The Energon Pub

Made a few runs today.

Everett WalMart:
Nothing really besides Ultimate Bumblebee

Everett Fred Meyers:
Leader Optimus (2)

Lynnwood Target:
Some G1 Jazz

Lynwood Toys R Us:
Voyager Megatron, Starscream, Ironhide, & Ratchet

Lynnwood Kohls:
They had some Deluxes
1 Swindle left (picked up one for Eddie)
2 Arcee
2 Wreckage
2 Dreadwing
2 Scorps
2 Bonecruser

I asked in the back if they had any more. They brought out a box and I took Bumblebee (for Eddie).

Right now they have a decent price, instead of 12.99 it's the normal $10.

I was going to stop by Lynnwood WalMart, but I was too tired.

Thanks again Tony! I swear, you're the master at hunting these things down! I don't have any luck down here in the south end. Went to Renton Walmart, Fred Meyer (Renton Center and Benson Center), Toys R Us at Southcenter, Target at Southcenter, and the Fred Meyer in Burien... NOTHING!!! Well, let me rephrase that.. Target at Southcenter did have some of those Scout class exclusives but not many..
I didn't bother going to the Target in West Seattle becasue I went there last night and they didn't have anything except some G1 Jazz..

BB206, you da man!

Dont worry about the Everett Wal-Mart BB.206. The choices were "diddly" and "squat" so I went back home to admire my new Armorhide. Couldn't have bought anything, anyway but since it's only 2 streets over from me, figured I would check for the rest of ya. Sucked being broke since I found a Hot Wheels Trailer I could kit-bash for Armorhide (idea courtesy of Transtopia) but had to leave it behind.

Oopps! read the posts too quickly. BB already knew that Everet Wal-Mart had squat...and I made a trip for nothing other than frustrating myself. If I catch up with Matt later I'll check out the Lynnwood store on the way home just to make myself not feel so foolish.

Man you said nothing at Benson Center Fred Meyer?? Hummm, what do you consider nothing? I just picked one of 2 Deluxe Barricades that have been there for almost a week now. One still remaining along with tons of scorponok, wreckage, brawls and jazzes. That location always seems to have a lot the ones I mentioned if anyone is interested. I guess you're just looking for hard to find ones?

Puyallup Target- nothing but G1 Jazz and Ultimate.
Puyallup Walmart- Voyager Megs, and ton of 20th Primes (may get one if they go on sale at some point)
Puyallup Fred Meyer- Nothing as Usual.

Still searching for Leader Megs, T-Cracker, and Rescue Ratchet. All I have for trading is Leader Prime and Concept BB.

Apparently Factoria Target has some movie deluxes. Give them a call at 425-562-0830. I would go over there to check out what they have, but there isn't anything I MUST have right now.

First time poster.

I've been reading this forum for a few weeks now and I have to say that I'm impressed with the amount of commradery here. Alot of people seem to be helping each other out and I wanted to offer my help as well.

I collect alot of Transformers and Star Wars and hunt often all over the Seattle area. I haven't met any Transformer collectors yet, but would like to network and meet up.

I'll be doing a "power-hunt" tomorrow, so if anyone needs help looking for stuff, let me know.

You are correct, the Benson and Renton Center FM's both have deluxe figures but they are the older ones like Jazz, Wreckage and Scorponx. I did see the Barricade figs but I passed. Haven't seen any of the new figures at FM yet.

so i have a quick question : called TRU Bellevue today just to see if they have anything. they asked for the item #'s for what i was looking for (BBconcept and Leader Brawl) and they said that they don't have them on file and that the item numbers are 6 digits long not 5 digits long....did hasbro list the wrong numbers or did i speak to someone who is a complete (insert colorful metaphor here)!

Looks like both Lynnwood Target and Everett Target had movie deluxes this morning. Hopefully kids/fans picked them up.

I'm also hearing that they have some voyagers left, not sure which ones. I'll stop by after I get off work, but I think I'll be too late to get anything good. Don't get off until 4:30...ehhh.

This is Everett btw.

