    And I found Grimlock at Target on Miller Park right after that.
    And now that I have him I have to say I have seen him twice today, at Target and Meijer in Oak Creek.

    Get him, he's totally worth it! I got him and he's awesome!

    Wausau Target got POTP wave 1 deluxes, voyagers and leaders. Passed up on them all. Thinking about stopping after TR line. Just gonna focus on the Takara Legends that are getting released this month and March then call it good. Not really feeling the POTP line because it's too much like CW.

    Off topic but if anyone in the Brookfield/Milwaukee area wants an SNES Classic, Target near 124th and Bluemound has one left.

    Edit: On-topic, they also had every PotP, including Leaders and Voyagers.

    Was at Wausau Target, looks like someone picked up both the Wave 1 POTP Leaders. Saw a bunch of wave 1 POTP deluxes, 2 POTP Grimlocks and 3 POTP SS. I bought the lonesome Vector Prime.

    Bridge Street Walgreens got the Cloudraker & Wingspan 2 pack on sale for $11.99. 2 at the Bridge Street store, they're a little more tempting now that they're cheaper.

    Found RID Combiner Force Saberhorn/Bisk and Grimlock/Prime at the Brown Deer Rd. Walmart.

    Grabbed Saberclaw, but I'm pretty sure they're not supposed to be selling them yet. Manager had to run it as a special transaction (charged me slightly less it seems, too). Left behind both Primelocks and 1 Saberclaw.

    [Is this the first reported US retail sighting? If so, does anyone know how I can score a News Credit?]

    Took advantage of the $12.99 deluxe and 10% off of other TFs at Target. Too bad they didn't have Slug. Got Swoops, Grimlock and Slash.

    Anyone seeing any Wave 2 POTP’s around yet? I haven’t (nor any non-Rodimus Leaders Which is kinda annoying me.)

    Not yet.

    If you're looking for Leader Optimus, though, are you in the Greater Milwaukee area? I've seen him at several Walmarts and Targets (though no sign of Roddy Unicrony, frustratingly).

    I saw Rodimus (and Prime) in Tomah Walmart, but it was an easy pass for me. Not fond of the way that figure looks. Prime seems ok.

    Oh my gosh, I'm really sorry. I double checked and it was in Singapore not US. Good job on the news credit!
