Universe : Tankor and Obsidian found at K-mart in St. Albans Wv on 10-28-03. I picked up the only set they had.

Oh hell yeah - its a WV sighting....and no, I didn't find someone with a full mouth of teeth, if thats what you're thinking.

Bridgeport Wal-Mart:

Energon Unicron
Alternator Smokescreen
Energon Prime
Universe Tankor/Obsidian
Armada Minicons on clearance for $5
Armada Jetfire/Tidal Wave clearance for $19
(looks like a lil' ol' reset is coming in the next day or so)

Bridgeport Target:

Alternator Smokescreen
Energon deluxes and basics
Energon Tidal Wave
Energon Ultra Magnus
Energon Ironhide
Energon Jetfire
Energon Prime
Armada PL Super Prime - clearance $29
Armada Tidal Wave/Thundercracker - clearance.

Bridgeport TRU:

TONS of reissues
Little to no Energon
Armada Supercons

And that should just about completely resurrect this dead thread. Boo-yah!!!!

Roanoke Convoy · 12-28-2003, 09:13 PM

Bridgeport K-Mart:

6 - 7 of the Prime/Jetfire Armada combo packs.

Armada bonus packs (supercon/minicon team)

No Energon

Pretty stingy selection - needs a reset very badly.

Roanoke Convoy · 01-03-2004, 08:20 PM

Last WV sighting for quite awhile, I imagine.....except for everyone sighting ME getting the hell outta this state tomorrow!!!

Clarksburg/Bridgeport Wal-Mart:

Energon Scorponok, Prime, Tidal Wave, Unicron, pegged tfs. Section looks like 100% complete, total crap. No Magnus there - seems to be shortpacked or something - lots of Tidal Waves floating around.

Bridgeport Target:

Armada PL Prime w/ Corona Sparkplug - $20
Armada Tidal Wave - $12.49
Armada Thundercracker - $9.49

Lots of Energon Tidal Waves.

Bridgeport TRU:

Lots of Armada Unicrons (1 is loose & complete inside box - why they took it back is beyond me). Small amounts of Energon, lots of Armada. Still lots of reissues (up to date w/Smokescreen).

Oh, and no KB g1 Spychangers to be found......big shocker there.

Ironhide · 01-17-2004, 11:38 PM

Walmart- Galiopolis, Ohio: Alternator Smokescreen. None left

Target- Charleston Wv, Gorridor G: 3 Alternator Smokescreens left. Tons of other energon figures.

TRU- Charleston Wv, Corridor G: Energon Unicron (the real deal) 9 left.

About time I found this thread and realized that I wasn't the only WV TF fan. I be from Logan County, by the way. But anyways:

I came across 2 different decks of these in the playing cards section in the toys at Charleston Target today. They were in red and black cases and each had their own transforming holographic card: Megatron and Optimus Prime. Sadly though, there are not 54 different TFs on each card (52 playing cards and 2 jokers), but rather 13 TFs that appear in all four different suits, but stay with the same number. Here's the list of the characters:

Joker #1 - Autobot symbol
A - Omega Supreme
2 - Warpath
3 - Scavenger
4 - Smokescreen
5 - Optimus Prime
6 - Thrust
7 - Soundwave
8 - Perceptor
9 - Kickback
10 - Inferno
J - Megatron
Q - Beachcomber
K - Long Haul
Joker #2 - Decepticon symbol

The best part is that you can get these at Target for $1.89 a pack. Since Optimus and Megatron were the only 2 different covers I saw, I got both. Anybody ever found decks with just Season 1 or 3 characters?

And to Ironhide, Pinkdoors, and Roanoke Convoy.....any of you come acrross a HOC Optimus w/ axe, PLEASE help a fellow WVer out.

Roanoke Convoy · 01-24-2004, 10:22 PM

Lets see....

Morgantown Rite-Aid:

HOC Wave 4 -
Autobot Espionage Team
Wheeljack
Perceptor
Gigatron

Roanoke Convoy · 01-25-2004, 05:05 PM

Only 1 stinkin Alternator in town - @ TRU. And its Smokescreen.

TRU didn't have jack for selection - tons of Armada, and the same old, opened box, loose-inside Unicron I saw last month when I was here. Sad situation. But if you're looking for Armada Smokescreen or Cyclonus, this is the place to be - they have 9 pegs full of them....and only them.

Clarksburg/Bridgeport K-Mart:

All Jetfire/Prime combos are GONE.
Fair bit of Armada left - minicons, PL Red Alert, PL Jetfire, Tidal Wave.....
and Armada Megatron. Go figure. Also had a good bit of the Bonus Packs (supercon w/minicons) - Hot Shot and Sideways w/varied minicon teams. Very little Energon.

Wal-Mart:

wiped out selection on everything that is Energon - several Primes and Deluxes left, but other than that, looks like a tornado touched down there. Armada minicons on clearance $4, Double packs $7, PL Jetfire/Tidal Wave $13, Scavenger/PL Red Alert $11, and Jumbo ass Prime $21.

Now hopefully this doesnt get deleted again.

Found Energon Megatron At Wal-mart in Crosslanes Wv. Only had 2 ,and I bought one. Also they have the Spychangers 2 packs.

Wal-mart in Charleston Wv, has the Universe Prowl, Sideburn, and Ruination figures, as well as all new Energon figures.

I found the KB exclusive Spychangers about 3 weeks ago, and just this past Saturday (3-27-04) I found at Charlestons Toys R Us the Ramjet with bonus Minicon Set. They have about 4 Sets left if anyone is looking for it.
