    Just got one of the two still on the shelf. Will be cancelling my pre-order once I return home.

    Echoing what Lore Keeper said, Wal-Mart in Berea has plenty of Snapdragon, but no idea if he'll ring up below MSRP.

    Grabbed one of those $10 Battlesnakes from WM. Will make a good pet for CC.

    Forgot to mention, 2 Overloads on the shelf at Florence Target. One of my old coworkers said there’s no Leadfoot or ER Voyagers inbound (none scheduled for at least 2 weeks since that was the usual maximum “On the Way” estimate)

    Hamburg Target had a lone Doubledealer that I just bought. No sign of Overload.

    I did almost have my heart broke at a Target in Western Kentucky. As I walked to the toys, I noticed a Neca TMNT SDCC set for the Coming Out of Our Shells Tour figures. Two of them, actually. When I got the end cap, however, I realized it was just the tour merchandise add-on pack.

    Maybe just as well given how much I had already spent that day. But it would have been hard to not buy the actual figure set.

    Found SS Overload at bashford target, but they took it away during checkout. Said the street date was Oct 1.

    Found another at O Loop Target, same issue.
    Then they said fuck it and rang it up anyway.

    Don’t buy Overload from Target, unless you’re feeling lucky.

    This is why you gotta self checkout with a figure of equal value when you can.

    Go to the self-checkout with the figure you want that you fear might not scan correctly and another figure that costs the same that you know will scan correctly. For example, grab SS Overload and SS Leader Megatron and head to the self-checkout. Scan Megatron, put Overload in the shopping bag, pay, leave Megatron at the store and leave with Overload.

    Standing in line with Overload at Hamburg Target. Really wish I had that Doubledealer from earlier to scan alongside it, lol. Wish me luck.

    SUCCESS! Just asked me how much it was, I told them, and they rang it up. Photographic proof attached. This one I'm going to open. The one I have on pre-order is either going to stay in the box, or be opened and displayed somehow if those Devastator box set rumors are true. 0825201902.jpg

    SCORE! Most of the time when I’ve gotten street date denial at Target, they’ve just snatched it out of my hands....lol.
