Stopped at the Target on E State in ROckford yesterday and scored Ultra Magnus and Thundertron. THere was one of each left on the shelf, and also there was one Vehicon figure for those of you army building.
Scalpel...blood bucket...priest...next patient!
Would ye care fer a wee nip of scotch whiskey?
Yes I am a Cubs fan. You may pity me now.

They've also got a GDO Wheelie and some FE SSs and Arcees. But I just bought the four Combaticons they had. No Vortex though.

Walgreens in Des Plaines, River Rd and Oakton, had a TFP Vehicon and 2 Airachnids. They're in a stand-alone kiosk near the front. $14.99 too, IIRC, not bad. Walgreens is usually way more expensive than other retailers. FWIW.

The other day the Skokie Target had one Voyager Thudertron and one Voyager Ultra Magnus. I didn't buy them, but they may have been bought during the black Friday madness.

Happy Thanksgiving / Black Friday weekend everyone!
Just wanted to let you guys know that the Aldis in Des Plaines had about a 1/2 dozen Vehicons still as of this afternoon.
The Target in Arlington Heights on Rand had an Ultra Magnus and Thundertron around 3pm as well as a ton of Rescue Bots (all 8 versions) in the main aisle and then on one of the back end caps at the end of the toy section toward the back of the store. If you've been on the fence about them, today's a great day to buy them at $7.99 a piece.
Current Want List: Beast Wars Returns Strika, Sixknight (stickers or replacement), Browning, Dai Atlas, Guard City, Battle Gaia, Marlboro Wheeljack, and more!

OK, Toys for Tots time! Target in Villa Park has DOTM Deluxe 2-packs for $10. They are apparently paired thusly:
-Bumblebee/Air Raid (green AWACS jet)
-Nitro Bumblebee/Thundercracker
-Sideswipe/Armor Topspin
-Starscream/Roadbuster
I did not see these sets at the two other nearby Targets I visited tonight, but I'm sure they'll hit. Off you go then, be generous!
