I'm LF Wheeljack, Warpath and Thundercracker near Marietta. I've been checking the Atlanta (exit 252) Walmart, but these 3 aren't there.

Edit:
Errrr.. I just checked Alpharetta Wally and these 3 are not there!

I would keep checking the stores that you don't think have gotten them. Those stores will probably be the ones that get them next. I live very close to the Roswell Wal mart, and it doesn't look like they have gotten them yet but I think they should soon cause they have finally sold most of their generations figs. Most walmarts start bringing the new pallets out right at or after 10 pm. If you go during that time you should be able to spot the generations case on one of the pallets if they get them. That may be your best chance.

It tends to vary. Usually Monday and Friday are good days to check, replenishing the stores for the weekend and to start the week. Target stores get a minimum 3 trucks a week and most Walmarts get a truck a day. Depends on market, stores sales and volume, etc.

I just found these 3 plus Deep Dive at the Ross' outside of Atlanta.

I had begun to give up hope, but when i saw Grapple, I nearly slid into the toy shelf like a runner sliding for home plate.

Thanks for the heads up! No windchargers huh? I went to the Ross in Alpharetta last week sometime and they had nothing. Also checked out tj maxx alpharetta, nothing. I guess I'll keep looking.

i found a few bumble bees at marshalls but no grapples or windchargers....

Wed Jun 15, 2011 7:49 am

yeah, no windchargers. Yesterday I found only lugnut and deepdive at Ross stores. I think some ninja collector is snatching up all the Grapples.

Thu Jun 16, 2011 12:00 pm

found grapple in douglassville last one but they still had deep dive... i and the ninja collector is some cat name joe he goes to discount stores just to buy formers on clearance he never pays full price! lol!

The ross in buckhead (next to marshalls) has a few rotf leader class starscreams for $20.

Wal mart on mansell had 2 movie thundercrackers on monday. They are not in the main toy aisle but on a transformer endcap display near the front of the store, near the Pharmacy. I didn't buy one.

Canton Wal-Mart also had several movie Thundercrackers out yesterday, they were also in a seperate display near the front door, so they're around.

Kennesaw TRU has all of the Kre-o sets out now. I got the larger Bumblebee set and built it the other night. I really like it and plan to get the rest. That TRU also had the Voyager Fireblast Optimus.

Wheeljack, Warpath & Thundercracker now available at Walmart in Marietta!

Wed Jun 22, 2011 1:02 pm

Wal-Mart in Cartersville had the exclusive Optimus and Bumblebee deluxe figures. I wasn't impressed with either figure. The Bumblebee is just a repaint of the concept version from the first movie. They had several of each. They also had the exclusive Voyager Optimus with the repaint of Landmine as a lunar buggy (I can't remember the new character name.) The Optimus has stars painted all over it and a reflection of Earth on the windshield.

Wed Jun 22, 2011 2:08 pm

Yeah, IMO, most all of the movie figures(including the whole DOTM line) are crap. I don't plan to buy any. RTS and Generations are the best lines they've had in a long time.

Since you posted this I decided to go to the Wal Mart in roswell to see if they had any. They are Fully stocked on New Generations Figures. Kup, Scourge, and at least 5 EACH of Warpath, Thundercracker, wheeljack. They are in the movie display and hanging on the pegs all in the main toy aisle. I bought only 1 of each of the latter.

On a side note:
Only thing is Many of the Tcrackers wheeljacks warpaths had crushed bubbles. Seriously i think someone is doing this on purpose. So if someone is doing this on purpose, and you read this, PLEASE STOP! You are only frustrating local collectors and not doing anything to increase the toys value. Thousands of these figures have been produced so if you crush 5 or 10 at 1 store what do you think that is accomplishing? If you are pissed cause you can't buy them all, leave them undamaged for other collectors. Thank You.

i guess i'm late to the party i was just about to say that i saw tcracker wheeljack and warpath last night... has anyone come across windcharger??? his ebay price is ridiculous!!!

Check TJ Maxx ASAP. The RTS Voyager wave has started to show up there. I Got Grappel, Strafe and Lugnut. I found them at Northpoint Tj Maxx and Perimeter. I didn't see any more Grappels or strafes at either of those stores but both still had a Lugnut. I also found rts legends Prowl at the perimeter store. No Windchargers or anyone from the scout wave...at least not yet

Fri Jun 24, 2011 7:14 am

Found HA Roadbuster at Barrett Pkwy Wal-Mart this morning. I got the last one but that was the first time I'd seen it, so maybe it'll start popping up at other stores now.

Mon Jun 27, 2011 7:33 pm

Maybe I missed this but are there going to be any meetups around town tomm night before the movie ?

Tue Jun 28, 2011 1:46 pm

Found Gears at TJMaxx NW of Perimeter. I typically stay away from ROTF, but I hadn't seen him before, thought maybe he would be a hard to find figure one day.
