    Went to Southridge TRU and actually found stuff!!! I found wave 1 of beast hunter deluxes. FoC Voyager Soundwave and cassette guys. I didn't get a chance to check for Soundblaster cause the aisle was kind of full. I picked up Lazerback who isn't bad.

    Checked Southridge Target and Walmart tonight. Nothing. I don't think Walmart has restocked since Christmas it looked that bad.

    Went to Southridge Target and found 4 of the 5 Combaticons. They were missing Blastoff I believe.

    No I left them there. If I buy those molds it will probably be the G2 ones

    Saw deluxe Generations UM today for the first time. In West VA! It was the last deluxe out of the case at my local Walmart. If I had seen Kickback, I might have actually bought him.

    still nothing from the new waves in Morgantown, at least not at the University Towne Center Walmart and Target. All Walmart had was some cyberverse, some botshots and the weaponizers (still at full price) and a whole bunch of empty pegs. the power rangers samurai stuff was invading the Transformers peg section as well.

    Target was better, cause they actually had stock, but it was all PRID Knockout, Bumblebee and a few vehicons in addition to botshot stuffs. They did have 1 thundertron and 1 ultra magnus though, as well as 2 voyager starscreams. Powerizers as well, also full price. Only FoC stuff was Prime and Jazz.

    There has been next to nothing sighted on shelves in the Charleston area since before Christmas, lol...

    But if you visit the tru at Southridge, you may stumble across the occasional Generations toy from 2011, freshly returned by the employee who bought all their GDOs and then returned old toys under the same dcpi to get his cash back!

    Another one of the great reasons I hate that TRU, and I know Southridge Walmart has been a disaster area for quite some time.

    Yeah, WM is a dead zone.

    And TRU will always be the Province of Spectacles McPointy Goat the Ebay King, Fluffy Beard the Wide, Sir Anorexicus the Bribed, and Refusit the Service Desk Terror, who shall ever war against petty shoppers for new Transformers toys in their lands...

    only new noteworthy stuff at the University Town Center Target was that vehicle set wiht legends smokescreen and the apex armor with green Breakdown. there was also that new botshots Prime and bumblebee, but other than that, everything else on the pegs was nothing new. though they did have a Thundertron, but i already got him before the holidays.

    Distribution is total crap again around here. Generations wave 2 just barely eeked out a presence at Target Southridge for a couple of weeks and that's the only "new"(actually months old!) release we have seen since August.

    Made the rounds at Southridge today. TRU had nothing. Target had Wave 1 Beast Hunters Deluxes, FoC Soundwave and Soundblaster and cassettes. Walmart had some of the FoC combaticons, magnus, sideswipe, and 1 starscream, which I bought.
