of the Universe stuff was coming up on clearance at the scanners...yet.

I did manage to find Darkseid JL and Killer Croc figures...anyone wanna trade?

[Ruination04]

U. Ruination is still full price in Monroe....
Found one Mirage. Got him!

[flywheels]

Found 2 full sets of the G1 Spychangers @ the KB Outlet @ Myrtle Beach, SC & multiple sets of the new Micromaster Protectobots...nothing much else though. Armada Unicron was only $24.99 down there.

[circuitspore]

finally found E demonlisher @ the super walmart on briar creek pkwy in raleigh.

any of you guys from the cary/raleigh area? if so, which stores usually get stuff in first around here? i just moved to the area about a week ago. and don't worry, i only buy one of everything, so i won't be muscling in on your turf too much. :thumb:

[kissinggrimlock]

Has anyone seen Energon Demolisher in the Triad area?

[neocon]

Burlington, NC Kay Bee Outlet store has the exclusive MicroMaster Protectobots! (Maybe one set left)

[circuitspore]

Burlington, NC Kay Bee Outlet store has the exclusive MicroMaster Protectobots! (Maybe one set left)

they still had them as of 6pm today when i was there. Defensor was my favorite combiner as a kid, and i like the homage and all, but i couldn't bring myself to pay $24 + tax for that tiny thing.

[Ruination04]

Wal-Mart in Monroe on Hwy 74

Tiger Camo Ruination = $20
Universe Sunstorm = $15
Universe Prowl = $7
Minicon 6-packs = $7
Spychanger 2-packs = $3

[flywheels]

I stopped by Zales last night to pick up my engagment ring (woohoo!) and I swung by the KB next door before leaving. Nothing really exciting. Had multiples of the new Universe Protectobots for $3.99 a pop. Also had Energon Rodimus, Prowl and Demolishor for $12.99 each.

OTFCC can't come quick enough! I'm tired of this drought...need...new...TFs!

[circuitspore]

drought...need...new...TFs!

i hear ya. i couldn't stand it anymore and bought some Xevoz figs to settle my toy appetite. those things are pretty darn cool.

[Ruination04]

Anyone seen any new Alternators yet?
Any new Energon?

ANYTHING?! I'm going crazy!

[circuitspore]

nope. nada. nothing.

i've actually turned back to my other obsessive hobby, playing guitar and bass. a much, much more expensive hobby. my wallet's really gonna be hurting if hasbro doesn't pull me back into transformerland soon.

[Ruination04]

That's weird because I lost the desire to play guitar. I have a bass but never touch it. I pick up my acoustic once in a blue moon. My electric is locked away in it's case.

[DeathscytheFish]

The only new thing i've found is Alternator Silverstreak at the Kernersville Wal-Mart about a week ago. Other than that, nothing new, not even defensor at any KB's around here.

[circuitspore]

just dropping a note to let you guys know about this:

http://www.insidepitch.com/bycity/raleigh.htm

[SHOGUN]

Picked up Alternator Hound yesterday in Morehead City.

[Ruination04]

3 Alt. Silverstreaks found at Wal-Mart on Hwy. 74 in Monroe.
2 left... :ev:

Still no sign of Alt. Hound...

[circuitspore]

just got back from the beach. picked up Alt. Hound & Silverstreak in a little town called Wallace - about half way between Raleigh & Wilmington on I-40. They had one Silverstreak left, I got the last Hound. :ev:

and the TRU in Wilmington has 20 - you heard right - twenty G1 Ultra Magnus reissues.

[flywheels]

20 UM's?! They had to come across some old stock. I wouldn't mind having him just because...any fellow Trans Fans in the Wilmington area that would be willing to pick one up for me?

[Arkayanon]

Crystal Widow and Oil Slick two-packs at the Kmart on Six Forks in Raleigh (3 boxes after I left an hour before closing). The new Wal*mart in Wake Forest did have Shockblast and Cliffjumper, but my brother bought them this morning. He told me they also had some Mirages and Alt. Silverstreaks.

tell your brother he's a bastard for taking my shockblast!! :tongue:

Arkayanon, i just moved to the area a few months ago. Are there certain stores in the Raleigh area that seem to get the new stuff first?

