    I probably hit Norman like once every two weeks if I'm actively hunting something. Sometimes I just start at Yukon and work the west side of OKC (rarely get to Quail Springs or Edmond or MWC) and maybe hit Moore/Norman if everywhere else was empty. Norman and Yukon Targets seem to get new stuff quickest though Norman seems to get cleaned out quickest also. Moore seems to be a day or so behind Norman but once in a while you hit paydirt. I would send you a PM if I see Thrust, but when I am roaming I am usually about an hour drive (if I don't make other stops on the way back) from home so the info would probably be irrelevant by the time I got home.

    WRT Thrust, popfindr says there's a store in BA and the one in Tulsa Hills with a good amount of stock. What works for me is to see it on popfindr or brickseek, bring up the item on target.com on my phone, then bug a worker with "hey your website says this is in stock but I don't see it on the shelves". Had to do that for runabout too.

    I've definitely noticed after moving to Norman from okc that transformers get absolutely wiped out here compared to up in the city. Not sure what it is, might just be that there are less stores in general, but I'm having a much more difficult time finding the figures I want here than I was in okc

    I haven't seen any Kingdom or SS-86 here in the city yet, only online orders coming in.

    Found 2 86 Hot Rods at the 71st and 169 Target in Tulsa. I bought one, left the other. They also had a few Thrusts. No Scourges or anything else there though.

    I don't have the loose leaf for them, but I am appreciative of your efforts, my good bot. It's great to know they're in the local wild. I don't get much time for store hunting, so I think of you as this site's best "Tulsa Trawler." :D

    1 SS86 Hotrod, 1 Cyberverse Prowl, 1 Cyberverse Starscream, and 2 Thrusts at Target on 50th & May, OKC. They are in the middle of a reset, so they may bring out more soon.

    (Also, 1 half-gallon of 2% milk left in the grocery section, if you're on the hunt. :p )

    Nice get. I don't think any Walmarts around here have had anything from the Generations $10 price since Siege wave 1 micromasters. Maybe the decision to do so many major characters in that size/price again got to Walmart.

    Kingdom has officially started to hit Tulsa area. Found Voyager wave at both Broken Arrow Hillside Walmart and BA Target. As of this morning Walmart had two Optimus Primals left, and Target had two Primals and a Cyclonus. For the record, I can't decide which figure is better - Studio Series Scourge or Kingdom Cyclonus. They are both amazing.

    Found SS86 Grimlock and the deluxes at Yukon Target around 8:30 this morning. They only had one Kup, which I got (he seems to be the short pack), and "hid" the other Grimlock behind some Cyberverse figures. In addition to him, there were 2x Jazz & Blurr when I left.

    Picked up the Studio Series 86 Deluxes from Fan Fortress today. Still haven’t seen them in any area (Tulsa) Walmarts or Targets. Just need to find a Grimlock and I’ll be caught up again till Kingdom wave 2.
