    If anyone's still looking for Cyclonus, the Blair's Ferry Target in CR has one on their shelves as of 15 minutes ago.

    Grimlock and Blurr are the only two I've seen in the wild in the Ankeny area.

    Elmore Target last night had 1 primal, 1 Kingdom Prime, the new Bumblebee/Spike, and tons of core class.

    Elmore Walmart today has 6ish Grimlocks.

    Coralville Target is pretty bare, just 1 Warpath and 1 Kingdom OP. They do have a “25% off 1 toy” discount until the 13th for Target Circle members though!

    Coralville Walmart on the other hand has quite a lot. 2 each of the first RED wave, a Netflix Elita-1, a Hardhead reissue and 2-3 each of Kup, Jazz and Blurr.

    I saw on the TF subreddit that some lucky collector found Inferno and Dinobot in a West Des Moines Walmart, so that’s why I went today. Kingdom Wave 2 should be here soon!

    Thanks for the heads up!

    I stopped by at 8pm Saturday, and all I saw were Retro Headmasters, Warpath, Core Prime, and the same 2 Netflix Wheeljacks. I'll try to keep an eye out throughout the week.

    I'm actually hoping it's more wave 1. I never found a Cyclonus, and haven't any interest in wave 2.

    I checked both Davenport Walmarts early this afternoon (around 10:30) and found no signs of Kingdom wave 2 (or Kingdom at all really), no new Netflix bots, and no wave 2 retro headmasters. Basically nothing at all new.

    Just got back from Cedar Falls Walmart where they have Kingdom wave 3 deluxes and voyagers. I took a Huffer and the only Inferno. This store already had the voyagers a week or two ago, so this was a restock.