[Thundercracker]

Target on Lawndale in Greensboro had a sections of Unicrons for 19.99 each. Hadn't seen him in a while at Target...

[flywheels]

I found (and bought) Tow-Line @ Kohl's in the Pineville today. They also had Demolishor.

Unrelated to TFs, they had 4 full pegs full of the new THE BATMAN figures. Didn't know those were out yet.

[flywheels]

I also found the new Transformers Go-Bots @ Target in Pineville. I found these before I found Tow-Line, so to put an end to the long dry spell of no new TFs, I broke down and bought the new 'evil' Go-Bot Preditron. Nice new head sculpts to both the robot and beast mode. Translucent plastic and paint app. made this cat look pretty bad. Worth the $7 bucks.

[circuitspore]

not exactly a sighting, but i picked up some fliers for some upcoming toy/hobby/doll/etc shows in NC:

Aug 21 Fayetteville @ Charlie Rose Expo Center, 200 tables
Sept 11-12 Raleigh, Scott Bldg @ Fair Grounds, 265 tables
Nov 20-21 Greensboro Coliseum Complex, 450 tables

[circuitspore]

the west end Target in Garner, NC has Omega Supreme on the shelves, and also have Armadacrons on sale for $14.

[wscato]

I was at the Pineville Target today and they didn't have squat. The only good thing I saw was they had Armada Unicron marked down to $14.99 from $19.99 in case someone hasn't got one yet. They had tons.

[wscato]

Made a good find today. Kohl's in Huntersville got in one case of the new figures. I got Towline, Downshift, and Offshoot. They still had an Arcee, Insecticon and another Towline. All the figures are on sale, but the sale price makes them the same price as Wal-mart. Check your local Kohls. I have always had good luck finding early release figures and hard to find figures.

[Ruination04]

Wal-Mart in Monroe has one Megatron Sword.
They still have one Alt. Silverstreak left also.

[Ruination04]

Oh yeah, and they had that Galaxy Defender Armada Megatron KO also. $7.77

[flywheels]

Target in Pineville had more of the Armada Unicrons for $14, nothing else new. Wal-Mart on HWY 49 in Charlotte had 2 each of the new Energon weapons (Prime's Nerf style gun & Megatron's sword).

Anyone in NC bought the $14 Unicron and exchanged it @ Wal-Mart for the Energon version? Wal-Mart on HWY 49 had several Energon Unicrons!

[Ruination04]

I actually thought about buying one and returning it to WM just to make a little profit from it. I decided not to though.

[circuitspore]

I actually thought about buying one and returning it to WM just to make a little profit from it. I decided not to though.

here was my scheme:

buy a $14 unicron @ target.
exchange it for an Enercron @ walmart.
take the Enercron back to target and exchange him for Omega Supreme. :ev:

but i'm too lazy to do all that, so i'll just live without Omega until the repaint comes out.

[Ruination04]

WM in Monroe now has the Optimus Prime roleplay gun as well as the Megatron sword...
At the time of my last post, their TF section was near empty. Now they are fully stocked again, but it's the same old stuff. No new figures except the Alt. Silverstreak.

I must've missed it yesterday. I went back this morning to get some paint, and lo and behold, they had Alt. Hound! He's all mine!! BWAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!

[flywheels]

Target off of Rea Rd. in Charlotte had 2 Omega Supremes left Wednesday night. Very nice toy, despite the hefty price tag. They too had a few $14 Armada Unicrons left. Still no Nemesis Prime yet though...

[neocon]

Winston-Salem, NC: both Wal-Mart locations had at least one OMEGA SUPREME in stock.

[Thundercracker]

Target on Lawndale in Greensboro had two Omega Supremes as of Friday night.

