Not sure if anyone cares but Gordmans now has Heroes of Cybertron waves four and five in Bellevue. Maybe Omaha too.

Energon everywhere of course but then again, the same five people scouring the stores everyday have made sure I still have money.:annoyed Not sure if that is a good thing. Anyway, please post sightings.

I hope this thread is helping. Anyway, I made some rounds today and found quite a few things. Toys R Us on 76th and Dodge had the Armada Unicron in the Energon box. Nothing else spectacular. Target at 132nd and Maple have Energon Tidal Wave and two Energon Starscreams. Wal Mart, 84th and Giles, had Energon Unicrons ($40!!) and some Energon 'Screamers. Shopko in Bellevue had 7 Energon Starscreams and two Nemesis Primes. As for Alternators, I saw nothing but shelf tags. :(

All Toys R Us and Target locations now have Alternators Smokescreen in Omaha. Anyone spots a Sideswipe in Omaha/Bellevue or Council Bluffs, post it!

Found two Alternator Sideswipe's at Target in the Mall of the Bluffs. The Kay-Bee at said mall sucks. The best you are going to get on clearance are some Megabolts and Armada mini-cons.

Ten Masterpiece Primes (black gun) at Wal Mart in Bellevue as well as wave two Energon basics and deluxes and Universe Ruination. The new Wal Mart north of Fort St. has one MP Prime (black gun), Universe Sunstorms and Ruinations. Targets don't have poopoo. No Energon Megatrons yet. Have fun!

Super Wal Mart in Bellevue has five or six Energon Megatrons in stock.

OK, just a heads up. I spotted an Energon Ultra Magnus at the Wal Mart way out on 180th street. It's gone but there still might be more floating around. And here I thought the chances of one showing up on shelves now was highly unlikely.

Found an Alternators Silverstreak in the North Lincoln Super Wal-Mart about 10 days ago and a few Energon Demolishors as well. Still no sign whatsoever of Energon Insecticon, Arcee or Mirage. Also have not seen Universe King Atlas anywhere here. Have you spotted any of these in Omaha or Bellevue? The Toys R Us down here has a ton of the Universe limited Edition Ramjet left too.

Saw a variant Alternators Silverstreak (steering wheel on left side, bought the one with the wheel on the right side) in the Wal-Mart on 27th and Superior in Lincoln. Still no sight of Arcee or Insecticon or Mirage, but a couple of Demolishors are around.

Finally! Seems we are getting the rest of Wave 3 here now that Wave 4 is out everywhere else. Still no sign of Insecticon or Arcee anywhere in Lincoln, but I did finally find Energon Mirage at the Super Wal-Mart on 87th and Hwy 2. Also found a Transformers Universe King Atlas there and picked him up. Nothing else to note except I found another Universe King Atlas at the Target on 56th and Hwy 2. They need to restock their Energon there, they have 3 figures from Wave 1 out and that's it for nearly half a toy aisle. Let me know if you find any Insecticons or Arcees in Omaha or Bellevue.

07-19-2004, 07:36 PM
Well, still no sign of those darn Arcees or Insecticons, but that same Super Wal-Mart on 87th and Hwy 2 did yield a Cliffjumper, only saw one and I picked him up. Anything new in Omaha or Bellevue?

After what has seemed like forever, I finally found some Insecticons here. Found three at the Target on 48th and Vine, along with a repoainted StrongArm and repainted Signal Flare. No sign of Shockblast, any deluxes or any of those danged Arcees yet though. Found two sets of the new Energon Weapons, two of Prime's Energy Blaster and two fo Megatron's Sword at the Target on 56th and Hwy 2, but did not pick them up.

Found another Energon Blaster Prime Gun today and picked it up from The Super Wal-Mart on 27th and Superior. Also found two Omega Supremes on 48th and Vine Target and picked one up.

Cheers.

Awesome, after a seemingly endless wait I found two Energon Arcees (left one for some other lucky collector) at the Target on 56th and Hwy 2, had two Energon Swords, two Omega Supremes, one Offshoot and three Insecticons.

