California Transformers sightings
Checked a bunch of Walmarts in So Cal...
I checked 4 Walmarts here in San Diego and couldn't find squat. Two said "none on hand and non-replenishable". The employees that helped me were speculating that they had some at one point because it actually showed in their system that there was such an item. But I have a feeling they just never received them in. Do any of you all know for a fact that if it said "none on hand and non-replenishable", they actually received some in? I also checked 3 Walmarts in Orange County the last weekend with no luck. I have a strong feeling they have yet to hit Cali anytime soon. If anyone in the San Diego/OC area happen to come across any, please let me know. Thanks!! I want to get a couple before the damn scalpers get to them first.

I plan to go hit up 5 WM in my area tomorrow, since I'll be done with classes somewhat early. Not hopeful, but hey at least to check and see if they've ever had them in the first place.

Oh good, I was wondering about this. Which stores in SD had them in the system? Supposedly the Walmarts that have them in system are the only ones that're going to be getting them. In other words, if it's not in the system, they're not likely to be getting it.
So yeah, since we're both in SD, I'll make sure to keep a lookout. If I see them, I'll buy two (or three for the other SD folks), and we can arrange to meet in a shady area at night and make the discrete transfer.

Walmart in Duarte, restock on deluxe's. Saw like 5x voyagers 2x megs.and 3x ratchets 2nd wave. Sill no sign for MP-SS. I read a post on TFW2005 on their cali sightings. Some guy in Sac-town talk to on of the workers there in WM. They said that its on route arriving this thurs. They have 18 that's going to be on their store and 150 on route. Hopefully we will get ours soon, but I dont want to go by this though. We will see. Hopefully its true. Oh and I saw this today. Ult. BB w/ 2 deluxes brawl and scorponoks Good luck guys!

When they said 150, was that for the surrounding area, or how much their store will get in total ? Thanks.
Well this is what WEBZ posted!
BIG NEWS! BIG NEWS!!!
Sacramento area Starscream fans..... I was harassing an employee to do a UPC search... Masterpiece Starscream will be hitting Sacramento area stores sometime between Thursday night and Saturday morning. He knew this because there are 18 orders for his store (in Roseville) and none in the distribution warehouse, but 150 en route to the warehouse.
There... did your homework for you. Thank me with love and adoration... or just give me xbox games.
Hopefully this helps.

Voyager Ironhide
I saw that post on Sunday by Tom that they have an Ironhide at Walmart Westminster. I doubt that it will still be there.
If you guys see a voyager Ironhide, please stash em. I will drive down and obtain them anywhere within 30 miles of downtown LA. OH, and a BB Concept 08 would be a nice bonus as well, even though I got evolution of a hero (battle damaged 08 BB).
