    Lehighton Walmart has a lot of Chromedome, and the other wave 2 deluxes. And Alpha Trions and Astrotrains.

    When I went to Montgomeryville Toys R Us today none of the Wave 3 Titans return where they are anymore but I grabbed a Bisk. I like him a lot they also had Starscream and Ratchet for the new robots in Disguise series along with a scorponok. The ratchet looks like a really good version of the character.

    Ratchet was the only NuRiD figure I've really been tempted by, as he does look pretty good.
    The Prime version beats it thoroughly, though, so I'll stick with that one.

    Shippensburg Walmart has nothing new. The place was pretty packed, and since I'm caught up until Sixshot hits my PoL, I didn't look too hard.

    I'm on the lookout for Scourge and Hot Rod in the Beaver County area if people happen to see them. I had my chance at Scourge a few times but didn't get him when I could. Went to the Chippewa Walmart tonight because they had a restock there a few nights back just to see it wiped out completely...

    Had many adventures yesterday, including the Target in Robinson, the Target in Ross Township, the TJ Maxx and Marshalls in Robinson, and the Wal-Mart in Carnegie. The discount stores were a bust - a few voyagers at one, literally nothing at the other. Nothing beyond wave 2 spotted. Hardhead, Chromedome, and Highbrow came home with me from Wal-Mart, but I'm not allowed to open CD & HB until Xmas - so says my fiancee. And what she says goes! :D

    Might wanna check that TRU last night they had a couple boxed of Wave 3 Titans return deluxe. Might even get a price match for $9.88 because of Walmart

    I tried price matching on hot rod & triggerhappy the other night.
    TRU couldn't find either character listed for walmart.
    They couldn't or wouldn't match wally's 9.98.
    Hope you have better luck.

    I would have liked the price-match, but honestly, I have no issue paying $16 for these figures. Triggerhappy especially. Damn thing's GOLDEN!

    Shippensburg Walmart has about three cases of wave 2 on the pegs, five Galvatrons and one NuRiD Ratchet.

    Also, there was a huge accident at the Target exit off of 81. Two tractor trailers (one was a Target one). The highway's been blocked since about 3:20.

    Depends who you get. this the Robinson TRU? If so Brian would match. I'd take your receipt back and ask for George or Brian.

    Erie TRU has a ton of wave 3 Deluxes, wave 2 Legends, and a bunch (lost count) of Ratchet and Bisk from RID. Good grief, they're overloading the pegs and shelves. Oh and three Fort Maxes.

    Are they back to the regular price or still around $10?

    Edit: Never mind I'm thinking about deluxes not those little things.

    Besides I have like 30 MicroMasters and Minibot/Cons stored away that I can populate my Citibots (Metroplex and Ft Maxx) with if the desired comes along.

    dang wave 3 is already in the area? Kind wishing now i put hot rod on my christmas list; eh, i'm not in a rush TR's doign great things so far but outside of Blurr and Hardhead it's not wow'd me. I do have triggerhappy en route to me though from overseas as a present to myself for 1 year at my job.

    An actual sighitng (have been busy and havent ben able to get to the boards until today) :

    As of thursday North huntingdon Target (stopped there after a client as I needed a couple things) had all the wave 2 deluxes and 1 each of Astrotrain and Alpha Trion. I'm intrigued by Astrotrain, but Alpha Trion came home with me. I have the same horn issue a couple other people had, but i just hold th chest button down when locking them. Overall, he's pretty decent, just not as great as i think he could have been. That third mode really gets in the way.
