Passed by the veterans TRU @ lunch, they had

Tracks x2
Jazz
Wreck Gar
G2 Prime x2
Perceptor

I almost bought another Tracks to play around with (like I did with Kup and Jazz).

Passed through the TRU on Vets. Still nothing. There were RTS G2 Primes and BB's, but that's about it.

Wonder when we'll see the RTS scouts and voyagers. Hell, when are we going to see what appears to be the last wave of Power Core Combiners? :???:

Tue Mar 01, 2011 9:32 pm

The Dinobots et al? I've seen a few here and there. Still no Windcharger...

No windcharger sightings here either..

I saw the new DOTM preview Prime @ the veterans TRU. They had plenty of them on the end cap (now fitted with TF's) and in the isle.

Wed Mar 16, 2011 1:38 pm

Nice find! Hopefully the end caps will get some new rts and generations too...

Thanks for the info CB. I'm not really interested in the preview figure personally. I think I'd rather wait for the bigger DOTM figures (which should be hitting stores soon I'd imagine). Still no sign of Windcharger or any new PCC figures! :-x

Hey guys, just a heads up, my biddy just got his Warpath from BBTS, I'm assuming we'll start seeing them hit shelves soon. Since this is likely going to be one of the hardest to find toys this run, perhaps we should... stoop to some less than altruistic means of helping one another find him. Of course I'm talking about stashing any extras we find say, behind the Zoobles... If I come across any I'll gladly pick up an extra and sell it back to anyone here who wants it at cost. Happy hunting!

sounds like a plan.
I just checked and BBTS has his as a preorder still.

Tue Apr 05, 2011 8:52 am

Ya they've also upped their price by $10 since last I checked... I'm thinking that they sent out their initial pre-orders and grabbed some more. I'll link pics when he sends them over.

Been a long time since I posted in this thread, but I just checked the sightings for Leader Class Sentinel Prime, and it's apparently been sighted at a Super Walmart here in New Orleans. I checked the Walmart on Vets yesterday (along with the Kmart, Target, and TRU on Vets) and didn't see a thing. So I guess maybe they started putting them out today or something.

Thu May 12, 2011 8:00 pm

I was just thinking that its been a while since I've seen any posting regarding sightings. Nothing in BR save for the preview fig.

News Credits: 104 · Fri May 13, 2011 7:20 pm

I have not seen anything new in eons either..

I hit there about twice a week (I drive around a lot for my job) and those stores have been empty for a while.

As far as kitbashing, i don't know much about it..

Mon May 16, 2011 8:40 am

I know I saw a leader bubble bee at the wal-mart in Algiers about 2days ago.. But the only had one. And I'm not gonna be buying to much out this line.. So I'll let y'all know what else I see.

Mon May 16, 2011 10:11 am

Nice to see another fellow Louisianian here Oskie! I live in Metairie so I don't think I'll be going to the Westbank unless I have to (I hate paying the toll!). Still, today is the 16th, so most stores should have the new figures for sale. Yesterday, I went to the Walmart in Kenner and saw DOTM Voyager Prime and DOTM Voyager Ironhide. I have no interest in either of these figures so they should still be there.

I work near Chalmette though, so I'll pass around the Walmart there when I get off of work as well as the Walmart on Vets. I suppose it wouldn't hurt for me to try TRU either since I basically live around the corner from the place.

During lunch I stopped at the Tchoupitoulas Wal Mart and nabbed Shockwave and Powerglide..

So far I opened PG and he is kind of growing on me..

Mon May 16, 2011 1:29 pm

Well, here's what I have to report for metairie:
Vets wm: nothing
Both kmarts: nothing
Target: nothing
Esplanade wm: had new stuff
TRU: had new stuff
Huey Long WM: had new stuff
The 2 WM's and TRU above were still being stocked when I left. So they may have everything by the time you get there. Oh, and below is todays toy haul

Wow...impressive haul Sith!!! :APPLAUSE:

I'm glad to see that some stores have Shockwave in stock, I was worried about not seeing him for a while. The only figures I'm really interested in are Leader Ironhide, Leader Sentinel Prime, Powerglide, Shockwave, and that new Voyager helicopter dude.

Now...I just have to sneak all those figures past my wife... :-?

Mon May 16, 2011 2:57 pm

Good luck! I took that pic and I've already got them hidden away LOL.

Nice haul, thanks for the heads up too, I will try and swing by the harahan WM after praise team practice to pick up the wreckers.

Mon May 16, 2011 7:24 pm

Went to the Chalmette Walmart and they had a ton of the Voyagers (even the wave 2's), but other than those, not much to report.

Went to TRU and they had a ton of the HA Scout figures, a Leader BB, and a couple of deluxes.

Walmart of Vets had nothing, Target on Vets had nothing (though Target was stocking up at the moment).

Lastly, Walmart in Elmwood had a bunch of DOTM stuff from the scouts, smaller HA figures, legends, voyagers (no wave 2's though), deluxes, and even Leaders. Hate to report that I nabbed the last Sentinel Prime though.

All in all, I'm surprised that I didn't find Powerglide, but I got everything else I wanted. The smaller HA figures are pretty awesome.
