    There's not a cheesy way to stack these, is there? I go to checkout with or without the 25% and its same price.
    Edit: looks like online overrides that offer

    Skyline Target has like 3 Draculus. And a couple Gnaws, if anyone's army-building him. Nothing else super noteworthy.

    IKR? I'm feeling like there's gotta be something wrong here! :) 
    Maybe Hampton Roads is picking up the overflow from LA?

    Every Walmart I’ve been in lately (WV) has been overflowing with stuff held up in ports, so it’s very possible! On the one hand, it’s awesome seeing fully stocked transformers sections again but on the other hand it’s almost all stuff we chased around months ago. Did see 2 sweeps and was tempted, but I’ve been burning cash on older lines lately (damn Unite Warriors and Gen Selects dinobots, etc) Not sweating Blaster or Pipes, they will get here whenever they hit my pot of loot at BBTS.

    I did a cursory check today for Blaster since he was spotted, but I'm with you. He's getting packed in back to back waves so I'm not too worried about eventually finding him. Pipes and Slammer will get here from Amazon eventually. I wouldn't even be this concerned but last wave of the line-itis, y'know?

    Of course I'm the only person that hasn't received their Jackpot, so what do I know? :)

    I went south of the river today and checked Midlothian Tnpk, Hull St, and Iron Bridge Rd Walmarts. No tigatrons or blasters. Plenty deluxes though.

    Man, it's weird that a single small town Wal-Mart in SW VA is the only reported sighting. Have there been sightings any where else?

    My Jackpot and RR/Puffer Pack are still set for tomorrow but they have not actually shipped yet. Must be on an Amazon transport to one of the local distribution sites and then will get delivered by Amazon.

    You must be a gambling person. Amazon never truly "promises" to deliver anything. You are left wondering till they actually ship it. If it goes USPS then all bets are off. I to date have 19 USPS shipped Amazon boxes that have never surfaced (this is just 2021 mind you); Amazon cannot find them and neither can the USPS. Every once in a while I paste the tracking numbers into the USPS website to see if anything has changed. NOPE. Amazon reshipped everything by either UPS or by their own delivery so I am not out anything to date. Some of the lost items are Transformers figures most likely shipped in their retail boxes (yes they just slapped a shipping sticker on the pretty display box - my first Skywarp came that way) or the brown cardboard overbox so they were most likely "lost" on purpose somewhere along the way but there is no way to prove that. If the shipment is only a figure makes sure to say it is a gift; if forces them to put it in an Amazon box.

    Stopped through Chester Target during my lunch break. Nothing really interesting there save for a couple of Beast Wars Megatrons for those still looking. Also a shadow panther and some SS Jolts.
