    Jeez, people need to pay attention. Sorry to hear that as I never really had to experience that around Walmarts or Targets.

    Now you know why I keep asking people to look for Yoda and Luke. When I go to Walmart, I take my life into my own hands. *stares off into the void*

    Plus I'm trying to get a set for Titanium as well.

    Went to the Burbank Walmart last night. They didn't have anything exciting in the Transformers section, but they did have a big ol' display of those Black Series Jedi Luke and Spirit Yoda folks seem to be looking for. Said display was plopped right in front of Electronics.

    Don't thank me, thank the knife. I mean @Sunsetter for posting about it.

    I will keep my eyes open around here in case I find myself near Walmart.

    Ordered Siege Apeface off Amazon (who’s still available) Friday night and he’s on my doorstep early Saturday afternoon. That’s pretty crazy. Also $5 off retail.

    I remember getting G1 Apeface for Christmas as a kid and thinking WTF? One of the more bizarre characters out there. Good to see the Siege one still has that same vibe.

    I haven't seen any since they were first found a couple of weeks ago. But I have one extra from my online purchase, if you are interested shoot me a PM.

    My Walgreen's had 3 of Ratchet sitting on the shelf, so if someone needs him, let me know.

    Sacramento Walgreens at Howe & Arden had two Ratchets 25% off. I grabbed one.

    Make sure to point it out to the checker as mine didn't know it was on sale.

    Thanks OCProwl for the offer, I'm not in a rush to grab him just curious if our area had seen him at all. I didn't recall any posted sightings in our area

    Glad you got it because it's out of stock again (for now?). Great price!

    Wow, good timing then. I had in my cart the first time it popped up and completely forgot about it. By the time I remembered they were sold out. So glad that I saw your post and bought it immediately (even just paid the shipping since I didn't want to waste time looking for something to get free shipping). Looks like it was a good decision now.
