    Wow...no shame at all in returning this for $20. If their that hard up for cash then why even bother buying just to swap. Heck there's times I see bots I would like to buy but can't so I leave them I don't do the ol switcheroo. Sorry ass ppl

    Phone crapped out on me, so I'm not sure if they're still there, but at 2pm, Pflugerville Walmart off of Stone Hill had 3 SS B-127 and Dino. I took one of each. That same old Elita. And 1 Netflix Prime set. And 2 BB Starscreams, 1 Hot Rod

    Gamestop across the parking lot had 1 GS Deep Cover, and these carded guys, never seen Blaster, Perceptor or Blitzwing, so I figured it'd be worth a share.

    Midlothian Walmart had a restock!
    SS86 Hot Rod & Scourge, Bee movie Starscream, Netflix Deluxe wave 3, and a few Huffers and Airazor. Saw one Dinobot. They also had three Classified Cobra Commanders. Only the second time I've seen Classified in the wild.

    in west Houston, west oaks Walmart has 1 of each cyclonus & scourge, and a couple hot rods. royal oaks Walmart has 2 cyclonus..

    edit: forgot to mention earlier. at West Oaks Walmart i spotted an R.E.D Cheetor busted open and stripped of the accessories tray. all the accessories were gone, presumably stolen. if that's the case, and youre on this site; if there's a next time... i hope you get caught.

    I went by the Target on Grand Parkway today and they did not have much but did have one SS 86 Grimlock and one Kingdom Leader Megatron. They also had SS Dino and Cybertron Bumblebee. Then I went by the Walmart in Bella Terra and they had some Kingdom Primel's and I think one or two Cyclonus. Oh one thing I did find that was exciting to see was at the Target I went to they had the big Lego Ghostbusters Ecto-1 car which is 200 dollars. Was kind of cool to see that there. Oh and a few days ago I was at the Walmart on 1093 near Fulshear and scored me a Castle Grayskull which I was excited to find. They also had Skeletor's Panthor with the real fur but I had to pass on it because it was 40 dollars. Still glad I finally found Castle Grayskull. When me and my sister were little we had some of the Masters of the Universe toys and Castle Grayskull so this brings back a lot of memories.

    No. It varies from store to store. Most of the ones around me don’t carry TFs.

    ^Saw that Shockwave at Kroger Marketplace today. They also had at least five SS Bumblebee Starscreams, a couple of Hot Rods and Kingdom deluxe wave 2 (minus Huffer). Has anyone seen SS 86 Scourge at Kroger?

    I have yet to see any MOTUO deluxes or carded minis at Tomball Targets. Was in Louisiana on Friday and got GI Joe Classified Flint and Lady Jaye at a Walmart near Lafayette.

    I know this is a TF forum, but I am all for us posting sightings of MOTUO, GI Joe, SW, and ML too as it is helpful to know what is showing up in the state.

    Thanks. I am not going to belabor this too much but I have had my eye on the Battle Armor rendition of Skeletor and He-man. I remember seeing one and was debating picking BA He-man (this was last month I think), hoping to find him again at another store. Alas that was the only time I have seen that figure.
