    Target on North May in OKC has PotP. Everything except Swoop and Rodimus, which I grabbed the last of.

    Found the wave 2 legend figures at a Walmart in BA. Been looking all over for the wave 2 deluxes but still haven't seen any trace of them in my area...

    I picked up a set of wave 2 legends about ten days ago at Quail Springs Walmart, but haven't seen a trace of them since. Wave 2 deluxes seem to be easier to find, no sign of wave 2 voyagers and who knows on wave 2 prime masters since all the stores they have been seen at don't seem to exist in Oklahoma.

    The OKC area must be on a different distribution stream then the Tulsa area. No trace of wave 2 deluxes here. :(

    I must be old already because these days "the hunt" has more frustration than success. I've seen 0 of wave 2 of any class in Tulsa Hills, Woodland, BA, Sand Springs, Owasso, and Tahlequah.
    It's hard NOT to be a cranky old man. "Hrm, new stuff every other month in my day, only paid 10.50 for a deluxe AFTER tax I tell ya... mmm, oatmeal... Toys R Us dying like all my other friends... *grumble grumble* Amazon figures overpriced to pay for the coaster that answers questions but won't put her manager on the line... she works for the Scalpers I just know it"

    Picked up the two Ramhorns at Moore 5 Below, they had exactly one of each variant. I had found one version at Aldi's a couple months ago, but wasn't sure which and the difference in color really isn't apparent unless you have both hand-in-hand. That store has some Apeface also, for anyone that missed him. That figure is worth the $3 they are asking IMO.

    Finally! Wave 2 Deluxes spotted in Target in south Tulsa this weekend! 2-3 of Sludge and Snarl, 1 each of their wave-mates... no other classes yet, but man, completing Volcanicus made my kid SO happy for Easter! And I'm not upset about finding Blackwing for myself either.

    I've paid little to no attention to anything outside the POTP figs I'm looking for, but specifically the wave 2 POTP deluxes I found a week ago were the Target at 71st and Highway 75... actually went back later same day and I think all that was left was 1 Snarl. All the others I had seen just a few HOURS earlier were gone. I haven't seen anything of wave 2 (any class) prior nor since.

    Yeah, it seems like the Studio Series is clogging up space for the Voyagers and Leaders.

    March and April seemed to be the main time to find PoTP wave 2 deluxe and voyagers, and mostly at Walmart. The Rodimus repaint was out around then also. Wave 2 legends aren't too hard to get currently though, most Walmarts and Targets seem to have some of them. I got the two wave 2 Prime Masters from Amazon, paid about $10/$12 for each (which doesn't hurt too badly since I have Prime and they just refuse to hit locally).

    I agree with the assessment of studio series crowding out the potp. Basically, I feel the local retailers have this understanding of TF's having 3 categories: kids (current cartoon), collectors (generations), and Movies ("best sellers"). Studio Series has this annoying aura of forced, premature nostalgia with a "gourmet" splash thrown in so they can justify a price hike. This of course is going to make retailers say "ooh, Movie AND Collectors in one? Of course... now we don't have to buy any cases of the Collectors only stuff."

    I only ever saw the potp wave 2 deluxe once... but for the last maybe 2-3 weeks it seems SS SS is keeping shelves toasty already. I've seen him just about everywhere it seems.
