    Here's what I found at the Columbus Target Greatland store. There were a lot of Supercon Optimus Primes and Smokescreens. I saw Galvatron and Super Base Optimus Prime. The only MiniCon teams they had were the sea team and adventure team. I expected Thrust, Demolishor, or maybe Powerlinx Prime, but I guess there was none. Anywho, couldn't find any G1 Prime reissues or G1 Starscream reissues. I got myself a Supercon Prime, making it my first Prime figure. I'll try and check TRU when I get the chance.

    TRU is kind of upsetting me here. i have tried 6 different TRU's: 3 in Toledo, 1 in sandusky, and couple back in cleveland. none of them have skywarp and red alert! whats going on here? did they lose the boxes or something? they have plenty of prowl's, but none of the other guys? any luck to areas around toledo? later guys

    utmustang...I just called the TRU on Reynolds Road, and the person there said that had a bunch of Series IV Red Alerts...might be worth checking out...I'll head up there in a few hours to grab one.

    TRU on Reynolds Road in Toledo does indeed have a ton of Series IV Red Alerts...no Skywarps, though.

    The Walmart here in BG has Reptilion, Snarl, and Silverbolt from TF: Universe. I saw on the Seibertron boards that Wheeljack has been spotted at a Target (California, I think)...time to start scouring even more...

    Just went to my Toys R Us yesterday in Columbus near Odd Lots. They had a bunch of Armada Smokescreens. :eek:  I saw Armada Galvatron and Demolishor, but no Armada Thrust. :cry  The MiniCons were mostly waves 3 and 4. There were a lot of Commemoritive series III G1 toys. I picked up Thundercracker just for the heck of it, considering there were no G1 Primes, just his Powermaster version, or Starscream. I also saw G1 Commemoritive Skywarp, Red Alert, Prowl, and especially Silverstreak, who I wanted so badly.:mad:  Sadly, I didn't have enough money for him when I got Thundercracker. Oh well, I guess when I go on vacation to California on the 12th to the 20th, I'll spend my $100 spending money to buy Silverstreak, and Maybe Skywarp too.

    After reading the general news about the TRU expansion on Transformers, the TRU in Parma has already extended their display area. Alot of Scavengers, Red Alerts, Galvatrons, Mini Cons (mostly the latest wave), and all of the CSII, CSIII, and Prowl From CSIV. No G1 Red Alert, or Skywarp. Not to many Megs, or Jetfires.
