The Target in Skokie on Howard has the new Bot Shots and Cyberverse Legion figures. They also have one of that Cyberverse Smokescreen jet thing, and a couple of Voyager Predakings. I picked up a Predaking, and so far I must say I'm pretty pleased with him.

Rosemont Target had a similar selection today around 12:30pm. They had a lone FOC Kickback alongside the Wave 1 and 2 figures. I didn't see any other Wave 3 figures so not sure how Kickback, who's only 1 to a case of 8, survived (unless he was returned or some other kind of fluke). Of note was that they had my first Target sighting of Generations Soundwave, Soundblaster and the Wave 1 Datadiscs.

Wave 2 FOC Voyagers are hitting stores around here still. Saw a lone Grimlock at Meijer in Rolling Meadows on Sunday night but forgot to report it until now.

This is not necessarily of any immediate use, but Target.com has a listing, complete with picture, for TFP Voyager Skyquake, 19.99. It says "currently unavailable online" and "not sold in stores", so it might be a matter of watching for the listing to become active. FWIW.

Edit- corrected to Target, not Walmart, sorry.

If you're looking for the Autobot cassettes head to the Meijer in Plainfield. I picked up one of ea. but there's about 2 to 3 of ea. left.

In Springfield at super Walmart: FoC Grimlock and Blaster. Also found a FoC Soundwave and Soundblaster at a Kmart (and they were listed at $18.99; cheaper than the $22.99 at both Target and Walmart).

Just wanted to poke my head in and see if anyone has spotted BH Shockwave yet. I'll let you all know if I spot him.
Grimlock know how to bash brains. Maybe bash yours.
