    Target Huntersville got in another case of studio series cores. 2 or 3 each of wheelies and rumbles. Nothing else new.

    Thanks for this. Searching 'Minerva' didn't bring it up, but did find it by searching 'Legacy.'

    I’ve found dead end and wildrider- dead end I’ve seen only once. Breakdown has been reported once in the nc thread in the triangle area, but that’s it. None of the three are common. I’m guessing breakdown will be easier to find by mid-march, but the other two are murkier.

    Walmart hasn’t stocked any legacy deluxes beyond wave 1. I’ve seen Wildrider and Deadend once each at targets, Wildrider months ago and Deadend about a month ago. At this point I doubt you’ll ever find those two in stores unfortunately.

    Thank you both for the replies. I have been slacking on my searches in stores lately. Looks like I'll have to keep my preorders in. The supply/ demand for some figures makes no sense to me. For instance, I snatched up figures like kickback and skids the first time seeing them in the wild. But other figures, like the ones that I thought would be plentiful are in such high demand (I guess being part of a combiner set contribute to the scarcity).

    Yea I didn’t realize the they’d be hard to find. I have my dead end preorder up at TFSource because it was literally the only place that he’s not listed as sold out rn

    I wonder when we'll see Core Nemesis Prime. I very much want one of those!

    Also still looking for Skullgrin in the triangle area.

    Generations G2 Laser Prime's only release so far is in Legacy. It will supposedly be repackaged later this year in Legacy Evolution branding.

    Dragon Megatron has been out for almost three months, but is also allegedly getting a Legacy Evo repack at some point.

    Buying online is especially advantageous for Leader and up price points that are generally stocked in much lower quantities at Walmart and Target, I'd recommend it in this case.

    Target Kannapolis had a Leo prime and a couple nest bone crushers and some earthspark Terran deluxe megatrons and a ss the fallen. target university had a Terran deluxe twitch and some megatrons. Interesting thing on those is they lowered the price to a slightly more palatable 19.99. Picked up the twitch out of curiosity. They also had 3 legacy galvatrons.

    Walmart concord commons reset and they still have all the same evolutions stuff but also a fresh case of Terran deluxes and 2 of the Retro starscreams.
    Correction:
    Target kanapollis has the leftovers of 2 cases of legacy evolutions deluxes (hotshot and needlenose) but not breakdown or scraphook, and 5 Leo primes and a leader dragon Megs and a studio series leader thr fallen and sludge.
