    Jazz210, I checked out Walgreens at Micron/Culebra, Potranco/Ellison, and 1604/Millitary and no luck. Mind me asking where you saw them at?

    Don't bother checking out the Walgreens on Austin & Eisenhauer, there's nothing there.

    Grabbed the only TR Deluxe Mindwipe at the Walgreens on Nacogdoches & O'Connor. :) 

    Remaining are 2 TR Deluxe Highbrows & 1 TR Deluxe Chromedome.

    Are Walgreens the places to be looking for wave 2 deluxes? I could care less about Brainstorm. In looking for Weirdwolf and Mindwipe. Are they showing up in other places in Houston yet?

    I sold the SDCC Fort Max.

    I saw Leader TR Soundwave at Madness, but as expected it is at $60 if someone is desperate to have it today.

    Yes, so far only wave 2 deluxes have been spotted at Walgreens in the US/Texas/Houston. Walmarts, Targets, and ToysRus only have wave 1 deluxes from what I have seen so far.

    Is that how it's gonna be for Walgreens in San Antonio?

    Multiple TR Highbrows, yet only one TR Chromedome, Mindwipe, and Wolfwire on their shelves?

    Picked up a Mindwipe from Walgreen at Bellaire @ Synott. They have 1 Chromedome left.

    These suckers are expensive at Walgreens. I might buy one more if I see a Highbrow or Wolfwire but that's gonna be it until they start bringing them prices down a bit.

In my defense someone did stock them on the Shelf where the voyagers are and the voyagers had a sale tag from $28 to $14

    As of yesterday afternoon, there were 2 Highbrows at the Walgreens on Woodway/Chimney Rock and 1 Chromedome and 1 Mindwipe at the Walgreens on Wirt/Westview. Between being $20 and the packaging not being near mint, I passed on them.

    Target on Jones/249 has RID Minicon Battle Strongarm & Sideswipe. I got 1 of the 2 Strongarm sets and left both white Sideswipes sets. This store also has a full case of TR Legends (3 Rewind, 3 Stripes, and 2 Wheelies).

    Tried again at potranco/ellison. No luck. Looks like someone tore up the section though. Also tried millitary/1604 to no luck either.
