    I think they’re referring to finding them at Ross. ER Optimus and Astrotrain are $30 there.

    Seriously though, I know the at least 3-4 Shockwaves I see on the shelves are blocking the new figures from hitting the floor. It's frustrating.

    Shockwave was blocking the shelves down here in Houston for a while and then all of a sudden disapperared. It's been ER Astortrain shelfwarming for the past few months.

    Cedar Hill Walmart had some Earthrise wave 2 deluxes, noticed Arcee and Airwave. And that hammerhead shark for Cyberverse. They also had three HISS tanks for you GI Joe fans. Grabbed one of those and left the others. Opening a minty HISS tank made me very happy! :)

    Not something I saw personally but a user on Reddit reported that the Walgreens in Grand Prairie on Beltline and 303 Pioneer Parkway has 3 ER Bluestreaks as of an hour ago.

    Very True for Katy West Houston.

    Mine too. Still haven't seen a DoubleDealer or a SS Shockwave because some ER Primes, Siege Shockwaves, ER Astrotrains and SS Homeless Megatron are blocking the shelves

    DoubleDealer is showing up in Ross stores. I saw one yesterday at the one on Highway 281 and Trenton Rd in Edinburg.

    Yeah I've been to Ross almost every single day and multiple ones at that and I haven't seen any double dealers.

    Ah, ok. I haven't gone into a Walmart since the Pandemic. I've only been frequenting Targets and Ross.

    I’ve only been checking the Ross on FM 1093 and the one over in Bella Terra. The Bella Terra one has a lot of toys but no sign of mom’s. Either a scalper or reseller is grabbing them up before I can get to them or they just are not getting them in at those locations. I did go into the Walmart in Bella Terra tonight and checked the toys section. They had wave 2 of ER figures even had Allicon. As I was looking I found a Game of Thrones Daenerys McFarlane figure and scanned it and it scanned 5 bucks so I thought that was pretty good deal. Anyways I have not see anything new out as I’ve been out this past week.

    If anyone near Burleson, which is just a smidge South of Ft. Worth, finds Bumblebee and Elita-1 and could grab them for me I will meet you and pay you for them. Preordered and just got the cancellation this morning, not happy about it.

    Would be appreciated.
