    North Adams Walmart has quite the assortment of new stuff!

    Studio Series:
    1x Deluxe Scrapmetal (I bought the other one that was there)
    2x Deluxe Shatter
    2x Deluxe Cogman
    1x Leader Jetfire
    1x Leader DotM Megatron

    WfC Siege:
    2x Deluxe Prowl
    2x Deluxe Ironhide
    2x Deluxe Chromia
    2x Deluxe Six Gun

    I'm not interested in any of these waves (except maybe Cogman) so it's fair game!
    No sign of Studio Series Voyager BB Movie Optimus or Rampage, unfortunately, and no WfC Leader Optimus (though I doubt we'll see that here for a while, unlike the ones that have been popping up in the midwest).

    I haven't been able to find Studio Series Optimus, or Soundwave anywhere. If anyone on the north shore side sees either somewhere today, would you mind giving me a heads up? Thanks.

    Well did a run of some stores today. Comically Speaking in Reading has basically sold off the vast majority of their toys. Not a single SW or Joe remaining, all comic books from now on. Only TF was CW Devastator and POTP Blackwing. Comicazi had some loose stuff but only CHUG was Slug and I picked him up. Nick's Comic Strip and Harrison Comics didn't have much CHUG either to be honest. Slim picking all around I have had more luck at Walgreen's. Hoping I can find a Perceptor or Swoop at one

    Walmart in North Reading has the Ravage and Laserbeak Micromasters, as well as the Rescue Patrol. This is the first time I've seen them anywhere.

    Also, Target in Somerville has Battlemasters Pteraxodon and whatever the Decepticon repaint is called.

    Wow! Thanks so much for mentioning this. I didn't really want to go out to Vegas for the thing they were at in March. I have been wanting to see them, so I just got tickets for Fan Expo Boston!

    By chance, has anyone seen Siege Ultra Magnus anywhere between Worcester/Leominster and Boston?

    I'm on the north shore and pretty much every Target I've been to recently has him. I can give you some specific locations, if you want them.

    Yes please! I tried Leominster and Framingham Targets and Walmarts but no luck. For folks interested, both Targets had SS Jetfire and the SS Prime he combines with.

    Last I checked, there were two Ultra Magnus figures at the Stoneham Target and one, or two at the Woburn location.

    No problem. Anything to deplete the stock in the hopes they'll finally put something new out.

    Forgot to post it, but I saw a bunch of the new Rescue Patrol Micros at Hadley Target on Monday.

    Thank you
