    I never actually saw them on the shelf at the wally's that I got mine from, I actually pulled it off the pallet and bought it, but I never did see them hit the shelves, which leads me to believe that they were used as Black Friday items and were gone same day, and I didn't get there till about 9 pm, all gone.

    Four WMs in my area got them in, and one of them had a restock, but they went really quick.

    I saw ONE of these in a Walmart the other day. So they're still around. if I weren't concerned with being able to afford Christmas presents for some people, I would've picked one up!

    I saw 5 at a Wal-Mart in Kennesaw, GA this morning. It's the same Wal-Mart where I found them about a month ago. Oddly, I also frequently check 5 other Wal-Marts and I've never seen one at any of them.

    Only saw it once in store and there were only three on a pallet and they never even made it to the shelf. Checked back an hour later to see if there were any left and it was like they never even existed.

    It's official, these are all sold out at my local Walmart. As long as they stayed on the shelves, I figured there would be a few hanging around. No deal!

    I haven't seen MP SS at my local Walmart since they initially got their cases. They sold out in a matter of days.

    I'm hoping the sellouts mean future MP seekers by Hasbro. If this was a huge success, maybe Hasbro will do a MP Thundercracker and others down the road. I want my MP seekers! :D

    My local WMT apparently got a few cases in--or else they were lost in the backroom for a while and just got stocked. I counted 14 of them just sitting there...warming the shelf. It was a rather stunning sight. I should've taken a pic for posterity.

    But I'm not in a position financially right now to do favors for anyone. This is the week before Christmas, y'know.
