    With the passing of TRU, I'm happy to find any new locations carrying Transformers. That bunch of Prime Masters (Wave 1 or otherwise) is the largest group I've found locally.

    At around 1:30pm today, 185th Target had 2 PotP Rodimus Primes, 2 Starscreams, and 2 Grimlocks
    also some studio series stuff but I don't even know what's worth noting from that series

    Not really Transformers related, but the Diecast Voltron Lions that can combine are showing up at Ross for a mere $5.99 a lion. I have seen them in Ross downtown Salem and Northlancaster. Toys R us are now emptied in Salem, with merely only having most of the Sharper Image RC Toys and the giant Power Rangers Megazords.

    Cindersaur and Outback have been up on HTS since Saturday night. Rodimus Unicronus is also available. I want an Outback but can't justify the shipping cost for a $10 figure, nor is there enough of other items I want to push me into free shipping.

    Stopped by Walmart in Salem, Northlancaster, there are about 4 POTP Grimlocks and magically, 4 Infernos if you dig that. As of right now, I am debating if I am getting it. No other TF to note in significance.

    Nioce! Signed up for Hasbro emails for a 20% off code with an alternate email, ordered them both and threw in legends Chop Shop... Boom! 3 legends for retail: $30.98. :) 

    Would've preferred to throw in Studio Lockdown and Jazz with the 2 new legends also for free shipping and the 20%. Another time, another deal. :p

    Stopped by Walmart in Salem, Turner, right next to Lowes. Spotted the same as Northlancaster with A few POTP Grimlocks and Inferno. Have Beachcomber, Tailgate, Skrapnel, Windcharger and mini-raptor Dino, as well as the Duocons. The Primemasters are also there if you're in to that and the deluxe Studio Series.

    Wonder if they will release this same scale for the '84 version. I'd love to have that mold as diecast!

    Thanks for the heads up man. Like what I mentioned above, Inferno is on both Turner and Northlancaster Walmarts but no deluxes.

    Nah man, If I am getting a Voltron, for that price, might as well be not a Lego, but thanks for the info.

    That Voltron is awesome! Out of my price range, but very cool though.

    I thought the LEGO pricing is actually really good given the complexity, it being a licensed property, Lego Ideas sets being more expensive from having details painted on the pieces instead of using stickers, and the usually higher quality Lego Ideas instruction/info book. Still cheaper than the Soul of Chogokin GoLion that I regret canceling my pre-order on (it should be telling that the price is still going up on that set while SoC Daizyujin/MMPR Megazord took forever to sell out and even lasted long enough to get discounted). Though I was able to piece together the recent Classic Voltron for right around $100.

    Between the LEGO Voltron and the Super Mini-Pla one, I'm probably gonna sell off the Classic Voltron, though. Has the market hit peak Voltron yet?

    Looks like Walmart in woodburn and Lancaster are filled up with wave 1 deluxes and lots of grimlocks.
