#2603 | | Not good enough for G1! Join Date: Jun 2006 Posts: 1,031 Location: Stillwater, Mn Collection Count: 150+ | The Target in Stillwater, Mn has all of the pegs in place (with prices attatched), but no toys (what-so-ever!) are out on the salesfloor. According to a friend that works there, they had them out on the floor a few days ago, but pulled ALL of them back into the warehouse (even the deluxes!!!!), and have them 'roped' off with signs saying not to put out until the 2nd!
Why, oh, WHY couldn't I have gone there a few days ago?!?!?!  | |

I've checked EP, Brooklyn Center, Brooklyn Park, St Louis Park, and no non-Proto deluxes to be seen. Although there was one French-Canadian Starscream mixed into one of the batches, that was kinda interesting.

#2605 | | Omnibot Join Date: May 2007 Posts: 294 Location: Oakdale, MN | Hey Guys! New Member here. Well not that new I've looked at this site for at least a year or so and just now joined, anyway Target on 94/White Bear has leader class Optimus Prime not the RoboVision yet, also yesterday I talked this hot Asian chick at the Woodbury Walmart to sell me the movie figures. She had to manually type in TF's and the price for each item I'm not even sure how much the 2 pack was supposed to cost I just told her they were 19.76 each. It was a big hassle but worth it. I bought Blackout, Starscream, Ironhide and the BB/ Barricade 2 pack. | |

Brooklyn Park Target has the Real Gear stuff (I Bought "Laserbeak"), the Fast Action Battlers (Man they look like the bastard children of the Battle Chargers and the Playschool Go-Bots), The Starscream arm gun thingie, and the Prime Helmet (all I have to say there is Fugly!)
Champlin Super Target is where you guys need to go for your Deluxe needs. (WTF is up with the robot modes on these. Some of them I would have actually bought based on car mode, but then you see the Robot and it's Bwarrrfffff!!!!!)
Now if you will excuse me I need a shower, even being around those things makes me feel unclean | |

I was at the Target at 5:55, and there were absolutely no transformers at all, just empty shelves. I grabbed the only movie figure (Barricade) at the Walmart, and I also found a lone Bonecrusher at the Target on Lake St. in Minneapolis. Nothing else new there. | |

#2610 | | Twitchy Triggerbot Join Date: Jun 2005 Posts: 1,023 Location: Hopkins, MN | What I found on my Memorial Day shopping:
Knollwood Target: Bonecrusher & Swindle
Knollwood Steve & Barry's: G1 t-shirts of Optimus & Megs, Dreamwave art, 8 bucks apiece, two for 12.
Bloomington TRU: Titanium 3-inch G1 Ops & Bumblebee 2-pack and the Super Soaker
Bloomington WalMart: Unleashed Bumblebee Statue & a few of those Starscream transforming... gun... things...
Also, Targets are starting to get the TF-labelled Pepsi products.
EDIT: Bloomington WalMart also has plenty of Classics Constructicons, if anyone's still looking.
