    Yep, Target is showcasing the give the people what they want principle right there. I wonder if Cyberverse is selling better than we all realize.

    Yup, I saw 2 of the set at Mosaic right after I'd already driven over to Annapolis to get mine from the Target there. That was a week or 2 into August. I haven't seen them anywhere else, so far.

    Oh question for y’all. Does contacting Game Stop’s customer service about orders in limbo actually avail you of anything or is it just a waste of time?

    It depends if your order has shipped or not

    Not particularly. I NEVER order anything off the website unless it is a local store pickup. I always pre-order stuff at a store. If there is an issue you can go to the store for answers and hopefully a good solution.

    That depends on which email you believe. I got one saying that it had shipped, and then a day later I receive a follow up saying, “JK! It’s been back ordered because we sold more than we had in stock! Lolz!”

    2 worlds collide 4 packs at Target Richmond East (there where 3 but I bought one). They had one origin Bumblebee and a Kingdom magnus too. As well as 2 warpaths and I think a blackaracnea.

    Military Circle/JANAF Wal-Mart has four of the shelf warming girls, one Warpath, two sparkless and one Retro Hardhead.

    Nothing but Cyberverse at Military Circle/JANAF Target, but they appeared to be in the middle of restocking so who knows what might show up later today.

    Tidewater Drive Wal-Mart has four of the shelfwarming girls, one Sparkless Seeker, three Sparkless bots, and one Retro Brainstorm.

    Coliseum Mall Target has one Rodimus Prime and Three Ark’s.

    Mercury Blvd. Wal-Mart has two shelfwarming spiders, one Warpsth, one Sparkless Bot, one R.E.D. Cheetor and two R.E.D. Arcee’s.

    Tabb Wal-Mart has five Sparkless Bots, one Deseeus Drone, four Cheetor’s and Blackarachnia’s and two R.E.D. Cheetor’s.

    Jefferson Ave. Target has a handful of Cyberverse Deluxe Cheetors, Thunderhowl, Grimlock and Soundwave. All in relatively beat up boxes.

    Jefferson Ave. Wal-Mart has one Ractonite and Airazor, along with two cases or so of wave 1.

    The Marquis Target has one (was two) Worlds Collide set, one HighOctane BB/Stinger two pack and three SS Thrusts.

    Monticello Marketplace Target has three of the Clunker BB/Dropkick pack, three SS Thrusts and two T-Wreck’s. Most of the TF section is covered by other items however.

    Williamsburg Wal-Mart has one Blackarachnia and five R.E.D. Arcee’s.

    Ok, I’ve hit every Target and Wal-Mart in Hampton Roads (asides from the Outer Banks store, it’s not worth going to till the Target opens) within the last month, I’m taking a long break before I do any long hunts again.
    (Unless someone finds Galvatron with the fixed shoulders, in which case @ me please)

    And one last stop on my multi-hour transformers hunt (and only cause I wanted Chick-fil-A): Hillcrest Target has one Clunker BB/Barricade pack, two Wingfingers, three SS Thursts on an endcap, but nothing at all on the aisle.

    Only half a hour after I was there… I’d assume they restocked but it didn’t look like they were set up to when I was there

    Hey friends! I’ll be in Richmond for the first time in a year & a half, has anyone seen Cyberverse Cheetor in the area? I hate the fact it’s not in a window box anymore, so I was going to get it online, but I haven’t seen any online shops selling it yet, so maybe it’s in-store only?...

    If Powhatan Walmart got him then most stores should have him.

    No worlds collide at Short Pump target today. If anyone sees it at short pump, staples mill, or Libbie please stash one for me.
