I should’ve gone this morning to check Bridgeton Walmart like I was tempted to. There’s a Rhinox on the shelf, meaning somebody beat me to Tigatron. :-(

 

Two SS Gnaw at Jefferson City Walmart. There was also 2x SS Jazz but I got one for me and one for a friend.

 

Walmart at Manchester/141 has a lone Rhinox, so another possible Tigatron sellout. Also a ton of Sweeps.

 

One thing to note, in case anyone has missed it. A lot of Walmarts have Christmas displays in the aisles, with sub-$20 toys in cardboard bins. One such bin is filled with Kingdom Core classes. I've seen Optimus, Soundwave, Dracodon, Starscream, and even a Megatron here and there.

 

Grabbed the last Tigateon from Conley Walmart in como. They generally get things first so I would assume grindstone and broadway will have them in the next few days.

 

Eureka Walmart has 3 Rhinoxes and 1 Cyclonus, implying they got a box of each wave and Tigatron’s already gone. Ugh.

 

Just snagged the last Tigatron from Gravois Bluffs Walmart.
Box is smashed but he’s okay.

 

No luck at Bridgeton. I chatted with the Hasbro rep for awhile. I had no idea they come here and stock their stuff from the back! I asked why they’re doing it instead of the store employees and she said because they’re Hasbro and they want the product out on the floor. Can’t argue with that logic! She had a case of Core figures and a case of Leaders, but no Voyagers. Boohoo.

 

Presuming this is the same one, I grabbed him yesterday for @quantumhawk.

 

Thanks Whovian!

If you all are looking at Tiggy in the store and are trying to choose between more than one, check those eyes carefully….

Not sure if it’s “too late” for these, but in Kansas City area looking for either a RED Starscream or Studio Series Hot Rod

unrelated note, girlfriend loves Bumblebee, even if it’s something I need to go to eBay for, any recommendations on a good Bumblebee from the last few years to get her for the holidays?

 

There is a Target exclusive "Worlds Collide" set with 4 figures. Nemesis Primal (repaint of Kingdom Optimus Primal obviously), Blackarachnia (toy accurate redeco of Kingdom Blackarachnia), Fangry (remold of Titans Return Grotusque), and Bumblebee (redeco/new head of Earthrise Cliffjumper). There was a version of that Bumblebee which turned into a VW Beetle like the G1, but it was exclusive to the Walmart Netflix WFC line and is typically fairly expensive to obtain.

Additionally, there was a recent Target Origin Bumblebee which transforms into his vehicle mode from the G1 cartoon MTMTE intro episodes. He's a little fiddly, but looks good and comes with a jetpack and gun, so this may be a good option if she doesn't mind the alt mode not being a car.


Here's a link to RED Coronation Starscream if you want to order one or try to check availability locally (although generally I think the availability only refers to that product line and not the figure itself). But if I were you I would consider just ordering from Hasbro Pulse, so you can order him and Hot Rod together. (Hot Rod is pretty much gone from stores at the moment.)

Transformers Studio Series 86 Voyager The Transformers: The Movie Auto – Hasbro Pulse

Transformers Generations War for Cybertron: Kingdom Deluxe WFC-K24 Wheeljack – Hasbro Pulse (I just saw the wording on this...I have no idea why it says it's Wheeljack, the listing is definitely RED Starscream.)

 

You talking about the one depicting when Laserbeak mimicked Bee's robot mode in the movie?

Transformers Movie The Best MB-EX Laserbeak

 

Stopped by Time Warp Toys earlier this evening and they got a few Tigatrons in. Check over the weekend if you're looking for one.

 

I’ve been out of town for the last week, and it’s not super close, but North Belt Walmart in Saint Joseph has had a couple Starscream sitting on the shelf for a few weeks. I can try to take a look again today when I get back.

 

Alright, now that Kingdom Voyager wave 4 is out, I'll be the first to start obnoxiously asking about Voyager Wave 5 (Blaster) and Deluxe Wave 4 (Slammer and Pipes). All have been spotted at US Walmarts. Who's seen them and why did you not get one for me?

EDIT: Also Buzzworthy Kup and Cliffjumper. Thoughts? Kup looks good but not good enough to warrant replacing my SS one. Cliffjumper on the other hand is nearly perfect, except I don't like the painted windshield...

 

Might be an easy fix with a Gundam panel liner marker, or even a fine point sharpie. Just make the pupils a little bigger.

 

Sorry man, I thought you said "If you see one, get me WANDA" rather than "get me one", so I've been checking the Marvel Legends toys. My bad.
