Well I tried the Target on 44th & McDowell, and was able to score a Soundwave, at last! That's all I took there. But in my excitement, I forgot I was after Wheeljack, too! So instead of harassing those guys further (they were pretty busy), I went down to the Target in Tempe Marketplace, and grabbed a Wheeljack from there.

There is still a Soundwave at that Target!! Grab it while it's hot!!

I checked the Ross stores in both locations. The first only has an RTS Perceptor left, tucked away on the upper shelf. The one at Tempe Marketplace had diddly, with an extra shot of squat.

Ooh, I actually didn't look at the receipt. I want to say 12.99, but I could be wrong.

Soundwave is a great figure, by the way. But Wheeljack was an impressive surprise! Really enjoying him a lot.

I snagged the last/only Soundwave and Wheeljack from Toys R Us on Ray and 54th in Chandler. They only had 8 figures in total (3X Bumblebee and 3X Cliffjumper). No Voyagers on display or SKU stickers listed. Going to try again tomorrow because another truck is supposed to arrive on Thursday.

Target in Ahwatukee says they have the Voyagers in stock but nothing on the shelves. Going to try today or tomorrow of TRU is a bust.

Happy hunting AZ gents.

I just got back from my Thursday hunt. Looks like the TRU on Ray and 54th has restocked:

6X Bumblebee
4X Cliffjumper
2X Wheeljack
1X Soundwave

I was considering picking up another Soundwave and Wheeljack but I had my eyes set on something else today.

Looks like the Target in Ahwatukee (Ray and 48th) receiving and shelved the initial run of Transformers Prime Cyberverse Legion class figures. I picked up the only Arcee and Ratchet along with the 2nd to last Vehicon. There were an entire peg's worth of Bumblebees and plenty of Cliffjumpers to go around.

Didn't ask about the voyager and deluxe class because I forgot the SKU numbers :BANG_HEAD:

Hey, DrLegend, are you on TFW2005.com? In the conventions section of their forum there's a thread about an Arizona Transformers fans meetup this Sunday.

Another highly localized stock update for you all. This involves the plaza at the southeast corner of Bethany Home & 19th Ave, just east of the 17N.

I checked out the Ross and found a handful of 2010 versions of Wreckloose, Backstop, and Undermine, at least 3 each. I also found a few Iron Man crossover figures, and these RTS figures:

I then headed for Target, hoping for a Cyberverse Vehicon; no such luck. What I did find was a bit surprising:

Image

Oh my, two TFP:RID Voyager Primes! I left them there (I'm a cab-over purist). Here's the rest:

Good hunting, stalkers!

Ah, too bad, it's only annual I think. Well the guys and gals on there seem pretty friendly, and willing to meet for trades and stuff.

I found a Cyberverse Vehicon! It was at the Target at Southern Ave & Longmore in Mesa. Sorry, I bought it, but I did pass up another Arcee, and a collection of Ratchets, Bumblebees, and Cliffjumpers. Here's the rest:
