I have been searching for MP Starscream since October and in the three Wal-Marts near that I visit daily, there was nothing to be found but last night after getting a tip from a member here in Saint Louis, I went out searching. Although the tip I got for the current Wal-Mart did not have him on the way back home taken a different route I decided to stop by a Wal-Mart outside my little normal area...

(Little did i know what was to be expected, thinking all hope is lost since the member tip didn't pan out)

So *going into this store with little hope...

At first I was looking at the first 8 feet on the Transformer aisle and saw nothing, thinking to myself another disappointment but I then looked a little to my left at the next 8 foot section and long behold MPSS FEST! I was like "Sweet HELL YEAH, now where's a damn cart!"

Nice find! Which WM was it? Keep an eye out for a Concept Bumblebee for me, too!

It was the Manchester Wal-Mart just days before BF.
I got two more from there as well.

Had one more BH Starscream and Bulkhead, and a ton of BH Bumblebee, Soundwave, and Wheeljacks. Worth a look indeed. Also still a few MP Thundercrakers left at Toys r Us by Mid Rivers Mall.

Took a long break from collection Transformers, and sold a lot of my collection. I am back now and on the hunt. Seeing if anyone else is out there in Missouri and maybe we can make the forum good for once. Currently on the lookout for Titans Return Tripticon, and I have seem the repaint of Cybertron (Primus) at the Toys r Us in Sunset Hills, and South county Mall. Hope to hear from someone.

I live in mid Missouri so don't get over to the metro area often but do know that South City TRU had multiple Trypticons as of yesterday.

I almost saw this post too late, but got the last one at the TRU luckily. They had a ton of the new MP-10 yesterday as well. Do you live kinda close to Columbia? I was out there for work earlier this week and noticed that TRU didn't have much, but don't really know how well their stock usually is.

Fri Jul 28, 2017 5:26 pm

I'm in Columbia, yes. TRU stocks pretty infrequently, though they did have a ton of the new Titan masters today. Target here is pretty decent, they had Octone and Blitzwing weeks ago. They just got leader megs and Optimus in plus the new cybertron cube ones. I'm mainly looking for wave 5 stuff now so probably gonna be a bit.

News Credits: 1 · Tue Aug 01, 2017 11:35 am

I am looking for those as well. I got back into collecting a little bit ago, and now looking to catch up on the titans return line. I like to keep my stuff in box though, and boy do those deluxe boxes bend up real bad. But otherwise I say check out your local Walmart as well. The ones around me have titans masters for as low as 2,50 I saw yesterday. Otherwise newest I have seen recently was leader sky shadow at a target in o'fallon MO. Very nice figure.

I am from STL, so no sure don't. But what are you looking for? I'm trying to unload some of my figures around that time and I can check if I have them. I have loose and new, so let me know.

I'm pretty much looking for anything at this point. I missed out on a lot of great figures and now I'm just trying to pick up whatever cool figures I can get.

I really appreciate the offer, but I'd rather purchase my figs from retail stores. That way, I could return it if I run into any major QC issues.

Just found MPM-04 Optimus Prime out in the Mid Rivers Mall Toys R Us. Only had 1, but I assume they will start showing up at other locations in MO soon so keep an eye out if you on the hunt for it! Also, had about 10 MP-10 Optimus Prime as well.

Wed Apr 04, 2018 5:28 pm

Brentwood (near St. Louis) Target has Blackwing, Rippersnapper, and Evolution Rodimus.

News Credits: 3 · Tue Dec 24, 2019 1:09 pm

Anyone looking for Studio Series 53 (Mixmaster) and 54 (Megatron, a Walmart in Branson (Branson Hills PKWY) had one of each. In addition, they had Siege Spinister and Crosshairs.

Walmart in Nixa had SS 54 as well.

While I usually post stuff under “Virginia” where I am stationed, I am home on leave here in Southern Missouri, thought I would add something here while I am home.

Happy Hunting,
