stevenson ranch wal mart had 4 alts skids left last time i was there this past weekend.

Brokaw, sorry to bust into the cali thread (mom is from El Segundo, does that help?) but I can't help but notice how rescue ratchet and thundercracker seem to to be creeping their way up the west coast. As of today only one of each have been reported in our entire state!!! I'm getting that funny feeling again that I might have to make one of those all night runs to a bunch of stores? Do you think this is premature due to the fact that very few have been found here? Maybe we are finally poised to get rr and tc up here in the Pacific North West? Last time you inspired me I scored big time...remember? Are you guys really drowning in rr and tc in so cal? Around here rr and tc are only spoken of in legendary, whispers and rumors.

The pegs were full when I was there, so I'm guessing they were stocked relatively recent to my visit. They were maybe mid-way on some of the pegs. Way more classic BB, though. The car mode is real nice on the new camaro, too bad I can't stand the movie robot designs...

The Wal Mart off Sycamore and 78 also had a bunch of movie deluxes in a display near the main isle, too Thurs night. It's the most I've seen of them since I started hunting around. Wish some of the classic deluxes or alts would show up again.

Off topic, has anyone seen the 25th aniv GI Joes single figures in San Diego? I've seen some in North County targets maybe a month and a half, two months ago, but nothing recently. Wal Mart has pegs for them, but I've never seen one there.

Target Laguna Niguel:

-4 Ultimate Shelfwarmers... I mean Bumblebees
-Several Leader Shelfwarmers... I mean Brawls
-Several assorted Wave 1 Deluxes
-Several new Scouts
-And I grabbed the last Movie G1 Starscream.

They also put out Titaniums often. None were out today, however, last time I went, they had 4 G1 Scourges.

thinking about going to f$s tomorrow just to see what i can snag.... but geez i hate that place .

WST Ultra Magnus for $7 is really an awesome deal. Good grab buddy!

I've only been to F&S once and it was during August, extremely hot, also it was on Wednesday so about 1/3 of vendors weren't exhibiting. So I didn't stay long and browse thoroughly. Perhaps I will try to find one Saturday in November to go check it out again.

PS: see any vendor selling Binaltechs there?

Edit: Got my TRU soundwave there too. I love this reissue, attractive book style and double cassettes too!

Cheers man!

If anyone is still looking for voyager class Megatron, Rescue Ratchet, or Thundercracker then you should head over to the Duarte Wal-Mart. They have a large amount of these figures on the top shelf in their toy clearance section. The toys are not on clearance; they are just located in that area because Wal-Mart is loading up with toys for the holidays and need the space.
