    That’s it, me and you, mano a mano, midnight, tonight, in the abandoned parking lot of the vacant Midlothian Toys R Us!

    Loser buys the winner 10 races at Thunderbolt Indoor Karting. And a Sally Beauty Supply shopping spree.

    So neither of us could be found at that Toys R Us tonight.

    I blame Hasbro’s shitty distribution...

    Update about last sighting:
    Went to Reston Target again today and noticed the siege figures hanging from the same peg. Except today I noticed they were NOT siege figures. Sorry everyone.

    I guess it's some card game or something. The packaging looks similar (to me, anyway) and I could've sworn it was the small master figures. IT WAS NOT.

    Again, I apologize if you made the trip that way based on my incorrect sighting.

    Anyway, have fun with the sightings. If a Star Saber is ever released, I'll be back. Have fun with collecting everyone.

    Update: I have now had two people in NOVA and one in WVA tell me that they have found siege at Target by taking the DCPI into the store and asking the employee to bring the figures out.

    I think it is safe to assume that Brickseek is no longer reliable.

    I was gonna try asking an employee at Target Mosaic to check Siege items in the stock room by DPCI, but he seemed to interpret whatever his handheld doodad was telling him as "We don't carry this item anymore", so I gave up.

    Incidentally, however, they did have 2 of the Shatter Energon Igniter (the red car version that comes with an Energon Core, not the jet version).

    Both the Fair Lakes and Chantilly Targets are without Siege at this time. I did grab the lone SS Starscream #21 (tattooed) at the Fair Lakes Target.

    Can either of you confirm/post the DPCI that showed up on your receipts? A few different ones have gone around, but I don't think I've seen pic of a receipt or a "My DPCI was..." post.

    Micro masters are at Reston Target. Also a tattoo Starscream. No other Siege is there.

    I found those out in the Transformers section. Three sets, hanging on a peg labeled for PotP Legends figures.

    They pull them off the truck line for me. This is the first siege figures they received. He claimed the battle masters/ target masters will be instock in a few days or so. No information on deluxes or voyagers. Employee said they all should be on the floor on by the 25th of November.

    I was told about the same thing. Not that the figures would be released on the 25th specifically, but that they would be released in the next week or two.
