    You guys looking for Mirage better start hitting up some stores RIGHT at opening. I overheard some scalpers at Walmart talking about how hot Alt Prime and Mirage is on the secondary market...

    Found Menasor, the new deluxes of Optimus Prime, Unicron, and Demolisher at the Laguna Niguel Walmart. They had one Menasor, two Optimus Prime, one Unicron, and two Demolishers in stock. I took one of the optimus primes and the unicron. They also had two of each of the Wing Saber and Sky Shadow as well. Went Mission Viejo and Tustin TRU and they had nothing new. Went to Huntington Beach East, Costa Mesa Greatland, Irvine North, Irvine (Barranca pkwy), and Laguna Niguel Targets and they had nothing new.

    Hey Cataclizm1, when you found the mirage at the Torrance Walmart were there other alternators from the day before or prior there as well. Bascially was the shelf empty the last time before you found the mirage. Every Target I am going to has big fat empty spaces for the alternators or they clogging other crap from superman to star wars to fill up the space. The Targets that are dilligent and are doing research on the items aka the grey dots on the shelves, usually get items in 3-5 days, but there has been nothing for weeks, which is rathering suprising. The couple of Walmarts I go to need to be bone dry for weeks before they have any inclination to order anymore, and even then solve even doing that by filling up the spot with every conceivable kind of "toy crap" imaginable. I personally want to slap these people that are managing these toy aisles.

    Well maybe not slap them, just stick out my tongue and give them a mean look. You know, a little better decor than what be given by those damn Hot Wheels collectors I have deal with when I hunt.

    TRU City of Industry/ Puente hills, nothing
    Target City of Industry nothing
    Target La Verne Nothing
    Target San Dimas Nothing

    TRU Covina HAD Primus because the sticker w/ price was there but there were none.

    TRU Monorvia/ Duarte Had Primus but same as above.

    Walmart Covina next to the TRU has 2x Demolisher, but no Optimus Primes or Unicrons.

    Walmart Baldwin Park nothing new.

    Well I am still looking for Optimus and mirage Alt., Primus w/ unicron head, Unicron, and Menisor (sp?). If anyone who checks these same stores sees any of these let me know.
    thanks
