    I went on an Alt. run yesterday, here's the most up to date info:

    Creston, IA Walmart: No Alts, does not stock them (argh!)

    Super Targets along 35 up to Ankeny: LOTS of Windchargers, a few Swindles and Ravages, I found 1 Grimlock and 1 Shockblast (both I purchased)

    Walmart in Ankeny: 4 Sideswipes, 1 Silverstreak, 1 Windcharger. I knew they had to have more but no one would check the back for me, I'm still keeping my eye out for Wheeljack...

    Also, almost all of these places were stocked full of Energon still, this is in no short supply...

    Hope this helps someone!

    Still plenty of Windchargers at the Super Targets on 35 between Ankeny and Creston, a few Battle Ravages and Swindles. I picked up an extra Shockblast at one of the targets if anyone wants it. Just PM me, we'll work a deal out.

    the Davenport TRU today had Cybertron and from the looks of it they had them out atleast a day before I got there. Supreme Starscream, Crupplezones, a Jetfire, a Landmine, and a Dirtboss were all that was left after I finished up. No new Alts yet.

    Cybertron is finally out in Cedar Rapids. Toys R Us put them up on the shelves just this morning. No Basics or Ridiculously Large Strascream yet, but all the other size classes are there.

    Actually, the Leaders might be gone by now. When I got there at around 2:00 all they had left was one Optimus and one Megatron. When I left all they had left was Megs. :D 

    I also grabbed the last Hot Shot. Sorry. :p

    Hey guys,

    There's a ridiculously huge stack of Rumbles and Ravages at the walmart on John Deere Rd, Moline IL. Its seriously more Alts than I've ever seen in a single location and they're all the R and R's.

    The Davenport, Iowa Wal Mart on Hickory Grove had a couple of Rumbles and Ravages the other day as well, Leemon. Didn't see any Devs though...That store needs to update a little more, whether or not it's smaller.

    The Wal-Mart next to the Coral Ridge Mall in Coralville IA (right off I-80) has a few (about 6 or 7) Rumble and Ravage Alternators in their clearance Isle for 10.00 bucks apiece, hope it helps.

    I found a bunch of G1 deco Jazz and Starscream at the Target in Davenport Iowa (5 minutes over the Illinois border). There must have been at least 8 of each on the end cap display. I also picked up the last leader class Brawl.
