Indiana Transformers sightings
Re: Indiana Sightings
Animated has shown up in Hobart/Merrillville area at the Wal-Mart there. So far just the deluxes, however the Voyagers are on their way hopefully within the next few days. Here's pix of BB & Ratchet who I picked up, along with the receipt, & a pic of one of the boxes on a pallet there.

Saw the new Marvel crossovers at Target Glenbrook today. They have all 4.
No new TF's and what they did have was pretty picked over.

Re: Indiana Sightings
Got Encore Metroplex today. I haven't opened him up yet.
Looking for Animated Ultra Magnus, Swoop and S. Prime and Universe Sideswipe, Ironhide, Silverstreak, Treadbolt, and Stormcloud. I'm figuring anytime on seeing any of these in stores.
I also got Universe Unicron last week at TRU.

Glad to hear somebody else out there since the site had the temporary shutdown. I had reported seeing Unicron at TRU Glenbrook just before the crash. I haven't been back since though.
I'm going to the Detroit area this weekend and plan to see if there is any of the new stuff out yet.
I did preorder Shockwave, Inferno, Hound, Cyclonus, and Starscream at BBTS, I figured I would find Skywarp on the shelves readily enough.

Re: Indiana Sightings
I found EG BB. S. Prime and Swoop at the Clinton WM today. I especially wanted S. Prime and Swoop, but I took BB too just because of the sale. I always seem to find figures I'm looking for at this WM and the one in Sullivan.

I was a bit disappointed in the Detroit area stores. They had very little in Animated or Universe at all, let alone anything new. I did see plenty of Unicrons at the two TRU's I visited while there.
Was at the TRU Glenbrook and Target on Wednesday and neither one had anything new. WM on Coldwater had a lot of deluxes for $7.77, including Acid Storm and Megatron and most of the Animated line. Still no UM around, glad I got mine off the web.
I ordered the new Universe wave Ironhide,Silverstreak, and Sideswipe, along with Treadbolt and Stormcloud off Hasbro with that 10% off coupon. They have all the new stuff in stock and shipping immediately.
I'm patiently waiting for the Seacons and the City Commander set.

Re: Indiana Sightings
I went ahead and ordered all the new Universe figures from HTS. After I did some figuring, it is cheaper to go that way instead of driving to WM in hopes that they might have a certain figure. So now I'm waiting for them to be sitting on my doorstep in the next couple of days.

I saw one each of SPrime and EGBB at the WM on Lima Rd.,( didn't take, have already) I would of taken Swoop to have an extra if they would have had him, but they were out. All deluxes were $7.77.
Went looking for the Megatron ornament at Kohls on Illinois but they were out, save for the display. I might try Northcrest tomorrow.
WM Coldwater had alot of AS deluxes for $7.77.

Got my Seacon set today from TCC- I'm impressed. I haven't taken it out of the box yet. I would say it was worth the $119.
Got notice from BBTS my City Commander set shipped today.

Re: Indiana Sightings
Apple Glen Wal-Mart had Sentinel Prime, Swoop, and E.G. Bumblebee on the shelf this morning. They also had a case of wave 3 Universe Deluxe on a pallet which I liberated an Ironhide from (I picked up Sideswipe and Silverstreak at the Coldwater Wal-Mart a few days ago).

I received my Binaltech Optimus/Convoy from BBTS yesterday.
If you are a fan of the Alternator line you'ld definately want to get this one. He's over 1 lb. of mainly die-cast with a really rich red paint job.
I ordered the upgrade kit for him so he'll have his own BFG!

The Wal-Mart here on SR 46 had at least 3 Treadbolts as of yesterday afternoon. Two had damaged boxes liked someone played football with them before putting them on the shelf. The other's box looked alot better.

My City Commander armor for my Classics UM was waiting for me yesterday when I got back from vacation and all I can say is that if you are considering getting this I definately would. It's awesome!
I preordered the black set for my Nemesis Prime too.

Re: Indiana Sightings
I found the Mini-con 12 pack at K-Mart today. I took the only one they had.
The Wal-Mart on SR 46 has Roll Out Command Optimus Prime on sale for $41.98.
Wal-Mart on US 41 has the 25th Anniversary OP. There were about five or six there. I think I'll pass on that, but if it goes on sale I might consider picking it up. The packaging is really nice.
TRU had nothing that hasn't already been reported.
I'm still on the hunt for Animated Ultra Magnus.

Hasbro has Animated Shockwave and Skywarp in stock, I ordered Shockwave today with that 20% off coupon.
I still haven't seen UM around here, glad I preordered it from BBTS.
Nothing new around here, Aldi's has Animated for 7.69 and the SW Crossovers for 9.99. They have also have Neo-Shifters for 7.99.
I got the Commander Cody Tank to do the UM paint job on like Jin Satome did.

Re: Indiana Sightings
I found Animated Ultra Magnus at the Marshall, IL Wal-Mart this morning hiding behind two leader Bulkheads. It was the only one and I was unsure about the light blue parts where the picture on the box them being white. I took him anyway.
HTS says it has Animated Skywarp available for shipping now. Shockwave was sold out. I guess those two are the next ones to be looking for.
