    New Britian Target has Bot Shots wave 2 Mirage, Brawl, Ratchet, Barricade, Bumblebee and Optimus Prime.

    P.S. West Hartford TRU has Marvel and DC Universe Super Heros LEGO figures if anyone is looking for them.

    One each of Commander Ironhide and Dreadwing at Bethel Target. And the Wave 2 Bot Shots are still there (I've been tempted by Ratchet and Mirage, though).

    I thought Kmart had some nice prices on Kre-O. These had temporary price cut tags.
    Optimus - $26.99, Sideswipe - $8.99, BB - $9.99, Megs - $17.99,
    Starscream - $14.99, Prowl - $8.99 (?)
    Sent. Prime also had a similar markdown.

    The smaller sets like Mirage, BB, and Optimus were about $1 or $2 off regular price.

    I got there too late and missed out on Knockout, but I got Arcee. There were two Hot Shots as well.

    There's another Deluxe Soundwave at Bethel Target.... and no evidence of it being from a Wave 2 case. Somehow this doesn't surprise me since my store never got past Wave 1 PCCs 2-packs and got RTS Wave 1 once...

    Ran around Waterbury again today looking for Vehicons, found nada. I started to realize that over the last two weeks I've used about a tank of gas looking for these damn things (approximately $50 in my car)... So I just bit the bullet and bought a scalped one on ebay before I use enough gas to buy three or four of these things at scalpers prices.

    Buying brick and mortar is a bad investment in CT if you're an impatient type like me... ;)

    Me neither. Haven't seen any wave 2 PRID in Waterbury. If I do, I'll PM you.

    Thanks.

    I hate being so panicky about it, but I'm worried that if I keep up the full-court press and check all the local stores 2-3 times per week I'll spend a ton on gas and put unnecessary wear and tear on my aging car; and if I don't and only check stores when I happen to be at or near one I'll never find any Vehicons, as I never saw wave 2 at retail either.

    I am leaning toward that idea, as well. I cannot keep searching high and low nearly every day. My gas costs have doubled, and there are Lord of the Ring Lego sets to think of...

    I saw Voyager Starscream and Bulkhead for the first time today at Torrington Walmart. Bought the Bulkhead, left the Starscream. I can't get into Starscream's Prime look.

    Crap- went hunting all the usual areas today, except Torrington. Oh well, maybe it'll still be there tomorrow. For the record, nothing new in Southington Walmart or Target, or Waterbury Walmart, Target or TRU.
