    Finally got a G1 Hot Rod @ VA Beach Lynnhaven Walmart. First TF I've taken out of the box and '''played" with in years. Lots of my stuff going up on eBay soon (user: godify). Resisting urge to search Walgreens for Wreck-Gar.

    Same. And I've saved a lot of money plus made some selling. I don't think I'm completely out of the game, but it's a relief not having to track down every figure (and worse - perfect package condition since I'm the MISB collector).

    Oh forgot to post that last week in the Powhatan Walmart I found SS orange Lockdown and SS bug Bumble. Also found the orange Lockdown at Midlothian Walmart along with Potp Inferno. Otherwise nothing new other Midlothian had only G1 Hot Rods and no Starscream. Did see a legends/scout class Slipstream but I'm pretty sure no one here cares about Cyberverse.

    Found and purchased my final PotP figure: two PotP Wreck-Gars at the Parham Rd Walgreens. Bought one, left one behind.

    And now, my watch has ended.

    Where does Target keep their Neca figures?

    I found a Neca Fugitive Predator figure in the Star Wars section, but I couldn't find a Predator or Neca section in the toy department.

    The Walgreens in Chesapeake at
    1200 Greenbrier Parkway
    Chesapeake 23320
    Had 4 Wreck-Gars. I bought 2 and left 2 on the shelves. The Walgreen website will tell you which store near you has them in stock. IMG_20181031_190656.jpg

    The Walgreens in Centreville had a single Wreck-gar on shelf. I didn't buy it.

    Walgreens is one of the few stores that still has 20oz Coca Cola under 2 dollars. 7-11 has them for 2.09 a bottle. Highway robbery.

    Unfortunately that is not true. The website shows the inventory level of all of the figures under that sku level; so basically all of the transformers deluxe figures plus the two pack legends pack in some cases. It is still very much a call and hope you get a straight answer or go look at the shelf and see situation.

    This morning I found three Wreck-Gars at the Walgreens on the corner of Brookland Park Boulevard and Chamberlayne Avenue in Richmond. I bought one and left the other two.
