Nope, I'm actively looking for Premium Bumblebee and Barricade myself. So far, no luck.

I was at two Targets today and it looks like they are using most of the space that Transformers used to occupy for Incredible Hulk figures.

Quite the miracle considering this Target's usually had squat in the past.

FWIW, the KB Toys in Woodfield Mall had a stack of Energon figs, mostly Sharkticon, Steamhammer, and Barricade- 3 great figs, FWIW. $10.

Target in Elgin on Randall and Rt 20 had a Premium Barricade (I got it), and more Stealth BB's and Salvages as well as a Premium Blackout.
Same story at the Target in West Dundee on Rt 72 except I left the Premium Barricade there as well as the two Premium Jazzs.
No Premium BB's sighted, but I am actively looking for him.
Today must have been Target's big restocking day.

2 Premium Barricades and 1 premium Ironhide.
Also stopped by the Wal-mart on East State Street, Rockford Area also.
They had 1 premium Blackout and 2 premium Ironhides.
Last stop was Toys-R-Us on Perryville Road. They were brimming with
Transformers. 2 Premium Blackouts and 2 Premium Ironhides, 1 premium
Megatron, 2 Wingblades and 1 Jetstorm.
The above is hardly a complete rundown, but only that which stuck out
most to me. If you happen to find yourself in the area, pop in to these stops, who knows what you might find?

I'm still wondering where all the packs that were on those aisle displays at a couple of Wal-Marts disappeared to when the the displays were broken up.
