    Checked Bridgeton Target and Walmart, no luck. Target is full up with the previous wave of deluxes, and Walmart is starting to look gutted now that they clearances out all the Beast Wars stuff.

    Everything but the Vintage Rattrap who is still around $20. Primal today is down to $19ish and Cheetor is $8ish which I would say is worth it. Not sure about Megs.

    Definitely have them check the back, many stores are getting at least two cases of deluxes.

    I would have if I wanted pipes. I already have Huffer. Just don't feel the need for pipes.

    Went to Belleville target. A few tigatron and a slug. No slammer or pipes. Fairview didn’t have much of anything.

    I meant to thank you for this post earlier. On Monday, I price matched Primal for $24.XX plus tax for curiosity’s sake, since I didn’t already have that mold. With all the weapons plus the mutant mask, he has a lot of display options. It makes me wish I had bought the Universe version back in the day. (I have Beast Machines T-Wrecks, so I didn’t feel the need to pick up Megatron.)

    Hmm… I’m a bit disappointed I didn’t wait a couple days longer, but I don’t feel like I was robbed paying half price.

    Not sure about Megatron in terms of the current price, or whether he is worth it? If they had re-used the 10th Anniversary or TRU exclusive decos for Primal and Megatron, I probably would have bought both, but it’s still a neat mold — just not as many display options since the dino head and tail claw are permanently attached. (The clearance price online is $18.96.)

    Wentzville Target has 2 Pipes, 1 Slammer (I took the other), and 2 Tigatrons. Also a Gnaw and some Origins Bees if you’re still hunting for those.

    EDIT: Wentzville Walmart also has 1 Slammer and 2 Pipes.

    Brentwood didn’t have pipes or slammer but they had a single core sw I was able to grab so not a total bust.

    edit:
    They had a er scorponok and a bunch of statues. No shortage of toys there though.

    Got Pipes! Thank you!

    I hid Slammer in case anyone wants him. He’s behind a remote control Mario car, same aisle but across from the Marvel Legends toys.

    Arnold Target has one Tigatron
    Arnold Wal-Mart is pretty cleaned out, though they did have a Rodimus prime and plenty reissue primal/megs.
    Telegraph Walmart has a SS Slug, BW reissues and not much else.
    Rusty Rd Target doesn't have anything of note, plus it's impossible to get into/out of
    Fenton Walmart has a Tigatron and a couple of Rhinox, not much else besides core class.
    Last stop for tonight, Fenton Target had one Pipes (now mine), and two Tigatron plus several Origin Bumblebee if anyone is still looking for those.

    Yeah, boy did I find that out when I was there earlier in the week. That parking lot is abysmal.
