    Are there ever any meetup or swaps or anything in the DFW area? I'm in Plano. Just moved from Minnesota a few months ago for a software engineering job.

    If you are interested every month there is the Texas Comic & toy show, usually a smaller crowd but a decent amount of vendors and swaps to go around. It's more a mix of all types of toys not just Transformers, unfortunately.

    Thanks, I'll definitely check that out. I've hit a few comics shops around the area looking for info about stuff like that but never found much. Still need to check out my closest comics and games shop by the post office in The Colony though.

    WTF, I preordered Siege Springer on Hasbro Pulse and it still shows as a preorder. Come on Pulse!!

    Yesterday Walmart by Cowboy Stadium had a bunch of Seige Shockwaves, Siege Prowl, and a couple of G1 Optimus Primes in beat up boxes.

    Ran into Walgreens today on S Cooper/W Park Row and saw Generations Sideswipe and Jetfire. Jetfire reminded me that I also have Seige Jetfire preordered, can't wait! They also had a small display of exclusive Fortnite Glow-in-the-Dark 7" Skull Troopers, grabbed one for my son's bday but there are 5 or 6 left.

    Anyone know if I missed the boat on Marvel Legends Worthy Captain America from endgame? My son would like that too.

    If you're in the colony you could check out Madness comics and games, they carry Transformers up to date and some older. They are definitely more expensive though But might be worth swing by.

    It's been a good day...picked up Siege Springer at Target in Brownsville (they had one more left). Went through self-checkout with a Siege Starscream anticipating the sell date prevention on Springer, so scanned him and sure enough - red light assistance. I jumped over to the next open self checkout, scanned the Starscream, put it aside and bagged the Springer. I paid so don't call me a stealer! LOL

    I found 2 Springers at the Target at 10th and Trenton in McAllen on Monday, when i scanned them and of course they came out with the street date. The girl called the manager and they told her that they couldn't sell them because of the street date but that they could hold them until July 28 and then call me on that date. I told them that it would be okay to do that and gave them my number. Well they called me today and said that I could go by today and pay for them and take them home. So I did.

    I don't believe they have. BBTS has them in stock and I just got them from them since my closest Walmarts don't stock Battlemasters.

    We should all do a DFW area meetup. Would be cool to meet some other TF collectors in the area. Also, Jayden from Jayden Frost's Cool Toys (dumb name I know) has started doing monthly toy shows at the Music City Mall in Lewisville.

    Found a Seige Springer at 290/Mopac Target. Went to the self check out and it turned up as date restricted for 7/28. I thought the cashier assistant was coming to clear it for me but then after a couple tries she saw the date and said they couldn’t sell it to me. She apologized and took it.

    I just stood there and shrugged my shoulders. I guess I could’ve been a jerk about it, but I’ll just order it online.
