    I'm not sure as I haven't been there since; however, I believe that Thrust was there for a while since I saw one there maybe a week or two before then (assuming it was the same one).

    Not sure if it was another shipment or old stock but friend found a Netflix Soundwave at Batavia Walmart yesterday. Glad to have that out of the way finally. Only one there but they still have Prime

    2 cases of retro headmasters minus a hardhead at the Plainfield Walmart. They are still on the pallet in the toy area.

    Finally found an Elita 1. Left one Elita, two Wheeljacks, and an Impactor (all Netflix) at St. Charles Walmart off of 64 for anyone who missed those.

    Still can't find an Arcee.

    As odd as it may sound, try Aldi. The one I frequent in Swansea had ER Wave 2 Deluxes recently.

    That is my closest Walmart you're bashing, and you are 100% correct. I never want to go in there.

    I'll check around, thanks! Otherwise, Meijer is my only other saving grace. They tend to have older stock of bots.

    I have been all over Chicago land. I appear to keep just missing Cyclones. I have seen him in 4-5 shopping carts. Anyone willing to swap a Netflix Soundwave for one?

    The Target in Melrose Park had a bunch of Kingdom stuff out. No leaders unfortunately. Took the only Cyclonus. 3 primals and all of the deluxes are there.

    Lemme see what I can do. I might be able to come into possession of two Cyclonuses tomorrow. No guarantees, but if I’m able to secure them, would you be able to meet in the parking lot of a palatine target?


    Lake Zurich Walmart (pissed me off) had 3 Netflix wheeljack. That’s it. Literally nothing. Lake Zurich Target had 2 Grimlocks, Scavenger, warpath and Cheetor.

    No problem. I was considering getting him, but I didn’t really want him, and I was like “I know at least one of my fellow suburb guys wants him more than I do.” The suburbs are dry af, we gotta stick together LOL

    Another question: can anyone near the Johnsburg SuperWalmart confirm whether or not they have SS Bonecrusher, SS 06 Starscream and SS KSI Boss? I checked the website and it says they’re there, but when I called none of the employees can verify whether it’s true or not.

    It’s probably cross referenced with the current waves that are out.

    Um, I’m still a bit confused. Is what you’re saying is the website is showing the price of voyagers there and just using those figures as placards or that they actually are there?

    More likely than not the figures aren’t there. They don’t keep track of individual figures, just the number of voyagers they have. Even then the website isn’t that accurate and could say somethings in stock that really isnt

    unrelated but blono Meijer restocked wave 2 ER deluxes (minus allicons). Walmart has SS86 deluxes except Kup
