    Findings from Friday, July 9th, 2004:

    Oak Grove W-M: Still one Mirage (I had to leave, sadly) and one RHD Alt. Silver Streak

    Lee's Summit: W-M: Nothing. Target: Nothing, not even $20 Unicron.

    Independence: W-M: 1 Insecticon & 1 Cruellock. Target: Nothing. KB Toys (in Indep. Center): fresh stock of Energon Basics. Arcee is gone from that shippment now.

    After passing her up twice before, I finally got my Arcee. Now I need an Alt. Hound (as far as fingures that are out in MO now)

    Thanks Devita, you just saved me my night. It's a shame that KC metro is always the last place that gets new stuff in. Though I will be checking Independence Wal-Mart early this morning after shipment is placed, so if anything new I will make sure to post here.

    Thanks for doing that for me......I picked up the Silverstreak tonight, but you should have left the Hound too. =P LOL

    Anyways....I actually went to Osage Beach, saw the 1 Sideswipe....Cussed a lot cause I got beat again. And then decided that if it was Brittap that beat me too them then that's a lot better then an out of towner getting them. ::Glares at ERrorMACro :: So I came home to see if that was the case....and it was, but then I find out there was a Silverstreak behind the Primes. So I turned around and went right back and go him....LOL. Good figure.....but is the helmet on yours kinda gold? Cause mine is.

    Glad to hear you got him, when I was there at 4:30 am the case was in the middle of the skid but the stocker was more then happy to pull it and open it up. She was almost as excited as I was to see new stuff. And yeah mine has a goldish helmet. Going to Springfield, Buffalo, and Leb. today if I find a Hound I'll snag it for you. :thumb :

    That's the way its been here in Springfield for the last few weeks now. I haven't even found an Alt. Silverstreak yet, and I've been looking a lot.

    The Wal-mart on N. Kansas Expressway was tearing out their toy section yesterday(they've been slowly remolding the whole store), so I'm hoping they stock some new items when they get it back together.

    DeeKay, how far along is the toy section's remodel? I was thinking of heading over there tonight, but I'd rather not waste the gas.

    Btw, I saw nothing new at the Nixa & Walnut Lawn WMs or the big K on S. Campbell. I checked Republic and Sunshine WMs yesterday and saw nothing either. Springfield is kinda knee deep in Ironhides still :(

    It looked like they had just started on it Friday afternoon. Most of the shelves were bare, some shelves were gone, and all the endcaps were gone. I have no idea how long it will take.

    Nothing newsworthy in Jefferson City or Eldon. There were a few Demolishers in Jeff but that's it in terms of new stuff.

    Nothing new in Independence except the Target has the backpacks. Definitely made for kids.

    Edit: Checked KB Toys just after I got my hair cut and they have a nice sale on Transformers stuff. Let's see for $20 I got this:

    Armada Board game: $9.99
    Minicon Skyboom Shield Repaint: $4.99
    BTR Starscream: $2.99
    BTR Demolisher: $1.49

    Nothing at the Wal-Mart and Target around 135th and State Line in KC. I did see, but did not purchase the Off Shoot (?) repaint at the Ward Parkway Target.

    After an excruciatingly long wait, I have finally aquired two new figures! What are these new figures I have aquired? Well, they are repaints. $@%!ing repaints.

    :mad: 

    I just got home with Offshoot and Energon Strongarm, both of which I found at the Target in Columbia.

    Although repaints are better than nothing, it would be nice to see a NEW mold hitting shelves sometime in the next 6 months... :redface

    I checked out Kohls that morning, I couldn't find anything but video games. Is there more than two in Springfield or are the toys just hiding?

    I went to the one on glenstone in the walmart area. That's the only one I know about. They only had one set I bought it. If you go in the doors take a right then take a left down the main aisle to your left about halfway back you will see the toy aisle it is very small.

    Well I'll be damn. (or is it damned...?)

    I guess I won't be going to Target's grand opening this Sunday. Why?

    The damn store is already open to the public! I heard today that they have been open for several days now. WTF? How did anyone know? Anyway, I went in today and found Omega Supreme (they only have one left), but no Shockblast, Cliffjumper, or Alt Hound.
