    Not TF related and I have 0 interest in MLP, but I found this on my local Burlington.

    Could this mean that there is a slight chance that Target Exclusives make it to Burlingtons?

    Could be. I myself have not seen any Target exclusives at a Burlington, since it does not really exist where I am at, but I have seen plenty of Target and Walmart Exclusives at a Ross though. But don't count your stars yet since the newer exclusives ends up more on Ebay than discounters such as the SIEGE Rainmakers, Netflix SIEGE exclusives and such. What I have seen were Movie exclusives at best.

    There used to be a ton of Siege Transformers in my area, but they've all quickly dried up. I commute for work and once a week hit 4-5 Ross stores that are less than 5 minutes from the freeway and none of them have had anything in the last week... and what happens? I'm starting to see old Siege figures mysteriously show up at Target and people are reporting an influx of swap-outs. Just yesterday, I saw Ultra Magnus in the go-back basket at Target.

    Burlington (and all the other discounters) buys their stock from Hasbro. This just means that Hasbro had extra of this product that Target didn't want. Target exclusives have shown up in the past and will in the future. It doesn't mean anything specific about this year's TF exclusives.

    Hit up FIVE (5) Ross stores today and this is the closest thing to a Transformer I could find! :mad:  20201106_142715.jpg

    I saw that too! I just found out the Ross in my area opened almost two weeks ago, so I went last night. I lucked out, since i also found a Starscream.

    Underneath the tables? Oh, man. I'm totally new to this whole Ross thing. I'll have to remember to check there next time.

    The tables are a Christmas holiday thing. During the holidays there may be two or even three areas in the Ross with toys. As you can see in the picture above, they may put up tables with tablecloths of varying length. During the CW boxsets sales years ago I remember hitting Ross that people claimed were empty and finding 6-8 boxsets sitting in bins in the front of the store instead in the back where the toys usually are. Other places to potentially check is the shelves in the middle they are using to block off the changing rooms. FOMO is real.

    This is were I hid a couple of Trypticons for my homies here in Salem, OR. I kept finding that giant T-rex that after buying 3, I gave up and gave some other peeps a chance to have em and told on the local sightings postings. Even did that with a couple of POTP Voyagers and MPM Bumblebees.

    One of our guys out here in Vegas found a couple yesterday. So they're spreading out a bit more, it looks like.

    I don't have a Ross in my state, have Siege figures been available much at TJ Maxx and Marshall's too and if so how are they generally priced? I know they're not always as cheap as Ross but is there still a decent discount?

    I NEVER seen Transformers figures at Ross stores, never once in FL, NY, MD or VA, wonder why.
