if anyone happens to find DC Universe McFarlane's grim knight or metals batman especially around the east bay, please let me know in private chat, I would appreciate it so much! Pictures for reference.

 

Nah it's cool, it'd be out of the way for both of us since I don't go up there these days but thanks.

It's an action figure but target is also carrying some model kits now.

 

Steven's creek Target.


Looks like San Jose has been getting deluxe restocks

 

I opened my Kingdom Optimus Primal this week and I’m really impressed. I was on the fence and ordered him when Amazon had him discounted at a deluxe price. Really happy though.

Damn Beast Wars is sucking me in. Now I have to get Rhinox and probably Airrazor.

 

Been keeping my eyes open bro. I might try to hit up dublin tomorrow and make the rounds. It's just been such a desert lately.

 

Appreciate the effort bro!

 

Been looking everywhere for this too. Only seen the wave here and there, but never Bats. A random app order was the only way I was able to find the bike.

 

Antioch Target has 2 sets of kingdom deluxes, Studio series 86 deluxes 2 of each left after I grabbed a Jazz. 3 Kingdom leader Megatrons.

 

One bluestreak @ mission 26th walgreens

One wave of kingdom deluxe wave 1 (Arachnia, Cheet, Warpth, Paleo) and Optimus prime at folsom st target with a peg of studio Soundwave (both types), deluxe TLK hotrod, arcee bikes, leader Megatron 34 too

 

@serramonte target really stock up today
picked up a ss jazz

 

Yea, dude same with me on the bike, got it thru the app pickup! Only seen one grim knight in late January or so while I was desperately hunting the ss86 so I just left it, but now it's a different story. You know what they say, when you don't want to find something, it's always there, but when you want to find it, it's never there. So true.....

 

they'll be long gone tomorrow morning when I go by!

not that I need anyone other than Kup right now...and BW Megs...

 

I definitely underestimated how these are distributing, especially since certain ones pegwarm. I’m still shocked that the 2-4 sets of the Bane wave I saw a week ago vanished right after I bought a set.

 

No more studio series when I just checked right now. They did have kingdom leaders though. I left one BW megatron.

 

Errrg. I need that guy. Congrats. So is there one Jazz left?

 

College Grove Walmart has two Cheetors, a Blackarachnia, a Warpath, and the Cyberverse Megatrons that still haven’t budged. Still feels weird seeing Beast Wars on the pegs after all this time.

College Grove Target has some Buzzworthy stuff (no Deluxes). No Kingdom or SS86 in the back. Ross nearby has nothing.

Mission Valley Target has a bunch of Buzzworthy stuff and 2 Kingdom Primals. No SS86 or other Kingdom stuff in the back.

Sports Arena Target has the Buzzworthy Core pack, a Blurr, 2 Hot Rods, and 2 Primals. Nothing in the back. Ross nearby has nothing.

Clairemont Walmart has a Bike Sisters set, a Skipjack, 2 Scavengers, and an Overload.

Othello Target is pretty much Cyberverse stuff, no Kingdom or SS86, even in the back.

Balboa Target is really well stocked, it has a bunch of Buzzworthy stuff and the current Kingdom Deluxes along with 4 Primals. An extra Kingdom Voyager and the Cores are in the back, along with some SS86 Voyagers. Tons of Deluxes are being opened as of leaving, says there’s 25+ on the floor. If you need any, want to customize some, or just want to army-build some Paleotrexes, now’s your shot.

 

yep at least paleotrex will still be there lol. im surprise the two warpath are still on the pegs since yeaterday

 

yep one jazz left on the peg

 

So this is how I saw it on my end.

Early January-easy to find the first waves, they were all pegwarming to some extent, seemed that no one would assume Mcfarlane would knock it out of the park with this one.
Late January-still some stock left and newer wave started popping up but I was too into transformers. At this point, still saw some bat-bikes here and there, didnt pick up yet.
Early February-barely to zero stock of the older waves with the dark batmans, no robin crows, no devastators, etc.
Mid February-new wave with Bane BAF, went out pretty fast as you pointed out, a few sightings of metals batman with trenchcoat and the drowned, gone instantly.
Now-no new stock of bane or newer wave so it seems.

But I have hope, Mcfarlane/DC knows now how popular they have gotten, it might follow similiar course as the ss866 deluxes and will be in abundance coming March on.
Joker is the ultimate peg warmer, he is pretty much the transformers equivelant to paleotrex. Eventually a Ross pegwarmer too.

 

Went hunting for Retro Headmasters today at 5 Walmarts -- struck out at Rosemead, Duarte, West Covina, and Baldwin Park. Each of those had a few Kingdom deluxes (no Cheetor) and little else.

Managed to find and buy the only Headmaster (Chromedome) at Walmart in Covina -- so not a total loss!
