    Thought I would create a new thread for any new Colorado sightings in the near future since the other thread was getting lengthy.

    I stopped by Wal-Mart & Target here in Longmont today and found nothing but some wave 1 & 2 Supercons and Mini-Cons. No new wave 5 Mini-Cons or even Dinobots. :cry 

    Post your new sightings here or let us know if you don't find anything so we can all share in the pain and suffering. :cry

    Friday, 6/20: Loveland Super Wal-Mart

    I found a few Powerlink Optimus Primes at the Loveland Supercenter last night. They had a lot of Transformers (Waves 1-4) but Powerlink Prime was the only new one. $40, if you want him. I passed.

    Sat, 6/21: Longmont Wal-Mart=1 Powerlink Prime

    I stopped at the Wal-Mart here in Longmont today and saw 1 Powerlink Optimus Prime. Another Transformer collector (a kid around 12-13 maybe) was looking at it and mentioned it was the same toy just a different color. I mentioned that they were coming out with many recolors in the near future. I showed him the bottom of the box where there were some pictures of Unicron and Tidalwave. He said he thought he saw Tidalwave at a Target somewhere in the Denver area (Thorton, Westminster, etc.) but couldn't be 100% sure. He also said that there were some Dinobots left in the Brighton Wal-Mart. Might be worth a look if anyone is around there. I still have yet to find any Dinobots. :cry  Does anyone know when Tidalwave is suppose to be released? Happy hunting!

    KB Toys in Greeley Mall:

    - Rhinox
    - Terrorsaur
    - Bludgeon
    - Scourge

    I'm not big in to collecting the "powerlinx" stuff. And Prime is going to destroy my wallet if I do, so I may have to pass on him for the time being in favor of Tidal Wave, Overload, and Unicron, not to mention all those damned Mini-Cons, Wheeljack, and Skywarp.

    I went to Walmart today and found the new military minicons and the emergency minicons in Denver. I almost missed them since they were on an endcap and not with the rest of the tf stuff.

    Emergency Mini-Con team found!

    6/30: Longmont Wal-Mart

    Stopped by Wal-Mart here in Longmont today after work and found 1 pack of the Emergency Mini-Con team. They look pretty sweet. They only had 1 pack and they didn't have the Air Military Team. All the rest were old stuff except for 2 Powerlink Primes. I checked Target and had nothing new.

    No, my impatience! I already bought the Destructicons. Thanks for the info. If they have a Terrosaur I may have to pick one up. 20% of would make them around $10.40 plus tax. Not bad. I just wish the Dinobots would show up again.

    Universe in Longmont!

    7/3 - Longmont Wal-Mart

    Found the deluxe sized Universe figures (Silverbolt, Snarl, Reptilion) at the Longmont Wal-Mart, in the same area as Armada. I believe they were $10. I passed on these. I think I'll wait and see if they ever go discount than pick up a few. No new Armada, just the 3 Universe figures. Probably had at least 2-3 of each.

    Damn right, Kickback! Looks like Tidalwave, Hoist, and Wheeljack are making appearances across the great 48! Keep those eyes peeled and keep each of us informed with those new sightings!

    Checked Longmont Target today, nothing new. :cry

    Brave Series KO Found!

    Went to Ft. Collins today and looked around. Picked up the last reissue Jazz at TRU. They had them all, but alas too much $. There was nothing new at Target. Stopped in ShopKo and to my surprise I found this on the shelf:

    Brave Series Construction Team KO!

    It appears to be a Brave Series KO. They had 2 on the shelf so I picked one up for only $5! The quality is pretty good and Scooper even has rubber treads! It has 2 gestalt modes (one comprised of 3 bots, the other all 4). I am pleased with this KO! :thumb :

    Also stopped in Loveland and checked out Wal-Mart. They had tons of Armada figures but nothing new, not even the Powerlink Optimus or Universe figures.
