    I was at two local Targets today and saw both Siege Shockwave and Earthrise Astrotrain for 50% off, so $24.99 each. As I'm sure you're aware there are Shockwaves galore out there. 124th and Capitol Target had about 4 Shockwaves, second shelf from bottom on the second end cap in if you're coming from the front of store at the back of the aisle. Kossow Rd has about the same amount of Shockwaves as well as I believe two more ER Astrotrains. Those are in the main aisle, lower shelf.

    Forgot to mention that the Kossow Rd location also had some Kingdom. Core Prime, Vertebreak, Paleotrex, Cheetor and Rattrap if memory serves me correctly.

    Anybody see the G1 Blasters at Walmart at those extremely low prices some people are getting them for? It always seems like others get them them for $1-$5 and we never get them for below retail.

    Hilldale also has them as of last night. They also had Warpath and a few other things. Shcockwave & Astro were still full prince though.

    Picked up a Kingdom leader Megatron and core Vertebreak at West Target. Left a Kingdom leader Prime and a few of the Kingdom core class, along with 7-8 of the buzzworthy bumblebee deluxes.

    Still nothing new (other than buzzworthy stuff) at Fitchburg Target.

    Also, I'm not a GI Joe collector by any means, but I saw that Fitchburg Target had around 6 of a (new?) GI Joe Classified Cobra Viper figure in stock, FYI. I thought for a second about getting a couple to sell online, but I pushed back the dark side scalper temptation so people who actually collect them would be able to get them! :D

    Went back out for round 2 of hunting today to Hilldale Target and snagged a Studio Series Hot Rod & Scourge. I think they had 2 Thrusts, a Cyclonus, and another Scourge leftover for voyagers; don't think I saw any newer Leader class there.

    Went to Target in the Falls and picked up a SS86 Scourge. They had 1 more and about 6 Hot Rods. Also had a Kingdom Optimus both Leader and Core Class and some Buzzworthy Bumblebees both Deluxe and the Spike combos.

    I just bought that Cyclonus, they have one Scourge and one Thrust left. Cyclonus’s box was all ripped up at the bottom, so the cashier gave me 10% off, which was very nice. I didn’t even ask for a discount or point out the damage at all.

    Found one Scourge at Hilldale. Bought it. Found two Hot Rods at East. Bought one. Found three new Cyberverse deluxes at East and bought the only one they had doubles of: Starscream.

    Came here thinking this would be bigger news, but I see people have again been spotting these for a few days and I got no alerts from this garbage message board software.

    Earlier today I was out on the east side of town already, so I thought I might check out some Walmarts to see if they had any of those crazy deals on the G1 Blaster reissue. East side Walmart had one each of the new headmaster reissues, several WFC Netflix Megatrons, and a TON of Cyberverse stuff (all stacked on top of each other across the aisle from where the ~10 other Transformers items were).

    I also checked out the Monona Walmart - that one had an even smaller TF selection, still including some of those new headmaster reissues. I did get a nice surprise of having two guys & one of their pregnant girlfriends get into a screaming/shoving fight right next to me, apparently enough to get employees/cops/paramedics involved, so that was fun. Kinda wish Hasbro would stop selling so many exclusive TFs at Walmart so I don't have to visit those stores anymore... :rolleyes:

    I toggled the watch thread button and it seems to be working now.
    dang I want to get those but didn’t feel like hunting on a weekend. Maybe tomorrow I’ll make it to a Walmart or two for the headmasters.

    Checked Walmart out in Germantown, same ole peg warmers. They did have the G1 Blasters but they were still $20. Otherwise, the Target in the falls has 2 SS86 Hot Rods and 1 Sourge. The Target in Wauwatosa and Waukesha didn’t have anything new though the one on Koskow had a lot of the minibots in.
