    Found 4 Ruinations at the Super Wal Mart on 50 near UCF as well as several of the new Playskool bots (which I summarily cleaned out).

    A little OT but they also had the Battle Scarred Gundams which I also picked up :)

    I know it's not Armada, but it is a Florida sighting. The much aligned, much rumored, often immitated but never duplicated Starscream is availablle for purchase at Once Upon a Toy at the Disney Marketplace in Orlando. Check out the thread I posted in the Toyark for a pic:p  !


    I wish I had a cool sig :(  !

    Just picked up Jetfire from the Vero Beach Target. He's pretty sweet.


    I'm working on shrinking my sig.

    Saw 2 more Jetfires at the Wal-mart in G-ville last night. Also, they just got restocked on Prime (with yellow accents), Smokescreen, Blurr and Sideways. Go get 'em!

    I haven't been checking much recently, but I did get to a couple of Wal-Marts today.

    I've only found Galvatron, the Sea Team, and the Air Assault Team. That was only at the Delray Beach Wal-Mart. The Boynton Beach Wal-Mart Supercenter only had Galvatron, but the entire aisle there looked like people had been in a buying frenzy (a couple of trampled boxes included).

    Got Galvatron and the sea team at the Fort Walton Beach Wmart. Destin and Crestview had nothing. No Thundercrackers spotted either. On another note Jetfire is showing up at Kmarts around here so if you're having a hard time finding him give them a look.

    My Walmart was wiped out yesterday. They everything but Thundercracker, Sideswipe, Thrust and the wave 4 minicons the week before, including a boat load of wave 1 stuff. Yesterday they had a Galvatron and empty shelves and pegs.

    Found Galvatron and Dark Saber minicons at the Target in Oviedo. Only one Galvatron left after I bought mine and no Dark Saber minicons after I bought mine. No other wave 4 mincons at all, were snatched up already.

    I found Thundercracker at a Walmart last week. That's the newest Armada toy we've gotten. I'm still looking for Thrust and Sideswipe. Hopefully they'll hit here soon.

    There were about 5-6 Armada Thundercrackers at the Toys R Us in Altamonte Springs after I bought mine this morning.

    Found Thurst and Sideswipe at Target next to the Oviedo Marketplace. They looked like they had just restocked their supercons but as Thrust and Sideswipe were in the front of 2 racks, I didn't even bother to look if they had more though I"m sure they did :D  I'd have to say this is probably the best place to look for Armada toys when a new wave is released...it's the first place I found Jetfire, Galvatron, Thundercracker, the new minicons and now these 2....best time to go seems to be SUnday mornings. Happy hunting for anyone in the area.:cool:

    Wow the Walmarts here are getting even worse. All they had yesterday was Jetfire. Something Target had 3 months ago! :mad:

    Got Sideswipe at Kmart here in Niceville today. If I'de went yesterday I might have found Thrust. Its actually quite sad when the Kmart here gets stuff before Walmart.
