Who wants to hear a funny(not) story about my adventure to target tonight? So I stopped by the Target on vets to see if they put out any Prime figs tonight. Browsed the shelves; nothing new. So I went to one of the price checkers and punched in the the DPCI for PRID deluxe figures. "Stockroom: Yes"! Okay, great, now time to find an employee and talk him into getting them for me. I find a guy working in the toys section and I tell him I'm looking for the Transformers Prime toys. He's eyes get wide and he says "You mean,like, the new cartoon?? I didn't think those were out yet." I tell him that I punched in the DPCI and it said they were in the stockroom. So he pulls out his handheld scanner and punches in the numbers. Again, his eyes get wide. He looks up a me and smiles "Nope! Nothing matching! Sorry!" and he walks off. I know this effer is lieing but theres nothing I can do about it. I decide to walk around a bit and I notice that the same employee is watching me from down the aisles! Really creepy... He doesn't stop watching me until im down the esclator and almost out the door! So yeah; I'm pretty sure theres a fat, balding, Target employee blowing his load over a box of deluxe prime toys right now. A-hole... >:(

Found Prime deluxe figures at the Target at Esplanade Mall. I gave an employee the DPCI and he grabbed a brand new box out of the stockroom for me. (He was much nicer than the guy from last night btw.) I grabbed Soundwave, Cliffjumper, and Wheeljack. Not sure if they had any more boxes in the back though. After I was done picking the ones I wanted he brought the box back in to the stockroom.

Also, I stopped by TRU on Vets today and gave customer service the item number for PRID deluxe figures. She told me the truck that's coming in tomorrow will have them. PRID cyberverse figures are on the shelves as we speak.

Found the Prime Deluxes and Cyberverse figures at the TRU on Vets. I got the last Soundwave, but there were still plenty of Wheeljacks, BB's, and Cliffjumpers left. Didn't see any Voyagers, but neither of them interest me (I have FE Prime, and I'm waiting to see if Takara goes the extra mile and actually paints Megs silver).

I also saw the Bot Shots figures. They're pretty nifty little guys. I got Barricade, Prime, and Starscream. They were 5 bucks a pop which I actually don't think is that bad.

Picked up Voyager OP and Megatron at Target in Esplanade Mall today. Had to give someone the DPCI and bring it from the stock room.

It looks like each box is 1 Megatron and 3 OP. There's 2 OP left.

Passed by the TRU on Vets and saw that they had the Powerizers out. Well...Optimus was there (three of them). I asked the clerk if there were any in the back. She checked the system and there weren't. So yea...three Powerizer Primes are there. It was also interesting to see that they had moved the Transformers section one aisle closer to the exit. Despite being moved, the TF section was pretty much picked clean. Only Prime Deluxes that were left are (of course) Bumblebee. Very few Cyberverse figures there as well.

Gonna pass by Target in a few since I have to pick my phone up from the Sprint across the street. I passed by Target Sunday and the figures weren't there (even had an employee run the DCPI's). Who knows, if I see Megatron in person, maybe the pain aps won't look so bad.

TRU in Baton Rouge has some BotShots & PRID. They had about 2-3 of each BotShot (except for only 1 Sentinel.) For PRID, there were 3 OPs, 1 Megs, 1 Bee, 1 Cliffjumper, & 2 Wheeljackies.

I was there around 3pm today, no PRID figures at all. I did manage getting a DOTM Guzzle. TRU must've stocked later in the day, because I was there before going to Target. Good luck!

I didn't ask any associates if anything was in the back, so maybe that is the proper method. But I already got the Deluxes last week, and Voyagers are sitting at BBTS. I'm looking for they Cyberverse figs, but can wait it out.

You must have just missed the PRID figures at Target too dude. When I passed there, they had a few Cyberverse figures out. No Deluxe or Voyager figures though. I asked an associate to find out if there were any in the back, gave him the DCPI, and even though his scanner said they were in the back, apparently they weren't.

Oh well, I can be patient. I scored Wheeljack and Soundwave last week so I'm still trying to wait for Takara's take on Voyager Megatron before biting the bullet on the Hasbro release.

TRU on Vets and Wal-mart on beherman on the west bank has the Movie Deluxe Prime + Trailer set. Each store had 2.
