    Is that Netflix Cheetor worth it? I've been on the fence and keep seeing some folks say how unsatisfying the mold is.

    Forgot to post this yesterday. Hobbytown slowly putting out new model kits, they have another big ass Death Stinger if anyone cares. Nothing note worthy really at the Shortpump Walmart that I could remember.

    Holy crap, I wish they gave the Retro Headmasters wave one this kind of treatment.

    Its not a bad mold, I am not sure what issues others are having but the issues I have with it is the Cheetah eyes have no pupils and wish the blade on the weapon was painted like the normal Kingdom release. Though if you are still on the fence then wait for the Tigertron release as I'm it is using the same mold.

    Plus you got time to decide if you want the toy because they won't be able to get rid of that army of Netflix wave three deluxes.

    Lynheaven walmart barren only one Black Arachina and one red cheetor. However if you guys are in the area and looking for a certian pair of switch joycons. They have some. I almost didn't want to day anything cause the scalpers lurking but this will be the best wsy to get them at market value.

    Thanks! Tigertron will be a different mold (ish?) as he is a voyager class. However I am leaning more toward the shadow panther mold in wave 4. He's got that creepy mutant mask head that haunts me.

    Janaf Walmart and Target are emptier than the plot of a Hallmark movie.

    Still no sightings of Slag in RVA? I hope we didn't miss him. I do have a Target preorder but who knows if that'll actually ship...

    I was there the other day and actually double checked the tags thinking they either moved them or got rid of them entirely.

    I was in that Walmart last Friday and they had a sparsely filled Transformer section. Mostly Cyberverse and W2 Netflix deluxes. Was looking for the current R.E.D. figures.

    I had read rumors in another thread that suppliers were having problems securing Hasbro product. It was so bad in places that a few Targets were telling workers to ration what they put on the shelves because they didn’t know when they might get resupplied.

    I hadn’t paid much attention to it until recently when I noticed the lack of toys on the shelves.

    That's not how that works

    Also, this time of year toy shelves are always bare. Kids play outside in the summer, and the new toys start coming out (for Christmas) in August. Both Walmart and Target are resetting their toy shelves in the next 2-3 weeks, it doesn't make sense to order more of the old stuff when you have all new stuff coming.

    Shit. That's AFTER I bought like 4 Deeseus drones and 2 zombie bots there two weeks ago. Do they have an entire motherload in the back?

    They were the first Walmart to get the W2 deluxes in the area and it was 4 cases worth. I cleaned them out shortly after.

    I got a few Drones and Sparkless there, as well. There was a point where they'd completely filled up the TF section with Netflix Deluxes and THEN they got at least 2-3 more cases of them that they had to make room for. I've been considering getting a few of the blue Deep Covers from there and using him as like my Generic Background Autobot Guy. I've never really done any customizing, but he seems like he'd be easy to take apart and spray different colors onto his blue parts.

    Nothing at VCC Target tonight. Nothing at Brook Road(?) Walmart either. I don't usually go that far south.
