    Chesterfield Target has one remaining SS Frenzy. Or Rumble. Whatever they're calling him this go-around.

    Got Skullgrin from the Ann Arbor Saline Rd. Target. There were three of them, one had no horns. Rings up at $22.99 at the register but I price-matched the Target app for $16.99.

    Walmart on Ford Rd in Canton has Crasher, Shadowstrip, 1 Clampdown and the new Best Wars reissues.

    Target in Canton has Core Rumble, Wheelie and-of all things- a Kingdom RoadRage on the shelf.

    So just a friendly heads up from a friend of mine who checked: Meijer Warehouses currently have NO Transformers figures. None of the lines.

    That means all stores have is what is on the floor and in their backroom and they most likely will not see a restock until January, as Meijer shuts off toy deliveries usually a week before Christmas.

    So when hunting for new keep that in mind.

    On a different topic: If anyone in the Southeast Michigan Area OR Mid Michigan Area near Flint sees a Lightning Collection Dragon Dagger that isn't insanely marked up please let me know. EE says they are getting a restock in April (and Lightning Storm on Twitter confirmed that there have been restocks the last month or so) but I would like to actually have a concrete way to get one. Recently got into collected the Season 1 Weapons.

    Amazon has it for double retail at 160 and would rather not pay that price.

    Thank you

    I saw so little Transformers at any Meijer store this year, and many months after other stores.

    I don't think I've seen any at mine since the remodel. The toy section in general shrunk so much.

    There have been some Myers that never even got any deluxe Legacy figures. They got the voyagers. They got the leaders. They even got some cores but never a deluxe.

    That would be my main Meijer in Lenox. I think it's the same in Marysville and Chesterfield as well.

    Meijer has been abysmal for finding anything new much of this year. I cycle between three and four stores in my travels, and they’ve all been a disappointment, so this news isn’t surprising.

    Only thing I've found at mine are the World's Smallest Toys single packs that aren't random and have a mini comic, including the newer ones like Megatron and Souncwave, and Squishmallows.

    Meijer hasn't had any new Star Wars Black Series figures since 2020. And they're also woefully behind on Marvel Legends.
