    Got a banged up box CW Silverbolt at the Johnstown TJ Maxx for $10. I was pretty happy about that. There were a few $15 Motormasters and Silverbolts kicking around in random places. Still waiting to find a Sky Lynx. Have yet to see any CW gift sets at any TJ Max or Ross in my area. I already have them all, but wouldn't mind picking up a few for trade bait, to pass along to others, or sit on for resale (yeah, yeah, I know).

    Found Scourge yesterday at the Monaca Walmart. They also had all of the wave 2 deluxes there at the time and a few other wave 1. Target had nothing and I didn't get a chance to check out Toys R Us.

    There's a Scourge at Cheltenham Target along with 1 Leader class Blaster and several wave 2 Legends.

    I'm surprised. Chambersburg Walmart got something before BBTS.

    They got 3 cases of the legends Sandman wave. I canceled my preorder at BBTS and bought the the whole wave there instead. Plus I saved $30 by doing that. Somebody else grabbed some of the figs too.

    Here are the leftovers

    4 Symbiote Spider-Man
    2 Spider-Man UK
    1 Spider-Man 2099
    1 Green Goblin
    1 Shocker
    1 Jackal
    1 Ms. Marvel

    On the Transformers side of things:

    No leaders
    No deluxes
    Lots of Galvatron

    Haven't been to Longhorn. Did go to Texas Roadhouse and my girlfriend found a fly in her salad. Never going there again.

    Shippensburg Walmart has three of each of the wave two deluxes. Nice seeing the pegs full of something besides wave one and NuRiD stuff.

    Asked a relative to hit the Erie TRU for me, unfortunately was unable to find the two I requested (Hot Rod and Twinferno).

    Nothing much new TF wise. Monaca TRU HAD one hot rod yesterday. Walgreens in Carnegie/ Scott Twp, next to Wal-Mart has lots of C3PO right now, bottom shelf on an endcap by the toy aisle.

    So you were the one who grabbed them. I just missed you by a couple minutes. It would've been nice to meet another person from this forum.


    Longhorn is good. I hate Roadhouse, I avoid that place like the plague.

    Nothing has changed at Chambersburg Target, same stuff mentioned in my last post.

    They must not have asked the staff. There were like 10 cases above the racks. No joke.

    Yeah even before I worked there I was never much for Texas roadhouse. Anywhere they tell you to throw garbage on the floor is not for me.

    Ah jeez, well, no, that's not the sort of thing that they would have done. It's hard enough just to say "look for Hot Rod and Twinferno" I don't even want to get into something like "look for boxes that say deluxe wave 3 and ask someone who works there"

    North Harrisburg Target (the one on Rt 22) had:
    For Titans Return, Wave 3 of the Titan Masters (two of each), one Astrotrain, and one Blaster
    For RID, I think I saw a Ratchet. I've skipped that line entirely so I don't focus on it.

    It's peanut shells, not just random garbage.
    Peanut oil is good for hardwood floors.
    Still won't go back there though.

    I know that but it still is trashy in my opinion. One time I've been in one I just hated constantly stepping on them and crunching around on them.

    Chambersburg Walmart
    2 cases of deluxes that had a mixture of wave 1 and 2. It had everything except Mindwipe and Wolfwire
    Lots of Galvatron
    No Leaders
    A full case of the Sandman legends wave?? (I don't remember seeing Green Goblin, but everyone else is there.)
