    Which Deluxes? I'm wondering if they had a restock.

    Manchester Walmart had the Studio Series Deluxes and one Blackout. Voyagers and store system showed they had them in stock... somewhere. But the stockpersons didn't seem to give to craps in helping find them.

    It's a crapshoot when it comes to finding helpful retail emploeyee. I've had some that were very helpful in finding things in the back and others who take the "everything" is on the shelf work ethic. That's despite them looking up the SKU and seeing a large quantity in the back.

    I have run into this particular stockperson before. He clearly just wants to stock the shelves and go home. Zero assistance.

    Both Wal-Marts in Norwalk restocked POTP wave one :mad:  I found a picked over wave two a month ago there. Now it looks like I won’t have to check for a while as I see these sitting. I hate it when they do this. Wave two would fly off the shelves now these will be here forever.

    That happened to the stores near me too. A full restock of Wave 1. I was on vacation last week in NY and I found Sludge and Blackwing. Just need Moonracer now to finish this wave.

    Luckily I already found Hungrr and Rippersnapper last month but I still need Slag and Sludge to complete the Dinobots. I haven’t seen the Wave two Prime masters either. All I want out of this line is to complete Abominus, and get Outback and all the Prime Masters.

    Westfarms Target has the full roster of Studio Series (or did; I grabbed the Blackout). Everything else was still there circa 2pm. They also had a fair number of newish Marvel Legends and the Star Wars Dewback, for folks who’re into those lines.

    Blackout’s a pretty solid figure. A bit fiddly in alt mode, a bit hollow here and there, a bit small compared to Leaders of yesteryear, and the lack of wrist swivels bugs me more than I’d have thought. Gripes aside, he’s definitely got prescense. Snag him when you see him.

    Orange Target has Studio Leaders Grimlock and Blackout. Both look good I guess. I really hate Bayverse, and these look Bay-er than any previous Bay, so I suppose they're really neat decos
