    New sightings today...
    KMart Prime/Jetfire giftset at West Bend KMart, bought one, left one
    TF Universe Depthcharge...Four at Watertown Wal-Mart, bought all four for DTF (if you don't know, your not a member)
    Landfill...found on shelf at Watertown WM, NOT PURCHASED. Had a gal pull them to the back. I don't want to see any of the managers there fired (yes, it can happen).

    Found three Sea² Teams (finally, able to get one!) at the G-TRU in Appleton. No Emergency² Teams, though.

    WOW beatnik sorry to hear that!
    My wal-mart had plenty when I got there, and didn't look like they were moving very quickly.

    Got mine easily enough--hit the Appleton East Wal-Mart time enough before six am. (I'm a PARANOID psychotic completist) :)  Had time to count 'em (there were 156 on the pallet) and get bored for...mm, twenty minutes or so. Didn't have to fight for 'em...I picked up five, 'only' keeping two. $15 each was sweet enough, but when you've access to an employee discount card, it's even sweeter. :D

    I got mine at 6 am, there were a ton.
    I just picked up a second for MIB, and there were still a good 15 left.
    I am sure this is the case in many places, even in WI ;)

    Hey Poe.. sorry to hear that. Makes you wonder if a place like Brian's Toys or a big scalper came in and scooped them all up. I'm up in MN for the holiday and there were plenty (50+) at the Walmart I stopped at. I did the rounds at Target and TRU.. no Energon. Other than the exclusives at Target, the selection of Star Wars toys was pretty shitty up here too.

    First, Pimpimus, I hope you enjoyed my fair state :) 
    Second, you raise a great point. Bigbadtoystore is based in WI, after all... :eyebrow

    Walmart west in Madison had 2 Energon Primes this morning. They wanted $39.67. Needless to say, I didn't get him.

    I didn't see Ironhide or Treadbolt.

    ENERGON: Basics & Deluxe

    From Wal-Mart in Appleton WI: Skyblast, Strongarm, Hot Shot, Inferno, Energon Saber, Battle Ravage, and Rapid Run.

    Plenty to go around, apparently...so I'm having my better half pick up another five of Battle Ravage.

    ...what? CLONES, people, freakin' CLONES!!

    ...well, DUH.

    And what other deluxes? Starscream? Silverwynde didn't see him or any others (so far as I know). I'm a hair away from going there myself instead of waiting the three hours to pick her up.

    ...no Signal Flare. (Yeah, I'm mildly disappointed, too.) Silvy was evidently overexcited when she called and thought that she snagged one of 'em.
    With Brian harping on about 'other' deluxes, I decided to go on my own. Picked up my extra five BRs instead of having Silvy put 'em on her cc during her break. She's certainly got ample opportunity to...mm...look in their direction, I suppose; the display is right by register 1, which she seems to have been manning all day.

    Dunno what you're on about, Brian--DVD's page sez it's not the first anyone's seen of Rapid Run along with Hot Shot and Inferno.
