    Scored 3 Reflectors on the north side. Is Springer still at 135 Target? Haven’t seen him anywhere, too lazy to drive over there and check...

    There were 2 Springers there at around 8pm last night.
    There was also a Galaxy Force Prime... but I bought it.

    Still have the new Targetmaster weapons.

    Avon Super Walmart
    Didn't really have anything but they did have Targetmaster weapons for $4.50 (instead of $6). I'd been waiting for this so I bought the last Firedrive (for Blurr….possibly Crosshairs). There were still 3 Blowpipes.

    Brownsburg Super Walmart
    No Targetmasters but they did have a Ravage/Laserbeak for $7 Not much else

    Amazon - Siege Springer
    Currently in stock for $30

    Almost every Target in the Region had a Springer, but none of them would let me buy him :/
    I finally got one in Crestwood.
    Also got a Brunt in Schererville, there should be one more last I checked.

    So, uh... I guess the Rainmaker 3-pack is already hitting retail? If anyone sees one, let me know. Those ugly things will be mine.

    i doubt they are hitting retail fairly quickly...maybe in a week or two. the picture that was posted about the rainmakers and micromasters to be target exclusive had the dpci number for brickseek...even though i really dont trust brickseek, so monitor that until we have live confirmation that they are in the wild. just my two cents on that

    Lawrenceburg Wal-Mart had a couple cases if wave 3 deluxes, though Refraktor was bought out before I got to them. 3 Red Alerts and 2 bunrts still available, as well as assorted others fron the previous waves. No Voyagers and one lonely shockwave.

    EDIT; Well either someone followed my notice or randomers finally picked up the joys of Transformers, but all Red Alerts, Brunts, and half of the other stock are gone now. XD

    Just looked at Brickseek, looks like Aurora WM has 6 G1 Soundwaves. I’m still deciding whether I want to pick it up

    Walmart on Coldwater Rd. had Soundwave but no tapes.
    Walmart on Illinois Rd. had Soundwave but no tapes.
    Walmart on Maysville Rd. had Soundwave and a peg of tapes. Case split looks to be 50/50 on tapes.
    Walmart on Lima Rd. had nothing. I don't even think they carry transformers anymore. I didn't see one peg label for a transformer figure of any kind.

    I was using Brickseek to try to find Soundwave and the tapes on Wednesday and Thursday. I was in Rensselaer, Indiana around 10:30 at night. Of course the toy section was bare. So I managed to ask a very helpful employee if they had the product for the new modular on pallets in the back. She said no, the product was actually being stored on shelves in the lawn and garden area until the reset next week. She was willing to walk me back there, help me find the boxes and I was able to see Soundwave and the tapes. Soundwave was ringing up just fine but the tapes were not yet in their system for some reason. So I was able to purchase soundwave (yay!). We did learn that the tapes are indeed going to retail for $20 a pair, which I think is ridiculous. But, because of the popularity of the tapes, I suspect they won't be around long enough to go to clearance pricing. I may just end up having to fork out the $40 to get all four of them.

    I have Masterpice Soundwave with all his cassettes. He's glorious. And at first, I thought I wouldn't be interested in getting a new G1 version of the character. But after seeing that box, I was suddenly 8 years old again. Just having that box sitting on the shelf, next to my MP Soundwave is awesome.

    If you are speaking of the same WM that I frequent, I can report that they don't have him out yet, I asked the person on-duty (especially after reading AutumnDescent's post), and they either haven't brought the box off of the pallet yet or it's being stored in a place that she didn't know about.

    Either way, Soundwave is not to be found at this time. Still just 3-4 G1 Optimuses... Optimus'..... Optimi?

    Yes, we left the box still stored in the garden area shelving. They wouldn't put him "out on the floor" until the new plannogram reset next week. If you are in Rensselaer's walmart, go through the store out to the garden area. As soon as you are leaving the main store to go to the greenhouse type area, look immediately to the left and there is a long corridor that is lined with shelving and tons of boxes of toys. I should have taken a picture. Soundwave was on the South wall shelves while the box of the tapes was on the North wall. We opened both boxes, which is how I was able to get a Soundwave.
