After striking out a couple times this week at Target and Toys R Us, I managed to come across Hot Shot in one of my 2 Walmarts in Gainesville just now. No sign of Knock Out or the Vehicon, but there we also 8 Bees, 2 Cliffjumpers, and 1 each of Wheeljack, Ratchet, and Arcee. No Voyager Bulkhead or StarScream, and no more stock in the back according to their scanners.

Anyone else had any Wave 3 Deluxe or any of the new Voyager sightings in Florida?

Nothing new from Prime since Wave 2, but I did find wave 2 of the Bot Shots, well, all except Mirage. Picked up Brawl, Ratchet and chase Bumblebee.

Just snagged 1 each TFP Deluxe Vehicon and Knock Out at my closest WalMart :) Left 9 BB, 3 Cliffjumpers, 2 Ratchets, 1 Arcee, 2 Hot Shots, and 1 Knockout on the shelf. No new Voyagers - 4 Prime and 1 Megatron on the shelf, and no more in the back according to their scanners. My Target is still nursing the same 8 BB and 2 Cliffjumpers it's had on the shelf for 2 weeks now. 3 Prime and 2 Megatron Voyagers were also on Target's shelf. No new sign of the newer Cyber Commander figures yet either.

Just saw TFP Voyager Bulkhead at one of the local TRU in Orlando. Didn't pick it up since I already have the Takara FE. Still on the look out for KO and Vehicon...

Finally picked up TFP Knock Out and Vehicon at Walmart, Daytona Beach. Left 1 Knockout and 2 Hotshots. Also saw Cyberverse Dreadwing at TRU Orlando but I had to leave it. Holding out on the Voyager version...

Maybe someone has answered this question already, so forgive the repost. What's up with the missing faction symbols for TFPRIME RID? I've only seen the symbols on ALL TFP FE and select RID figures (I.e. voyagers and one other - Vehicon). Just asking out of curiosity.

If anyone's still looking for the the DOTM deluxes of Dark Steel, Air Raid, Specialist Ratchet, and/or Armor Topspin, the Wal-Mart on N. Dale Mabry Hwy. directly south of the intersection with Waters Ave. in Tampa has all four.

I found a Voyager Starscream at the Walmart on Semoran by the airport yesterday, and a few Hot Spot's in the Walmarts off Maitland Blvd west of I-4. Also picked up the last Knockout from those two stores. As of a few hours ago, each of those two Walmarts each had a Hotshot, and one had a Bulkhead.

After a long dry spell, I found the following at my local Wal Mart: 3 Shadow-Strike BBs, 1 Knockout, and 1 Dead End - no sign of Airachnid. 2 Energon Driller w/Knockout and 2 Star Hammer w/Wheeljack playsets were also available. Managed to snag the only Voyager Bulkhead at TRU as well.

The TRU at 101 Town Center Blvd. up in Sanford/Lake Mary has one Fall of Cybertron Optimus Prime and one Jazz left… I just picked up a Jazz and (the last) Shockwave there. They're actually right on the endcap to the left of the main display… I almost missed them.

Found a small sampling of Fall of Cybertron Optimus (3 left) and Jazz (snagged the last one) at my Gainesville TRU. No sign of Shockwave. They were $14.99. Nothing new at Target or Walmart - their stock seems to be getting low again.

So after what's been an eternity, my Target has reset their toy aisle a bit, and new figures have appeared! Fall of Cybertron Deluxe Wave 1 (3 Optimus, 2 Jazz), TF Prime RID Deluxe Shadow-Strike Bumblebee. The Optimus Maximus playset thing was also available, as were both TF Prime Weaponizers Bumblebee and Optimus Prime. I passed on all of them for now - still trying to find a FoC Shockwave ;)

Since the moderators havent uploaded a link to directly post this on the toy sightings section, I'm letting everyone know that mp Thundercracker has been sighted, bought and sold out of the Fort Myers, Florida TRU. There were 4 figures, I bought 1 and a local customized bought the other 3. Just a heads up. They're out there in force now!!! Happy hunting!

TRU in Manhattan has put out about 40-80 Thundercrackers. They have a 2/person limit. They are at $69 ($76 after tax). Saw a dude pick up three of them, told him "2 person limit"... he said, oh don't worry. I'll buy two up here and then run downstairs and buy the 3rd. Works every time. Great.... I have you to thank for not having a Vehicon.

The TRU on OBT in Orlando has the deluxe, legend and commander (or whatever theyre calling the two sizes smaller then deluxe now) of the GDO stuff in stock. Im only interested in the deluxe sized and up so I dont know if they had a full selection of the smaller guys on the pegs (although they looked to have a healthy selection) but after the 4 deluxes I picked up they still had at least 1 of each deluxe on the peg.

Oh and they also had NINE MP Thunder Cracker on the shelf.

My local Gainesville TRU has all four of the Generations Deluxe China GDO figures in 3-4+ each: Swerve, Cliffjumper, Springer, and Wheelie. 1 of the new MP Prime figures was on the shelf, and about 6-7 Masterpiece Skywarps. 1 TF Prime Voyager Dreadwing was there as well, but someone had popped off both of the shoulder pieces, and I couldn't tell if they were in the box or not :(

I managed to score 1 lone TF Prime Sergeant Kup at my local Target this past Wednesday, the first time I've seen any of that wave hit our local shelves. And before I forget, the average TF Prime Deluxe Bumblebee per store is about 6 :(

I just went hunting or the first time in a while and found out that Fort Myers is absolutely stocked with FoC Shockwaves. I went to the Walmart on Six Mile Cyprus and Colonial Blvd and there were about five or six sitting on the pegs, Seven or so Optimus Primes and about five of Jazz. I also went to the Walmart in Cape Coral on rt 41 this past weekend and seen four or five Shockwaves, Optimus Primes, a few Jazzes, ONE Vortex and ONE Brawl.

That was just the two Walmarts I went to. I didn't go to the other Walmart on Six Mile and 41 nor did I go to any Targets or the one Toys R Us here so there could be many more around here if you guys are willing to travel.

Those weren't what I was hunting for though, I hit up a City Trends, Dollar General, Big Lots, Walgreens, Bealls Outlet and regualar Bealls. I found some interesting Transforming toys in a few of those stores. There was an oversized ko multicolored Universe micromaster Devastator (damn that was a long description) in the Bealls outlet along with one of those ko undersized Super Sentai Megazords ("Icarus" I think, it's the one in three sizes from kotoys.com). The regular Bealls next door to the outlet only had an Ironman 2 crossovers Ironman Hummer, the Captain America retool. It was marked as $25 but was then in the 50% off section with an additional 15% off if you're over 50 years old.

I also found some oversized ko RotF legends class figures (Dustorm, Jetfire, Starscream and Blackout) along with two universe/generations legends Bumblebee, a RtS Starscream with the new null rays from Generations Thundercracker and a RtS Optimus Prime with Motorbreaths sword at the Big Lots. There was a g2 legends Megatron but I bought that. A repaint of Cybertron Backstop and a regular Wreckloose along with the DotM Cyberverse Shockwave with fusion tank were on the shelves. There was also a few other transforming toys here that were kind of interesting.

My score today though was the legends class G2 Megatron, a Dotm Darksteel, a RtS Mindset and a Human Alliance Half-Track with Major Altitude. I'm a little behind on my transformers so that was a great haul to me lol.
