    Bit of a surprise at Elston Target. I've already got one, so I left it.

    TRU in Bloomington/Normal doesn’t have those 2 Rodimus Ucronuses anymore, the place is a wasteland

    EDIT: Meijer has new stuff though! I got the last moonracer and blackwing, but there’s at least 2 of every other wave 2 POTP deluxe. And it’s buy one get one 50% off!

    EDIT 2: Walmart on Greenbriar brought out their hidden stock of RID figures, so that’s nice (not)

    Target new Lenox had one of each of wave 2 deluxe minus snarl.

    There was a second ripper snapper that is still left with a voyager Grimlock.

    I don't get it. How were you able to get one? I asked at that TRU like 3 days ago if they had any or would get any and they told me they doubt they would or that any others would be getting that stocked since the liquidation sale was hitting soon. Also by chance did you ask if they'd be getting a few more?

    Hey was wondering if anyone would be willing to snag me a Cybertron Battalion Shockwave if they are one? I can pay for shipping and make it worth the while. Walgreens here (stupid Freeport) never move product and chances it getting to my neck of the woods are slim to none.

    The target in Rosemont has all of the Wave 2 deluxes. They’re on sale too. So you can get them for $14.99.

    Was anyone still looking for Mr Fantastic? I found 3 of them at the Walgreens in Deerfield along with 2 Funko Moon Knights and 4 cyber battalion Jetfires

    Have you guys seen any good sales at Toys R Us? Are things crazy there yet? Are shelves barren and depressing? I haven't been since the liquidation announcement on Thursday.

    TFs were 10% off as recently as Friday, the last time I went to one. Lots of TLK Cybertrons around, along with the usual shelfwarmers.

    Stopped at the Peoria Toys R Us and the Bloomington Toys R Us and there’s pretty much nothing at either store. However, one of the workers who works the service desk in the Bloomington Toys R Us said that they were expecting at least 3 more trucks throughout the next 2-3 weeks...

    By the way if you ordered anything from the Walmart.com seller "PRI Goods LLC" that was posted on here a couple weeks back I hope you've contacted Walmart for a refund. Once again if it's too good to be true it probably is... $6.99 sky lynx along with other deals. They marked orders shipped a day after the order was placed but 2 weeks later the tracking still shows up as "USPS awaiting package". Just a heads up in case someone forgot about the order or lost track of it. I read on a few places that people had trouble getting refunds from walmart on items sold by third party sellers before, but after 2 chats with a rep they issued my refund.

    Yeah, I ordered an Astrotrain. Contacted Walmart around noon today, and now I'm the proud owner of a $10 refund. I'm guessing once they hit a certain number of complaints about a seller they get a lot quicker with the resolution.

    Well I'm glad I didn't "donate" 6 bucks to some scumbag for a skylnx. Hope you guys get your refunds and Walmart cracks down on these shady sellers.

    I never asked if they were getting anymore since I got mine. Did you actually have them look it up in the computer to see?
