California Transformers sightings
Rosemead Wal-Mart had a pallet with sealed boxes of transformers movie replicas and movie voyagers. Target in Alhambra had 2 Voyagers Thundercrackers and one voyager Megatron. They also had some Target exclusives. I won’t have time to go to Wal-Mart tomorrow but I am going to try and hit the Target in Alhambra tomorrow morning and see what they have.

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.

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)

Wal-Mart Duarte: 2 Leader class Primes and 2 Megatrons leader class. They have Voyagers near the movie section. I saw Rescue Ratchet, Megatron, and Thundercracker. The boxes for the voyagers were trashed. They also have an Exclusive Ultimate Bumblebee were you get a deluxe Brawl and deluxe Scorpnok. They have a lot of fast action battlers.

I went to Pasadena Target this morning. They had a lot of Deadwing, Dropkick, Scorpnok, Payload, Swindle, and Brawl Deluxe figures. They had one leader class Prime, Megatron, and 2 Brawls. They only had voyager Megatron. I made a great grab on the G I JOES 25TH Anniversary. I grab Shipwreck, Firefly, Cobra Red Ninja, 2 Cobra Officers, Sgt. Stalker, and Zartan. All that was left was 2xSnakeeyes and 3xStormshadow.

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.
