    I haven't visited a Walmart in awhile, so today I checked the one in Casselberry off 436. It was super stocked, just nothing I was looking for. I'm on the lookout for Galaxy Shuttle and Crasher once they are out.

    I did find the 'affordable' toy display they put out between aisles. It's way in the back left corner of the store. Plenty of the newest waves of Cores for both Studio Series and Legacy.

    Stuck with that that, those beast wars repaints, the shelf warmers of Velocitron and SS starscream and sweeps for the most part.

    Oakleaf town center Ross has 3 kingdom beast wars megatrons and 1 vintage Scorponok. Have some slammers, blackarachnia and Airazor and of course Rhinox and kingdom tigatron.

    I know St. John town center Ross had 2 sideswipe/Skywarp pack, 1 core bumblebee set, and pipes along with the above kingdom deluxes and voyagers. Many slammers for sure

    The Walmart by Waterford Lakes in Orlando has Crasher and Shadowstrip! Lots of other pallets they're trying to get on the shelves, but I didn't see Galaxy Shuttle on any of them.

    Seen vintage reissue wolfang and Retrax along with wave 3 SS cores, wave 2 legacy cores at the Walmart on Collins. Holiday transformers at Walmart being ones that have been available online and target for months even at a discount at some points… so great. I don’t want to hear anyone saying they missed out on these

    Land of Lakes/lutz Walmart has one velocitron scourge, one SS wheelie, one legacy blitz and two of the drag strip repaint. None of the boxes are in great shape, except for scourge and blitz.

    103rd Walmart has a bunch of SS core wave 3, legacy core wave 2, 1 cyber shark with some vintage terrorsaurs (no wolfang/Retrax). No new velocitron figures

    Target on County line Road in North Tampa, off of Bruce B Downs has armada Starscream and studio series Ironhide. One of each.

    Walmart in new Tampa (Bruce b Downs) has one leader blitz and the beast wars display. Also has the small dump bin of legends as you come in the door. Six wheelies and two ratchets

    Wesley Chapel Walmart has two blitz, scourge still and I found the dump bins over by the garden center. There are tons of everything.

    For those who have gone to Target Yesterday/Today. Have you seen any Tonkanators?

    I got mine shipped from Target only for it to arrive missing a gun :^)

    And of course they're Sold Out now and the website is telling me no stores in the area have it anymore either :^))))

    I'm still waiting for my $40 one to ship. The date just keeps getting pushed back and pushed back so I'm wondering if this is one of those they oversold and are going to cancel on me :(

    Most of the Tampa stores have a few of them on the shelf or had them in the last few days. With the 25 off 100 they might be moving again.
