    Replace 1 Soundwave with a Prowl, and that's what it looks like today.

    I figured there'd be no reason to bother checking today.
    I doubt they had any of the new GIJoes, either.

    Thank You mundo for the deletion of 1 optimus.
    At least the half that was left.
    Hopefully it doesn't return.
    Knowing this Wally, it wouldn't surprise me.

    Yes, there were more showing up out this way today. I found one at the Butler Target this afternoon. Stashed another behind a Jurassic World playset on the bottom shelf on the other side of the aisle if anyone else up this way is still searching for one.

    I don't know what's worse: the fact that Thrust is so hard to find that we need to use popfindr or the fact that I know 087-16-1955 by memory now. Either way, looks like I'm headed to the Target in Ross later tonight.

    Yeah. I oftentimes memorize DCPI numbers. It's annoying.

    I called the closest Target showing Thrust in stock, and the automated message flat out says they will NOT do stock look-ups.
    That's nice.

    Disregard that message and ask anyway, every time I get a hold of an actual person they check for me.

    I just decided to start getting up at 7:30 in the morning and checking there website. They had them in Hagerstown yesterday but they did not do in store pick up and by the time I got there they were sold out. Today they were in stock at Martinsburg West Virginia. Luckily they did have order now for in-store pick up. I had ordered one for myself my son and a friend. At 9 am I got a message saying sold out unavailable. Five minutes later I did get two emails saying that I had a thrust. So I was able to get one for myself and my son. My friend however now is on his own. Seems the only way to get these.
    now that I’m more into this line I really wish I didn’t skip thundercracker and Skywarp. As well as dirge and ramjet. I’m very surprised how much better these figures are than my masterpiece ones.

    Hey guys! First post here but you folks have helped me not miss out on some figures over the years so I wanted to give back!

    Was on my way to Ross Township Target for Thrust but stopped in McCandless first where 6 Thrusts were greeting me. 5 on the shelf as of 5:30pm!

    I didn’t see anything else like Kingdoms figures deluxe/voyager but there was also an Earthrise Wheeljack and two core Optimus figures.

    Yesterday this one chick at my local Target pretended to go in the back for like 2 minutes to look for Sunstreaker when I didn't even ask her to in the 1st place. Dealing with this "hunt" sometimes makes you forget the definition of what a true Hobby even is. So what I won't be doing this year is stressing over Retail and Online screw ups.

    Last year I ran thru over 50 Kindle and Audible books and I'll just see if I can break that record this year. Especially since stores dragging their feet with restocking is so common this time of year anyway.

    I'm there now, but I don't see any thrusts. Were they somewhere else in the store or with the rest of the tfs? Hope I didn't miss them by just an hour

    Don’t know if these have been spotted anywhere but this is all the Langhorne Target has as far as transformers. They’re on an end cap, nothing in the usual aisle that has transformers except for botbots

    McCandless has no thrusts left from what I can see. One core optimus left. Ross has nothing. These exclusives are really starting to piss me off. I get that shipping is bad right now, but it's seeing them all over ebay that's killing me.

    They were right with the rest of the transformers above the Shockwave leader figures. Sounds like they got cleared out quickly :/

    Four Thrusts at Hanover Target this morning, unbelievably. Also five Vipers in back after I grabbed one @Dachande .

    Heading out there before the local collector shop buys them all up.
    Hopefully...