What a haul I had last night, the Super Wal-Mart on 87th and Hwy 2, I got an Energon Omega Supreme, which they had mispriced as clearance for $35.00, PLUS an Energon Shockblast and an Alternators Hound (they had 2), also had some Arcees and Insecticons, but no new deluxes.

Its in Lincoln, on Highway and 87th St, right next to Menards, I went back again yesterday and they had Cliffjumper and Mirage and some more Omegas. The Super Wal-Mart on 27th and Superior in Lincoln had Omega Supreme, 2 sets of each of the roleplay weapons, plus some Alternators Hounds last night as well.

Guess I don't know who you think is spamming, everybody here is posting different info on the very limited stores we have across Nebraska, but anyways. Went to the Target in Kearney on Friday, and found 4 Transformers Universe Nemesis Primes. Picked up one, but left the rest there. Nothing else of notice from the stores I've checked, but am making another round tonight so I'll post my findings (if anY) then.

09-06-2004, 02:51 PM
Also forgot, when i was in the Target in Kearney, it had 3 Omega Supremes in the Powerlinx Battles packaging, very cools looking. Found Transformers Universe Autobot Whirl in the Lincoln Super Wal-Mart on 27th and Superior, but that's it for now. Anybody else find anything?

optimuslives
09-14-2004, 09:21 PM
Wow, can't believe what I managed to find tonight. Checked out the Super Wal-Mart on 27th and Superior, nothing noticeable there other than a TON of Powerlinx Battles packaged Omnicons, quite a few Energon Strongarm and Offshoot. Target on 48th and Vine had nothing to speak of, the Target on 56th and Hwy 2 yielded 3 Omega Supremes in Powerlinx Battles packaging, but nothing else. Then..........got to the Super Wal-Mart on 87th and Hwy 2, found 2 Alternators Dead Ends (grabbed one), over a dozen Powerlinx Battles Omnicons, including Command Ravage (picked him up), and Doomlock (picked him up), but still no darned Tow-Lines or Downshifts anywhere.

optimuslives
09-15-2004, 08:51 PM
Well, went back out to the Super Wal-Mart on 87th and Hwy 2, no new Energon figures, but they did have 3 each of the TF: Universe figures Nemesis Strika and Fireflight with Firebot and Thunderwing, picked up one of each, still 2 left per figure there, anybody else finding anything, hopefully Tow-Line, Downshift or Bulkhead?

optimuslives
09-17-2004, 09:51 PM
Wow, just wow. I went hunting again tonight expecting nothing since I found something 2 of the last 3 nights, but boy was I wrong! While neither Wal-Mart yielded anything, the one Target I did check produced magnificently! Two cases of new Powerlinx Battles Packaging had been put on the shelves and I snagged 'em! I got Tow-Line and Downshift ('bout damn time!), Sharkticon (an awesome figure, one of my favorites in Energon right now), plus another Command Ravage and Doomlock, I"m heading out to check the other Target tomorrow, keeping my fingers crossed they'll be a Bulkhead there. Oh, the Wal-Mart on 87th and Hwy 2 did have 3 Alternators Hounds for anybody who doesn't have one, and another Mirage as well, anybody seen Bulkhead out there?

optimuslives
09-22-2004, 01:50 PM
Once again, Target on 56th and Hwy 2 is the place to be! Got Transformers Universe Magna Stampede AND Soundwave and Sjpace Case. Also.....................Energon Slugslinger! Still a ton of new Powerlinx toys the restocked on, not to mention ALL Alternators, Dead End, Hound, SilverStreak, SideSwipe and Smokescreen, I'll head back out today to see if there's anything else new, still haven't seen Bulkhead, but for once it seems like we are caught up with everybody else!

optimuslives
09-23-2004, 08:18 PM
Nothing major of note, saw one Transformers Universe Whirl at the Target on 56th and Hwy 2, nothing else out there today, anybody else noticing any new figs anywheres?

optimuslives

Saw Powerlinx Battles figures in Toys R Us on 27th and Superior amazingly, they never have anything in it seems like. Anywho, they had PLXB Dreadwind and Energon Ironhide, both look pretty nice, but I left them both for lack of $$$. Good luck to whomever grabs them!

