    Yeah, I'm getting a little antsy for new sightings. The Walmart on 82nd street had a couple of Sideswipes, and they haven't had any Alternators for nearly a month. I don't know if that means they had those two along with a Smokescreen and Silverstreak or if they found a couple of Sideswipes and put them out, but that's the closest evidence I've seen of anything new in the past 1.5 months or so...well, besides Universe Defensor.

    Found Alt. Silverstreak at the Dallas Walmart this afternoon. There was one left after I snagged mine, but they both had pretty trashy boxes.

    That sucks, Smallst.

    According to "Mr. Sporting Goods" I have an Omega Supreme priced at like $53.62 I think he said or some number close to it waiting for me at around 4 at Walmart when i get off work and drive to Medford to get him. He sayed its a "biggun" so he must have the right thing. I pestered the night crew to go looking for him (sinse their telazon said they had 9) for like the last 3 days and it looks like it payed off. Theres supposedly like 5 or 6 more waiting on the shelf as well now. I will update everyone as to the validity of "Mr Sporting Goods" find this evening when I come back. God help him if he lied/was confused to me....

    I will update everyone on my find or the results of the dead sporting goods guy. Either way should be fun! Ill let you guys know tonight!

    :stick

    I just picked up Energon Mirage at Fred Meyer in Corvallis.
    SCORE!
    He is the purest sweetness alive. Okay, maybe not. At least it's something new for a change that DOES NOT SUCK.
    Oh, BTW, there's one more there for someone else.
    They also had HOC's galore, Omega S., Devastator, Megs with Laserbeak.
    Energon: Landmine too.

    Well, I was given the Omega Shaft. But I gave the freaking sporting goods guy a nasty stare.....oh he knew I was royally ticked. So still no Omega but I shant give up. I can't understand how "Unicron" can sound like the same as "Omega Supreme" but apparently it does. Oh well...back to the hunt.

    I didn't think you would find it, we called the Medford Walmart to see if they could hold one for us, and they also mistook "Unicron" for "Omega Supreme." Probably because they are both in the Supreme size class or whatever. Oh well, better luck next time...

    Found Offshoot at the Washington Square Target this morning. No sign of the Strongarm repaint, but they're showing up around here. Also, thanks for the Freddy's tip, Cryotek. I wouldn't normally look there for new Transformers, but I also grabbed Shockblast this morning at the Tigard store (no sign of Cliffjumper, though). Shockblast is an incredible figure. His alt modes are kind of halfassed, but his robot mode more than makes up for them. His pipe-lit eye is incredible. Put it in the sun and it totally glows.

    We went to Roseburg today, and all we got was Energon Unicron at Kmart. My brother had been debating whether or not to get it for quite some, and it turns out he likes it a lot. The Fred Meyer there was out of all the $25 Energon toys, so were going to have someone who worked there check in the back for new stuff, but we pushed the customer service button 3 times and nobody showed up. I was pretty pissed off, but I just decided to leave. :banghead:
