    if you want extra Armada figures...

    Round 2. I was all over Indy over the weekend (5 or 6 Walmarts, 5 or 6 Targets, 3 Meijer, 2 TRU, 3 K-Mart, ... just to find no Energon Magnus anywhere), here are some things of potential interest.

    Noblesville Walmart (clearance section!): Armada Megatron on clearance for $13 (they had a dozen; the boxes are rough around the edges). Megatron/Cyclonus BTR sets are $17. Jetfire BTR is $4. They only had on Megatron Cyclonus set, so I'd assume those are gone now. They had a few Jetfire BTRs, though. Oh, and Landfill sets are selling for $12.

    K-Mart on Pendleton Pike has numerous Armada figures (later releases like Wheeljack and Powerlinx Jetfire). They had a blue Emergency Team repaint (keyword: had. I had to pick that up, since that's only my second set to own and only the second blue Emer. Team repaint I've ever seen in person). They did have 2 of the Jetfire + Optimus 2-packs (and if that Corona Sparkplug being packed in some was a reality, these aren't those... just regular yellow Sparkplugs). They had very little Energon. I'm hoping they'll eventually catch up and be forced to put some E. Magnus on the shelf in the process...

    Walmart at Keystone and Ruth Dr. (is that the road?) on the north side had several Scavengers and one P. Red Alert (+ Minicon team) for $11. They have a couple Armada Primes (Super) on clearance; I'm guessing those are about $20 since the other Armada figures are roughly 50% off. They also had 2 Armada Smokescreens. Oh, and, if you want an Armada Unicron in Energon packaging. They had a couple. [Note, the Armada figures are in the clearance section.]

    I was wondering if you had taken the day off in going there. I felt fortunate in getting those. I hope that you got the Rodimus and Prowl that were left.

    <b>Indy Northside Finds</b>

    Alt. Side Swipe at the Carmel/Westfield Wal-Mart (US-31 & 151st). They had 6 left as of noon today.
    (<b>EDIT:</b> Oops. Noon yesterday, actually. It was before midnight when I started the post....)

    Also, in case anyone is looking, the Nora (86th St.) Target had 2 Rapid Runs left at about 11:30AM. (Haven't seen too many of those around here.)

    BTW, in case anyone cares, Alt Swipey makes TF #450 for me! <b>W00T!</b>

    got 'em...

    Thanks, another! Those 2 were still left out in Plainfield this morning. They didn't get anything new in last night. I may have sounded grumpy in my original post, but I was glad that you were the one who got them... :)

    <b>TF:U Wave 4 Deluxes in Indy</b>

    Found Skywarp & Triceradon at the Indy/Fishers Meijer on E. 96th St. this afternoon. One Skywarp & 2 Triceradons left at 4 PM. Plus, Meijer was having one of its "10% off all general merchandise" days today, so they were $8.97 each.

    (Sorry for the late entry, all, but the boards wouldn't load for me when I tried earlier....)

    Picked up one 20th Anniversary Prime today at the 38th St. Target. They had a second, which another passed on. This was gotten through the DPCI, and pulled out from the back.

    Indy Sightings...

    I found and purchased the one Landmine on the shelf at the West Washington St. Super K-Mart. They have one 20th Anniversary Prime (gray gun) on the shelf at the Avon SuperTarget, which I didn't buy.

    On a side note, K-Mart seems to be charging $29.99 for Ultras now... I probably wouldn't have bought Landmine if I had seen the price before I was checking out. I saw a price of $21.99 on their Megas, so I should have paid closer attention...
