I think it's cause California is closest to China. :-?

I'm just not surprised that the first sightings are in CA! Same thing with the Big Lots info - never seemed to materialize in IL. :BANG_HEAD:

Just glad I picked these up from HTS, as I've been wasting too much gas chasing TF's! :roll:

EDIT: I was referring to the Wreckers - didn't realize the news was combining threads/attaching Wreckers to Sharkticon Mega thread...

I actually found ONE Mega in a Wal-Mart in Palatine, IL. Sadly, the only one, but he was accompanied by Grimwing, Ultra Magnus, and Optimus. I'm guessing that's the entire wave? Cause that's just stupid planning if they think one Megatron per Voyager case is enough. :BANG_HEAD:

I actually spotted all these guys yesterday - in New York. TRU in Times Square has them in stock.

Next time, I'll report it! #-o

I saw two of each of the five bots for Ruination at the WalMart in East Peoria, IL two days ago. Was very tempted...

Re: Wreckers

Aside from their head sculpts, these guys don't interest me. I have the Combaticons because they are the Combaticons. But I wish I didn't have them. I wouldn't get the molds again.

The biggest news here is that they're listed at $12.99. I was sure TRU had marked up the price to $14.99 by now.

I live in NY and I usually hunt in NJ. I found them at the TRU on US22 and I figured they must be common now because I NEVER find stuff early here, too many scalpers. When I saw they wanted pics, I was shocked that no one sent any. Luckily I found a whole case so I got em all.

Yeah, all the mainline deluxes have been 12.99 lately. The movie figs are STILL priced at like 17.99 which blows my mind.

Honestly kind of pissed I even spotted these things yet I've yet to see any damn Cyberverse Shockwaves.

Also I've noticed them restocking Wave 1 for FoC and the only location for Bruticus I've seen in our area has been K-Mart

Actually, Alaska is closer to China than California. :-B

Yup, picked up 4 of 5 in the Kansas City Northland TRU. Now I have to hunt down an Impactor...

Very nice! Outside of Grimlock (which I snagged a few months ago), I am personally uninterested in Hasbro's FOC figures. If they go on crazy 'buy 1 get 2 free' clearance, which may very well happen around holiday time, I'll pick up a few, just for the sake of having them. We'll see.

I live in NYC, and hunt at the various Targets and TRUs accessible by bus/subway. I'm from NJ myself, and as such, I applaud your apparent ownership of a motor vehicle :APPLAUSE:

I just saw the FOC Wreckers at Walmart in Villa Park, IL, Rt. 83. There was one compelte set, and another minus Roadbuster.

They look really great in person, better than even Seibertron's great pics. Amazing but true!
