Target in Greenwood got in 4 cases of Wave 1.5 Ultras. 2 Scorponok and 1 Tidal Wave per case. 5 Scorponoks and 2 Tidal Waves left on the shelf. Go Get 'em, boys!

Indianapolis: To round out the big TF sightings day in Indy, There is one Energon Unicron remaining at the W. 38th St. Meijer store. Another
Blast it. I was just at that Meijer 30 minutes ago and it was gone. Of course, I wasn't looking for it, so maybe I just missed it. Oh well, E Unicron will probably be pretty easy to find eventually. I saw the Energon Basics there, but I already picked those up. Some of the Transformers sections in area stores have been pretty sparse lately. I was at the TRU Castleton around 6, and they had virtually nothing left. I did see the Energon Jetfires and reissue Smokescreens. The Meijer in Muncie (or was that the Meijer on 96th St? I've been to so many stores today that I lost track) got in a bunch of Tankor/Obsidians and DepthCharges, so I picked some of those up. They didn't have much else, though. I picked up some of the 30% off BTR at 38th St TRU. They've sold through a ton of TF toys compared to what they had a few days ago. So whats on sale locally? Here's what I know of: Meijer- Minicons on clearance for $5.xx Meijer- Maxcons on clearance for $17.xx Meijer- Gigacons on clearance for $22.xx TRU- BTR on sale for 30% off TRU- Supercon + bonus Minicon packs marked down to $9.99 Any other good sales that I'm missing?
BTW, if anyone sees any more Fleer cards boxes (6 packs in a box), please let either glhboy or myself know. We each found a box last night, and these cards are of the highest quality. I would like to complete the set, but need to find more first. Thanks. another
New toy Setup at the Lafayette Target. Sticker there for Alternators, but none there. Energon Basics, Deluxes (No Decepticons eerily), and Megas (TW and Scorpie). With the Alternator sticker there, without any alternators, and no deceps in the early numbered Deluxes it makes me think I've got a scalper about.
More Energon for Indy north-siders! Target in Carmel/Westfield (US31 & 151st) had Ultras (3 Scorpies & 2 TWs - no UMs), plus a good number of Basics as of 2PM yesterday. No Alternators yet. (Sorry for the belated post.) -Jarodimus <b>EDIT:</b> BTW, those numbers are <i>after</i> I made my Scorpy purchase. Scorponok ownz j00, just so you know. Hoping to hold off on TW until markdowns....
Went back to my Target and W*M on a whim with my bro. The gods of the hunt were with us. He snagged a Rapid Run as he missed Sideways in Armada, and I got my Smokescreen. He was cast aside from TFs, and I rescued him.
The Wal-Mart in Kendallville finally got in its first batch of Energon yesterday: two cases of wave 1.5 deluxes (Hot Shot, Inferno, Starscream), and one case each of wave 1.5 megas (Ironhide, Jetfire), wave 1 supers (Optimus), and wave 1 supremes (Unicron).
Rapid Run in Greenwood! Found Rapid Run at the Wal-Mart in Greenwood (quite a few left), and one left at the TRU there. (around 1:30pm) At the Wal-Mart, they have 2 endcaps full of Energon, one with basics, and one with deluxes. They had some Alternator Smokescreens, too. If anyone figures out how to tell a no-mouth-Prime from a mouth-Prime without opening the box, please let me know... I found a date code on the actual toy, but none on the box, and the one on the toy isn't visible unless you take it out of the box to look...
Unfortunately, there's no way to tell without opening the toy unless you take it out of the shipping case yourself. The ones in Kendallville were the updated no-mouth versions and the shipping case's date code was 33151.
Thanks, Jon... I'll try to catch them stocking some night so I can find one... Also, I found a few more Rapid Runs tonight at the Wal-Mart in Lawrence, IN after visiting some family... Jeff
I saw on the front page that it said there were no Energon Optimus Prime's with the mouthplate in the US - this is not true. We bought my nephew a E-Prime (with mouth on plate) for Christmas, so...obviously, its a mixed bunch.
