    I picked up a Sunstorm from the Apex Walmart last week. They had at least one of each left except Galvatron - but this was a week plus some days ago. It is the new Walmart off 55. If they don't have them anymore, you could go the other way down 55 for 10 minutes and check the Holly Springs one pretty quick, but I haven't been there in awhile.

    Neither did Triangle Town Walmart or Target. Two Voyager Starscreams and one Voyager Bulkhead at Target, but that's it for new stuff.

    I saw them yesterday and I couldn't see any differences. The paint apps were slightly different but barely noticeable. I thought they were supposed to come with new weapons but I could have mis-read that.

    There are two versions of the RtS repacks on Generations cards that have hit Market Six. The first assortment out was Optimus, Starscream, Bumblebee, and G2 Megatron, with the only differences being the lack of rub-signs (or no difference at all, in G2 Megatron's case).

    There is also another assortment that has Optimus and Starscream but with recolored weapons from the Motorbreath/Thundercracker GDO releases. I do not know the case breakdown on that assortment, or if it still includes Bumblebee and Megatron.

    In other words - you may have seen the newer assortment with weapons, or the slightly older one without.

    Alright...here's the list of stores: Walmart, TRU, and Target 15-501, Target Southpoint, Walmart MLK in Durham.

    Here's what I didn't find: Dreadwing, Rumble, or Kup.

    If anyone locates extras of these in Durham or Morrisville, feel free to let me know :) .

    That is all.

    Wally Sardis had another voyager DW today!? Picked it up for a board member. Not sure if they are 2 to a case or if this Wally got 2 cases in.
    Off topicwise They were putting out some clearance 6" Thunder Cats, but they were $11... I'm spoiled by my Wally, I got s 6" Chetara for $6. So I'll wait.

    Cary Target - save your time, unless you need Voyager Starscream or something.

    Cary TRU - First, no MP TC, since that's what most of you care about. Moving on, same store:

    I bought one of each of the newest Botshots, one Megatron remains from that wave. They did not have the Shockwave chase bot. They have a bunch of the Kreon Microchangers, they are on a side end cap on the aisle that has the rest of the KREO stuff. There is only one full set from what I can tell, and plenty of partial (5/6) sets. They are $2.99 each. Enjoy!

    Yeah, Morrisville Walmart, big ol no. They have two Voyager Screams, CV Flamewar (1), couple of CV Wheeljacks, CV Knockout (1), and nothing else of note on the limited peg space.

    No offense to Christian Bale, but I hope his investment wasn't in the toy proceeds. He's not selling. Same for Andrew Garfield (Spider-Twilight-Tween).

    It's not the toys I sell, but the seats I fill, that defines me...

    And nothing new @ TRU Pineville, but they did have at least a couple of MP TC's yesterday because Flywheels let me know he scored the last one they had last night.

    Arboretum wal mart has cv comm ultra magnus and the new cv comm bulkhead repaint that's kind of dark blue(I can't remember the name of it).

    Yeah, me, too! :) 

    Also, there was one more MP Thundercracker at TRU Pineville today.
