    Ebay:
    Homestead Walmart has 1 Blackarachnia and 2 Paleotrex. 3 RED Megatron, 1 OP, and 1 Soundwave.

    They also had 3 retro Dukes (yikes!) and 1 Retro SE. looks like I missed Scarlett and RB.

    Kendall Target has 1 Warpat, 2 Paleotrex, 1 Leader OP, and 1 Leader Grimlock. I passed on Grimlock. It doesn’t look like it’s worth $50.
    Kendall Walmart has the same crap as I’ve been reporting for the last 3 weeks... except less Netflix Elita-1s.

    2 Questions for the Floridians here:

    Any good collectible stores in the Orlando area?

    Also, do any of the Disney parks or Downtown Disney sell Star Wars black series?

    Thanks!

    1.) Yes! Gods & Monsters, ACME, Mike’s Comics, and Coliseum of Comics, just to start.

    2.) Yes again! The shops in Disney Springs are generally up-to-date with what they stock, but what’s really cool is that Galaxy’s Edge carries exclusive Black Series box sets - in each one, you get 2 or 3 core characters, plus a park-exclusive one, like Hondo or DJ-R3X.

    And, to answer your question from another thread: no, Universal does not yet sell the Universal Megatron. They were supposed to, then along came a COVID. Hasbro Pulse will be your best bet for that.

    East Colonial Target has x1 Grimlock (after I got mine!) and x1 Primal. There was a lone Frog Man Marvel Legends hidden behind some board games so they have already received this wave.

    Has anyone spotted any of the redeco G.I. Joe Classified figures at Walgreens? They are starting to show up there, and I sure would like the redeco Roadblock. I'm in Orlando, by the way. Haven't seen any Classified figures or Kingdom/SS86 Transformers at Target in weeks, but haven't been going to Walgreens.

    Have not. I've been to a few Walgreens in the East Orlando/Waterford/Bithlo area over the past 2 weeks since the Zartan wave's been spotted, but haven't seen anything. Also looking for Kup at Targets/Walmart

    I haven't seen Kup yet. I bought the first and only Hot Rod I've ever seen at Target about a month ago, and all I've seen since were two Blurrs. This is the University/Goldenrod Target, by the way.

    The only figures I really want right now are the Viper (BWAH HA HA!) and the redeco Roadblock.

    Yeah, I got a good look at one today in the store. I've never seen the MP Grimlock in person, but SS86 Grimlock is the best-looking Grimlock I've ever seen (that Wheelie sucks though). I just don't have the $50 to splurge on him or Kingdom dino Megs.
