    Has anyone seen TR voyager Octane and Blitzwing in mission viejo, aliso viejo OC area? Been keeping an eye out for them. I might just preorder them on BBTS.

    I know that the Target on Alicia Pkwy in Mission Viejo had an Octane for awhile, not sure if he's still there though. Blitzwing is probably long gone though :/

    On my second hunt, I found 2 TLK Leader Megatrons at Target Curtner Avenue which is San Jose East Target, I think. Also found 2 Kroks, 2-3 Kups, and 1 Perceptor. I wanted Quake though :( 

    In other news, I found nothing new at TRU Curtner. I found TR Megatron again... 2.

    Dear Hasbro, what're you trying to tell me?

    Not sure how far you're willing to drive, but I got my blitzwing at the target near round one in Santa Ana a couple months ago.

    Hi Gallade there was a Quake at the Rancho santa margarita target this morning. I live right up the street from it, was doing some toy surfing this morning and saw him. They also had a couple Kroks, a single Voyager titans return megatron, one last knight leader Megatron, and a few other figures that are common like top spin. What is really annoying is how plentiful and common is TR voyager Broadside. That figure looks so unappealing to me, and it really feels like Hasbro is saying "Hey guys, you like Broadside right? You will buy him right!?" and I am like NOoooooooo not in a million astro cycles will I buy him thank you very much.

    To make things worse, Broadside will be coming out again for the holidays to keep the shelves warm.

    Has anybody seen Seaspray in the Sacramento area? By the time I got over to wherever he was spotted he was gone. Wondering if I just missed out on him since all I see are Brawls, Roadburn and the occasional Kickback or Bumblebee.

    Thanks to both of you guys. But unfortunately, I can't drive either. I rely on my parents or my one friend. :(

    Just left Roseville TRU. Lots of Perceptor, Wave 3 Deluxes, one or two Kup. 2 Prime and 2 Megatron Voyagers (wave 3) and one Sky Shadow (picked one up for me). Also 2 MP-10s behind the customer counter.

    Who's bright idea was it to advertize Hot Rod as a walmart exclusive, then not release him until far after the displays have been taken down, if at all? Whoever's in charge of US distribution needs to step up.

    Not just Hot Rod. They are going to release things several months after the movie exits the theaters. It's funny because every other summer film has all of the stuff out several weeks before film release.

    Who knows when Cogman is going to come out. Probably in time for Christmas when the stores are focused on star wars

    Hot rod, cogman, crosshairs, I'm still hoping wave 2 will eventually show up in SD cause id still like steelbane if I can manage it, and I'm still on the fence about the new wave 3 bumblebee. That's about it as far as movie deluxes I'm after. But alas. It will probably be ages before any store in my area gets through enough slashes and barricades before any of those show up.

    I'd be on the lookout for around when the movie comes out on Blu-Ray (September sometime I think?), and the film gets its second and probably final boost of interest before it disappears into film oblivion.
