    usually individual figures won’t show with a dcpi. I don’t see them changing dcpi for wave two.

    I don’t believe they are street dates per say but that might be when the reset is suppose to be done. I’m not sure though

    Chambersburg Target has ER wave 1 Battlemasters (Soundbarrier and Smashdown), three Grapples, a few Deluxes and SS Scavenger. I saw SS Shockwave, 07 Megatron and Soundwave leave with some young kids, so that was actually cool.

    There is a single reissure Astrotrain that is $9.xx off original price in the clearance section at the back of the store at N. Atherton Walmart in State College.

    The box is all crunched and dinged up, so at first glance, it looks like a true vintage piece. I had to do a double take and chuckled out loud at the poor dude in his jacked up box.

    It still looks like this. Nothing has changed.

    Montgomery Target Guess Service has no date for the Seekers.....

    They did have tons of Wave 1 Earthrise Leaders. 5 OP's and 5 Astrotrain's.

    .....Astrotrain looks better than I thought but I still don't think it's worth $50. Maybe $25-$30 in clearance later on.

    Hanover Target set their Transformers endcap.

    No Seeker 2-packs, but one SS Leader Scavenger, 2 SS Leader Shockwaves, 2 Siege Deluxe Crosshairs, 2 Siege Deluxe Spinisters, a billion Astrotrains, 2-3 ER Leader Primes, an Earthrise Starscream, and a bunch of Soundbarriers.

    Honestly, soooooo nice to see actual stock on hand, even if that stuff is probably going to last until December.

    Just out of curiosity, did they have a spot for the 2-packs?
    I don't think PA has gotten their stock in yet from what I've seen on the Target App and on the boards.
    All stores around me are listed as not selling them, which I remember happening with the rainmakers - they were listed as not selling them until they got them in, then they were 'sold out' if they got them in and actually sold out.

    They didn't have a spot for them that I could see.

    Wilkes-Barre Target had 1 ER Grapple and 2 ER Optimii.

    Also strangely had the wave of SS with Cogman, Shatter, and Scrapmetal. So, if anyone is still in need of SM for their Devy...

    A few of the Target's I've been to have a price tag for it on an endcap, but of course no stock. :(

    So a quick update: I was just at my local Target (Neshaminy Target) and they had the end cap set up for WFC Trilogy figures and they had an empty spot set for the Seeker 2 pack, I was thinking that with the spot set it couldn't be long now. So I grabbed a Target employee to see if they might have any in the back. So the employee scanned the tag for the Seeker 2 pack and told me that they had "Already Gotten Them In And Sold Out Fast within minutes!" I asked about the next shipment and when it's coming, and the employee said it's not coming and that the Seeker 2 pack was a limited release! I was in disbelief so the employee showed me in the scanner it said "Limited Release Seeker 2 Pack". Next I asked if this was all Target's and they told me that it might be but I will need to check with the other Targets, but they for sure will not be getting anymore Seeker 2 packs and that they will be taking down the Seeker 2 pack price tag down from the end cap!!!! So needless to say I'm scared that we may be getting Amazond again!!!! And I should also add that I'm one of the lucky few that actually was able to get the Amazon phantom strike squadron when it first hit!!!

    sounds like an employee who doesn’t know what they are talking about. I’d be willing to bet they see more of them. They wouldn’t do such a limited run on a new mold like that.

    The worker is wrong. I personally watched a worker scan the DPCI and the limited stands for "Limited Edition" so someone had to have gone in there and changed the listing by hand. My guess is that if they did come in, someone was handed the case directly or the person you spoke to snatched it for his collection and a quick buck before it even hit the floor.

    They'll restock. They've never had an exclusive in that low of a number. Plus, the rest of PA hasn't seen them and the eastern and southern portions of Ohio haven't either. I get why you're worried, I do, but the guy is wrong and more will be coming. Target didn't buy into this exclusive to lose money, not in the slightest.

    The only Target exclusive I never saw was the Red Hulk, and even then it was available here and I just missed it.

    Speaking of Target, Chambersburg has a SS Shockwave, ER Battlemasters and some other random newer figures like ER Starscream and Ironworks. No signs of an endpapers. Yet

    I really do hope your right, because I definitely don't want to believe that this is going to be a red hulk situation like Dachande mentioned or an Amazon 2.0! This may call for some extreme hunting! I'll go out of state if that's what it takes! I got the Amazon Skywarp so I'm sure as hell not going to miss out on this one!
