    I saw Megaman NT Warrior trading cards from 2004 in West Broad Ollies. Where the hell did they come from?

    Companies are gutting their warehouses for stuff to put on the shelves due to the shipping crisis. They were probably covered in six inches of dust on the pallet.

    Would explain the old Bakugan at the Powhatan Walmart and then Chaotic card storage box from 2008 I just found at Shortpump Walmart. Speaking of, nothing at Shortpump Walmart.

    Much thanks to you - I was able to pick up him and Slammer last night. They have a ton of Slammers there. Which makes me wonder if they’re buying up all of the stock so that they can up charge it.

    But what kind of sucker would pay a higher price when it’ll be in Target soo…oh wait. Damn.

    Stopped by Skyline and Seven Corners Targets. Nothing super worthy of mention at either, except that Skyline had one Tigatron.

    Not a toy sight but one weird as find. Saturday night at the Powhatan Walmart I saw an instant cup pumpkin spice flavored ramen.

    Who the hell wanted this and who is willing to try it.

    TS Echo Base doesn't have any more Blasters today, but they do have a bunch of SS Bumblebee Soundwaves and a TON of Slammers.

    Chantilly Target has a few Tigatrons.

    I'd have to try it if I saw it, on principle. I wouldn't really expect it to be good, lol.

    Echo Base had two Soundwaves when I was there around noon. Did not pick one up; at $36.99 I can wait for Pulse to ship me one.

    Have you ever purchased anything from Zavvi before? I already have Kingdom Red Alert, but I was thinking of purchasing something else off of there. I'm not sure how much I trust it though. Also I'm not sure if they are offering US releases or foreign releases of action figures.

    This is my first order, but from member’s posts on other threads they seem to have good luck with Zavvi.

    Zavvi (US Customers)

    I won a 150.00 giftcard for Zavvi from a Youtuber (Laura Legends) about a year ago. I used it to buy a bunch of the Generations Selects figures and their shipping was faster and more reliable than most US retailers! I got my figures in less than a week! I totally would recommend them.

    Nothing new at Skyline Target. Seven Corners Target has a bunch of those Golden Lagoon Megatron ReAction figures. [Edit: 4 Megatrons, but the 1 at the back was Optimus.]

    I went by Carmia Way ToysRUs in Chesterfield when they were closing down in 2018 on one of the last days they were open and they had Spider-Man 2 (like Tobey McGuire Spider-Man 2) Stationary sets (pen and notepad sort of thing) on the shelf. Those things had probably lost behind a shelf somewhere in that place for well over a decade.

    Ashland Walmart has two Bumblebee Movie Soundwaves. VCC Target didn't have any Transformers, but they did have three each of Classified B.A.T.s and AVs. I already got mine elsewhere so I left them.

    Was it the ProtoMan.EXE and Pharaohman.EXE ones? Or a different ones? Williamsburg Ollie’s had those 2 so I bought them for my MegaMan.EXE collection, but they did not have any of the others.

    Nothing new at Fair Lakes Target, although it's worth noting that a bunch of random TF stuff was moved to a clearance(?) endcap.

    Fair Lakes Walmart has like 4 Sweeps and a ton of the reissue BW Megs and Optimus.
