Found one Leader Jetfire at the Wal-Mart on 55 bypass towards Fuquay, needless to say they now have 0. Awesome figure, what a wobbly head though!

I saw several unopened boxes of Movie Leader Wave 2 (Jetfire) at the Burlington Wal-Mart. I just wish they wiould go on sale. $45 is more than I want to pay for the new leaders.

They should have one Jetfire left at Wal-Mart in Burlington (Huffman Mills Rd). I snagged the other. All I have to say is that him and Prime combined is pretty Epic. Not 100% movie accurate, but still friggin' epic.

^ Nice finds guys. I checked out the following places today:
New Bern Ave. Walmart - The only thing new on the pegs were the next wave of ROTF Legends class figures, so Mudflap, Grindor, Fallen, although the endcap is now gone and the deluxe/voyager pallet is selling out fast, which is a good sign.

New Hope Church Walmart - Found one Dune Runner, which I picked up. No Scalpel or . Same for their pallet, and the new legends wave was out too, although they did have the red Legends class Ironhide that the other one didnt have (now I wish they had done a Topkick Voyager in RED), and an Animated Shockwave was in the Animated stock. Too bad Animated isn't on sale, because if you're missing him, I highly suggest getting him.

Costco - Leader Class Optimus Prime and Megatron for $35.99. Huge pallet by the front door. I wonder if that's been posted in news yet. They also had the Wii Fits for $79.99, so good deal.

Triangle Town Center Target - Nothing new to report. Same end caps, and not much selection leftover. One Fallen, and that was about it.

Knightdale Target - (By this point, you can pretty much tell the route I took to get around Raleigh) - One Stratosphere (MINE NOW!!) found. And one end cap with three Leader Megs and TEN Superions. So if you were looking for him, thats where to get him.

So no Jetfires found (which is okay for me for now..I'll wait for a bit), but a lot of good deals.

I finally scored a Scalpel!! It was at my local WM here in Rocky Mount.


I also got a Universe Sharkticon at Family Dollar!!


Not Transformers, but Target here had the new GI Joe movie figs on sale, so I grabbed a Snake Eyes.


And also not Transformers (forgive me, I'm just having an excited nerd fit right now) but I got the AOTC wave of the new Star Wars figures at WM in Zebulon last night.

No worries JetsAndHeels, I've been looking for that AOTC wave and the new GI Joe figs. How's the Snake Eyes? He and Stormshadow are the only ones I'm really looking for.

Jangonate,

The funny thing about those AOTC figs is that I had to get the case of figs off a pallet and open it myself. I love the wave though...the Obi Wan is probably my favorite out of the wave, plus Jango Fett (but he is pretty much the same Jango from the evolutions set).

The Snake Eyes is a pretty solid figure. He's got good articulation and alot of accessories (actually too many if you ask me). Overall not a bad figure.


I am like you, I really only want those 2 (I may go get SS tomorrow).

I took a pic of the Snake Eyes before I opened him, just for proof:
