    No biggie that I missed him, picked one up at the Wal-Mart in Tewksbury yesterday while I had a loaner from my Jeep dealership while they were prepping my new Jeep (Hound, my forest green wrangler finally died).

    Wal-Mart in Pittsfield, MA, has only a Payload, Rescue Ratchet, and Voyager Megatron as notable items. KB and Target are basically cleaned out.

    Sorry, check any of my posts... Western Mass stores are out of stock for the most part too! (At least Southwest Mass.)

    On another note, I hit the Holyoke Mall Target and they had a crapload of G1 deco Jazz and pretty much nothing else, so I snagged one.

    Peabody TRU has the exclusive legends pack but nothing else that hasn't been reported.

    Danvers Target and Wal-Mart have nothing.

    DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES!?

    Salem Target has the new deluxes and Real Gears!

    Picked up a Meantime and the only Dropkick they had there. They still have quite a few Meantime's and Highscores. They also have Nightbeat7 and Wiretapv20.

    Still on the pegs are a Longarm, and Payload, I think there's a Dreadwing there as well.

    Only new deluxe at Salem Wal-Mart is a lone Dreadwing.

    Take a look around your local Targets, you may find something.

    Danvers Target cleaned out of all the new Real Gears.

    Salem Target, on the other hand, has several Night Beats, Wiretaps, and Meantimes left. I shnagged the last Highscore.

    Oh, and they have two Leader Brawls.

    dude, be REAL careful with highscores shoulder pieces. I broke mine right out of the package. the little tabs that hold them on are SUPER thin. took him back today and got the last one at my target. kinda felt like an ass, but them's the breaks.

    So the Woburn Target had some of the new deluxes. Longarm, Dropkick, etc. No concept Bumblebee's though. The onlyh G1 redeco I saw was Jazz, which there was about ten of.

    So I have all the movie figures I wanted after scoring Longarm (I was trying to only buy movie characters but Longarm's alt mode was sort in the movie which will help me sleep at night) in Salem, NH last week so I may not actively go out on a hunt for a while. Well I may not be out also due to recently buying a new car and getting engaged. I'll keep posting if I see something new though.

    I went to the Target in Easton, and they have some of the new Real Gear TFs, I can't remember the names, but is the redeco Booster x10, the video game controller and the wrist watch. Also had a few G1 Jazz and 1 G1 Screamer.

    Target in Taunton had a bunch of G1 Jazz and Screamers. Plus they had these lolli-pop gift pack with "Rock'em Sock'em" G1 Megatron and one with G1 Prime, and each came with a G1 Prime & Megatron lollipop holder.

    Kohl's in Stoughton/Randolph and Taunton are completely picked through. Their toy sections are a disaster.

    Thanks to the Fall River WM tip, I found G1 Ratchet, and Thundercracker. Well worth the trip! Thatnks!

    BTW, they still have several of each, so if you're looking and its not too far for you, check it out!

    No problem, I was surprised myself to see such numbers of them (and they keep putting out more, there were more of them this week than when I first saw them).

    I'm going to check out Dartmouth today, I'll report back if I find anything of interest (unlikely, but you never know).

    Raynham Walmart is as dry as a bone... that is unless you're looking for Optimash Prime or the Optimus helmets... :D 

    Has anyone seen any interesting non-toy TF merch? I've seen the lolli-pop holders at Target, or you can just get the G1 Optimus/Megatron pop-toppers at TRU. Theres a ton of stuff in the linens aisle, various sheets, pillow cases, comforters, throws, pillows, Optimus pillows. How Forty-Year-Old-Virgin would it be if I slept in Transformers sheets! ;-)

    Edit: Also, I forgot, I found some TF placemats with Optimus on them. They were only like $1.59, so I picked a few up. Might be a kick to use 'em, or just use on my desk to write on.
