    Hey everyone! I was invited to check this thread out by @kylash327. I live in Brodhead and tend to find my stuff in either Janesville or Monroe. Nothing too new to report on my end right now, but I figured I'd at least introduce myself. So, hello!

    Well, seen ROTB twice now, liked it more the second time. Make sure to go to AMC and get the HUGE Prime tin they have. Has all free rolling rubber wheels, metal trailer, and smokestack straws. Genius.

    I’m so tempted by this and I just know it’s gonna be a thing that just takes up space.

    Ditto. I suppose it could make for a nice snack caddy for parties or a game room, but I'm going to pass on it. It would just be an inferior redundancy as a display piece with an MP-04 around, and there's no way I would put oily popcorn in that. It's pretty cool that these exist though. The Optimus Primal bucket would be fun for watermelon at cookouts. Chilled monkey brains, anyone?

    As of yesterday evening, there are two animated prowls at the east side Madison Walmart. I left them where I found them, hiding flat on the top shelf.

    I hit up Monona and West Madison Walmarts yesterday, 4 and 5 deep of Leader Galvatrons. I dont expect to see Armada Megs there anytime soon. I did find a pair of Swoop and Scarr at Madison West Target tonight if anyone is looking

    Sun Prairie Wal Mart has a voyager Prime and a properly painted SS 100 on the top shelf in the aisle. Also a bunch of Rhinox and SS Airazor.

    Doesn't seem to be much going on in my area. In the Monroe Walmart, there's some Legacy Wave 3 stuff (a few Skullgrins, I think a Dead End, some Crankcases) a whole lot of Jhiaxus, pretty much just Airazor and 86 Arcee for Studio Series, and Mainline Rhinox and Optimus Prime. Plus the usual Earthspark stuff. It's really stagnated there lately.
    Janesville Target isn't all that different. A pair of those Buzzworthy jungle mission 3-packs, the Optimus nerf guns, a lot of your typical early wave Earthspark and ROTB gimmick toys. I think the most noteworthy figures were Core Starscream and Grimlock.

    I always hate getting into this dead period. Stuff lingers, and anything new you really need to hunt online for. Such is life.

    Sun Prairie Target has Nest Ratchet and Origins Jazz on clearance. Only 25% at the moment, but if you want them and haven’t gotten them, I’d imagine they’re going be gone soonish.
