    Sorry for the late reply. Looks like it will be mid January before we get them... I was hoping for sooner. I just got the Voyagers today and finished processing them. Down to 1 Grimlock and 8 Starscreams left.

    At this point, I already decided to buy Swoop on ebay.
    I bought the last grimlock at Soco. Usually only takes the TRUs about a week to restock on voyagers though. So maybe next week then.

    I'm at Sunset right now and I don't even see those deluxes anymore. Darn it, I was hoping to find that grimlock here.

    well got a little luck. Stopped in at the Arnold Walmart, Only the Movie leaders were on clearance @ $35......but there was this lone sixshot that didnt scan at the price checker. I had an employee look it up and it came home with me for $20!

    Grabbed a Breakaway on clearance at Target. It didn’t have a tag but I figured I would check to see if he was on clearance. Sure enough he was. Just because you don’t see a tag doesn’t mean the figure you want isn’t on clearance. Just a heads up for anyone interested. Now to find a Broadside on clearance and I think I’m pretty much set for Titans Returns.

    Thanks I was able to grab rodimus and Optimus from the Bridgeton Target.

    Finally after so many years I finally have a rodimus prime. Always wanted him as a kid and today I feel like my childhood has been complete

    Sweet. Were they on the floor r in back? Typically the stock filters through all the state Targets pretty swiftly so CoMo and Jeff should be this week.

    I went to the Mexico rd Target today(12/31) which said they had some in stock as well, but the associate could not find them in the back. The product was signed in around 3:30am and did not have a stock location in the back. She did inform me they plan on putting out the product on Jan. 7th so that is a date to look forward to.

    St Joseph Target has a case, but it's in the back and a supervisor wouldn't let the guy I ask get it for me because they can't sell it before the set date or some other bs. Which annoyed me so I gave them a bad review, but it got a more helpful manager to reply to me about it so maybe I can still get them later if this one actually bothers to look.

    Yeah Jan 7th is just the new floor set, it's not a street date for the product from Hasbro.

    Forgot to post yesterday that St. Peter's Target has some Shufflers and Repugnii on clearance. They also had the new Springer toy if any of you are looking for that:

    Samething happened at Osage Beach Target, guy went in the back for a full 3-4 min before he came back and said he couldn't find them, but gave the number to the Columbia Target and the nice lady went stright to the back was back in a few minutes with the case of voyagers. Also Columbia TRU has 2 POP Stars cream but at $5 more

    Yea Columbia target folks have been great. When I had them first grabbing the deluxes from the back the manager who’d had to go dig on the pallet talked to me about his old jazz figure he found when moving.

    Picked up leader Optimus Prime from Columbia Target this morning. Looks like someone had already snagged the Rodimus as the the worker said Optimus was all that was left in the box. However, according to Brickseek these things are popping up all over so shouldn't be hard to find.

    Kirkwood Target has a case of the leaders, but with no location set on the DPCI, they don't know where the box is pull it for me. I guess I'll have to wait and try my luck next week.
