    College Grove Walmart’s entire TF stock is two Kingdom Arcees.

    College Grove Target has Buzzworthy figures, 6 B-127s, and a Dino. Kid’s gift shop section has a lot more Buzzworthy and 2 more Dinos. Ross nearby has nothing.

    Mission Valley Target has a Paleotrex, 2 Vertebreaks, and 3 Rattraps.

    Sports Arena Target has a Blurr, a Dino, 2 B-127s, a Primal... and two Scavengers??? Talk about an odd restock, especially considering how all the Devastator components have stopped showing up. Scavenger’s solid on his lonesome, though. Ross nearby has nothing.

    Clairemont Walmart has 1 RED Megatron, 2 RED Cheetors, and 4 RED Arcees. There’s also 2 Kingdom Arcees, a Vertebreak, and 1 BBScream.

    Othello Target has the Buzzworthy figures, 2 Vertebreaks, a Paleotrex, an Airazor, and a Ractonite.

    Balboa Target has 3 Paleotrexes, 2 Cheetors, 2 Blackarachnias, a Warpath, 2 Arcees, 5 Primals, a Cyclonus, 7 Hot Rods, and a Scavenger.

    Weird that they’re restocking Scavenger of all Studio Series figures. Sorry that this list is not comprehensive, there’s something that happened midway through the hunt that I really don’t want to divulge on at the moment, but it’s left me paranoid.

    Colma is down to just 3 Scavengers, still loads of Blackarachnia, Warpath, and Paleotrex. 1 B-127 and 4 Dinos.
    As a side note, tons of Neca stuff out out, was tempted by Ultimate Marty, Biff, Doc for Back to the Future, Gremlins, and the T-1000 and a full set of Ghostbusters.

    Marty, biff, gremlins, and the T-1000 has been there for a couple weeks so you could always go back for them if you change your mind. I must’ve kept on missing that Doc every time I went though.

    One of the Docs was covered in chia seeds, so I assume it was shelved in back somewhere under some overstock.

    Well I got good news and I got bad news. I saw a single case not opened this morning at opening at the Santa Ana Walmart on McFadden. The stocker said it was all right for me to open it up and I ended up taking two rather than the one that I stated prior In another post and another collector took the last one. Now as far as I know that's the only case but at least you know they're starting to arrive in Southern California

    Target West has 1 Airazor and 2 Ractonites. 1 SS86 Hot Rod as well, and a bunch of B-127 and Dino. John Stewart is still here, and a few Cyberverse Deluxes.
    Just put out some Wave 1 Cores! Grabbed my Optimus Prime finally (Happy Birthday to me!)! Also, the Target Team Member said something about April 25th first thing in the morning G1? Not sure what she meant.

    Just finished a trip at Colma Target. Thanks for the heads up about the neca back to the future stuff. Managed to snag a doc brown and audition Marty. Still no sign of the turtles in disguise 4 pack unfortunately. 4 studio series scavengers and a handful of dinos and B127 still. Nothing else new.

    Yeah, there’s been like ZERO TMNT stuff, only Serramonte seems to get them and they go QUICK. I was once in a store as they were stocked and cleared out within an hour.

    Big reason I won’t really bother checking serramonte for neca. I just know I’ll always be too late.

    Every Target I’ve gone to has the NECA section cleared out. I’m assuming I’ll never see the Turtle 4 pack. Hell, I haven’t seen the new Kingdom wave.
