I had terrible luck with waves 2 and on last year, and I'm not taking my chances with retail for wave 2 this year. I went ahead and ordered the full set of 4 from BBTS. I really only want Ripclaw and Smokescreen, but we'll see if I want to keep Starscream and Bulkhead or sell them. Smokescreen and Ripclaw's individual preorders were pre-sold out and price gouged up to about $21, while the set of 4 is only $60 plus shipping. At TRU's current $16 price, it works out to be only a few bucks more than retail with shipping included.

Nothing to mention while out today. TRU had the usual stuff: TONS of DOTM deluxes, a few TFP:BH deluxes. Target had the FOC Bruticus team and OP and Jazz. Walmarts were embarrassing to look at. I went to the one in Buford and in Hamilton Mill. Both were completely bare. They did their resets last week and have nothing to show for it except pegboard. Very disappointed in seeing this. Needless to say today was a day to burn some gas.

For my part, I stopped by the Lawrenceville Target between classes today. A couple wave 1 RIDs, a couple wave 1 FOCs, nothing much to speak of in boxes. Decent amount of Cyberverse. I went over to Marshall's and Ross while I was there. One of them had a Thundertron for only $13, so if you're looking for him, check that out. They also had the Bumblebee Battle Suit cyberverse set fo rthe same price. I don't believe there was anything else of note at either location. I'm still looking for a Shadow Strike Bumblebee for cheap to complete my Deluxes, so if anybody finds one, give me a heads up.

Good evening fellow Seibertronians! Sightings from out and about. TRU Mall of GA had deluxe FOC. I had them all except for Kickback, so I snagged the only one of him. For those of you looking for TFP Voyager Dreadwing and TFP deluxe shadow bumblebee they had 1 of each. Target had the same figures for the last few weeks. Walmart @ Mall of Ga and Hamilton Mill again this week had all empty pegs, not sure whats going on with that.

I will head over to TRU first thing tomorrow, I guess. Still holding out for a cheaper Shadow Bee.

I was at the TRU on Cobb Parkway near Cumberland Mall today and had my first sighting of FOC Voyager Soundwave. He was on the large shelf behind a DOTM Voyager Sentinel Prime. I didn't get him because he's sitting in my POL on BBTS but TRU's price of $22.99 is not bad. Still no sign of TFP Beast Hunter voyagers but they had 3 Laserbacks, 1 Bumblebee and 1 Soundwave (deluxes). Hopefully this means FOC Grimlock is not too far behind!

My brother is looking for FE Bulkhead, can someone in the Atlanta area please keep an eye out and let me know if you see one?

Also, in regards to Skyquake voyager, will he be released to US retail? I am not certain he will be based on what I've read. I do know that he can be purchased in a 3 pack or 4 pack off BBTS...but I have no interest in any other voyagers at the moment.

Thanks in advance!

Skyquake is in the Wave 4 revision case, which is probably not seeing a lot of distribution because he's at the tail end of the PRID line, which is over. Retailers generally don't buy many of the last wave of lines because they're waiting to put out the new stuff from the next line, and he's only 1 to a case with Magnus, Thundertron, and Starscream, so he'll be hard to find. He IS out though, there have been some sightings of him. We'll try to keep you posted.

Just spotted and picked up Beast Hunters Wheeljack and Soundwave at the TRU in Savannah. I can't seem to add it on the Sightings page so I figured I'd share it here with fellow Georgians. After my roommate and I grabbed ours, there are 3 Soundswave and 1 Wheeljack left. Also spotted 2 FOC Soundwave there as well and the 5 pack Autobot Polar Assault team and Stunticon Bot Shot sets, 1 Autobot and 3 Stunticon.

So made my usual rounds around Buford/Hamilton Mill today. Everything had been a bust up until I got to Wal-Mart. I found Beast Hunters cyberverse Optimus, Predaking, and Bulkhead. They are pretty cool little guys, but the price is too high on them. Only other finding was TFP cyberverse Knockout with the Energon driller @ TJ Maxx. Otherwise nothing else to report.
