    I was able to find Wingfinger at Toy Hunters in Ontario today. They had a few more and also Tracks for any looking. Looks like they got some new secondhand and third party in as well. I had to behave as the wife was with me. LoL

    Not a sighting, but I got my Maximal Skywarp and Sideswipe set from Amazon today, and amazon packaged it *shockingly* well!

    Sideswipe has some loose joints, his left leg especially at the knee is loose, weird after how incredibly stiff Red Alert was. Nothing some top coat can't fix.

    I stopped at Gamerunners in Kettering last week, they have alot of transformers in from a collection. Saw a lot of Japanese BWII stuff. I picked up a BWII BB and Starscream.

    I was there recently, and it was nice to see that since they usually have a pretty sparse tf selection. However, they tend to severely overprice their transformers too, which is a shame. Stuff tends to sit there forever because of it.

    Visiting The Land for the weekend and the 86 gnaw sightings got me searching this morning. I thought the DC area Walmarts were destitute wastelands but NE Ohio’s are even worse! Hit up 4 Walmarts from Steelyard to Middleburg Heights and each was sadder than the last. Hell, 2 stores didn’t even have Cyberverse crap, which is practically all you see most places these days. Middleburg had approx 12 kingdom deluxes, which at least gave me some initial hope from far away, but they were ALL cheetor and black arachnia… My Buckeye brethren, please accept my condolences for the current state of affairs in your toy aisles.

    Yeah Ohio is really empty right now, even some of the toy stores I've gone to don't have a lot that I want

    Also got my Sideswipe/Skywarp set. Sideswipe has a nice scratch in his roof paint, otherwise good.
    Haven't seen much in person around town. However if I can ask during this drought, if anyone in central Ohio sees the Marvel Legends Infinity Saga versions of Endgame Thor, Quicksilver, or MK III Iron Man, a tip would be greatly appreciated :D

    I'd appreciate if anyone would give a shout if they spot a Mindwipe in good shape anywhere in the vicinity of Columbus, North, or South. Thank you.

    Whoever it was that said Sandusky Meijer still had SkyLynx a few months back, HUGE thank you!!! There were 3, picked up one for me (thrilled!) and 1 for my brother (birthday today, he lucked out), and there’s still one left. Finding that guy in the wild, even if it was a guided hunt, was an amazing feeling after wandering these bone fields the past few months. Thank you again!

    Yeah I think that was when I was searching for Rodimus. System couldn't distinguish between different commanders. Glad somebody took advantage of that. I actually work at a Meijer now since then, patiently waiting for Transformers stock. Its been nothing but Grimlock for weeks.

    I found a lone Paleotrex at Georgesville Rd Walmart. It had a date stamp of spring/summer of this year, so it's very likely I missed the Tracks/Waspinator/Shadowpanther of Wave 4. They might be in Ohio, if I'm sleuthing this out correctly.

    They hit Michigan a month ago or so, so they've probably hit Ohio.

    A month ago? But, like, the first sighting was yesterday. Where's this Michigan sighting?

    I got Tracks at the Monroe, MI Walmart, saw the entire wave but I only wanted Tracks (I was first to the sealed case on the pallet when it was sitting at the toy aisle) Unless Tracks was in Wave 3 too, in which case whoops my bad. I just know I found him and ignored the rest of them.
