    Orange City Walmart has quite a bit of the Shadow Panther, Waspinator, Tracks wave, a bunch of RED BB and Cheetor, a ton of core class figures, all the Beast Wars reissues, and some Studio Series deluxes. No voyagers or leaders though.

    Early this morning, the Altamonte Springs Walmart had the first Core Soundwaves I've ever seen in the wild, plus SS86 Kup, Blurr, Wreck-Gar, and Sweep and Kingdom Tracks. I was hoping against hope to find Blaster, but yeah... no.

    I bought my Core Soundwave months ago on Ebay for a decent markup thinking I'd never see them at retail, but then these showed up a couple weeks ago as part of the Christmas restock. Altamonte Target also had some recently.

    I paid about $17 shipped to order one for my best friend as an early part of his Christmas present a few weeks ago. I guess it could have been a lot worse, but neither of us could ever find it until after I ordered that one!

    Walmart @ San Carlos Blvd & Summerlin Rd (near Fort Myers Beach) had the same stock as two weeks ago (Vintage, WfC Kingdom deluxes wave 2 & 3, etc.), except they had also opened a couple cases of SS86 Sweeps and Wreck-Gars. The SS B-127 is still sitting on the overstock shelf. No Blasters, or Kingdom deluxes waves 4 or 5 yet.

    Target @ San Carlos Blvd similarly had nothing new, although they had a couple SS86 Gnaws and Kingdom Magnuses & T-Rex Megs.

    The Hunt for Red Alert continues but turned up zilch again today, not even a single ping.

    Today I hit the Targets at Coconut Point, Ft. Myers South, Ft. Myers Beach, The Forum, and Gulf Coast Town Center, and the Walmart in Estero. Findings were pretty consistent across them. For Kingdom, lots of Wave 3 and 4 Deluxes, Beast Wars Megatron, Wave 4 Core Class, and a few Ultra Magnus and Galvatron. For Studio Series, lots of Jazz, Jolt, Gnaw, and ROTF Bumblebee. Practically no Voyagers, and nothing from Wave 5. Here are some specific items of note:

    2 Galvatron and 1 Core Soundwave at Coconut Point.

    1 Wreck-Gar and 2 Sweeps at Estero Walmart. Here I found 1 Tigatron and 1 Rhinox. I took the Tigatron.

    Target at the Forum had 1 Rhinox and some Origin Bumblebees. Target at Gulf Coast Town Center had 1 T-Wrecks.

    It looks like nobody’s carrying the Cyberverse warrior class anymore. And I need that snarl to get the last of the five Cyberverse dino bots. I’ve got all the other four already.

    The Walmart by Fort Myers Beach still had a few warrior class, but they hadn't put out anything from the new Dinobots wave last I checked Friday. I won't be there again until after New Years, but I'll let you know (or buy one for you) if I see Snarl anywhere.

    There is ONE Tigatron at Coral Way Wal-Mart. I slid it under the shelving unit right under where all the TFs are.

    As of last night, Emerald City has two Slammers. They're 30 each and one was tucked behind some other figures in the kids section while the other is on the pegs with the other newer deluxes towards the back
