    Sun Prairie Walmart - Judging by the amount of wave 2, they might have gotten Arcee.. but didn't have any when I stopped after work.

    Madison east Walmart - nadda. They don't have very many basics or deluxes.. at least compared to the west side store.

    Madison east Target - King Atlas and Glow-bots are still there. Nothing else to report. Where's the new Star Wars cups damnit?

    There ain't new shit anywhere...

    Well,Really old shit at the KB in west Bend.

    They had RiD Megatron, and Galvatron for 12 dollars a piece. boxes were torn to hell, but the toys were fine.

    PL redalert also on markdown.

    but yeah, I may have to go to some of the northern county Walmarts (Manitowoc, Sheboygan, Kohler) to possibly find ANYTHING new, since my wlamarts have jack and shit...

    Fond du Lac Wal-mart is low on a lot of stuff but I don't expect them to do much restocking until they are done making it a super wal-mart. Not sure when it will be done.
    When is Alt. Hound suppose to come out?

    Jack and Shit... you could use a repainted Armada Wheeljack and Smokescreen :) 

    Madison east Target: 2 Skydive and 2 King Atlas

    g1 wheeljack: you're not alone. Most of the Walmarts I've been to have had very little stock and/or lots of old crap.

    Well guys I just got back from a whirlwind trip to Milwaukee (My Grandpa had a Tripple Bypass) and I hit EVERY Target and Wal-Mart on 94 and there is nothing new between there and Minneapolis. :(

    I had to go to a wedding near Janesville today so I did the rounds down there. The selection down there is worse than Madison. The only thing I found of interest was two King Atlas at the Target down there.

    On a non-TF related note, the Walmart down there had the latest wave of TMNT figures, including the baby turtles, as well as the new GI Joe figs with the Baroness. I haven't seen either up here in Madison yet.

    lol.. I'm still wondering why I'm trying so hard to find him. I don't even like the toy. Then again, it could be the fact that I have't seen anything new in so long. DAmnit.. where the hell is Arcee? I really want her.

    You guys aren't missing much. Energon Mirage is, so far, the worst toy in energon. His soundbox and hyperpower gimmick make up about half the toy(neither are impressive). In bot mode, his entire chest is wide open, if you look at him from the sides. Nothing holds his arms/shoulders in place, his legs spin very freely(if they don't fall off first).

    If nothing else, i'd wait a bit, and see if hasbro addresses some of the floppy joints.

    That's very different from the wet dreams the people at the Allspark seem to be having over this toy. Then again, those same people seem to get wood every time a new toys comes out, crappy or not. I might just wait for the repaint.

    ATTENTION PEOPLE...I HAVE FOUND DEMOLISHER.

    thought you'd like to know.

    they were rearranging the TF section this morning, and I saw a box of the new deluxes, and they were gonna go back into overstock in the back room, however, I snagged the only Demolisher I could see.

    I'm SURE there might be a Mirage arcee and insecticon in back there somewhere since well, there';s a shitload of old stuff still clogging the shelves.

    Now to play the waiting game for Arcee and insecticon
