    Hey, I'm new to this board, but just wanted to let everyone know I was at the Upland Walmart on Foothill and Benson today and there are a bunch of G1 bumblebees, Gears and Warpath, about 3 Siege Soundwaves, and 1 Ultra Magnus, but the box was a bit crushed in...I'm in a lot of different areas due to my job, and I'm hoping to add some updates to this board. Also I always have stuff to trade if any in the 909 to 714 areas are interested..

    Bought an SS-38 Optimus Prime yesterday. Are you guys still seeing SS-35 Jetfire figures in retail stores? If so, where? TIA!

    I usually see SS Jetfire at Target. For some reason in my area Targets carry more SS than Walmart, which carries more Siege.

    Hey, anyone near the Del Amo Mall area in Torrance want a Marvel Legends Target exclusive Spiderman/MJ two pack? I got an extra.

    Edit: Also have an extra set of Marvel Legends Quantum Suits two pack too. This set though will be gone by next week if no one wants it.

    Spy and rescue patrol at the walmart the 52 and the 805 in San Diego. I took one of the spy patrols since it’s not something I will every find in my home state.

    Glad to be visiting. Hopefully I can find galaxy prime tomorrow after my job interview.

    Dang. Found a Galaxy Prime with a perfect box at Target Vallejo to replace the one I bought a month ago and now it's got a steet date of 7/28? Sigh. Might as well just keep the shelves empty of anything.

    You're not the only one. I ran into the same problem with Galaxy Prime at Albany Target two weeks ago. Ended up ordering him off The Chosen Prime instead.

    IMG_0526.JPG IMG_0524.JPG IMG_0519.JPG Albany Target had the most Siege Leaders I've seen in one place. 1 Ultra Magnus, 2 Shockwaves, and 1 Galaxy Optimus (which you probably won't be able to purchase by itself because it's street-dated until 7/28). If you buy Galaxy Optimus, get one of the Shockwaves or Ultra Magnus and scan it twice to bypass the self-checkout system.

    Targets near me absolutely will not even put them out until 7/28. Ridiculous. One Walmart near me wont even sell leader class ones. It super difficult to get right now. I've been trying for weeks.

    If you're looking for Galaxy Optimus, he's in stock at The Chosen Prime.
    Transformers: Siege Leader Class Optimus Prime

    It does feel ridiculous,I admit. If the stores are putting out product on shelves, it should be available for people to buy. All they're doing is losing money with this street date that would have gone to them now.
