    Chambersburg Walmart
    A few potp wave 2 deluxes
    A lifetime supply of Elita and Hun-gurrr
    A few Cindersaur and Outback

    Chambersburg Target
    1 Inferno
    1 Rodimus Unicronus
    No sign of Cyberverse Shockwave

    Chambersburg Gamestop
    The SP//DR wave of Marvel Legends. Doc Ock, Kaine, and Spider-Man were missing.
    They had some of the Venom pops, PS4 Spidey pops, and (new?) Power Ranger pops. Goldar looks cool.

    Didn't even know there was a new wave of the Rangers coming. I picked up Lord Zedd from Chambersburg GameStop. Thanks for the heads up!

    Target Plymouth Meeting. Transformers stuff moved to the other end of it's aisle, almost didn't see it.
    They had 1 Inferno, 1 each of Leader Optimus, Rodimus, and Rodimus Unicronus.
    They had some of the wave 3 Prime Masters. The ones left after I grabbed my 3 were Megatronus and I think Solus (whichever 2 aren't Bludgeon, can't remember offhand).
    No POTP Deluxes that I saw. 1 Studio Series Starscream and some Cyberverse stuff, including an Optimus and Megatron. Not sure the size class as I haven't been paying attention to the line but boxed and sitting on the one shelf.

    Hey local peeps! I'm currently organizing my collection to sell off a large portion of it. Over the years I've lost focus on my tf/toy collecting and would like a fresh start. Plus, the extra space would help too! I want to offer things up to local folks first to save on shipping and time. I started selling on Ebay, but I just don't have the time for it anymore. I'm located north of Pittsburgh, right near the Mills Mall. Once I have everything organized/photographed, I'll be making a list on the 'Items for Sale and Trade' forum. Pretty much all series and some 3rd party. If there is something particular that you guys are looking for, feel free to pm me. Or you can wait for the list, and hopefully I have some stuff people are interested in. There are probably a few hundred bots that will be looking for a new home. :)

    Definitely interested in the 3rd party stuff. Although I’m across the state.

    I'm kind of surprised at how many people seem to be selling their collections, myself included (shameless plug in my signature).
    For me it's just a need to focus and ditch the "Gotta Catch 'em All" mentality.

    Anyway, Shippensburg Walmart still has Outback and Cindersaur, and one PotP Jazz.
    Chambersburg Target has nothing new. Did see a Lemmy (black Rod) Prime, but that was it for new stuff.

    It has been happening a lot lately. For me, I was a completionist when I was younger. Buying just to buy. Now I realize that, like many have said, I want to focus my collection. The majority of my CHUG collection will soon be up for sale. Animated and TFPrime are safe. Bayverse will be trimmed substantially.

    Edit: also gonna ditch my marvel legends (or give them to my son) and pop figs.

    Carnegie Walmart: 2x Rippersnapper, 2x Blackwing, 2x Slag, 1 Grimlock, 1 Inferno. Nothing else POTP. Nothing noteworthy for Studio Series - Prime, Starscream, Stinger, Crowbar.

    I wish Hasbro had not called it Studio Series. The initialism for that makes me uneasy.

    EDIT: I almost forgot...someone in the Pgh are is selling a Generations Metroplex on Facebook Marketplace for $30, I think it was. I don't know if it's complete or still available. But I don't have the funds and I'd rather a collector or customizer get it instead of a scalper.

    Just equate the initials with maritime stuff, like the S.S. Stinger.

    Well despite some nut job shooting up on of my local Wal-Mart's a couple days ago, I checked it out last night and it was business as usual. Meaning just PotP Dlx Wave's 1-3. So I made my trip there worth while but grabbing a IW Blu-ray and some snacks.

    I've been wasting gas ever since word spread about Novastorm and frankly I'm already tired. So maybe I'll just wait for Target.

    Wow.. I figured it would be that one.

    I feel like if they made the place nicer, people might treat it better (but that’s putting a lot of unwarranted faith in people).

    If anyone near Pittston needs a POTP Rippersnapper, Snarl or Moonracer, there is one of each at Walmart. Nothing else new
