Damn you lucky bastitch! I felt good because I finally found some Joe stuff at retail (in Michigan), and you go and pull this...

I also saw Payload and the T.E.C.H stuff as well.
The assoiciate told me that they should finally have the new Joes out by the end of the week (They had them in the back for a couple weeks now)..

Found Ultimate Bumblebee today at the Harahan Wal Mart.
They had 4 and I picked up none.

The Wal-Marts in PIneville and Alexandria are both setting up the shelves with new toys. Ultimate BB, Optimus and Megatron voyagers, and the new deluxes. I picked up Dropkick, Dreadwing, and Payload. The associates are saying the restock should be finished this week. I will check back for 08 BB, Arcee, and Longarm.

I finally broke and picked up a G1 colored Target Jazz from the Clearview Target.

Yo, whats up Cyber Bishop; Been to the rink lately? I just snagged a Voyager Incenerator at Wal-Mart on West Esplanade in Metairie. They also had Voyager Offroad Ironhide, Megatron, Starscream, Thundercracker, and a bunch of others.

-Peace!

My collection is complete, I've got every Voyager/Deluxe Movie figure out... Except Ratchet... he looks dumb o.0

shreveport status...

plenty of movie,starwars,and robot heres transformers.

but thats about it...

pawn shops dont carry toys like they used to
the goodwill i went to only sold stuff like clothes...

i guess ill have to try the salvation army thrift shop

Spotted Universe classic Silverstreak and Sideswipe at the Clearview Super Wal Mart.

I did not pick them up because I had already ordered them from HTS..

Finally, a fellow New Orleanian on Seibertron. I also spotted Universe wave 3 at the Walmart in Elmwood. Oh, and they were selling movie voyagers for 10 bucks. I got Premium Ironhide.

Still trying to find animated Magnus though...

News from New Orleans again:

The target on Veterans has the Jetfire/Jetstorm two pack. I picked on up yesterday, but there were only 2 left.

Also, the Wlamart in Elmwood has a ton of Shadow Blade Megatrons.

I found TFA Wreck-Gar and Atomic Lugnut at Target in Alexandria.

For anyone looking for Dinobot in the New Orleans area, there's hope!! I found ONE Dinobot at the Walmart in Elmwood. I bought the last one, but they were restocking the isle so there are probably more there now. There were also two Bluestreaks. I haven't seen either ANYWHERE else.

I'm still keeping an eye out for Universe Vector Prime and Inferno.

I've been looking all over for Animated Waspinator and Samurai Prowl. It seems these guys are out damn near everywhere else. Has anyone had any luck finding these two? I've also yet to find Classics Rodimus, Cosmos or Warpath.

I did, however, find an Atomic Lugnut at the Target in the Clearview Mall. I didn't pick it up and it appears to be a shelfwarmer.

Geez. this place is dead. Am I the only guy in New Orleans (or Louisiana, for that matter) interested in Transformers?!

Anyway, for the possible New Orleanian lurkers out there, I have great news.

Walmart on Veterans had 2 Waspinators and 2 Samurai Prowls. I got one of each so there may be one left of each. There was also 1 Inferno and 1 Leo Prime. They also had Cosmos, Wheelie, Warpath and Rodimus Legends figures. I got the last Warpath though.

Toys R Us on Veterans had wave 1 of TF Mighty Muggs (but it was only 1 of each figure). I got Soundwave, so Prime, Megs and BB may still be there.

That's all I got. Target in Clearview still only had Atomic Lugnut. Doesn't seem like anyone wants the guy, lol.

I have had a lot of luck with the sightings in the past week. The Wal-Marts in the Pineville/Alexandria area have gotten TFA Waspinator and Samurai Prowl and also the new legend figures. I also found Leo Prime in Target in Alexandria. Also received my silver Alternity Convoy from BBTS this past Friday. I had also gotten Inferno a few weeks ago; just hadn't updated my sightings.

Back again...a few months later. Found the ROTF at every Walmart, Target and TRU I went to. However, the TRU on Veterans had 1 Stratosphere and 1 Mixmaster. No sign of Voyage Megs though. I checked the Clearview Target and the Target on the Westbank and there were no Superion sets. I wonder what's up with that. Both Targets had The Fallen and Wave 2 Deluxes though.

if any reissues show up let me know. i rarely get to go to tru.

You mean G1 Reissues? I haven't seen those at TRU in years. I don't think they even stock them in the stores anymore. You may want to try TRU's online catalog for that dude.

lol ok. last time i went to walmart (before rotf toys were released) they had nothing but dinobot and cheetor

I heard that a Target in Lafayette had ROTF Leader Jetfire. I haven't seen him at all here in New Orleans (I checked TRU, every Walmart, and every Target). I happened to be in Baton Rouge with my girlfriend and convinced her to stop at the Target off Siegen, STILL no luck. I swear we get everything last in the South...

oi just let me know when the roft universe repaints come out. me want hardhead... also the combatacons

Well I saw Superion at the Target on Veterans. There are tons of that set there and they don't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon.

On another note, I stopped in the Kmart on Vets and saw two Human Alliance Bumblebees. One's box was opened, but the other is there. I thought about getting it, but I have too many versions of movie BB as it is. I'm waiting to see if there's going to be an HA Jolt.

FINALLY found a Leader Jetfire at the new Walmart on Veterans. There were 3 that I saw, and I grabbed one, so there should be 2 left. Great figure.

More news from New Orleans (man, there aren't many N.O. TF Fans...); I found the ice cream truck twins at Target on Veterans (only 2). There were also 3 Deadends and a couple of the Robot Hero packs (the one with the big The Fallen figure and some other one).

Clearview Wal Mart had ROTF Thrust

Veterans Target had multiples of Bruticus an Superion.

I was hoping to find ROTF Gears but no luck so far.

I saw a few Gears figures at the Walmart on Vets yesterday.

Also, there were tons of Leader Jetfires at either TRU or Target.
