I thought about buying it and selling it for cost (plus gas if I delivered it), but it has a thread of paint going across the driver's side window and thought someone might not be happy about that. I used to live out by Garrettsville, and Eastwood mall used to be my shopping area. Have you checked at Kraynak's? It seems like an out of the way place that might have them that most wouldn't think to look at. Also, it might be a good idea to check toys r us as early as you can every day until they appear. It seems like if they are showing up at one, the others probably aren't far behind. Mayfield Heights TRU might have been the first to get them because it is a NICE store.

Oh that's a shame. I'd have taken it, even with the windshield as is. Hmm.

I actually live about seven miles from Kraynak's. They're sitting on two cases of wave one.

I've checked Boardman, Niles, and Warren. Nada, zip, zilch.
Especially at TRU. They haven't even gotten the Bumblebee case in yet, at either TRU.

Apparently Kohl's has been getting new figures in stock. I went to the one on Sawmill Rd. and they didn't have any BB's or Arcee but they did have 1 Dreadwing. I moved on to the Kohl's on Olentangy River Rd. and ta-da! They had the whole case. I bought both BB's and Arcee but left the Dreadwing. If you live in Columbus or the surrounding areas there's two Kohl's on Morse Rd. One across from where Northland mall used to be, and another across from Stoneridge Plaza in Gahanna. Check there, they might have 'em.

I was finally able to find the 08 Bumblebee today! It was at the Kohls store in Gahanna. They only had two left. I went ahead and picked them both up. I've seen enough people on here that are looking for them I figured someone would want him. I would rather see him go to someone on this board then for someone to sell on ebay. If anyone in the Columbus area is still looking for him send me a PM.

Kohl's is the way to go, I've been to 4 so far and found the Classic Camaro Bumblebee and got 2 '08 Bumblebees (one for my 4 year old).

Kohl's Sawmill -- Had multiples of the following... Swindle, Brawl, Bonecrusher, Jazz, Arcee.. and one or 2 others that I didn't recognize. Also, some various of the smaller lines, etc.

Kohl's S. Hamilton -- Had multiples of the following... Jazz, Barricade, Bonecrusher, Brawl.. and a few others. Also, some various of the smaller lines, etc.

Kohl's Morse Rd -- Had **ONE** '08 Bumblebee left (last night, as of 8:30 pm). Also, Bonecrusher, Jazz, Barricade, Brawl and one or 2 others that I didn't recognize.
Also, some various of the smaller lines, etc.

Kohl's West Broad -- Had one of each of the following... Swindle, Jazz, Bonecrusher, Brawl. That's it.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Also, as of 6 PM on Monday (8/13) the Target on Trueman Blvd (in Hilliard) had **ONE** Ultimate Bumblebee. I was going to update the sightings page and tried to add that location (still not listed there though) so I thought I would pass this along.. still had one as of last night.

Anything worthy in the cincinatti/covington area? I'm going there next week and hopefully I can find 09 bb because they havent hit the west coast yet.

Niles and Boardman Kohls have nothing but Cyber Slammers. And they knew exactly what type of figure (Deluxe Class) that I was looking for.

I'm getting so sick of this sh*t.

Normally I wouldn't bump a thread like this, but our fellow collectors need to know.

I called the Niles and Boardman Kohls again, and Niles continued to be a wash, though I do believe they have at least one Bumblebee, considering they have almost 10 cases of Deluxe Figures (79 figures to be exact!) but Boardman does indeed have '08 Bumblebee, Arcee, and Dreadwing.

They aren't on the shelves, they're in the back stockroom.
You need the UPC (Kohls will work, but if you must resort to it, use the one on the package itself.) and when you get a hold of the Children's department, tell them exactly what you're looking for. The new Camaro, not the classic (the woman actually knows what you're talking about too!) and they will hold it for you at Customer Service in the back of the store.

