    Pleasant Hill Gamestop had 2x SS 48 leader Megatron (“As Seen In Parks”), a vintage Darth Maul and remnants of the Ursa Major Legends wave. Picked up Star-T’Challa, but he was the only one of that wave.

    If I didn’t already have the previous release of that Megatron and it had a voice chip, I’d think long and hard about getting that Megs. The insult game of theme park Megatron is forged to perfection.

    Target SF West with some stuff, SS and Kingdom Wave 4 have some shelf presence but no hot items.
    Surprised to see an SS Blitzwing though.

    Target at the plant (San Jose):
    1x Masterverse Faker left (box damaged)... make sure you price match target.com ($19.99)
    Plenty of GI Joe Breaker in the back (you need to get the right person... some flat out said they didn't have any).

    Found the second NECA TMNT Frogs set at the Manhattan Beach Target tonight. They only had the one, so this is more of a "they're in the area" heads up.

    They had a couple of Marvel Legends Mobius too, but I think somebody grabbed one of them as I was leaving.

    I couldn't figure how someone could order for pickup but they did....

    This might be a tough item at only 2 or three per case, fairly large, fairly expensive...stores might not be ordering giant amounts of these ..I have a bad feeling about this...

    Gotta hope they put them online to ship...

    BTW one batman 66 at Tanforan

    Noting was at serramonte

    No new Transformers or really any at Target San Ramon but they did have 2 of the McFarland DC Multiverse Green Lantern 2-pack. Left both tho cuz they both had terrible pain apps on Hal's face. They also had a bunch of Marvel Legends Eternals figures. They also have some new Gundam models.

    EDIT: Sac's pretty dead. If you need a Thrust for $26, a dropkick 2 pack or a stinger 2 pack, stop by the target off Fulton Ave. If you still need a SS86 Hot Rod for $26, go to the Target on 4th Ave. They have 5.

    Anyone sighted Slug, Waspinator or Shadow panther in the Sac area recently? My slug from Amazon arrived with the box retaped and with the right leg ratchet utterly destroyed, with pieces rattling inside. Amazon's showing at least a month before a replacement ships...

    The right. It won't ratchet at all and when I shake it I hear something rattling inside it. I'm pretty sure someone broke it and sent it back to Amazon. The box was pretty torn up as well, but not in a shipping sort of way but as in someone opened it once already sort of way. No biggy as long as I get it eventually.
