    Good question. Only places he's been found in NC has been in Targets. He's not an exclusive though, its just that the boxes coming in (or at least what we've figured out so far), has had 2 Wreck-Gars and 2 Atomic Lugnuts per box, and only one box per store. Same for the Roadbuster Ultra Magnus. Two per box, one box per Target store, no sightings in Walmarts.

    The Shadow Blade Megatrons however havent been seen in Targets, but in WalMarts. Really whacked stocking.

    Waspinator and Prowl should be seen in stores starting March....or at least that's what the original plan was.

    It's just like the other waves where all the grimlocks, blitzwing, skywarp, shockwaves staring showing up at Walmart months before Target and Target got the Snarl, Soundwave, Oil Slick, Jazz, Optimus Primes months before Walmart did.

    If Wreck-gar was a target only exclusive, it would have a big old Target sticker on the front of the box. Walmart is just slow about putting out new Animated Voyagers after Christmas. Just wait in a month he'll be clogging shelves every where.

    Well speaking only for my area. Xmas was so bad for toyrus that haven't ordered any restocks of any action figures so theres nothing new there. The walmarts around here have been seriously backlogged since that pallet program left them with tons of old voyagers. They simply have no reason to order new product.

    Maybe it is because every store seems to suck* with their inventory except Target.
