    Bloomington Target had nada.
    EP Target had 1 lone S3 Botbot blindpack (#4), Jetpack Op, and a KSI boss. Also the Gnaw there is marked down to 12.99, but he doesn't scan on the price scanners soooo... that's neat?

    G-1 Soundwaves finally got put out in Willmar at Wal-Mart... all have box damage from the security devices on them.......in fact. I think they are the only toys with those on them. Passed as I have plenty of Soundwaves as it is. Nothing else to report on as same stock on other items..

    I’m just curious when Hasbro does AOE/TLK prime in the studio Series do you guys think it will be voyager or leader class? I’m just wondering because that’s the movieverse prime I prefer but the weapon rack/trailer would fit him if he were voyager.

    I'm assuming Voyager since all of the Primes thus far have been. DotM Megatron was a Leader because he had a big vehicle mode, but ended up being just about as tall as the SS Voyager Megs in bot mode. So it was like the Siege Leaders in that regard. Less height, more density.

    Looking at AoE/TLK Prime, I don't really see enough to make him Leader class in either mode...and I'm not familiar enough with either movie to know if there's something they could pack him with to justify the Leader class.

    No really there isn’t anything to pack him with, I just love the whole knight bot mode (with his awesome sword) and his more modern/futuristic truck mode is just killer.

    That sucks. Haven't seen him with the security spiders anywhere else, but did see a flock of OPs at one point where they did that. Great way to ruin the box out of the gate. Also hate when they put them on the big Lego sets, or anything really.

    Finally have a good G1 Soundwave, but haven't found a good set of cassettes yet. Got a couple just in case but everything I've seen has badly placed stickers and/or creases in the stickers. Hopefully can find a good set before they are all gone from stores, but at least have decent ones for now.

    Also noticed in multiple Walmarts that the Siege Jetfire appears to always be over by the Godzilla stuff. Not sure why, but if you are looking for one, he isn't usually with the other TF for some reason.

    She's cheaper than the Legends Nightbird...but I'm disappointed they didn't give her some new ninja weapons. Not exactly "stealth" to come rolling in with a blaster and hand grenades.

    Shakopee WalMart had G1 Soundwave and cassettes. I want him but he's just too pricey for me right now. To grab all 3 comes to nearly $100...

    Outside my usual shopping range but when at weddings.. Fargo target had Gnaw and backpack prime! Walked out with the Prime! Passed on all previous uses of the mold.. 1st was too dark..2nd was tempted.. But when leaks off the leader came outat the same time, I opted for the trailer! (I purposely avoid multiples of molds)
