    Anybody found a "Mudflap" Mudflap anywhere near the B'ham area? I must have gone through 50 of them between several Wal-Mart and Target locations in and around the area. They all had "Trax" on the tag. I'm really wondering if this truly is a "chase" variant, and not a supposed "running change," since it seems to be so damned hard to find.

    I was there yesterday and didn't see them. Where were they? I must have over looked. Sad thing is I ended up driving all over Huntsville checking walmarts/targets for HA BB...

    The Targets and the TRU in the Bham area had an A$$ LOAD of them! I am thinking about getting another to do the mod Peaugh shows on one of his vids.

    FINALLY found "Mudflap" Mudflap. Several, actually - so I suppose a "running change" is indeed the deal, since I saw more than one. Fultondale Target off of I-65 N has him. As of 6:00 pm today, there were 5 remaining on the pegs (if anyone else is interested). Saw 3 "revised" Cannon Bumblebee figs with the clear blue windows, too.

    They also had what appeared to be remnants of Wave 5 (!), which is insane since I haven't even seen any Wave 4 around here yet. 1 Swerve (Sideswipe red repaint) and 1 black Scorponok repaint were hanging in the back of two separate rows. Grabbed both. Swerve is pretty damn sweet! Don't normally cave on too many repaints, but both of these were sexy as hell, IMO.

    Also - saw 2 $99 Supreme Devs at the Target in Alabaster last night. He's cooler than I expected (mouth gimmick rocks), but not for Ben Franklin plus tax. If some survive out there long enough in the stores to make the discount aisle for around half price sometime in the future, consider him bought.

    Hueytown Wal-Mart has new Scouts. Picked up Ejector and Nightbeat. Ejector is AWESOME - best Scout Class purchase EVER. His head sculpt is so hilarious in person.

    g

    Guntersville Wal-Mart has 2 sets of the new Dark Trooper build a figure, I bought 3 a while back when they re-released the old one, glad I got them, but sad that I can not afford to get the new one.

    $17x5 plus tax $85 for one figure, and not interested in any of the others in the sets.

    Target on I-459, exit 1 has the "Mudflap" Mudflap and the "dark variant" Sideways.

    I'm going to have to hit the Wally worlds to find that HA Sideswipe and may make a trip tonight!

    Picked up Leader Jetfire tonight. :)  Springville Wal-Mart off I-59 had him. Just one though. Might be worth checking again soonish though, if you live close by there or can make the drive fairly easily - his box was minty compared to the Leader Megs and Primes that were out there, so maybe they put Jetfire out by himself from another case(?). So there might be more shortly, just to keep the character on the shelf. The one I nabbed is the first one I've seen anywhere around here, though - so who knows. He is freaking awesome.

    Attalla Wal-Mart had a HA Sideswipe and tons of HA 'Bee. Jack squat, otherwise. Gadsden/Rainbow City sucked, too. I swear - most of these WM locations must have been BOMBED with Wave 2 cases, 'cause for the deluxes, that's still about all I'm seeing at 90% of the locations I stop in. Only the Targets seem to be keeping up with anything in ample supply for the deluxe class stuff beyond Wave 2.

    Just FYI - I also saw a HA Sideswipe in the Hoover Toys 'R Us on Sunday afternoon, but he's probably long gone by now. So he's at least been spotted in that area, nonetheless. They may have more soon.

    Picked up deluxe class Jolt from the Hoover TRU. It was the only one there though but it was the only proof I saw of the new wave so I'm going to take that as a good sign.

    Also, I have extra Leader Class Jetfires if anyone needs one. I'm in the Birmingham area.
