found like 5 of each Destructicons at the Washington Square KB....man are these toys cheap (i'm not talking about the price, i'm talking about the transformation/what their made of)....oh well, anything for a Optimus/Megatron toy (even if its a repaint)
If anyone in the Portland area feels like driving that far, the McMinville Walmart had quite a few Dinobots when I stopped by today.
Do you mean the one in Woodburn? I'm headed South Friday night for the holiday, so I'll definately be stopping by
Nope, I do mean the one in McMinville. The Woodburn Walmart, since converting to a Super Walmart, has really started to suck badly.
made my way to the Beaverdale Target....saw a little boy (with his mom) standing right in front of the TF section....and in his hands were Rhinox & Terrorsaur....then i heard his mom say there's another Rhinox and another Terrorsaur....as they left i went straight and got the last of each.....check'd out the 185th & TV Hwy locations, no such luck....in 2 days, i got 4 new toys...hopefully, tomorrow, i can snag me some Dinobots....happy huntings....
Omega, I love you for the report but I hate you for getting them! Argh! Just kidding of course! I'm checking out the Clackamas Target and TRU on my lunch hour, and will report back if I find anything. Heading south for the weekend, so I'll be hitting everything between Portland and Cottage Grove off the I-5 corridor that I can get to. By the way...where in McMinville is the Wal*Mart? The only place I ever visit there is Fry's, but if there is a Wal*Mart there, I'd love to know where it's at. Peace out...happy hunting everyone! Rammy
Lol, sorry Rammy, I think you're thinking of Wilsonville. McMinville is about 20 minutes west of Tualitin along Hwy. 99.
Right you are...I'm such a dorkus maximus. I looked it up online after I posted and was like whooooa...way off! So either on my way up or way back from Eugene, I might veer off I-5 and check it out. You say they had Dinobots the other day? I did a Mapquest from Fry's (I have to stop by there on my way down this afternoon to return something) and it said McMinnville was an hour and 15 minutes from Fry's...does that sound right? Man, that's like more than halfway to the coast! Anyway, thanks for the heads up citcgn! Rammy
Maybe if you're driving really slowly. I sometimes have to make deliveries in McMinville and I live in Milwaukie. It takes me about 50 minutes to get home from there and I tend not to drive too much over the speed limit...and that's during rush hour usually.
Cool Beans. I see that 99 loops around to join I5 around Salem, so I think I'll take a little jaunt. Hopefully they will have Dinobots and maybe the Armada beasts. Cool that you live in Milwaukie...it seems nice enough. I live in SW near OHSU but I work in Milwaukie, right on Main st. next to the old southgate theater. Peace, have a great weekend and thanks for all the travel info! Rammy
Hit the Clackamas area at lunch, here's my report; The Clackamas KB is closed, boarded up, while they remodel. No date on the sign as to when they will re-open. The Clackamas Target has Lots of the Dreadwind and Smokejumper exclusives, and quite a few supercons, including several Sideswipes if you still want to grab him. But no really "new" figures other than that. The Clackamas TRU has TONS of supercons, all on sale for 9.99. We're talking the usual full section, plus another one of equal size up front by the video area. BUT, No Armada beasts or any other new figures, just lots of Optimus, Blurr, Sideswipe, Demolisher, etc. They also had a good stock of all the G1 re-issues. That's it from me... Rammy
Hey Ramulus, I live near OHSU too, in Lair Hill. Went to Lloyd Center today, nothing much to report, pretty much like what Rammy said (with fewer reissues). No Destructicons at the Lloyd Kaybee.
went to Woodburns yesterday (first time there), check out the BOSE store, man was that cool, along with other stores....then finally ended my trip at Wal-Mart, man they didn't have nothing (No Super-Con figures, like 5 Super-Pants Prime and 15-20 Megatrons on one shelf and 5 more on another shelf)...grrr...
yeah, i should of add this too, for you He-Man buyers, when i went to buy the Rhinox and Terrorsaur at Beaverdale, i found Whiplash and Fire Armor Skeletor...
I found a Terrorsaur at the Clackamas Target today. Then I went to the Mall 205 Target to see if I could find Rhinox, and I did. Grabbed him, but there was still a Terrorsaur left there. It might be a good time to try out Targets in the area, as it seems multiples stores got the figures in. Also, both figures came with the volume 4 comic (Overload, Tidalwave, Unicron, etc.)
yeah, my terrorsaur and rhinox both came with the Vol. 4 comic....and i predict there'll be more next week.... went to the McMinnville Wal-Mart today , took me an hour drive thru the back roads (if i were to go thru the freeway, it would be 2x as long (or thats what Wal-Marts directions said it would be))...but anyways, there were lots of Dinobots (though they were the stock above)...got me all 6 of them.... all i need now is the new HOC PVCs....happy huntings...
Well I had SUCKY luck this weekend! While out visiting friends and family in the Eugene area, Between Portland and Eugene I hit four Wal*Mart's, one Target, and a TRU and found SQUAT! I was seriously upset...usually my TF mojo is working much better than that! So if anyone sees the Armada Beasts or Dinobots, please post a sighting. Tomorrow I'll be trying to hit the local Target's, but any heads up will be welcome! Also, I have KB Scourge and Bludgeon I will trade for a Armada Terrorsaur/Rhinox plus $5 (the KB exclusives were $12.99 each, so I think that's fair). But PM me soon, otherwise I'll be returning them.