A fresh restock of wave 2 voyagers at Kohl's in Medina, OH today. They had 4 08 bumblebees.

I went to two Walmarts and one Meijer tonight. I saw a single voyager Megatron at Walmart, and two Cybertron Leader class Metroplexs. Got myself a Sunstreaker alternator on clearance, but passed up some Ricochets, which I kind of regret.

Meijer had a few Wreckages, nothing else besides all the role play junk.

Walmart has 2 Ultimate Bumble Bee's left .... Lewis Center (23), ohio...

Walmart on Morse Road has 4 Voyager Megatrons, 2 Voyager Optimus Primes, 2 Voyager Starscreams, 3 Voyager Wreckages left.

Meijer's at lewis center (23) Ohio just unpacked 2 boxes of deluxes... old bumblebees are being put on the shelf as i left.

Guys.. i'm a new collector and because of this, I hit every walmart and target between Columbus ohio and pittsburgh PA. I do this every thurs and friday. i do buy several of everything and if you are wanting something let me know and i will pick it up for you. Just this last trip I picked up many g1 jazz and g1 starscream repaints as well as 2 Leader Brawls. Just PM me. I live in Westerville, ohio.

Big score today.

Yesterday, nothing. Today, the very first Voyager Primes I've ever seen. Snagged him up at Walmart in Troy, there were 3 left.

And then we stopped by Kohl's for some clothes for the girlfriend, and I checked the toys. Pretty picked through, but found 76 Bumblebee for the first time since the week the movie came out. w00t.

Plus my custom prime sold. w00t, pretty fair day.

Hello everyone... I'm a new TF collector and would like to meet up with local collectors to do some buy/sell/trades. I have extras of almost every single movie figure inlcuding the g1 repaints and the new Leader Brawl.

I am in the columbus/westerville area and go to Pittsburgh PA every week so let me know if you are interested!

I just posted in the Buy/Sell/Trade forums but I would rather deal with local people.

Here is my thread

Please contact me!~

The Wal-Mart in Elyria has a bunch of wave 3/4 deluxes excluding 08 BB and Arcee which people snagged. There is still a few wideloads, recon barricades and a final battle Jazz there.

And I picked up the last Leader Class Brawl from the Wal-Mart at Avon Commons as well.

Getting so tired of the drought around here.

Anything in particular you are looking for? I have 3 Walmarts, 4 targets, 3 Kohl's and 3 meijer's around me... they have most of everything... I'll keep an eye out for you.

I just want a couple BB's

Target in the Graceland Shopping Center (71 and Morse Rd) just put out about 30 g1 Jazz and 30 g1 Starscreams. You will be able to get some as there is a sign that limits purchases... the sign also said they will not check inventory.

Target at Polaris still has 2 Ultimate Bumblebees and 1 Leader Brawl.

Walmart on Morse Road is completely wiped out except 1 Leader Brawl and 10 or so OP 20th Anniversary.

Wal mart at Lewis Center has a ton of classics Prime vs Megatron sets, and a bunch on Jetfire's, and the Autobot repaint of Booster x 10 aka Laserbeak.

Right off of Little Turtle or 161... North side of Hamilton Rd. I go up there (through Delaware) several times to get to Marion where my family lives. How far up Delaware are you?

I just did my run and the TRU on Morse and 71 just got in their Dropkicks, Payloads, Long Arm's etc... I got there at around 10:15 and the manager said two people already picked up the 08 BBs.

They do have 6 Leader Brawls and 4 Ultimate Bumblebees.

Walmart on morse road has 1 more Rescue Ratchet and 1 more thundercracker. I hid them behind all of the voyager megatrons.

There is also 1 more Ultimate Bumblebee there.

BTW... I don't know if this means they are being shipped again, but I found "LEADER FOR THE AGES" 2 pack 1984 and 2007 Optimus Prime Exclusive set in the Clearance section. The box was all banged up but the figures are perfect...
