At the WM on Cobb Parkway in Marietta, saw legends Beachcomber and Brawn, both of which are very nice.

I noticed at the Airport Thruway WM here in Columbus that the animated shelf tags were all for Animated Waspinator. I think they are getting ready to put them out soon. Problem is it's hit or miss on the 7.77 deal now, depends which WM you go to in Columbus...

Yeah, it appears that as they do the shelf update, the price goes back to 10 bucks. Wish I'd picked up Cyclonus at new year when he was cheap and available.

Target on Cobb Parkway had a fresh shipment of Classics/Universe deluxe figures, still at the 7.77 price. They also had two of the Animated Jetfire/Jetstorm boxed sets. Better looking in person but still a solid "no" from me.

WM on Chastain Meadows had 25th Dinobot and Smokescreen this morning. Only one Smokescreen but several Dinobot. I like the character (Dinobot) and the new mold is a def improvement but I didn't get it. It looks like it could be a shelf warmer so I'm sure I'll have another chance.

Also there I saw Animated Swindle and Blurr for the first time. Both looked nice in the package but I think I am done with the Animated line. I liked it at first and got a lot of figures, but I'm over it. I don't see myself getting any more of them, unless they release a Rodimus Prime.

Saw Universe Smokescreen, Dinobot, Cyclonus, and Cheetor at the WM on Epps Bridge in Athens-quite a few of each. Price is 9.96 though.

Heads up, TRU on Atlanta Highway had one Smokescreen, Starscream, Cyclonus, Prowl, and one or two Chetors. They also had that Animated Jetfire and Jetstorm set, among some other stuff but I didn't pay much attention since I don't care for Animated.

They had An Dinobot but I got it, and some kid behind me got Hound so those two are gone.

I'm on the lookout for Legends Brawn and Warpath in the Athens/North Atlanta area. If these two are spotted, please post immediately. Do not try to apprehend yourself as they are considered armed and dangerous.

Hmm i didn't realize that there was a sightings for GA. I guess ill post for Savannah and surrounding.

I've seen Samuri Prowl and Waspinator at several Walmarts in the Atlanta area. Most recently, at the Walmart on Cobb Parkway.

Also, some of you might have already verified this but I've seen the 8.99 Deluxe Animated figures at Targets around ATL.

Spotted:
At Target on Cobb Parkway, they had one of each of the Transformers wave 1 Mighty Muggs.

At the new Target off 316 in Winder/Bethlehem, saw a bunch of the Shockwave and Sunstorm boxed sets, on an inside endcap.

Wal-Mart on Chastain Meadows in Marietta/Kennesaw has new Universe deluxes this morning. I got the last Hot Shot but there were several Ratchets. They are also overloaded with animated deluxes and there are still several Smokescreen, Dinobot and Cheetor from universe.

by **Mandamus** » Wed May 27, 2009 7:06 pm

Anyone going to the release this Friday at the Kennesaw TRU? That store is 3 traffic lights from my house so I will probably go.

Hey everyone. I went to the Target in Macon, Georgia, and managed to spot The Fallen, Demolisher, Megatron Leader Class, Rampage, Sideswipe, a few deluxe bumblebees, and Starscream. The isle was nearly in a mess, so I guess buyers searched thoroughly and left with what they wanted. I left the store happy with The Fallen and Demolisher.

The SuperWalmart in Milledgeville, Georgia has many Deluxe figures when I checked the weekend after the figures were released, and they had everything except The Fallen. I bought Rampage and the sole Shockwave out of the selection.

A daughter-congrats! You won't need figures for a while then.

Has anyone managed to track down a voyager Megatron or deluxe? Ravage. I also have an update for the Super Walmart in Milledgeville has

Scouts - All scouts were on the shelves.

Deluxe- Bumblebee, FEW rampage and Sideswipe, and a lot of Sideways. Soundwave is still no where to be found.

Voyager- Ironhide, starscream, Demolishor,

Leader - Megatron and Optimus Prime

I need to talk to my friend who works there to see when the next shipment will arrive, if he knows.

The Target on 316 in Winder had the Voyager Megatron and Mixmaster. They also had 5-6 Superion sets.

Thank you!

As for sightings, Target on Barrett Pkwy has put out the wave 2 movie deluxe and voyager. First time I'd seen the Ratchet repaint.

Hey again everyone. My super walmart in Milledgeville finally received the newest waves of deluxes, and new voyagers from past waves.

Huge stock of Mudflaps, Smokescreens, Skids, Chromias, and even a few deep desert brawls were on shelves. I was surprised that I saw two Fallen figures in Voyagers too. The same single stratosphere is still on the floor, going on for a month now. Surprisingly,and still a minor disappointment, Voyager megatron, mixmaster, or jetfire has not been seen, after i thoroughly checked the entire section.

The new Target on 316 in Winder had 1 Leader Jetfire, the first I've seen in the state. The only downside to this one was that one of the leds in it's chest is not working. Cool figure though.

News Credits: 198 · by **DevastaTTor** » Sun Sep 13, 2009 8:25 pm

The WalMart on Epps Bridge in Athens had several Leader Jetfires, and all Leaders are $35. Disregard my post above about the burned out led in the Target Jetfire, apparently they're all like that-just one chest light.

Also, the Target on 316 in Winder had several Bruticus Max and more Superions.

Well, Warner Robins TRU had a bout 8 Universe Infernos when I went in last Saturday. Dark Wind w as also there along with a couple two packs of ones i can't remember. It contained An ROTF Grindor repaint I believe. One ROTF Demolisher was in there, then a couple of Voyager Megatron and one of each, Ironhide and Ratchet. Of course Animated was present in there, but I'm not a fan.. Vector prime was in there as well.
