    Nothing new at the Powhatan Walmart unless you were waiting for the Five Nights At Freddy's Security Breach figures. Now I shall play with my Vanny and Netflix Bumblebee when I get home.

    Oh wait just remembered, I might of saw a price tag for Studio Series deluxes I think at about $14. Might of read it wrong as there was a woman right in front of it who was buying stuff for I believe two girls as she got two of the Lego Friends sets along with two Eilita-1 figures in the cart.

    The Runamuck and Thrust I ordered actually arrived! Wooo

    Nothing new at Mosaic. The only new thing at Target Seven Corners is the Gold Armor Bumblebee ReAction figures next to the peg full of Megatrons that have been there for weeks.

    I mean I don't live in Fairfax, but if they're in the state in one place they'll soon be showing up in others.

    I snagged the Blurr earlier from Mosaic; Jazz was long gone. They also had a Gigawatt that I also rehomed. Grabbed Jazz from Ruination who found the SS 86 deluxes earlier in Gainesville. Just need a Kup now. Dumfries Target put out a case of 86 Voyagers and sold two of the Scourges and a Hot Rod. The remaining Hot Rod was beat all to hell. The remaining case is in the warehouse. So I ask them to pull one of each for me. The best part is they are rationing them one per customer; so you could pick either Hot Rod or Scourge; the manager said they were a extremely high demand item. I choose Scourge. Just called to see if I could get a Hot Rod held at customer service. Nope, they are street dated on the handhelds but ring up just fine. The person I spoke to said the manager (assistant store manager) that sold me Scourge is getting in trouble; the same guy that pulled the Scourge for me - a peon working in electronics. That store needs a full purge of personnel and a fresh crew hired.

    None of the SS 86 stuff is showing up on popfindr or brickseek. Not really surprised. Scourge rung at the register as 087-06-5839

    Target has SS86 figures! 2 Scourges, 3 Hot Rods (after I grabbed one), 3 Ectotrons, and 1 Ironworks.

    Walmart has Kingdom core class figures: 3 Primes, 1 Vertebreak, and 2 Rattraps after I finished with them. Also four Netflix Elita-1s, two Netflix Wheeljacks, and Grapples.

    Roanoke Target had about 4 or 5 Ectotron figs, 1 MP Bumblebee (VW), and lots of the Buzzworthy figs. If they had the G1 boxed Ectotron, I would have made the purchase on sight. The new version? On a blister card? At $60?!? I can't believe someone thought that was a good idea.

    I give up on White Oak Target. They have not restocked anything since Christmas. Nine Mile Walmart is no better.

    Grabbed me an Ecto-tron (Ghostbusters Afterlife re-issue this afternoon from Forest Hill Ave Target and left one. It's a decent figure but it has issues with tabbing in the rubber tube bits and the proton pack tends to be a little bit insecure on the peg. It compliments my Gigawatt nicely. There was also two ER Thrusts on the shelf (I left both of those.

    Are Ectotron and Gigawatt in with the rest of the 'Formers or over in electronics?

    The one I bought from Mosaic was just haphazardly tossed on a random endcap on the backside of toys.