Puyallup

Target- Voyager Ratchet, Megs, Starscream, Ironhide (I think), Prime and Frenzy Robot Replicas, the exclusive scouts and the rest that I previously listed.

TRU- 6 Leader brawls, couple different crappy TRU exclusives,

Walmart- FB Jazz, and nothing special

From what I hear...a lot of Targets restocked today. I guess tomorrow wont be a good day to check for new things at Target.

I might make some stops at Toys R Us and WalMarts tomorrow.

Well, Mudfan I can't answer your question about 5 digits or 6, but keep in mind that this is the same TRU that was "supposed" to have a new shipment ready wednesday morning, which prompted my excited posting and cost BB.206 some gas money for a lot of nothing. I'm losing faith in the employees at that one.

Ok hommie I thought when you said nothing you really meant nothing. I never see Barricades anymore so when I do I have to snag one!! Yeah, I agree seeing the same stuff over and over is sorta weak.

Hey, I heard new scouts are out; air raid, armor hide and one other. Went to verify it last night at Target and sure enough the empty tags stated, "scouts..$7.99" SWEET!!!

Our Washington State Seibertron Forum kicks ASS!!

Well I went to check Target to see if they really restocked. They did have Deluxes, Voyagers, & FABs.

Target (Everett):

Had nothing left when I got there, but talking to an employee he told me they were stocked this morning.

Target (Lynnwood):

Still had:
Megatron FAB
Frenzy FAB
Bumblebee FAB

Payload
Longarm
Final Battle Jazz
G1 Jazz

Leader Brawl (I had it in my hands for Mudfan, but a kid really wanted it, so I gave it to him, sorry man I'll keep looking.)

Lynnwood WalMart looked it stocked this morning as well they still had Payload, Final Battle Jazz, and Longarm.

I guess who ever hit Lynnwood Target/WalMart also hit the Kohls, they have no more Arcees and Swindles and they only have one of each of the deluxes I named yesterday.

hey man no worries about leader brawl i actually did find him today at the toys r us in bellevue so im good there so the only i need help with now is just bumblebee but thanks man for looking

You gotta watch those little kids. Just like the toys they're after there's "More To Them Than Meets The Eye"!
My boy's are well coached, eagle-eyed hunters and will work you over with those little kid eyes then run back to Dad with their big score and haul ass up to the register before you even realize you are empty handed. I don't encourage any "crooked" behavior, my boys are just determined (like me)
and their Mom & I make them work for their money so they like to make the most of it.

hey mudfan, i was also looking for a 08 bumblebee until BB206 found one for me last week at kohls, he also found a swindle for me too. i went out this morning and found another BB so picked it up cause i knew you were looking for one. im planning on meeting up with BB206 this weekend. i live down south and was planning to meet him in the northgate area so shoot us a message if you want to meet up.

by the way.. walmart and fred meyers in renton has restocked the deluxe figs. nothing new, just the typical stuff like FB Jazz, longarm, barricade, brawl, payload, dreadwing.. etc..

Has anybody heard from Air Commander Starscream. I still have his Armorhide but I am very much in need of gas money and can't wait much longer. If I don't hear from him soon would anyone else be interested in being the back-up buyer?
I wouldn't normally sell something out from under a person but I'm in a tight spot.
This re-paint is pretty cool looking and would make a nice addition to a collection. If I hadn't been hasty and opened my own already I would return it instead, but now that it's open it looks sweet with my other Movie figures.

Sent you a pm last night, sorry for the late response. The past few days have been slamed for me.

Ok first off thank you, thank you, thank you RodimusTitan!!! I managed to snag that payload you mentioned might be at Walmart in Renton. Yessssss! I have been wanting that one for a while now! Still looking for recon and dropkick.

So the up to the minute Renton details if you are looking are as follows:

x3 Barricades at FM (downtown) in Renton along all the usual deluxes (one brawl left too)

x2 Final Battle Jazzes at walmart

x1 Longarm at walmart

This forum kicks ASS! if it werent for this, i'd be so far behind in my collection. So if anyone else out there needs anything, feel free to say so.. there are alot of good, helpful people on the site!

so with that said... has anyone seen rescue ratchet or thundercracker yet?
