#12113 | | Brown Chicken Brown Cow Join Date: Sep 2002 Posts: 2,076 News Credits: 3 | Back from Spokane. Didn't find anything out that way as White Elephant was closed for the holiday and the only store I could find without testing my wife's patience too much was K-Mart which didn't have anything I was looking for. But, if you're up to a 8 hour round trip, that store did have 3 TFA Shockwaves and 2 Skywarps. I was able to pick up some Mighty Muggs and Kid Robot vinyl figures at a cool shop called Boo Radley's where I could have dropped a few thousand $$$ on all their vinyl figures. Good thing the wife was with me to rein me in.
The Tacoma Target put out a sample of their new Joe products, barely any new figures. ut, I bought the Mole Pod. Neat little toy. Tacoma TRU has a lot of the usual stuff.
So, I'm still looking for Jetfire. In the Vice's Grip - Where I talk about toys and stuff.

#12114 | | Brigade Commander Join Date: Feb 2008 Posts: 601 Location: Renton, Washington Collection Count: Enough to make your inner child freakin jealous baby!!! | Was at Renton Walmart today doing some shopping for something else. But looked in the TF aisle. Enough ROTF toys to bury you 6ft under. Since I'm not collecting ROTF toys I don't know what you all are looking for besides Jetfire which I didn't see there.
But they did have a few Soundwaves, a couple Ravages, a voyager Megs, a few Stratospheres and everything else that everyone likely already has. Does anyone know if the shoulder tab issue was fixed on the deluxe mold Brawl? I'm considering replacing my first movie deluxe Brawl with the deluxe ROTF one if that is the case. Things to remember: Girls don't appreciate it when you yell "Beast Mode!" when switching to doggy style. You might be a TF nerd if . . . you stand in front of a yellow Camaro and keep yelling at it to "Transform already!!.

As for sightings, nothing of note at Lynwood Target. Lynwood Toys R Us had a Robot Replicas Sideswipe, but that was absolutely it.
However, I did come across a couple Animated Activators Cliffjumpers in the Kirkland area if anyone needs one. PM me for location. |

#12117 | | Brown Chicken Brown Cow Join Date: Sep 2002 Posts: 2,076 News Credits: 3 | Had to run into town for cat food and beer, so I stopped at the Lakewood Target where all the pegs and shelves are set up for TRoC figures, but remain empty. I had a nice young lady check for me and since the boxes are marked 7/10, she couldn't sell them to me. I didn't want to argue with her because she was very nice, a rarity for Target employees. So, I continue to wait for my movie ninjas.
No Jetfire either. They're pretty picked clean of everything except for the Voyager recolors. In the Vice's Grip - Where I talk about toys and stuff.

Hopefully, White Elephant will be open on our next visit. I liked what I could see through the windows. In the Vice's Grip - Where I talk about toys and stuff.

Interesting little toy, I guess he scored a bunch of stuff from a guy they bought a bed from off Craigslist. Good price on the bed, and a bunch of free transformers for the kid. Can't go wrong with that.
Thanks for the PM Bomb, I may head that way tonight, but have had a busy day playing catchup after July 3rd and 4th. Thanks for looking out. Retail Wants: HA Mudflap
