    Not to mention that Target (in the Des Moines area at least) have dropped the prices on deluxes. I don't mind the smaller deluxe size but I would much rather pay $12.99 than $15.99 for them.

    I'm going crazy. New Generations are showing up all over Iowa and Illinois for days now and still nothing here in the QC area. Hell, to date the only Beast Hunters Shockwave I've ever seen in person is the one I found and bought last week. We're like a dead zone lately.

    No sign of Springer or Blitzwing on the shelves or in the stockroom at either the south side Des Moines Target or the Ankeny Target. :( 

    The hunt continues...

    Good thing my preorder just came in from BBTS. I've been out of town so not able to track Springer or Blitzwing down.

    I cancelled my BBTS preorder as I found and got Springer today.

    Check Targets, they seem to be getting them.

    I saw a Beast Hunters Ratchet at the Jordan Creek Target last night but the rest of the wave was gone. At least they're out in the wild.

    I was at the Wal Mart in Anamosa this past weekend and they had most of the newer Generations Fall of Cybertron's including Kickback, if you ever get out that way.

    I picked up one of the Shockwave from TRU in CR, they had one more as of 1pm this afternoon. They also had a couple Predakings, and Beast Hunters Optimus. Along with a couple Thundercrakers. LOL Wish they would've gotten Optimus...

    I just may have to make a trip out there thanks:) , but went out again in CR and went in to Kmart of all places and found my cyberverse hun-gur here's the weird thing it was 5 bucks for it cheaper for some reason may have to go back and get prowl also generation voyagers are 20 bucks don't know if they will get anything past soundwave but worth a look now.

    Still can't find Springer and Blitzwing around the QC. After reading sightings from a few other states I decided to widen my search to include stores other than Target. I didn't find the triple-changers but I did find that every K-Mart I went to (Rock Island and Davenport) did have BH Shockwave.

    A few Springers and Blitzwings spotted @ the Target in Dubuque, Iowa.

    Also if anyone is nearby check this thread for a special movie screening of TF: The Movie 1986!

    3 weeks after the rest of the state I finally found Springer and Blitzwing at the Moline IL Wal-mart today. There was one each left on the shelf as of 1pm. Can't wait to get home and open these guys up.
