I saw ultimate Optimus at Mooresville SuperTarget today for 79.99. They had no sign of the deluxe exclusives though.

Saw the following at Target Midtown in Charlotte: Ultimate Optimus Prime, DOTM Arcee, Voyager Sentinel, a few Autobot Arks, Voyager Ratchet and Voyager Starscream. Still looking for a SpaceCase but haven't found any so far.

If you are looking for older transformers (anything but DOTM) check out Rebel Base Comics & Toys in Charlotte, NC. I was there the other day and they had Transformers from G1, RID, BW, Armada, Universe, TF (2007), basically anything. Even had a MSIB G1 Megatron.

Did anyone near greensboro ever see lugnuts or grapples?

by **Dethmoth** » Sun Aug 14, 2011 6:06 pm

I found two Grappels at ROSS and Ollie's in Hickory. The only two I ever saw. I found Lugnut in Concord at ROSS, I have seen Lugnut in Mooresville at TJ Maxx though.

Thanks! I didn't know TJ Maxx and Ross had transformers. Learn something new everyday.

If you look back several pages, you'll find one of my sightings for TJ Maxx. If you're looking for RTS figures there however, you're better off paying extra and ordering them online. >:oP

Happened to be at Target today, and I spotted a couple rare Generations figures; Warpath and Wheeljack! I wanted to get both, but I only had enough to get one, so I got Warpath, since he seems to have an absence in North Carolina. :lol:

I'm excited to move but bummed that I'm leaving my buddies in DE/PA behind.

Hopefully you all are the social types and we can arrange a gathering or dinner some time.

Well, you know me; I'm probably the chattiest of 'em all in this thread.

And I'm sure your buddies will find a way to contact you some way some how. 8-}

For those of you who are into PCC's I saw the dinosaur one and contructicon one at Ross and T.J. Maxx today in Concord. So check those places if you're looking for them.

Found 4 MP Rodimii at the Pineville, NC Toys R Us! We snatched 'em all up. One for me, and the other three for buds. Let me know if you'd like me to hunt some down for you.

I found a few RTS Battle in space packs at toysrus in Asheville Brevard road did not get any i want to see more video reviews for it before i buy it :-?

by **Dethmoth** » Fri Oct 14, 2011 5:11 pm

Air Raid, Dark Steel, and Armor Topspin sighted at Hickory Target. One of each, and I only left Topspin. TRU in Hickory had Rage over Cybertron sets and MP Rodimus. Conover Kmart had Guzzle, Dark Sentinel Prime yesterday. Ollie's in Hickory had four! Solar Storm Grappels, couple Lugnuts, and oodles of deep dive. I left them all.

I FINALLY found the RtS legends class figures at TJ Maxx. I also spotted a few Cannon Force Ironhides at TRU if you're into that sort of thing.

I found the last of the Generation figures finally. Posted this way after filling out a problem report on the address. The new address for the Wal-Mart Super Center is 935 Blowing Rock Blvd, Lenoir, NC 28645. They only had one each of Sky Shadow and Junkheap. Yes, I bought both of them. To find them here is like finding gold since it takes a while to get stuff in. They also had leader class movie Ironhide, which is hard to come by. Only seen him twice, but I couldn't afford him, so he is still there just in case you need him. Maybe this gives you guys some hope that we will get more of these figures here.

Lexington's Wal-Mart SuperCenter seems to have gone dry. I've been waiting for them to start resetting the Toy Department modular, but as of Friday, 27 January 2012, there's been no change. They've even started filling the empty DOTM pegs with those fighting robot figures from that lame fighting robot movie with Hugh Jackman.

The few pegs for their Generations figures still have the same figures on them they've had for a few months, several Scourge figures (in case you want to build up your Sweeps) and a couple of Kup figures. That's it. No sign of Junkheap or Sky Shadow.

Thomasville's Wal-Mart SuperCenter has made some changes to their Toy Department modular and I was able to find two DOTM figures I didn't have yet, Specialist Ratchet and Cyberfire Bumblebee (which I am totally disappointed in for the poor paint quality). I also acquired Legion Soundwave (sorry, it was the only one) and Legion Flak.

The week after Christmas, I made a special (special because it's further than I usually travel now due to gas being so expensive) trip to High Point and visited Ross, TJ Maxx, Target, and Wal-Mart SuperCenter. Aside from Target having more than enough of HA Leadfoot (which surprisingly I didn't purchase), the trip was a total bust. It might be on Clearance by now, so I might be due for another trip.

As for Ross and TJ Maxx, I've never found any of the RTS figures at either store and I'm still needing Scout Class Chopsaw and Windcharger and Legends Class Prowl and Trailcutter to complete that line.

However, I did get a great deal on the STAR WARS THE CLONE WARS REPUBLIC ATTACK SHUTTLE Vehicle as it was 50% off it's original price of $79.97 at the Wal-Mart SuperCenter in High Point. So I guess the trip to High Point wasn't a total waste of time and gas.

I guess it's for the best right now that I haven't found much of anything lately as I recently paid Robot Kingdom for TFC's Neckbreaker (Not-Bonecrusher) and Mad Blender (Not-Mix Master) and both are en route, so money's tight to begin with.

Picked up Generations Wheeljack today over at one of the Wal*Marts here in Wilmington. I prefer this version rather than Tracks, which is weird because I consider Tracks one of my favorites considering the fact I picked him up while I was touring Camp Lejeune. I picked up the last one, so don't get disappointed when you browse over there and don't see him.

Hey guys, new to the forum, long time TF fan. I was at the New Bern Target on Thursday and picked up the Transformers Prime "Cyberverse" Arcee and Cliffjumper. These are the miniature transformers, Legion Class. I love these minis! Anyway, they only had one each of those, which I bought. There was also a Ratchet and Vehicon, I didn't like those guys as much so left them there. So it wasn't much, but at least we're finally getting Prime figures! Yay!

I looked to add these to the toy sightings area, but couldn't find this category. Are they not appearing anywhere else?

TRU in Concord, NC has five PRID Voyager Optimus, 3 PRID Bumblebee, 2 Wheeljack, 1 Cliffjumper, and all of the Botshots.

TRU in Pineville, NC only had a couple Bumblebees. They did have a First Edition Bumblebee Blaster toy.

I did not pick up any of those as they didn't look that great to me. If anyone has any First Editions, I have a LOT of good stuff to trade.

Small world, I was there today myself. I didn't buy anything though, the bugling of the FE figures combined with absurd prices has quickly turned me off this line.
