    This isn't exactly related to TF sightings, but does anybody know of some decent hobby shops in The Woodlands/Conroe area that would actually carry paint for customizing? All the ones I've called so far really only carry RC car supplies, and I'd really like to find a local alternative to Hobby Lobby.

    Thanks!

    Spotted most BH deluxe figures at a Kingwood Walgreens today. They were sitting in front of a prime ratchet and vehicon. Didn't think Walgreens would have them this soon.

    The only place I know is swords and super heroes in kingwood. They have warhammer stuff and board games and carry paint to paint the warhammer figures.

    Hey man, thanks for the info! That's actually a lot closer than I was expecting - just a quick shot down 59 for me. I honestly wasn't expecting to find anywhere that close. If they carry the paint for warhammer stuff, they should have what I'm looking for. Appreciate it!

    I don't live far from there but have never been to this place. What all do they have? I got the impression it was mostly card games and comics. Do they have any figures?

    San Antonians It Has Begun - Prime figures at second retail stores. At the Ross, its across the street from a Barnes and Noble, near 1604 down from Walmart in that area (if you know bus route 648) that Ross had 1 deluxe Vehicon. The Marshalls that around the block of an HEB in that area had 1 voyager Starscream too.

    I picked up FOC Grimlock at the 1431 Wal-Mart in Cedar Park today. It was the only one there.

    Long time, no post...Anyways - For anyone out in El Paso. Review of the last week:

    TRU - West. Found 3 FoC Voyager Grimlocks. Picked up one. However, no Blaster was available.

    TRU - East. Stock remained the same, besides the various Deluxes hanging. But had the new Kreon combiners on shelf. Picked up the only one - Devastator.

    Target(s) - overall, stock remains constant to light in the area. Saw the new Prime voyagers at one location (Prime/Predaking) No sign of Kre-o since their resets.. :/

    Walmart(s) - (Too many in our area, was only able to see 3) slowly, getting stuff back onto the shelfs, same thing in regards to Kre-o..

    Marshalls/Ross - Spotted a lone PRiD Vehicon at a Ross location, and a Voyager Starscream at Marshalls. Hopefully a sign that the Prime figures are gonna show up, if you missed out on previous waves.


    That's all for now.

    Nice score!

    I hit College Station Target yesterday and they were fully stocked on Prime Beast Hunters Cyberverse Legion, Deluxe, and Voyager wave 1 as well as FOC Generations Voyager (3 Soundwaves and 1 Soundblaster) and Data Discs wave 1 (Frenzy/Rumble, Ravage, Ratbat).

    The College Station Ross was cleaned out and the Big Lots next door still had some Generations mini-cons.
