Jealous, I've yet to come up on a $45 one and am thinking of just giving up at this point

 

These have also been showing up at Walgreens in the past few weeks or so, in the "holiday" toy aisle. Other members have noted finding them while looking for Ratchet...

 

That’s where I found them. They only had one of each.

 

No sightings of Ratchet here in Santa Maria yet. I got one from Canada.

 

Same. Apparently Ratchet will be out tentatively October 10th I believe? Got it from the Walgreens thread.

 

Brickseek shows 2 available at Folsom Walmart but several has checked and it’s no where to be found. It’s either stuck/lost in the pile back room or someone hid it. Then again brickseek isn’t always accurate

 

Yeah it is right next to my work and I've checked a couple times and even had a manager hunt for it, in there system it shows none while brickseek shows 2.

 

Even their Walmart app shows 2 in stock then limited quality to unavailable???? Some weird shiet with their system and brickseek

 

Forgot to mention yesterday. Suisun Walmart has six g1 soundwaves.

 

Yeah there is Walmart at American Canyon showing the same thing. Been asking the past month, but no one can find it.

 

2 Siege Thundercrackers at the Mira Mesa Target in SD, but I was told they wouldn't sell them until 10/6.

 

I hate it when that happens.

 

how is it that people are barely getting thundercracker when ive had mine for over a month now

 

Did you order yours online or buy it in store? Because the one I ordered online I've had since August but yesterday was the first time I saw it out in the wild. Distribution is weird.

 

bawt in store at my local toy addicts here in la mesa back in early august

 

Ah, that explains it. Local collectible stores sometimes get stuff in super early (and sometimes super late). I go to Cape and Cowl in Fountain Valley myself, mainly because driving down to OC is easier than driving up around LA.

 

Local comic shops like Toy Addicts don't have to adhere to release schedules like Target and Walmart usually have to.

 

Found a Siege Megatron, Hound, and Brunt at Story Rd Walmart. Couldn’t find Jetfire for $45 or even one at all. Instead, I just picked up the last Thundercracker. I’m happy but I wish he didn’t have the smirking face.  

 

Would also like to add that Capitol & McKee Rd Target has a Thundercracker as well with a smirking face. There’s also a bunch of Shockwaves. Rainmakers are present and the Minicon Team are also there. Studio Series Long Haul, KSI Boss, Rampage, DoTM Megatron are also there.
