    Target.com showed Hilldale as having 2 Thrust in store but I didn't see any. I did find Ectotron as a nice surprise. Kind of high at $60 but I'm a sucker like that. There was also an Optimus Primal on the shelf.

    Target in Stevens Point has three Thrusts left after I picked one up. Walmart has restocked the deluxe Netflix figures. I finally got a Bee.

    Does anyone know the SKU or DPCI for Kingdom Primal? Or know of any around the Waukesha/Sussex area? Want to pick one up and hoping a Target would put it on the side until tomorrow when I could pick it up.

    Just a heads-up for anyone who missed him the first time: Gigawatt is back up on Pulse. The pre-order won’t ship till August of this year, but better than nothing.

    Miller Park had 2 Thrusts, all the new Bumblebee stuff, and Core Kingdom optimus.

    and 3 Siege Shockwaves for good measure.

    There was one SS86 Hot Rod at Madison West Target. I bought it. They have nothing else, shelves are barren.

    Walmart has Gigawatt up as well.

    Has anyone seen SS86 Jazz out there yet? I've got him preordered on Amazon, but hoping to find him in store.

    I forgot all about this thread. There were 2 Thrust on shelves at Miller Park Target. Boxes were slightly beat up but not horrible. Absolutely fine if you're opening

    I’m thinking the first wave of Kingdom had dried up. Went to 3 Targets (124th and Capitol, Moreland in BRK and Koskow) and pretty much crap left. Only Kingdom I saw was a Core Prime at Moreland. All of them had the Core Bee/Spike combo though.

    Anyone in the Madison area want a Selects Hubcap? I wound up with an extra one. Brand new, $20 and it’s yours. I can meet in a parking lot at any of our west-side stores.

    This definitely seems true, at least for now. I was in two targets today (New Berlin and West Allis), and both have restocked their barren shelves with Siege product. Anybody looking for Kingdom right yet might want to give it a week or two.

    I'm holding out hope we'll see SS86 stuff land in the Milwaukee area next week, considering the sighting in the Madison area the other day. But if it's anything like the Kingdom rollout so far, it'll be a blink and you miss it kind of experience in the early going. I imagine distro will stabilize and everything will be more readily available as we move further away from the holiday season.

    I’ll take him off your hands. I live in Sussex and work in the Falls so let me know and I’ll get you the money.
