    Don't remind of the New Lenox Walmart. That place never has Transformers at all. I tend to find some of my stuff at the Target, but I have just been doing a lot of my pre-orders through BBTS even though they suck at times.

    I went to so many Targets today hunting for origin Bee, Ark, Rodimus Prime, and Dinobot Slag (it’s Slag, not Slug, not Slog…. Slag!), but Joliet, Plainfield (North and South), nor Oswego had any. They had a smattering of Buzzworthy stuff, and I think it was the Plainfield location on 127 that had T Wrecks out. I passed on T Wrecks cuz I have megatron and preordered the JP set… don’t really need a 3rd of that mold.

    On a separate note, I had yet to see a single next gen Game system, but today, the Oswego Walmart had TWO Xbox Series S consoles on the shelf, $299. I’m holding out for a Series X, and still haven’t seen a PS5 (either version, but I want the Disc version) except for the Display model at Best Buy (such a tease)!

    I saw 2 TWrecks at Wood Dale yesterday but that was it. I was looking for AEW Unrivaled which they apparently had at Glendale Heights but are awaiting the reset.

    If anyone sees the Unrivaled Darby, I’d appreciate it.

    The coolest thing happened with my World's Collide Fangry! He had his head on in robot mode and when transforming him to winged wolf mode I discovered another Brisko in his beast chest. 2 Briskos! I feel like I got a Golden Ticket or something.

    There are some Worlds Collide sets at Shorewood Target. I hate how loose these joints are; and why does the box have HOLES at the top!? Dust and cobwebs included.

    Urbana/ Champaign IL
    Urbana Meijer: Only Studio Series 86 Grimlocks (like 6 of them)
    Champaign Target: 2 Buzzworthy Bees Origins and some of the smaller Buzzworthy 2 packs
    Champaign Walmart: BW Megatron and Kingdom Magnus. Plenty of the Core figures with only 1 Soundwave.
    Urbana Walmart- Some RED figures like Megatron, Cheetor, and Arcee. Sparkles Bot and More Cheetos and Deep Cover.

    Not huge in-demand figures, but retail price nonetheless in case they aren't around anyone else.
