The Skids wave was all over the place in late November/early December, but then when it was time to restock the Scoop/Skywarp/etc. wave showed up. Rumor has it that the Skids/Dreadwing/Goldbug/Waspinator wave will show back up again at some point, but it's currently unknown when.

Didnt much show up here then. A FEW and I mean a few of that wave showed up in like only 2 or 3 of all the Targets here. And we have at least 10 in easy driving distance. I've no trouble finding anyone else though. I may just resort to the bay before he goes up anymore.

Anyone in the Charlotte area seen rhinox or whirl?

by **FortMacs** » Sun Mar 09, 2014 7:54 pm

Double post...

Not yet, I am staring to see the Minicon Assault team, Armada Starscream, and Scoop. I haven't seen any new voyagers in a long time.

I just saw the newly packaged "Reveal the shield" Starscream in Newton Grove at the Family Dollar. They had Optimus Prime and Bumblebee as well but didn't have them out yet. The selling price was $6.25

They also have loads of the standard packaged Legend Class of the same RTS mold across the street at the Dollar General in Newton Grove. Tank/Megatron, Starscream w/ additional Null Rays, Bumblebee, and Optimus w/ additional Energon Sword. They are selling for $6ea.

I think they're all the same. If you have the DCPI code for Generations Voyagers, then that's as good a bet as you're gunna get.

Yep, been the same DCPI since Soundwave and Soundblaster. For reference, 087-06-1378, but that being in stock could just mean they have Grimlocks and Springers and such.

Kanapolis target had a whirl and double dealer. Just need to find a rhinox now.

1 Doubledealer sitting around at North Hills Target in Raleigh. Also a Springer and a couple Soundblasters chillin on the shelf with him.

I found all of the Transformers Generations Legends Class Series 2 figures at the Big Lots in Smithfield for $10 each.

1 Bumblebee and Blazemaster

2 Megatron and Chop Shop

They also had a full assortment of the standard packaged RTS Legend Class figures for $5 and 1 ROTF CYBERVERSE SHOCKWAVE with Fusion Tank for $10.

Dark of the Moon, you mean.

The fact that Dark of the Moon product is still on some shelves is pretty sad. I'm glad they're long gone; the whole Mech-Tech gimmick was all sorts of fail, despite there being some gems among the rocks.

OOPS....I did mean DOTM.

I should have had one more cup of coffee before i posted.

It's a little early for this, but planning is a handy thing.

I'd like to propose a Triangle-Area meetup for Saturday, May 17th, when the AoE toys are set to hit retail. Ideally, we'd meet up in either the Cary Crossroads or Triangle Town Center area and go buy a bunch of movie toys, hang out, grab some food, drink some beers (if you're into that), and so on. There haven't been very many larger meetups in the area since the last movie, so it's time, plus I want to meet some new faces and see old ones!

Post in here if you're down for it, and as the time gets closer we'll try to settle on exact time and location. I'll also be reaching out to the TFW group to see who's interested there.

I'll keep this post as reference to try and keep a head count - if we end up at a restaurant, we'll want to call ahead out of courtesy.

Attending/Location and Time Preferences
Scotty P/Triangle Town area at lunchtime

If only this was in Wilmington... I would've enjoyed being with fellow fans in-person. I feel like a pilgrim in a foreign and unholy land. :-s

Loyal Subjects Wave 1 figures at Triangle Town Barnes and Noble yesterday. These things cost too damn much.

Triangle Town TRU was a waste of time yesterday.

by **massprime** » Wed Apr 02, 2014 8:16 pm

Pineville TRU has at least 3 Whirls & 3 Doubledealers.

by **Evil_the_Nub** » Sat Apr 05, 2014 7:00 pm

The Kannapolis Target has a few Rippersnappers. Better late than never I guess.

Well, TFW won't let me link back to my earlier meetup post on their boards, and I don't want to participate in their site even to talk to local people, so I've pulled all the info from there. Since very few locals post here, it may be a dead-in-the-water idea.
