    It was 2 days ago and they did have 1 of each left. I would expect the other Roseville target and the Rocklin target to have them show up within the month. Douglas usually gets stuff earlier

    Dang. Ok, thanks. I was thinking of swinging by on my way home from work if you just spotted them today. But they might be gone by now.

    Wasmart in San Leandro off of Davis st had movie strafe, new bee, crosshairs and drift. 2 of each except strafe. Also if anyone in the area needs a six shot there are 2 of him on the shelf along with 2 misfires.

    Thanks, I picked up the Twin Twist. There should still be a Windblade and some Misfires left.

    Walmart at Long Beach Town Center has 1 case of Wave 6. Already got Slugslinger off Amazon so there are 3 up for grabs here. Strangely Wave 5 never showed up here, they went straight to Wave 6. 0805D11F-C56D-463C-8E85-075DB10A0BD2.jpeg

    Thanks from a tipoff from my buddy user Boy Blunder, found and nabbed one of two Slugslingers at Santee Walmart as of 4:30 this afternoon! I nabbed the one on the pegs, and I saw a second one at one of the garden center registers along with a Kup and a Hardhead, I assume someone went to buy them and changed their mind and they just hadn't put them back on the pegs yet. Happy hunting everyone o7

    The case does indeed have 3 Slugslingers, so 13DINO's sighting is probably indicative of a fresh case.

    You are right. I just got the last two at the Long Beach Walmart indicated above. I called to see if they had them in stock. They said they did not but I do not think the lady I talked to put in too much effort so I decided to come on over and low and behold one was on the peg and one was on the above rack.

    I picked up the last Chaos on Velocitron set from the Citrus Heights TRU and I found this inside...

    Sadly I never trust Walmart employees to know what you are talking about/what to look for. Target employees have been pretty good about reliably checking inventory.

    Wow that is some Chaos right there.

    Hey So Cal peeps - I am going to be down there this weekend and was wondering if anyone has been to Frank and Sons lately and if any of the vendors carry a good amount of older Star Wars 6 in. Black Series figures? Thanks

    I'd suggest waiting on the TRU release.

    In addition to Boople’s suggestion, unless you’re looking for the throwback Black Series I’d suggest checking your local Walgreens stores. I’ve found almost every TLJ figure at various stores recently.

    Did find a Titans Returns Wave 6 Slugslinger at the San Jose Walmart (Almaden Expy). One left on the shelves when I was there around lunchtime.