[flywheels]

Found Offshoot @ Target in Rock Hill, SC...just a few minutes south of Charlotte.

[SndWve2002]

Finally something new .....Kohls in Winston Salem
found Downshift, Offshoot, and repaint Strongarm

only ones left sorry fellas :wink:

[tomdom69]

i don't know if anybone here is a halo 2 fan but i figured i'd list this anyway.

i'm pretty sure there is going to be a van or car passing out halo 2 demos on

tuesday the 24th all over the country!!!


i have everything listed below how to find out where.....



I heard about the fake site that is listed on the bottom of the halo 2 trailer in theaters and..................

if you didn't hear about it, after the trailer, when the xbox logo comes up... on the bottom of the screen, under the logo it says www.xbox.com... but then it switches to ... www.ilovebees.com .... then back to ... www.xbox.com

the site is supposed to be hacked, and there is a timer counting down to tuesday august 24th also there is writing that says........

HALT - MODULE CORE HEMORRHAGE SYSTEM PERIL DISTRIBUTED REFLEX. STRONG INTRUSIVE INCLINATION. COUNTDOWN TO WIDE AWAKE AND PHYSICAL :

if you switch the letters around it says

INDEX THIS IRONCLAD PREDICTION : HALO TWO SINGLE PLAYER DEMO CD-ROM DISK INCURSION AT AUGUST TWENTY FOUR. EARTH WILL NEVER BE THE SAME."



i heard about all of this, so i decided to have a go at this site.

after about 1/2 hour of searching for clues i ended up on this page...


www.ilovebees.com/links.html


which has alot of GPS (global positioning system) coordinates on it.

check for one near you.

here is a site to get a location by using the GPS numbers...also MAKE SURE to put the - symbol in front of the second set of numbers.


http://www.mapquest.com/maps/latlong.adp



i knew that my area (milwaukee) was about 043 -088 ... so i looked for one around there. Sure enough i found one.

also directly underneath each coordinate there is a time.

the time for mine happens to be 15:35 PDT (Pacific Daylight Time)

to check the time difference go to www.ebay.com

their time is in PDT

so whatever is going to happen is going to start when the timer runs out

and at each location at that specific time....

I went to other forums on the subject... to see if i could find out anything else, but most of them are messing with the game.

but i did find out that there were originally different coordinates. so i looked up the original milwaukee coordinates... and it was 61st and north.

now i looked at a few GPS sites. and both of the milwaukee locations are in the middle of the street. So I'm guessing that there will be a van or something giving out something. Hopefully a playable demo

alot of people are thinking waaay tooo hard about this, but I figure if they are doing something they won't make it too teribly difficult to figure out, because then nobody would show up.

I think it's a safe bet something will happen at these locations at those times. so I'm leaving work at noon on tuesday, hopefully I'll see a bunch of people there also.

ok so i have a time and a place. I don't think there is anything else to figure, unless you want to play the ARG (alternate reality game)

[Ruination04]

Monroe Wally World had TWO Omega Supreme's and ONE Alt. Hound. They also had 3 or 4 Alt. Silverstreaks.
They are moving stuff around and getting ready for Christmas!

[Ruination04]

^^^^^^^^^^^ Only one Omega left!

[flywheels]

I found Universe Whirl & Magna Stampede & Stockade 2 pack @ Target off of Rea Rd. in Pineville. I believe they had 2 each.

[circuitspore]

all these sightings are from garner, south of raleigh:

Walmart: Universe deluxes discounted to $15 (they had Tankor/Obsidian and Depthcharge)

Kmart: Crystal Widow vs. Oil Slick

Target West: Universe Nemesis Prime

Target East: Universe Whirl and Magna Stampede/Stockade. also had the new Xevoz 2 packs.

[SndWve2002]

ok really random place for a sighting...but was well worth it

Roses off od Reynolda Rd in Winston Salem has Cliffjumper, Shockwave and Mirage....if anyone close its worth the drive...good luck

[circuitspore]

holy crap. you mean there are still Roses stores around!?!?

