    As of last night Orem Walmart had a bunch of FABS in stock of almost every movie character. They also had 2 of each: Leader Megatron and Leader Brawl.

    I'm still waiting for the day I walk in to the springville or orem walmart and they are just over stuffed with movie line toys and they are able to keep restocking every night. I know it will happen one day.. By then Ill have everything i want, Im sure lol..

    So AF Target has some of the Movie scouts out, elita one, armorhide and some others. plenty of G1 Starscreams and AF Walmart has restocked all of the Deluxes going back to the June 2nd items, ie: Wreckage, Barricade, Scorponok, Brawl, Swindle and Bonecrusher. Plus 08 BB, Ratchet and Brawl Cyber Slammers. good hunting if your looking for any of these items. Got me a scorponok for kitbashing to match my G1 Headmaster!

    Just the cost of the voyager megs... 20 and I used 3 different color paints at about 2 dollars a bottle. Got a cheap set of nylon brushes for 2 dollars. And then add the time it took, but I really didnt mind as it was really therapeutic lol...

    So about 26 or 30 dollars.

    So just yesterday I was saying how well stocked the AF target was, well obviously the word got out and at 9:30 on my way home I stopped in and they were cleaned out down to only 2 G1 SS repaints. After some discussion with Iheartarcee about the new head sculpt and my thinking he looked like he had horns, and Iheartarcee's opinion that it made him look mean and evil, I decided he was right so I snagged one of them. Thanks dude!

    At the Af Target there weren't any deluxes. Just the 6 or so voyagers that my sale took down to one in less than 24 hrs. they did have a bunch of the new scouts, elita one, armorhide and camo painted plane boy (forget his name) but they were all gone too. The deluxes were all over at the AF Walmart. They had full pegs 2 days ago...

    I got my Voyager Prime from HTS.com as well as legends Blackout and the Cyber Slammer 08' BB (for my son's birthday in Dec) earlier this week. My wife said the Walmart in Syrucuse had all of the first wave deluxes yesterday if anybody is still looking for them. I called the Layton Target about the BB 2-pack and he said they would not have any for a couple weeks. Yeah right.

    Its not in Utah, but I just bought the Star Wars Darth Vader Death Star on Hasbrotoyshop.com for $49.99, with the current promo code: 25FALL
    It gives you free shipping and 25% off everything. I got a bunch of stuff and saved over $50 on the total & $12.50 on Vader alone. That's not counting the tax savings and gas, travel time. Point is, ya'll gotta go see if there is something you want in stock as its cheaper than buying in the store. The code is supposed to work until Oct. 8. :rock

    Went around today to TRU, Target(s) and Wally(s) and it looks as though they all have good selections of almost all Deluxes and Leader Megs n Brawl.

    Voyagers really need to be restocked. Did anybody ever see a Rescue Ratchet or Thundercracker repaint in Utah yet?

    Went to orem target today and they have a good selection of deluxes, (all waves) and target scouts. Looks like things are starting to even out in the transformer toy world... Just need those damned voyagers in stock.

    Saw a Ironhide today, but he was selling for $26.99 and that is just crazy, and he was the only voyager I've seen since I got G1 SS repaint, but none of the others. I bought one before, but sold it to my bro since I wasn't really into him, but now I figure I've got all the other movie characters and then some, I best get him for completeness sake. I know I didn't mention where, cuz I may go get him tomorrow, if I can swallow the price gouging. :scalper
