    i currently work for target and today was the first day my store got in any TFs that werent botshots. it was a huge box and i was very happy ... until i read, "tra mv deluxe 2 pack" or something to that avail and it was a hasbro box to boot.

    havent seen any new TF in awhile, though optimus maximus is on clearance ...

    Target Manalapan got a case of Wave 6 PRID deluxes. 1-2 Vehicons on the pegs, plus a Kup. Pretty sure Thundertron and Magnus are on the shelf as well. There's a Thundertron somewhere in the back room too.

    Also, it looks like EVERY TF at Target is on sale through Saturday. Not by much- 10-15% I think, but it's something.

    Thanks for the heads up on the unadvertised sale. I went in and got price adjustments on Thundertron and Magnus down to $18 and change each. There's also a coupon for $10 coupon if you spend $50 and over.

    Went to Secaucus today, the TRU is PACKED--I mean PACKED with GDO Powerdive and Megatron. Right around the corner of the aisle is a shelf FILLED with 'em. No Prime Deluxes whatsoever, seems the sale really got em picked off the shelves. Also no FE Voyagers in sight. Tons of Generations stuff (the usual Wheeljack, Warpath, Sky/Dark Shadow.

    I also checked the Kohl's and didn't spot ANY Tfs... was really looking forward to finding that Jazz and other stuff someone reported. The TJ Maxx only has a Generations Wheeljack left and tons of Kreo stuff

    Picked up a voyager Dreadwing, UM, and Thundertron at Riverdale Target for $17.99 ea on the last day of the sale. There is 1 Thundertron left if you can get there by closing.

    TRU in Totowa was a complete waste, the TF section was wiped out. No generations and a few Prime deluxes, that was it.

    TRU North Bergen had a case of Prime Voyagers wayyyyyy up high. I asked the guy to get them down for me and I found an Ultra Magnus and a Thundertron. Even though I have both I decided to take advantage of the BOGOHO sale. Then changed my mind. The moral of the story is that there is a UM and Thundertron behind some OP masks on the shelf at knee level. Happy hunting!

    Jersey City Target has 2 Thundertrons and 2 Ultra Magnus. Not much else of interest. TRU on Rt 440 and WM in Bayonne didn't have anything new.

    In Secaucus, there was a Hotspot sitting there front and center below the pegs as of closing time. He'll probably still be there when the store opens. I spotted a Hotspot at Totowa as well earlier in the day, but by the time I went back to give the pegs a second look, it was gone.

    Target sale is way cheaper even with BOGOHO since TRU are selling the Prime Voyagers for $26.99 (plus Target also has bonus $10 coupon if you buy $50). Thundertron and Magnus seem much easier to find in Targets. But you did a good thing regardless by leaving them in the store. I left two Hotspots out there as well.

    Seen them on and off TRU.com

    Might be the way to go rather than take a trip out for nothing.

    Jersey City Target had a vehicon on the pegs (behind one fo the front deluxes) and also 2 Thundertrons and an Ultra magnus, as far as I could tell. I picked up a Thundertron, but odds are, from how crowded the area was, that there were more Ultra Magnus' there as well.

    Also, not sightings related but still fun to mention, Skyquake has been spotted in the Phillipines I believe, so =D if you're like me, you'll be happy and lookin for him!

Kmart in wayne has ridculous prices on their deluxes 19 bucks + tax but is on sale buy two get one free, nothing else to report except it too was a madhouse, guys do you know any good toysrus's cuz wayne sucks and never has anything, it must be within bergen or passaic county
