    Also got some more stuff for sale, had a lot of great transactions with folks from this sightings thread so figured I'd offer up some more stuff. I'll knock a few bucks off most things for folks who can pick it up from me in Vancouver:

    Only stuff I can't discount is anything $10 or under and LG-17 Blackarachnia, since the price listed there is exactly what I paid for her after shipping.

    TFs at Walgreens

    I just checked my local Walgreens (SW PDX off Taylor's Ferry), ran into another collector who had JUST snagged both Chromedome and Mindwipe (story of my life).

    I picked up a Highbrow. One Highbrow still remaining there.

    No Brainstorm but I'm fairly certainly I'm at least the 3rd collector to hit that store in the past few days.

    So is this supposed to be the Brainstorm wave or is this just wave 2?

    These are wave 2. Brainstorm is all by his lonesome when he releases

    Yea, someone asked me to keep an eye out for him and told me he's supposed to be dropping in October. Dunno if that's accurate.

    I assume it'll be like the recent ML Punisher, it will hit all stores at pretty much the same time and each store will get 2 - 4 with some getting much more. Last time I went out I saw Punisher at nearly every store here now, and I saw on Reddit some folks found him in Wilsonville, Beaverton and Tigard yesterday. Shouldn't be too hard to find Brainstorm, I don't think I've ever struggled finding a Walgreens Hasbro figure. It took two stores for me to grab a Punisher.

    Has anyone around the Eugene/Springfield area had any luck finding wave 2? Haven't found time to run in to Walgreens but the Walmarts and Targets have been barren lately.

    I actually got notice for 2 things today:
    1) Wave 2 titans are shipping out, figured it'd just be better if I ordered them versus hunting them down when I'm kind of time crunching right now for Rose City Comic Con.
    2) HLJ had me pay up for my Takara Computron........thank GOD. I've been waiting forever I think for this to finally got released.

    Looks like within a week I'll be pretty TF happy with most of the headmasters, a proper nice astrotrain and an even more proper computron.

    Now if I only didn't have to pay an arm and leg for Ultra Magnus right now. Since he's no longer on shelves and I NEVER saw him while cruising around, I had to look online and dear god Amazon wanted 80 dollars!

    Good to hear they're shipping. Trying to find them on the pegs because once i start ordering i'm afraid of how much i'll spend.

    EDIT: Wave two deluxes are around 35 bucks on amazon right now so there is no way in hell i'll be ordering those. Not gonna drop 70 to pick up Mindwipe and Weirdwolf

    And every time i've checked BBTS they've been sold out, so i guess i'll just stick with trying to find them in person.

    Went to the Walgreens store near Monroe Street in Milwaukee and picked up the lone Mindwipe there. The Walgreens in Johnson Creek near the Sportsman Warehouse has a lone Mindwipe there.

    I saw both of those figs today. Passed on both. The Johnson Creek one had a Wolverine and Kitty Pride. Grabbed those.

    Nevermind! Found what I was looking for!

    I might be selling mine, but it won't likely be for a week or two. I can hit you up when I get to the bin it's stored in, it's loose but complete with the manual.

    I'm still looking for Wierdwolf and Highbrow, so I'll keep a look out. Damn that Ford GT is nice though. I'm long past Hot Wheels but I've got a special spot in my heart for the GT.

    Thanks for the help but I found them today! Second Walgreens I stopped at, they stashed the whole set on the overflow shelf at the top.

    my TR Astrotrain came in, I like the overall sculpt of him, so G1 it's great. But his alt modes just feel lacking like color separation for the shuttle windows and his train mode just looks so tiny. I mean it works fine in the end but I feel like we got more altmode look wise from his old classics mold than what we got here.

    Guess I can't complain though, for once he's fairly proper looking and I'm fine with his color scheme.

    For you guys hunting Titans Return Wave 2 at Walgreens, there is a 25% off coupon good today and tomorrow:

    https://www.walgreens.com/topic/promotion/super_savings_coupon.jsp

    If you already got the figures and haven't opened them, you should be able to do a return and rebuy with the coupon. They might even let you do it without bringing the figures in if you bought them very recently.
