    I saw them on Saturday in that section. They likely didn't put them out until friday or saturday because theyre in the seasonal section, and waited until after Halloween.

    Soundblaster was listed as in stock at Cincy-Dayton Road Walmart, however not on shelves- To get it I had to site-to-store order it and it was ready in 24hours.

    Woot has TR Twintwist for $23.99. Wasn't this part of the wave that wasn't distributed well?
    Transformers Generations Titans Return - $23.99 - Free shipping for Prime members



    The displayer for them is probably in a different part of the store. I've seen it in 3 different places and 3 stores. None in the toys.

    on the app the figure was listed as being in the front of the store in the old Halloween decorations aisle- After searching in person I left and then later decided to place the online order--- just an idea to try out for everyone.

    Wilmington Walmart still hasn't ever put up the 35th display or shown any sign of the cell shaded bots, but they do appear to have gotten a couple of cases of Siege Wave 4s, they had a bunch of Barricades, Impactors, and Mirages as well as a replenishment of Thundercrackers and... still... like 4 undiscounted Shockwaves just sitting there, an affront to Primus.

    I ordered the Rumble/Ratbat two pack and the Direct Hit/Power Punch two pack combined for $19.99 total from Entertainment Earth... but then so again I'm a disabled U.S. Marine and also a paraplegic who is unable to drive... so ordering online is easier for me than the physical hunt is anymore. Plus, it seemed like a decent price as well and I love me some cassette bots.

    I wish EE sold the Wave 5 Micromasters separately so I could order 2 sets of Rumble/Ratbat. One for my Soundwave and one for my Soundblaster

    EE always does that. Sets/cases get months long first dibs. It's annoying at times. i'd have been fine with the 6.95 shipping if I was able to just order ratbat/rumble. Dont want the other set.

    Understood. i've ordered other toy/action figures from them in the past but I never thought that the two cassette bots would be available and fairly affordable for me (I typically pay whomever gives me a ride some gas money so it "equals" out to the cost of shipping from EE for me).

    They were not in the usual space for Transformers though. On a whim I decided to look at the Gundam figures, which I don’t collect, and found both Ratchets behind them. Get it while it’s hot!

    Tri-County Target has a BS Yavin Luke, Jet Trooper, Cara Dune. They also have 80th Thor for $12 and Hela/Skurge and Luis/Ghost for $25 and a couple NECA Godzillas for $16. All of these ML/NECA items are on a clearance end cap in the toy aisles.

    Just a heads up - North Olmsted Walmart just moved that new seige display into that front seasonal area. I saw someone else noted that at a different location. Anyway still really well stocked!

    I found it at the Berea Walgreens, back behind a Siege Hound. If you want Ratchet, take a moment to poke around. He’s worth it.

    Sugarcreek Wal-Mart has the 35th anniversary stuff among the seasonal items near the front of the store (with a good selection), and Wave 4 Siege deluxes (saw Impactor and Barricade. not sure if they had Mirage).

    Has anyone in the Columbus area seen the 35th Anniversary display or figures yet? None of my Walmart's have received them. Thx!

    Target off Feedwire Rd has 1 Siege Springer and a Tcracker on the shelf

    Dayton mall Walmarts and many 35th figures up by the main entrance by the Woodforest bank. 1 Bluestreak if I'm not mistaken and 1 Tcracker back in the toy isle.

    Only Walmart in Columbus I’ve been able to check is the one off South High Street by Ollie’s. That was over a week ago. Grove City Walmart is not faring any better either. Was just in there yesterday and found zip.
