    Mckinney Walmart adjacent to Lowes has G1 Gears, G1 warpath, and 5 or 6 Studio Series Rampages.

    as for west Houston, most Walmarts are the same as far as SS.
    dropkicks galore, plentiful amounts of shatter/cogman/scrapmetal. a few rampage here and there. few still have leader jetfire/megatron.

    wave 5 SS...
    I've seen very little wave 5 at Walmart recently. it came and went fast. past week I've seen a single barricade and crankcase at two different locations. my local target (far west) is still loaded with an entire case of wave 5 deluxe. and loads of bonecrusher at most targets. I've seen a just single Voyager prime from that wave recently, those are pretty much sold out everywhere, fast...

    Your area skipped wave 5 too?
    the only wave 5 figures I've found this year are Optimus & Bonecrusher.

    Trypticon is at Ross here in San Antonio now. Found one last night at the Forum Ross. Lady there said that they had gotten five in, I only saw the one.

    I was lucky enough to pick one up a few weeks ago in DFW. Not a bad score for $50.

    Yeah the paint QC could be a little better on my copy, but said and done, it’s a really good score. I have it in city mode at the moment with both overlords in base mode tabbed at each end.

    7E5A6581-2D13-4FF5-8885-B6273FF83D32.jpeg So far have it paired with a couple Overlords I found back when they were popping up at Marshalls. Not sure where I want to store it yet, but for now it’s chilling in city mode in the middle of the office.

    Went by the new Walmart on FM 1093 and they had two of the new Marvel Legends Avengers Endgame figures Hercules and Living Laser, but both were missing their build a figure pieces. I showed them to this lady that was working over in the toy section and she couldn't believe someone would do that, and I told her ya they do it a lot. Also checked the new Ross by the Walmart and they didn't have anything new not even Trypticon.

    I’ve still been seeing them at TJMaxx in my area but they’ve increased the price to $16.99 (I got them for $12.99 prior). But they have a connector in the back that connects to Trypticon's panels right there so it’s a seamless look.

    When they release Siege Brunt to create the extra towers etc, I think the city mode is going to look amazing.

    Heads up, Amazon has SS38 BB Optimus Prime in stock again $29.99 free shipping. For those of us that don't want to pay $40+ after shipping on Hasbro Pulse.

    If you didn't do the pulse premium whatever back in February then yes. Shipping is at least $8-9 for the most basic standard shipping, and then sales tax pushed me to about $40.70 so I took it out of the cart.

    Only way to get free shipping is if you're signed up with their pulseplus subscription or whatever it is called. So $29.99+ tax pushes you to about $32 ish for a voyager, then tack on their $8 or $9 for just standard shipping and you're suddenly paying $40+ for a voyager.

    You could've got Pulse Premium for free if you ordered a figure prior to March 1st. I picked up the Select Magatron so now I'm Premium through the end of the year. Worth it in my opinion, I even got free shipping on Megs
