would you happen to know what wave of voyagers that was at wal mart?.... im looking for a regular voyager starscream, but it seems that stores are only getting rescue ratchets and thundercracks

if you need a leader prime, im guessing your best bet might be costco because they have the leader prime exclusive there.... and people barley check costco for toys. and last i heard, costcos had stacks of these just sitting there.... try caling a costco near you to find out if they still have any. good luck.
Yea, I'm looking for the optimus prime, not the mega or brawl, those seem to be everywhere, Targets DPCI number is the same for all the $39.99 ones, so when it shows in stock, it could be the other ones, I checked Costco yesterday, but to no avail. I thought I remeber seeing prime before, but all of a sudden he's gone, the guy at Walmart said that some "collector" came in and bought all the voyager primes that were in the overstock section, so he must have got all the leaders in the area too.
you might be in luck, walmart.com has leader primes in stock, and just site to store that sucker.

Sorry Tom the boxes were sealed. On the side it said Voyagers. Im going to make attempt to go over there tomorrow. If I see one I will grab it. Are you and misb collector or do you open your Transformers? If you are an misb I will only grab one if the box looks good.

I didnt want to get it cause the box was a mess (yes im a box whore, sorry! LOL) For some reason I see more deluxe Barricade and 76 BB all over. Oh yeah! All these where at Target in Eagle Rock, Pasadena, El Monte and the Arcee was in Walmart in El monte (lots of voyager megs too!).
So please if anybody! HELP!!!!
Have you tried any Kohls ? they seem to have Arcee's more than other stores for some reason, I wish I knew about you wanting BB, I saw one this morning at Whittier Target, but it is gone, do you ever get down around whittier ? I will stash one for you if I see one.

I had that page bookmarked and happened to click on there late last night and got one, thanks for looking out for me, I haven't seen any starscreams for some reason, thundercrackers and RR only. Have a good one.

Sealed boxes should never stop you. In two occasions I have seen boxes like that (with that plastic wrap) and i end up getting the box and getting what I want. Hence my BB 08, all deluxe, and 25th anniversary joes (i took the whole box)

Thanks

Erroneous wrote:It seems like there is no problems finding any of the Movie toys anymore, at least in San Diego. I did a GI Joe hunt today and found plenty of Tformer figs in all of the usual stores (Walmart, Target, Toysrus). So if you're down here and looking, you shouldn't have to look far. However I keep reading about all of the Joe's found up north in the L.A. area but I haven't been able to find crap of the new waves anywhere in the San Diego area. If anyone around here sees anything please let me know.
yea, ive been seeing plenty of wv 3 gi joe figures lately, but havent seen any wave 2s (still need serpentor). as for TFs, theyre everywhere, even had chances to buy deluxe BBs at least 5 times but passed those up. i'll try to post up more sightings other than TFs on here from now on; gi joes, marvel legends, starwars.... until the next big hunts for mp ss and allspark power comes out.... so all the toys i need now are just serpentor and voyager starscream, and maybe those new robot heroes. happy hunting all.
