    For local SoCal… I have a Kingdom Rhinox ($33) and Kingdom Scorponok ($22) I want to return, but if someone wants the, we can meet up locally - Alhambra or Pasadena Target

    I also have 3 SS Scourge ($32 ea) if anyone is interested - not sure if I can still return these though - past three months, I think

    At that point, you’ll be living in their house, not the other way around.

    College Grove Walmart has nothing of note.

    College Grove Target has a Core Prime, a Core Megatron, 2 Dracodons, a Barricade pack, and 7 Thrusts. Ross nearby has nothing.

    Mission Valley Target has a Stinger set, a Jazz, and 2 B-127s (for some reason.)

    Sports Arena Target has 4 Core Primes, a Dracodon, 3 Thrusts, and a Stinger pack. Ross nearby has nothing.

    Clairemont Walmart only has RED; 3 Cheetors, 3 Bumblebees, and 2 Starscreams.

    Othello Target has a Core Prime, 2 Dracodons, 2 Wingfingers, one each of the Buzzworthy 2-packs, 2 Thrusts, and a Worlds Collide set.

    Balboa Target has 3 Barricade packs and a Dropkick pack.

    got two more new destiny cards from the Kingdom series...that means I'm three short of a full set and only one more new release (Tigatron) that we know of...

    wish they were more evenly distributed...seems like I got a lot of Arks and Optimus at the start...and Megatron has only been released in the last wave-ish?

    Apparently a new wave of Star Wars Vintage hit CA today. It’s the one with Lando in it.

    Distribution is a mess across the board for Hasbro at the moment isn't it lol. I only have the Ahsoka and Maul from the last TVC wave thanks to Amazon preorders and the wave that's hitting now wasn't scheduled to be released till February 2022 I think. Transformers have Kingdom wave 4 hitting with no official announcement and Im pretty sure Marvel Legends has like 4 different waves hitting that were meant to be spaced out between now and February with the latest being the Spiderman No Way Home wave hitting Walmart.

    Yeah. GameStop got the Disney Plus Wave a few days back, and some of the Eternals one too.

    Nothing good out today at the Jefferson or Fox Hills Targets. An Ark, couple BB/Barricade sets.

    Saw some unwanted remnants of a couple new waves from other toylines; DKR Armored Batman from McFarlane, and the rest of the. Amy wave from Sonic the Hedgehog (no Amy, natch).

    are you peeling away the holofoil part of the card and collecting each destiny or just collecting 1 version of each character?

    nothing new at target Irvine spectrum