[Ruination04]

I think there is/was a Roses in Belmont. Haven't been there in a couple of years. It may be closed now...

[Thundercracker]

Found 2 Hounds 1 Deadend 1 Silverstreak at Walmart on Dale Earnhardt Blvd while passing through Kannapolis. There were none by the time I left, but at least they are showing up.

[flywheels]

Found Mirage @ Kohl's in Pineville. Now why can't the local Targets/Wal-Marts carry the newer Energon asst. like Kohl's does?!

[wscato]

I think the Rose's in Belmont is still there. That's where I've been getting my HOC at. It was still there 2 months ago. How come Charlotte, Huntersville, and Mooresville Targets and Walmarts aren't getting crap!!!! Seems like I have had more luck at the Kohls in Huntersville lately then anywhere else. I finally broke down and ordered Alt. Hound and Streak of Walmart.com I figured i would waste more than $7 in gas looking for them. Anyone found Shockblast????

[flywheels]

I think the Rose's in Belmont is still there.

Yeah, that Belmont is still there. Man, good memories @ that store. Thats where I bought several G1 TFs back in the 80's...thanks to my grandmother always taking me birthday shopping there.

I'm finding newer stuff @ Kohl's too over the likes of Wal-Mart & Target. I started picking up some GIJoe stuff again just to feed my toy needs while the TFs have been scarce!

[Ruination04]

Monroe Wal-Mart has:

Energon Hot Shot
Downshift
Towline
Prowl
Demolishor
Rodimus
Snow Cat
and maybe one or two more

All in The new red Powerlinx Packaging..........

20th Prime on clearance for $50
Sunstorm for $10
Tankor, Depth Charge, etc. for $15

[Ruination04]

Monroe WM also has Tiger Ruination for $15 and now Omega Supreme in the new red packaging.

Monroe Kmart has 2 sets of Oil Slick Vs. Crystal Widow. (Ugliest thing I've ever seen!)

[flywheels]

Finally found some new TF stuff @ the Wal-Mart on HWY 49 & I-485 in Charlotte. They had one Mirage, PLB packaging Omega Supreme (3 or so) and new Universe Fireflight & Nemesis Strika.

I didn't buy any of them (opted for a Tunnel Rat/Electric EEL GIJoe 2 pk instead), but Fireflight was tempting.

Speaking of Mirage, if anyone is interested in my MIB Mirage please let me know. This figure is cool, he just doesn't do much for me. In fact, I want to let all of my Superlink items go...Blast Arm, Aerial, Iron Tread & Shockwave.

[Ruination04]

Rebel Base comics & Toys corner of Providence Rd. & Sharon AMity in Charlotte NC:

They have an Energon Prowl Vs. Starscream 2-pack.

[wscato]

Hey OM, When did Rebel Base move???? Last time I was there they were still on Independence Blvd.

hey Flywheels, How much for shcokwave???

[Ruination04]

Hey OM, When did Rebel Base move???? Last time I was there they were still on Independence Blvd.


Not sure when they moved. It was this summer I believe, but don't hold me to it. I've only been to the new store twice! I wish they were still in their old store, it was a little closer for me! heeheehee

The new place is in a little shopping center and they have a sign that says comics and toys. No store name. You have to go downstairs and they share the downstairs area with a Great Clips. It's a nice store though. Better than the old one I think. But when you're looking for it, if you blink you will miss it!

[flywheels]

Found the Universe Crystal Widow vs. Oil Slick @ K-Mart off of HWY 51 in Pineville over the weekend. Had 4 or so. Not much else though...

[DeathscytheFish]

Found Alternators Hound and Dead End, as well as Energon Cliffjumper, Omega Supreme, and newly packaged omnicons at the Wal-Mart in Kernersville.

I happened to pick up one Hound, and the last Dead End, but there were 2-3 Hound's left.

