    I can honestly say that I didnt see any because I wasnt paying attention for them. They are not on my list to look for, but I will keep an eye out now.

    I saw 1 Overkill and 3 Drag Strips at the Marshalls Home Goods store on West Gray in Houston tonight for anyone who might be interested. No sign of Ops or Megs though.

    Marshalls @I10/Dezavala: no dice
    Marshalls @410/Ingram: about 3 Overkill and about 5 Drag Strip

    Walmart @410/Military: MP Skywarp for $60 <-- please come down, all the new deluxes and voyagers, across several isles, along with the usual suspects.

    I am done hunting for the time being. Still looking for SE-01 & SE-02 to round out the set (willing to pick up 03&04 and trade with somebody, PM me), MP Skywarp on the CHEAP, and whatever is going to be released in February.

    Looks like Killeen is the place to shop today! Kmart found legends air war four pack that I had never found before. Includes a special edition card. Also found eight Pack minicons. No sign of Nebular Starscream yet. Killeen TRU has Perceptor and I insecticon, Nemeses set,backroad Brawl set,Bludgon /Whirl set, mighty MUGG Grimlock Jazz ( I bought soundwave) , new Bludgen (I bought the only one they had) but they have one Recon Ironhide, also have five pack of transformers christmas ornaments for 2.25 (saw a couple around the store). Cedar Park TRU is just scraps as of last night.Cedar Park Walmart is mostly old stock with a few NEST deluxes but has lots of MP Skywarps and a few animated leaders that are pretty beat up. Leander super target is total scraps with a couple NEST deluxes. Best grab of the day, hasbrotoyshop.com has Robot heros constructicon devastator onsale for 19.99, got mine in, they also have mighty MUGGS optimus in stock. Still looking for WM exc powerglide on sale in Austin area if anyone see's one. Send me a meesag if you want pics of the two kmart sets I mentioned.

    I called all the Marshalls in the San Antonio area and they all told me they had no primes. I didn't call the ones in San Marcos or Boerne...I knew I shouldn't have given mine away as a gift 7 months ago.

    Anywho, is there anyone in the SA town area that is selling a G1 OP complete and in good condition? I'll be in the market for one at the end of the month (payday). I could ebay it but I dont really trust many sellers with G1 toys.

    UltraMagnusMatt apparently scoured the area here in Killeen. I'd say I was lucky to find what I wanted beforehand.

    Yesterday I was able to find Bludgeon and Recon Ironhide in the Killeen WM. First time I've seen those in the Killeen area. Unfortunately there was only one each of those and I bought them. Also picked up the Lights & Sounds Optimus and Bumblebee.

    Killeen is pretty simple, TRU trucks on Sat and sometimes Tue and Thur, WM in Heights puts the toys out for prestock @ 11 to 1130 and doesn't care if you raid the pallet as long as you don't make a mess, and Kmart sells slow so you can usually get any Kmart exclusives pretty easily. If you talk to the manaagers at TRU and tell them you are having a hard time finding something they try to get it for you pretty quick too.

    The closest I have is a G2 OP with the trailer, but no gun, fists or roller. Sorry.

    Anyone know where I can find a complete product list G1 to present of Transformers figures? Trying to get a baseline / checklist going! Maybe that is an idea for TFW2005, create a checklist function to track your collections complete with comments section to note pieces you may be missing or looking for.

    Use the search feature on the boards - or even use Google.

    I typed in "toy checklist" and got this thread of this board:
