    Manassas Target - New Wave SS Deluxe WW2 Hot Rod and Shockwave. Nothing else new.
    Dumfries Target - ER Micromasters 3 each and I snagged the Lone ER Astrotrain; Just need to snag an Optimus Prime now.
    Woodbridge Target - a transformers wasteland - the section was virtually empty.

    I have been noticing a resurgence of SS Leader Jetfire lately.

    Pembroke Mall Target had Earthrise Voyagers, but I got the last set.

    The WFC deluxe pegs were empty. Asked an employee if they had any in back, but his scanner said they were currently sold out.

    No Earthrise at Mosaic Target, but it looks like they put out a case of the SS wave with WW2 HR, Soundwave, and the motorcycle trio. Plus a few SS Jetfires. They also got a bunch of the Cyberverse one-steps with Repugnus (who's actually pretty cool) and Bludgeon.

    Thanks to a recent comission I can totally splurge on a grapple. As soon as anyone sees one in the henrico/richmond area let me know and you'll have my undying gratitude.

    Just grabbed ER optimus, grapple, and starscream from the hilltop target in vb. 2 astrotrains left. No other new stuff that I saw.

    On a side note....this hobby is getting expensive, lol. 116 bucks after taxes for 3 figures.

    One ER Astrotrain left at Target Seven Corners. @theestampede picked up a Astrotrain and OP and I picked up a Astrotrain.

    Oh and they have a bunch of Series 4 Botbots 8 packs.

    Checked Short Pump (nothing) and Libbie (those $10 mini guys), looking for ER today.

    I did see the SS motorcycles but I don't recall which store had them. Sorry!

    Victory Comics has Hoist and Starscream but they haven't put it into the computers yet so they're not on the floor.

    I picked up the ER voyagers from Woodbridge today. Picked up the deluxes there a few days ago. That’s why lol
    They have a few Grapples left there as of a couple hours ago

    Has anyone seen the one-step Whirl anywhere? Never picked up a one-step changer before, but that one looks pretty neat.

    I haven't seen him yet, but I'm pretty sure Repugnus and/or Bludgeon are supposed to be in the same wave and I've been seeing them everywhere this week. So maybe people were just snatching up the Whirls before I saw them...? Or they might have still been in the back room somewhere.

    I thought Whirl and Bludgeon together were a wave, though...? And the Bludgeon cases seem to be showing up at the same time as Repugnus, so it seems like the waves shipped at the same time (together?). Or maybe the case assortments were switched up somehow.

    So at Midlothian target they looked for me and saw the line arrived 2/13 but has not been “sorted”. The guy is going to the back room and check to see if he can get the boxes out for me. He couldn’t. But he sent me to west Chester commons and they check the back and got a wheel jack.

    So by that do they mean just the deluxes or the whole line?

    uncertain, but at the Midlothian target the guy told me there were more than one box in the back which appeared to have arrived on 2/13.
    They were able to grab it for me because I had the DCPI of cliffjumper at west chester but the guy at west chester told me that was all they had in the back.
    However with the DCPI of grapple they can easily check; but i think this is only a matter of time until the rest of the wave appears.

    nope. only ER that was left was 2 astrotrains. Don't know if there's any in the back or not. thier stock crew is kinda slack about keeping the shelves stocked.
