Postby Sludge*loves*beer » Sat Aug 25, 2007 2:05 pm

Has anyone seen the new real gear in the Los Angeles area? I am looking for a Meantime and haven't seen a single new real gear yet.

so i went to kohls in san jose today on McKee, since everyone has been finding stuff

although i was dissappointed that i didn't find bumblebee, i was given hope by the fact that i actually found deluxes there

First i see one swindle, then i browse around, remember that they could be all over the place. So soon i find arcee, and another one, then bonecrusher, then wreckage, then scorponok, then dreadwing.

3 x arcee
3 x swindle
2 x dreadwing
5+x wreckage
4+x bonecrusher
2 x scorponok

oh bumblebee, how i long for you.

I haven't been TF-hunting for a couple weeks or so. Have you seen any Real Gear Mean Times in the area? That's all I'm really looking for now.

I stopped by College & Marron, but they don't have squat. They have some real gears, but no meantime. Just the phone, binoculars, mp3 player and gameboy looking one.

78 and Jefferson only had the gameboy looking real gears, but they got some more classic deluxes up; a few Ramjet and one Cliffjumper and Rodimus. Also had some Cyberton Primus Unleashed voyagers (soundwave and a dark something or other). They also had frenzy and jazz robot replicas and two movie robot-heroes.

Has anyone seen any alternators at Wal Mart recently?

Also, if anyone's been to Frank & Son, what were the alternators going for there?

New Real Gears in Target of Alhambra

Postby Sludge*loves*beer » Thu Aug 30, 2007 10:34 am

I went to the Alhambra Target a little before 9 a.m. and picked up all four of the new real gear. They still had a good amount of the new real gear transformers and all four figures were present. They also had two Deluxe Deadwing figures left as well. If anyone is interested in GI JOES they had the 25th Anniversary collector sets of GI JOES and Cobra.
Target Alhambra (626) 308-3290

haha, saw one of those a while back.... but yea, you aint gonna find nothing 'cause of all the hoarders who go there. best bet to go is when they put out the palettes which is about 9-10 at night.... i guarantee if you go at that time you'll see people looking through the palettes. the toys are gone before they even see the light of day. theres competition at this wally world so go before everyone else gets there.

-TONS of deluxes...including Concept BB, Wreckage, Arcee, Bonecrusher, ect...

The Toy section istelf is messy, but the TF's section was hardly touched at all. You dont have to settle for buying the first Concept BB you see because they had so damn many of him. I chose the best painted and packaged one IMO.


Holy hell. Follow up trip...

Anyway, EACH of those 40 or so Arcee and Concept BBs are gone. Plus it was a messy toy section this time.

-2 Bonecrusher
-7 Wreckage
-2 Dreadwing
-Plenty of Swindle

Not much here, except for Oceanside TRU. They had

-5 Meantimes
-4 High Scores
-2 Booster repaints, forgot its name
-10 (!) Leader Brawls
-12-14 Voyager Megs

No deluxes, unless you want a Cybertron monkey Prime or t-rex Megatron, but after reading everyone's Leader Brawl woes, that shelf full of them was entirely unexpected.
