    I always hear that a reset is coming, a reset is coming.. but the figures never show up. It's just empty all the time.

    If you want, welcome to apply. I can tell you from ample experience, consumable departments(that's grocery, paper goods, health and beauty and pharmacy) take priority for stocking after the shelf plans are set. If grocery trucks are heavy, it may be awhile before someone gets through all the toy pallets. That's the downfall of an entire department(not to mention large parts of the store) resetting after the holiday

    Walmart in Homestead finally did the reset and got in some of the deluxes.
    Megatron, Bee, and Twitch.
    I picked up a Twitch 'cause I can't get over how much she looks like a Megaman.
    Target had these a week ago, but I only saw Megatron and Bee.

    Both stores had some of those big spinner whatevers, too.

    They also had those little flip open doodads that look somehow even more half-assed than the average bakugan.

    I haven't bought anything else from Earthspark other than 1-Step Optimus. But I did buy these.

    It may not be understood but they can stand on a desk, no finger required. They all stand about 2.5 inches tall. there's no spring in them but they are geared so that you flip the black panel to unfold them for the transformation. They make great work desk bots. I think I'll buy wave 2 whenever that hits.
