    Well my search for Overload is finally over. Was working out in the West Chicago area today so I stopped by the Target on Main Street in St. Charles, and a worker was stocking new stuff on a cart and I saw it just sitting there on her cart and I grabbed it. There was a Scavenger underneath that on the cart, and another Scavenger in the aisle along with an MPM Starscream and a couple Leadfoots (Leadfeet?). By the way the Overload scanned in at $29.99 at the checkout.

    Good thing you're up here. Forget looking for figures down there, stores are few and far between. Better off ordering online for them.

    Anyone else going to Dairycon 2020 (fan run TF convention) in Fond du Lac, WI this Saturday? $10 walk-in admission, 9am-3:30pm. Curious to see what the turnout will be like given the current circumstances. At least they're requiring masks.

    Any locals here interested in a free display case. It’s something I picked up a couple days ago from the FB marketplace and it just doesn’t fit what I have already. The dimensions are: Glass portion is 22” deep, 20” H, 36” w. Total height with base 38”. I also have the interior glass shelf. 59BA5192-8003-4F08-9426-8F145B220177.jpeg

    Picked up the only Overload at the Normal Walmart on Greenbriar. @Oreo Bot I will be on the look out for another Overload and if I find one I will let you know.

    dang, I didn’t see you posted this already. I actually just messaged you about overload like I said I was going to do. I don’t collect Cyberverse anymore actually, but thanks for the shout out bro!

    Target needs to get their ish together regarding these “street dates“. They keep receiving products months before their online preorder dates are saying they are salable.
    This is causing confusion with their employees understanding that the items are not “street dated” and that It’s just the online preorders are just coming at a later date.

    These MPM Starscream’s have been warming up the shelves at quite a few Targets I hit up in the Chicago area since they dropped. There have been up to five boxes at a spot.
