    Found crap in the Poughkeepsie TRU, Target, K-Mart and Fishkill Walmart concerning CW or the Arcee/Chromia line. TRU im Jefferson Valley had the Scout wave with Powerglide and the group. They all seem freshly stocked with the previous waves and still crammed full of movie line as well. Honestly, wishing Hasbro would have a date set for when to put the figures on the shelves, like they used to. Kinda sucks the East Coast has to wait while West coast has them, in some cases, months in advance

    CW legend has been out in NYC TRU for a while. I have seen them multiple times at brooklyn and queens TRUs. what we have not seen so far whereas Target/walmart already had, are CW limbs, Gen. arcee, Gen brainstorm, Gen Roadbuster, legends Gears/acid storm/Nemesis/cliffjumpber. I have NOT seen anyone of these in any TRU in the city.

    The K-mart in Rotterdam Square Mall had two Thundercrackers, two Windchargers, one Bombshell, and one Powerglide. I snagged the Bombshell, so Powerglide is still there if anyone is in the area.

    I'm an hour west of Rotterdam. Hopefully these will show up at the New Hartford Kmart this week. I've already got Bombshell & just need Powerglide. My Arcee, Chromia & Silverbolt should arrive by Friday from HTS!

    Poughkeepsie TRU gets trucks in Thursday and is the best day for new products to be restocked 2 weeks ago they had put out Combiner Legends class on a Thu I got Bombshell and Powerglide as of this Monday only thing I saw new was a single Voyager Combiner Wars Silverbolt hiding in the shelves. Jefferson Valley/Mahopac TRU still has a few Legends Generations Cosmos if anyone still looking for him I was there Black Friday back in Nov. at 9pm when they stocked about 20 of them. Walmart and Kmart are just crap when it comes to restocking. Target best thing is to do is write down the DPCI #'s and go up to one of those red scanners and punch in the # and it will tell you if its in stock in the backroom thats how I used to pull out hidden Target exclusive Joes back in the day also they have that website where you can type in the DPCI and will say which stores supposedly have it in stock. I'll be in the Albany area this next couple of days and will be looking for TRU Joes and new Combiner Wars figs

    Anyone manage to spot RiD Warrior Drift and Optimus in NYC? I only had time to look at Times Square TRU and Queens Place Target today-- naturally, there was nothing new at either of them. The only Combiner Wars thing I've found for weeks has been Legends Thundercracker, with there being exactly one at Times Square.

    TRU in Time Square has become unreliable when it comes to TFs I want to own. Something tells me I'll have to go straight to pre-ordering them online.

    Tell me about it. You'd think that store would have it all, but it's (an increasingly frustrating) crapshoot!

    I've had surprisingly good luck at the the KMart on 34th even though they barely stock a quarter of an aisle.

    Early winter doldrums! Nothing new at any of the big boxes! On a high note however, I did receive my Arcee, Chromia & Silverbolt from HTS today, so all wasn't a total loss!

    The Silverbolt figure is still there as of today. I was so close to buying it, but I noticed the gun was flopping around inside. The tape looked right, but then you could see a second piece on one side,and also noticed that all the little straps that hold the figure down were missing. I put it back, as I am not interested in buying someones return when I have no idea what is wrong with it. The legends figures I picked up a few weeks ago. Chromia and Arcee I finally went the BBTS route

    Yeah I noticed something was fishy about Silverbolt that he just magically appeared out of nowhere. Do you still need a Generations Skids? I was at Walmart in Danbury, CT. today and surprised to find him there but I noticed someone crushed in the bubble of the package. I know I should post that in CT. sightings but its only 40 mins. from Fishkill.

    Nope, all good up to the latest wave, which is ordered. You actually saved me a trip out there, so maybe I will turn my attention to Newburgh and Nanuet tomorrow, unless you have that all scouted too? :lol
