    Picked up one each of CD Hot Shot and Downshift at WalMart today. Thought that had me all caught up but I see that Lugnutz and Scrapmetal have been released.

    [sigh]... the hunt never ends.

    So I went to the Charlotte Comicon.....didn't find alot TF-wise. I found a guy who was selling back issues for original cover price, so I bought all the original TF comics that I didn't already have....filled in alot of holes in my collection. The toyshow next month at Metrolina expo should be better.......

    I could've told you there wouldn't be much TF wise there. I usually go to each Comicon that Dave puts on each year. You are right though about next month's Metrolina Expo show...it should be better as the focus is on toys versus comics.

    Target in Raleigh (Lumley Rd.) had Cybertron SCRAPMETAL, LUGNUTZ, DOWNSHIFT, & CYBERTRON DEFENCE HOT SHOT. I think I grabbed the only ones of each that they had.

    Target in Burlington has the endcap display with the Universe two-packs, deluxe two-packs and voyagers with bonus mini-cons. It looked untouched as of 9:00am. They also have one CD Hotshot and one downshift.

    Wal-mart in Burlington has one Alternator Ricochet and one Alternator Rollbar. They also have one Cybertron Lugnutz. I got the Scrapmetal. Also one CD Hotshot.

    Found a good few at the Fayetteville Target last Friday that I went home with:

    Universe ultra 2-packs and Scouts of Lugnutz and Scrapmetal. That was all I could afford...

    There were also the Cybertron special themed deluxe 2-packs, and the deluxes and voyagers with bonus mini-cons. I'll likely pick up the themed deluxes, but leave the others on my next trip.

    Picked up an Excellion and Override GTS, as well a a couple of the wave 3 mini-cons at WM. I only found Thrust vs Anti-Blaze and Sunstorm vs Checkpoint, but not Ramjet vs Scythe.

    I've also seen BW 10th Rattrap at Target, but no Dinobot or Tarantulas.

    Not seeing anything else new above deluxe size in Cybertron, nor Alternator Prime.

    Dang, I was just there and they didn't have squat! At least I came away w/ several new DTC GIJoe items though.

    I did find a Cybertron Scrapmetal though at the Pineville TRU & Target...left them both there.

    Wal-Mart (Hwy 49/S. Tryon @ I-485) had several CYB Override GT, Downshift, CD Hot Shot & Thunderblast yesterday morning.
