Please post your TF toy finds for North Dakota in here. Be sure to post the town the store was in where you found stuff so other members know if it is near them.

I just found this guy in the Fargo Target tonight after work, and I even snagged him for their $9.99 price on deluxes. He was the last one on the shelf, but this is a good sign. Keep an eye out at Target—wave 2 seems to be making its way to the Midwest. Happy hunting!

I stopped by the Fargo Toys “R” Us this evening and snagged these two. I am guessing they were just placed on the shelf in the last day or two as there was no price card listed near them yet. Skrapnel and Windcharger were also on the shelf. Looks like Power of the Primes is finally making its way to the midwest. No sign of deluxes or voyagers yet, but the Prime Masters did show up for a few days before being snatched up.

Power of the Primes wave 3 deluxes are finally showing up in the Fargo area. Found these at the 52nd Ave. Walmart.

Heads up: there may be a variant/factory defect out there for WFC: Siege Blue Streak. Of the 5 copies I found at Walmart (52nd Ave. location in Fargo), one of them was missing the silver face paint (see photo).

Usually a variant is more related to the mold or a big deco change. With a lack of paint in the face it's more of a mistake from the factory.

Earthrise is starting to trickle in to Fargo stores. Along with the micromasters, the Leader class assortment was on display last night in the Fargo Target.

I saw an in stock notice on the Target site for Fargo, and while they were not on the shelves, a friendly employee conducted a search on his device and noted they were in stock in the back rooms, so he proceeded to snag one for me and bring it up front. They are absolutely fantastic, and a very welcome addition to my display. Happy hunting, and don’t be afraid to ask about the stock in the back rooms!

That endcap display people have been mentioning was finally erected at the Fargo Target. They had one Seeker 2-Pack available on the shelf. It was indeed nowhere near the standard action figure aisle, which also still had quite a few TF figures displayed there as well. This was located near the toddler/young children toy aisles.

Everyone’s favorite narcissist showed up at the Fargo Target today, which is the first time I have seen this size class on the shelf in any local stores. They had two available.

I had to satisfy my curiosity, and it looks like the reports were correct. This was the display at Aldi in Fargo, so I was finally able to get Smokescreen for my collection. They had multiples of each figure.

Decided to do a quick run to one of the Fargo Walmarts over lunch, and the reports were correct. I found a Netflix Bumblebee, and they had quite a lot of the deluxes from this wave (some were piled up on the high shelf). There were also a couple wave 2 Earthrise deluxes on the shelves as well.

After seeing the reports, I did a quick run to Walmart over lunch, and sure enough the Netflix WFC Trilogy voyagers are now hitting the shelves. There were 4 of each when I arrived.
