I can’t remember who it was, but I know someone in the Cleveland area was looking for Astrotrain at Ross. They had one at the Mentor location. You can find him tucked away here as of 3pm Saturday.
Damn. That’s an hour out from me and no way I can go today. Thanks for thinking of me though! I’ll try to see if I can get out there tomorrow.
I just saw Trailbreaker avaible for shipping on Walmart website. I was momentarily tricked when he and Sunstreaker were supposedly available for pickup like a month ago. Its now showing Sunstreaker as sold out, so not sure what to think.
Columbus Sawmill Rd Target - usual stuff, no Earthrise wave 2 Sawmill Rd Meijer - still a couple Siege deluxe. Not much new other than Sky Lynx Other Target on Sawmill Rd way up near Delaware - usual stuff, no Earthrise wave 2 Bethel Rd Walmart - still dwindling down to near nothing. Earthrise Wave 1 on pegs
Lancaster Walmart was mostly W1 Earthrise. One Doubledealer and like 4 Primes. One Netflix Hound. Only thing noteworthy was one Airwaves. Lancaster Target is a shit show. Only Earthrise they had was Micromasters and Battlemasters and Sky Lynx. For deluxes, voyagers and leaders, all they had were Sideswipe, Megatron, Thundercracker and Shockwave. I don't really follow Studio Series but I'm pretty sure they only had older waves of that line too.
Target in Springdale and West Chester had nothing of note. My Runamuck is shipping from Amazon so my wave 3 wants will be completed, thankfully.
Nothing new at Graceland Target. Did get my Trailbreaker from Amazon, I keep checking to see if Sunstreaker or Runamuck go back up from them. Also just looked at Amazon and looks like my Ironhide & Prowl are out for delivery, so that's a nice surprise.
Got my Ironhide and Prowl. Siege Prowl's head DOES fit, just barely. ER Prowl's head does NOT fit onto Siege prowl though. Doesnt stay on. WAY too loose. but Amazon did listen and ship it in their own packaging, albeit they took it out of their own SIOC, and stuffed it into one of those paper mailers with the filler in between the layers. It did arrive pristine though.
Chillicothe Walmart has a lot of SS leaders, and a ton of ER Snapdragon, Starscream, and Grapple. Some Doubledealers as well and they had the RED wave but I grabbed Soundwave.
Gamestop has Fasttrack In-Stock. ThinkGeek stores have begun to receive Tigertrack, and Im assuming they're fulfilling orders for other wave 3 ER figures. https://www.gamestop.com/toys-colle...cts-action-figure/11100970.html?condition=New
Man, you're good. I appreciate the heads up. My Gigawatt should be coming from Gamestop tomorrow. So on that note, whats the point of Pulse now? If all their "exclusives" will hit Gamestop first, then why bother? I mean I still want Maverick to round out the crossovers so far, but at this point Gamestop is more likely to get it and ship it before Pulse ever does.
Amazon: Sunstreaker is available, ships in 1-2 days. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083VLPNNV Trailbreaker is In-Stock on 11/16 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083VM79RH I think its the issue BBTS has. Pulse likely gets their stuff direct from Hasbro, whereas other retailers get them from 3rd party distribution partners for Hasbro. So sometimes places get stuff early. That and Pulse is mega backed up it seems, so likely they've had Tigertrack for a minute before beginning processing orders today.
To add to that I think Pulse is a small warehouse compared to Amazon, BBTS, GameStop, and etc. Hasbro will send their bigger orders to those retailers before Pulse.
I guess the confusion was mine, but I thought I was reading carefully. The GameStop preorder I put in was for Selects Hot Shot (received him a couple months ago), Runamuck, and Rotorstorm. How Runamuck became a Selects release when he's a wave 3 regular release, I dunno, but he'll be an extra since I found him and Fasttrack at Target. Assuming he's going to ship in the next couple days, if anyone's still interested in him, I'll be happy to hook you up. I'm still looking for Smokescreen and Bluestreak.
I lucked out in Amazon not putting a label over my conehead box. Unfortunately Primus was not looking out over me for prowl and ironhide
