Spotted one each of PRID Arcee and Ratchet at the Behrman Wal-Mart (Algiers), but nothing else of note. Unless you are one of those children that really want a voyager Optimus Prime because they are shelf-warming like it's Winter. There's also Dlx BB, Cliff, and Wheeljack. Only Cyberverse figure is a BB.

Happy Hunting!

Found new cyberverse and legion figures at Walmart on Vets today. The had Breakdown from the Prime line. Also had what looked like new legion figures from DOTM; Soundwave, Evac, and Another who's name I cant remember. But there packaging was the same as TF:Prime Cyberverse figs... weird.

Thanks for the heads up Sith. I'm tempted to do a bit of hunting today actually. I'll swing by the Walmart, Target, and TRU on Vets and let everyone know what it looks like. From what I understand, they usually restock on Mondays and/or Wednesdays. Hopefully, I'll come across Knockout and Vehicon... :-?

Update:

Well, it was a pretty rough day of hunting...

TRU on Vets - Had the new wave of Botshots. Didn't get any since I have no interest in them.
Target on Vets - 'Tis a sad sight walking down this store's toy aisle. It's like they don't even care enough about the aisle to even stock anymore...
Walmart on Vets - Saw a few Cyberverse Mirages and Soundwaves, no sign of Breakdown and Evac though (the two that I actually wanted... :-( )

Found Cyberverse Commander Ironhide and Dreadwing at the ToysRUs in Lafayette today. There were none left on the shelves after I bought them.

Nothing in Lake Charles yet from the new waves. LOTS of deluxe BB, wheeljack, ratchet, etc, and cyberverse commander & legion at TRU, and a sprinkling of them at Target.

Also, Ross & Marshall's have a couple of Generations Wheeljack at $7.99.

Wal-Mart in Sulphur has quite a few of the deluxe & cyberverse Prime toys, but none of the new ones.

Dark of the Moon is everywhere. If you can't get it at clearance prices, you're paying too much!

TRU @ Vets - picked up Ironhide and Knock-Out. Out of the new waves, there are only two Hot Shots left (someone must've gotten the Vehicon). Also a Ratchet and Arcee (Deluxes) if anyone is still looking.

Target on Vets didn't have anything new.

Stopped at TRU on Vets today to see if Prime Vehicon or Knockout made it in. No such luck, sadly. However, I happened find Rescue Bots Boulder there. There were two and I only grabbed one, so if anyone's interested in this hard to find figure, he's there.

I know most collectors aren't into Rescue Bots, but I can't get enough of these guys. Now that I FINALLY found Boulder, I've completed the Rescue Bots line WITHOUT having to resort to eBay!

Last night, I picked up Voyager Starscream from Wal-Mart on Manhattan Blvd (Harvey), but didn't see any Bulkheads, or any of the newest Deluxe or Cyberverse figures.

This evening, on my way home from Baton Rouge, I stopped by Wal-Mart in the Siegen Marketplace and picked up both DOTM Darksteel and Air Raid at discount. There is one Darksteel left.

Got off work a little early and went to the following stores:

Target in Kenner - Nothing new
Walmart in Kenner - Nothing new
Walmart on Vets - Nothing new
Target on Vets - Nothing new
TRU on Vets - Nothing new
Walmart on Judge Perez (Chalmette) - Nothing new

Kinda wondering just when these Wave 3 figures will show up... I'm very tempted to just buy a Vehicon on eBay to save myself the gas money.

I would try TRU tomorrow, they get their new shipments on Wednesdays.

Regarding Vehicon, I'm seeing buy it now for $39.99. My suggestion is to wait it out at least until the end of June, because we're just seeing these waves hit around here the past few weeks. People were complaining about Wave 1's Soundwave and Wave 2's Arcee and Ratchet, and now they're a lot easier to find on shelves (just not abundantly).

Patience (and maybe a friendly site-member) is key to victory.
