    TRU Asheville had 1 FoC Soundwave and a ton of data disc 2 packs, along with the all of the GDO scouts this morning. I left with 3 members of team Bruticus and a GDO Laserbeak. spent the rest of the morning looking for Brawl and Blast Off to complete Bruticus to no avail.

    Everything else I saw on my adventure...

    Wal Mart east : nothing
    Target east: FoC wave 1
    K-Mart on Patton: only transformer was a powerizer Megatron
    TRU express: was not even open strangely...

    Had a bunch of errands to run and saw some stuff, none of which I picked up. Target Matthews has one each of all 5 FOC combaticons. Among TJ Maxx and Ross monroe there's a leader sentinel prime for $20, leader bb and ironhide for $22 a piece, an open-box skyhammer for $7 and a couple bha figures on clearance for $4 a piece.

    I think that TRU express was just there for Christmas. That WM on the east side has been a void for so long that I just stopped going by there.

    I imagine those Bruticus members will be popping up at TJ Ross soon enough.

    I picked up the one GDO scout Brawl from TRU with my massive $4 rewards coupon which brought it down to an acceptable scout price of $6.

    Wilmington TRU got in more Wave 1 Voyagers...there were at least 4 Soundwaves and 2-3 Soundblasters when I was there at noon. Nothing else FoC-related other than a few Wave 1 deluxes. No GDOs except a couple Sandstorms, 2 Swerves, and 1 Wheelie. BH Deluxes are in stock, have been for some time (2-3 of each figure at least). Still 2 Prime FE Vehicons left, too.

    I'll keep checking every. single. day. for Grimlock and Blaster >.<

    If anyone in Raleigh needs GDO stuff, go to Triangle Town TRU. Plenty of everything except Wheelie - be aware, most of the deluxe/legends guys are on the back wall of the store with the videogame toys far away from the Action Figure section.

    Durham TRU had a slew of FOC wave 3 deluxes and Beast Hunter deluxes. Nothing special other than that.

    Heard there's a big Hasbro release date for Feb. 12th that includes TFormers, Star Wars, and IM3. Anyone know if the Beast Hunter voyagers are expecting to hit then? If we had DPCI #s and such I'm sure it won't be long before they could be pulled from Target.

    In mid-February I'd expect to see: FoC Voyager Wave 2, FoC Data Disk Wave 2, BH Voyagers, MAYBE Prime Voyager W4R1 w/ Skyquake (BIG maybe), BH Cyberverse and CV Comm., BH CV Vehicles, saturation on Rescue Bots Energize, and several tons of new Bot Shots.

    Basically, I'm not "hunting" for jack for a few weeks :)

    I picked up FoC UM, SS and Swerve from Durham TRU yesterday. There were still quite a few left after I hit them.

    Air Raid and Kickback were gone as of 5:40, but I did notice that they did have the new blind pack Kreons and the Beast Hunters Optimus and Ripclaw sets.

    nothing good at TRU in N.Raleigh today, unless you need the one Voyager sized Soundwave generations figure they had.

    Spoke with an associate at Target today and asked if there was a reset coming for toys soon. They said yes and everything should be done around mid-Feb.
