People like you make me angry, there are collectors who can't find that stuff and then you guys horde every one and the second hand market jacks the price up.... :-x


LOL. I said sorry.
But really, you would do the same. Its not like I got ten. I only picked up three each, and there for my collection, not to sale.
I got some from BBTS too. So sue me.

I could understand helping friends out or kitbashing, but just sitting there.... And last I checked the phrase "Sorry" doesn't lower stupid ebay prices. :BOOM: :BANG_HEAD:

Walmart - San Diego - College Ave near kohls and target

I counted 3 warpath cases worth untouched...

Since I already had a warpath case from bbts I didn't need to
pick any up as I was looking for scouts. Though I probably
should have cleaned out the warpaths for ebay lol. Kidding.

Hopefully they are still there if you are in the area and need
them. Good luck.

Wal-Mart in Bakersfield now has Dotm figures.
4-Roadbuster
8-Bumblebee
1-Ratchet
2-Crakcase
1-starscream
2-skids
the deluxe ones.

Also....
3-Optimus Prime voyager class
1-Ironhide voyager class.

They're turning the walmart into a super walmart so they were hidden and not with the other TF's. They where on a seprate lane with other surplus toys.


Got me Bumblebee.

Big McIntosh walked away from the shed on the farm where this took place. He cleaned himself up, said yyyyyyyyyyyyyup, and walked off, ready to buck some apples.

Plenty of Scourge, Kup, Warpath, Thundercracker, and Wheeljacks have been spotted at the High Desert Walmarts in Apple Valley and Victorville. The Victorville location was cleaned out though by one of my friends! :-$

Looks like Orange County Walmarts have the first wave of Dark of the Moon figures.

I resisted the urge to pick up a few figures. I really like the new Megatron figure.

Hello my fellow Seibertronians in California! I was at the following Walmart location

3382 Murphy Canyon Rd
San Diego, CA 92123

and found the new wave 2 Human Alliance basics (Tailpipe and Whirl) along with the wave 2 Activators (Topspin and Megatron). This store had a real nice Transformers set up. Biggest I've seen at a store yet!

Happy hunting. See you at BotCon!

Target in Long Beach on 33rd had 3 Fireburst Optimus Primes yesterday around 4pm. If they had him, that meant they had the rest of wave 3 which includes Voyager Class Sentinel Prime. Happy hunting!

So how is it that California gives us more traffic than anywhere else yet no one is posting sightings from California? C'mon guys! Help each other out. Let everyone know where you're finding stuff at. Tell us where the next TF meetup in Cali is going to be. Talk about how the Bears are going to kick your ass this NFL season. ;)

Yesterday, I saw Night Ops Ratchet at Marshall's. Coleman St. In San Jose, CA. I thought I have one already so I didn't buy it. Only $9.99! #-o

Not sure if they still have it when I go back after work today. Oh well :(

Hola California Seibertronians! Normally I'm on the Illinois forums but the wife and I are out here for a vacation, living it up in Napa Valley, and I figured I'd pass along a little sighting to you: the Napa Wal Mart on Lincoln Ave has two each of Generations Warpaths, Thundercrackers, and Wheeljacks! Hid em in the back of the Generations figs for anyone who wanted them.
It finally happened. The Chicago Cubs won the World Series. Yes, I cried.

Today I actually found WARPATH and THUNDERCRACKER at the Target on Summit in Fontana, (92336) for $11.99 each. There was one of each still there when I walked away. I bent the corners to help secondary gougers leave them for true fans/collectors. Good luck to those of you trying to complete your Seeker set and who are trying to find this interesting tank. Patience pays off, people. :grin:

Here's two BIG middle fingers to all the gougers that were at BotCon this year that tried to sell them to me for $45.- each.