Just wondering if anyone has seen anything in Nebraska. I know a lot of stores are kind of empty so maybe, just maybe we'll start to see some new items. Also, if you catch any series 6,7 or 8 Marvel Legends, post about them. That would be rad.

Fatbot
12-28-2004, 02:52 PM
Hey, its pretty empty right now besides the usual figures. I cant seem to find Energon Swoop and Grimlock for the life of me. I dont know what all youre looking for but TRUs have had some new Alternators, just yesterday i found Grimlock and Swindle at the Council Bluffs location. The other two in Omaha (do you make your way out there?) didnt really have much though. I dont collect Marvel Legends so im somewhat ignorant about who all are the new figures in what waves, but TRU on Dodge St. had a couple of Weapon Xs and Iron Mans, so that may be of interest to you. Other than that, nothing else stood out except for the mob of Silver Surfers, Gambit, and Elecktras that are all over.

We've had a wave of new toys here in Lincoln. Both Targets and Both Wal-Marts have the first 3 parts of the Combiners, for Both Superion Maximus and Construction Maximus (or whatever his name is), found Alternators Meister and Tracks a while back, but haven't seen anything new. Ricochet is finally in stock at the TRU here. Marvel Legends, an overabundance of Nick Fury, Gambit, Elektra, Beast and Wolverine. Haven't found any Movie Likeness Punishers which is what I'm after.

Fatbot
01-21-2005, 07:25 PM
The only new Transformers figure i seen this past week when i was out was the Energon figure Barricade, i believe he was named. He made up the torso of Bruticus. It was a nice looking figure, but i passed on him for now. Other than that its pretty dead, same old Alts sticking around. Ive seen a couple of Marvel Legends movie Punisher, so he shouldnt be too difficult to find whenever he hits Lincoln.

Fatbot
02-13-2005, 03:17 PM
On Friday at the TRU off of Dodge St. i seen one Energon Galvatron. I dont collect many Energon figures so i left him sitting on the shelf. No idea if hes still there...

Shai Hulud
10-19-2005, 09:09 AM
well, let's give this a shot again. i'm a little late with this but as of last friday, the TRU off of Dodge in Omaha had nothing new except Alternators. They are/were Prowl(1), Decepticharge(2) and Wheeljack(2). with the current BOGO promotion, not a bad deal to pick up all three at once! see you all later!

Anyone seen anything movie-wise in their respective areas? I was in Kearney, NE this weekend and they had nothing, Lincoln has tons of the Protoform figs, but nothing else

07-20-2007, 09:37 AM
Think I'm the only one that actually checks this, but if anyone's interested, both Targets in Lincoln have an abundance of the 2nd wave of Exclusive Scouts (Clocker, Strongarm, Skyblast) and have overstock on the first wave of scouts as well. Spotted a couple of Dreadwings there, but no deluxe Arcee's or 08 BB's unfortunately.

I just checked Walmart in Columbus, NE, and they had the cases of Animated toys, but they said they can't sell them yet. Hopefully they will put them out soon.

Was out running errands with my son, and spotted these. I bought Cybertron Mode Prime, Bumblebee, and Prowl. They also had Ratchet, Black Arachnia, and i think Lockdown. I have pictures of the three i bought plus the reciept once i get it on my comp.

They finally put out the Transformers Animated toys at Wal-Mart in Columbus, NE. They had Voyager Starscream, Bulkhead, and Megatron, Deluxe Lockdown, Blackarachnia, Ratchet, Cybertron mode Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and Prowl. They also had 1 each of Universe Sunstreaker and Universe Prowl. I had checked Saturday morning around 2 AM CDT, and there was just movie toys, so they must have put them out either yesterday or today.

I checked the Walmart on Nebraska 2 in Lincoln on my way into town. They had the standard Animated wave 1 and 2 deluxes (primarily BA and Ratchet, plus a few Lockdown), and all of wave 1 voyagers, no wave 2 to speak of.

Lincoln Target off Nebraska 2 had virtually nothing from Animated and a lot of movie figs.
