    Around noon today, I checked all three Ross stores in Santa Clarita. NO Trypticons, nor any other Transformers of note. Good hunting!

    No Trypticons today at Ross in San Mateo, San Carlos or Mountain View. Ross San Mateo has a couple PotP Cindersaur and Battleclash for $6 but no other TFs.

    Found a lone Trypticon at my Ross in Santa Maria. Only one they had. If anyone needs Dani Moonstar, I have 3 extras.

    If you rotate into landscape mode you can usually see additional info like signatures, location, etc. I just discovered that a little while ago.

    Brookhurst Garden Grove Target is overflowing in Shockwaves, Rampages, Rainmakers, Cheetors,And Ark Primes.. Truck Megatron And Jetwing Optimus are shelfwarming but seem to just be streetdate stock. Spy Patrol 1 hit stores recently and most of wave 1Battle/Micromasters have finally hit up so catch up here.

    Hey has anyone seen the NECA Turtles Bebop and Rocksteady 2-pack in stores yet? Just went up online 8 minutes ago and I missed it by 3 minutes.

    As I mentioned in the TMNT thread, I'm skeptical these were ever actually available online, even today. I refreshed the Target app seconds after the notification (my phone was in my hand) and it was already out of stock. It could have sold out near instantly, but I'm skeptical.

    The other sets were in stock when I checked and the Carbonized Mandalorian lasted about 20 seconds so I think it was available.

    I found all 4 sets today at my Target. Only had one of Rocksteady and Bebop. Anyone need Marvel Legends Dani Moonstart (I have 3 extra)?

    Man that set is hard to get. They get eaten so quickly here! I'll keep checking but let me know if you see another set. Additionally, I am mulling over your 3 Moonstars...

    So back to Transformers: Citrus Heights Target, Orangevale Walmart, and both Roseville Walmarts and Targets had nothing new for Siege. Most had Wave 2 and 3 leftovers.

    I would go checking other stores this weekend, but I really don't want to drive in the rain. I think I'm just gonna order Siege Spinister, Rung and Singe online and be done with it. I've got Astrotrain coming from Amazon, and the Wave 5(?) Micromasters coming from an Ebay seller this next week.

    I just found 2 sets of the turtles and the foot soldiers and 0 R&B. Not sure if they put out the entire thing at GG Harbor Target or not. But hopefully more will show up later.

    I think they're sending two cases of each set of four to every Target. At least, that's what it appears to be based on people who've seen the set. Bebop and Rocksteady are going to be a challenge to find.

    If anybody else is as tired of hunting as I am, the latest wave of micromasters is in stock for shipping at Target.com

    I found Siege Crosshairs at Walmart in Santa Maria today, but nothing else in town.
