    Red Alert is at EB Games and maybe Toys R Us in Canada.

    There haven't been any wv3 deluxe sightings in the US yet.
    Amazon is sending out scorponok & wingfinger preorders but not tracks.
    Supposedly some kind of packaging error.
    The wingfinger spotted was 1 solid case seen in 1 Walmart.
    Nowhere else.
    Presumably an accident.

    In regards to Walgreens, of the six I can stop by on any given day, none of them have been restocking toys other than Diamond figures. I haven't seen any Marvel Legends, which is causing me the most stress -- I need that Quasar and Nova! I very much doubt I'll see Red Alert either :(

    Ran up a phone sweep of the closest Targets to me: Merritt Island, Melbourne, Melbourne Village, and Titusville, plus an in-person stop at Viera’s. None had Slug, so make of that what you will.

    Does anyone near Volusia or between there and Orlando still need Kingdom Leader Megatron, before I return it?

    Went to my local targets this morning, Port Orange and Daytona and found nothing. Same stuff as usual, what I did find out though is on August 12th the Bumblebee (Saucer mode from MTMTE) will be arriving.

    In theory, anyway. I still haven't seen the Kingdom wave 3 core (Soundwave, Dracodon) or wave 3 deluxes on my local Targets' shelves yet.

    Nobody to my knowledge has seen the deluxes yet on shelves. The August 12th date for Bumblebee is guaranteed at my store at least, since that is the one I checked the DPCI at. It shows an actual arrival date, it is possible they show up sooner and are just backstocked until the streetdate (That is how it is meant to happen but so often employees do not check for streetdates when putting product out.).

    One Kingdom Leader Magnus at Waterford Lakes Target. My buddy picked up Galvatron for me there this morning, but since I don't have him in hand yet it still kinda feels like I missed out :) 

    New Black Series wave was apparently there as well. I picked up the lone RoTJ General Lando. Nobody else from that wave on the pegs.

    I’ve seen on Facebook there are starting to get NE Florida Slag sightings but no one wants to give up any locations.

    I'm thinking Super Targets first. Regular Target on Waters had nada.

    Running by Viera Target after work (off at 3) to grab dish soap…and also to check again for Slug. We’ll see!