[SndWve2002]

ok guys...last 2 days have been great...WS Target and Walmart on Hanes MAll Blvd have a new case of Deluxes and basics....get them while their hot...they also have the universe figs

[wscato]

I found and bought Sharticon last night in the new packaging. He looks cool.

Found the new KB exclusive Energon Cyclonus & Demolishor @ the KB in Carolina Place Mall in Pineville. Found Energon Slugslinger, Sharkticon, Doom-Lock, Command Ravage, Alt. Hound (x2), Alt. Dead End and Alt. Silverstreak at the Target up the road (S. Blvd.)

[circuitspore]

i actually spotted a couple bulkheads yesterday at my local target, but, as much as i like his alt mode, i can't bring myself to pay $27 for him. That's $10 extra for that garish brute mode thing. i'm hoping to be able to pick him up on sale or maybe loose from somebody on the boards.

[circuitspore]

oh yeah, almost forgot - i spotted Silverstreak on the I-440 beltline in Raleigh!! :lol somebody driving a silver toyota Prius had a SLVRSTRK liscence plate. pretty cool.

Not sure how far away WS is, but Monroe is about 30 minutes SE of Charlotte. Hope that helps! It's probably about 45 minutes to Concord.

[circuitspore]

west Target in Garner had Universe Cyberjets! Yay! I gots me some more cyberjets!

Monroe Wal-Mart (here I go again)

UNIVERSE: Cyberjets, Nemesis Striker, Swerve, Fireflight

I grabbed the Cyberjets. The rest is yours.....

[flywheels]

Wal-Mart in Charlotte off of HWY 49 @ I-485 had PLENTY of Wing Saber, Grimlock & Swoop, Beachcomber, Omega Sentinel and all of the other megas. Still no new basic sized combiners.

And for you GIJoe collectors out there, they also had 2 new comic 3 pks. The one w/ the all black Snake Eyes and the other set a/ Steeler, Gen. Flagg and the Cobra Officer.

3-4 Alt Hound , Meister , Tracks , Deadend , Silverstreak
8 Runiations $20 on sale
Bulkhead , Omega Supreme Landmine ( 2-6)

Wal-Mart in Sylva now has more ALternators, including more Tracks.
In energon, i have seen at least one of the following new wave twos- energon Ironhide, Beachcomber, Landquake, and even a Wingsaber (which i scooped right up. also tons of restocked energons- sharkticon, sludgeslinger, energon hotshot, doom-lock. In universe they still the the Magna Stapede combo (only one i've seen.) They also have some cyberjets in universe.

Wal-Mart in Sylva...
They had Wingsaber!? Man, I wish my brother and I had seen that when we were there. But he managed to get Meister from an overhead self and the Fireflight pack while I got the Cyberjets. If I wasn't so broke, I would probably have gotten Landquake.

Oh, btw, Ryus, if you're in the Sylva area, have you checked the Rose's recently. I haven't seen HoC in a while, but they have had some Energon, though a little more expensive than Wal-Mart. They did have Shockblast when W-M didn't.

Greensboro Kohl's has both battle in a box sets.

High Point Target has Universe AUTOBOT WHIRL. (No NEMESIS PRIME)

I could'nt believe my eyes Friday night when I found about 5 Nemesis Primes @ my local Target in Pineville. Even after all of the Black Friday shopping, there were plenty of NS to still go around. And he was only $16.99 too! I left them all there so if anyone is in the neighborhood and still in the market for one there you go!

[wscato]

I found A5 Stormjet and C1 and C2 at Super Target in Mooresville? Anyone see one of theose Energon Combiner pallets yet at a Walmart?

the KB Toys outlet in smithfield had Universe Constructicons (Micromasters) @ 20% off, so you could get the whole set for under $20. they also had the KB Exclusive Cyclonus & Demolisher, along with some Sixwing & Menasor KO's (the DAR-BOT versions). also had the Galaxy Defender armada megatron KO and another new bot that looked like Cosmos on steroids.
