    You seem to hit up a lot of the mid-to-lower part of the State.

    I've pretty much pre-ordered everything I want for Earth Rise except for Smokescreen, Alicon and the Micromaster Astro Squad.

    Hit me up if you come across those live in a store

    Target RT 2 in Warwick has Battle Master Rung. The only thing new I saw. Still lots of Grapples in Warwick. Toy Vault has a Sky Lynx they just got in.

    I guess that means they got Slitherfang, but it got purchased. I kept checking those 2 Targets for the space micromasters, but all they have is wave 1 (Daddy-O/Trip-Up and Growl/Bombshock).

    Walmart on Post Rd had a fresh case of Earthrise deluxe wave 1 and a leader case of OP and Double Dealer (1 of each). They also have Netflix voyager figures, too (Hotlink and Megatron).

    I grabbed the last Slitherfang at Rt 2 Warwick Target. They had 2 of the Skywarp/Thundercracker packs. Target at the Warwick Mall had a bunch of Slitherfangs.

    Yeah, I forgot to mention Slitherfang. I wish I had stopped into Walmart earlier to get Doubledealer. Both ER leaders were gone by the time I got there.

    There are a couple of Snapdragons at Walmart Post Rd if anyone needs them.

    Also, anyone shop at Toy Vault in the Warwick Mall? I like the store, but the Transformers are always overpriced. I picked up Doubledealer from there the other day. To help keep them in business.

    I used to be there more often but even then, i had to pick and choose. Sometimes you find some gems though, so its always worth it. Especially with the lack of other spots in 401 that feature TFs as one of their showcases, TV can be a good resource. The warehouse is in Smithfield, off 44; they had small public days there in the past as well.

    Went hunting today.

    Target Swansea has Pounce & Wingspan clones and Seekers two-pack, Thundercracker & Skywarp.
    Toy Vault at Emerald Square Mall has Doubledealer and a few other Earthrise figures. It's also a tax-free weekend in Mass. FYI

    My two local spots are the Targets in Lincoln and North Attleboro.

    Lincoln had wave 1 stuff and a few Rungs, but nothing else new.

    NA had wave 1 stuff and a few each of the wave 2 micromasters (as of yesterday)

    The other Target in Warwick got the same yesterday, too. The Walmart over there has voyagers for $26...plenty of Snapdragons. Not much of note out and about.

    I found a Doublecrosser at Warwick Mall Target this morning. Not much else and none at the other Warwick Target.
