I see we Oklahoma Transfans have been slacking so I'm here to get the ball rolling.

This week I spotted and picked up...
Animated Series:
Shadowblade Megatron
Target Shockwave Vs Bumblebee
Target Sunstorm Vs Ratchet
Legends Animated Prowl, Optimus Prime, and Bumblebee.

I also spotted, but did not obtain...
Animated Series:
Samurai Prowl
Waspinator
Activators Patrol Bumblebee.

That's all for now.

ROTF toys at ToysRUs in Tulsa. Leader Optimus and Megatron. Megs is one worth getting. I saw an entire wall at the front of the store dedicated to TFs. Wheelie, BlueStreak, Bumblebee, Ironhide, Biplane dude, Soundwave, and tons more including BB's helmet. Animated voyagers also restocked, but not on sale.

I had started an Oklahoma sighting thread here before the server crash and it had practically no traffic, but since you've started a new one I will try to post my findings here as well. I'm in Chickahsa and frequent Norman and OKC. I normally use the TFW2005 Oklahoma sightings board it has much more activity. I post there as OptimusPrimeMinister.

Picked up MP Skywarp at the Walmart off of Sante Fe and I-240 in OKC. They still had plenty left although you can tell from the shelf size that they started with a lot more. Looked like a good 15-20 left though.

Its been a couple weeks now but I think it was $60. Whatever the standard price is. They had quite a few left but as we get closer to Christmas, I'm sure numbers are starting to run low. I've been broken since then so I haven't been back to Walmart since.


**EDIT** Yep definitly still a bunch there. I stopped into the same walmart today to grab something for my turkey fryer and there was at least 20 MP Skywarps left. $60 price tag.

Still have not seen MP Skywarp at my WalMart.
I did go to TRU today and they had a few more TFA Roadbuster Ultra Magnus. I also saw Electrostatic Soundwave with Ratbat and Freeway Jazz.
The 25th anniversary Perceptor was also there.

Saw a bunch of Masterpiece Skywarps still remaining at the same Walmart just yesterday. Also Recon Ironhide and Bludgeon at TRU by the Crossroads mall on I-240. 25th Ann Perceptor was also there. They also had a bunch of the "Meeting at the Nemesis" 3-pack with Voyager Megs, Voyager Fallen and the much nicer re-paint of Deluxe Soundwave. Every time I go there I would like to pick up that 3-pack but never have an extra 50 bucks.

Well, I am pretty sure those MP Skywarps should be reduced soon. There are 15-20 at the 2 Walmarts I go to. However, I did see the Supreme Class Optimus for $20 and the Leader Class Shadow Blade Megatron for $20 also. There are a ton of Transformers on the shelves at each of my Walmarts. Devastator will probably be getting reduced soon also. I still see HA Skids and Bumblebee.

As of this afternoon the TRU in Norman had four Arcees and five Ratchets. I've already got my set, I was there looking for HA Mudflap, no luck. Has anyone seen HA Mudflap? Is everyone still alive.......................(crickets chirping)

No Mudflaps, a bunch of HA Skids though. I also found what maybe the last MP Skywarp in the Metro at the walmart at I-40 and Macarther blvd. It was Rolled back to $30. That really steams my clams, man. I missed out on MP Starscream when he came out because the price was steep and I wanted to see if it would come down. It may have come down but I never saw it after that. So I was determined to not let this episode happen again so when Skywarp came out and rushed out and got one. Of course now I see them at every walmart for a reduced price. :BANG_HEAD: That woulod make perfect sense.

Also a bunch of the nest line. They were rolled back to $10.20. Dirge and Lockdown really struck my fancy but I passed anyway. A couple HA Skids and Bumblebees and some voyager primes, grindors, longhauls.

I live in Stillwater and I don't get to go to OKC or Tulsa much. But as for here:
Walmart(one of two-I never go to the other one) hasn't had much in the way of new stock for 6 months.

The only new stock they did have was a small amount of the RotF Deluxe Rachets and Lockdowns, which all the lockdown were bought up within a week and they haven't restocked in over a month. Their shelves are virtually bare with the only figures being Rpms, Deluxe Rachets,Tuner Mudflaps,Gears, and voyager Screamers and Stratospheres... They have the reset papers up, but none of the managers I've talked to know when their getting anything.

I sometimes feel like mines the lamest walmart in the state...

Big jackpot at the TRU off of Main St. in Norman. The ENTIRE line of wave 1 of the Gen line was there. I did take the last Drift as well as a Thrust. Leader Starscream was there also, a few Power Core Combiners, the "Hook" repaint of Leader Prime, Battle Blades Bumblebee, even about 6 Cybertron mode Ratchets. Also a few MP Grimlocks, of which I took 1 of them. Lots of great figures present.

The Walmart here in Stillwater finally got some new stuff.

HftD Seaspray, and the new scouts to name a few.
Plenty of PCC Searchlight, Smolder, Huffer.
Several 5 packs, Double clutch, Bombshock, and Skyburst.
Wave one of the Generations line was there as well but already almost sold out.

Also saw at least one Leader Starscream.

This is a resource we really need to improve upon. Surely there are more Okies on here than this.

Perhaps the terrible stock in local stores lately is keeping things quiet.

Bought DOTM wave 1 Deluxes at TRU Crossroads this morning. They rang up but the cashier said she couldn't sell them to me because they were out too early. I talked her into selling them though.

You guys keep refering to Crossroads TRU. If you mean the TRU by the crossroads mall at the I-240-I-35 intersection, I was just there two days ago and no Rodimus were stocked. Figures, I can't afford now. I'm going to go mope for a bit.

I also saw 4 Reveal the Shield Jazz figures at the Walgreens at NW23rd and Meridian. There are 3 left.

I did mean the TRU near Crossroads mall.

OMG, another OK collector! I'm currently looking for HA Leadfoot, Cyberverse Guzzle, and the Cyberverse Shockwave set. Haven't really seen anything noteworthy lately.

The Target in Moore has a ton of recently released toys. I'll be there on Saturday and I'll check for the items you've listed. I mostly collect Classics/Universe and Animated.

Has anyone see any, i mean, any of the Reveal the Shield Legends class in Oklahoma at all? I had hope to seem them at Toy R US, but both of them here in Tulsa seem keep legends class as peg warmers in this area.

I have been expecting them to show up at Big Lots but to no avail.

Now that masterpiece soundwave and acid storm are out, im going to try and co tribute to this thread. Im in the stillwater area so im not near a TRU but can definately do calls and post when i drive to okc or tulsa.

I called both stores in tulsa and they did not have stock of either and did not plan on getting stock. The gentleman informed me that they usually dont get the mp figures at the tulsa stores but gets several calls for them. Seems kinda lame but i guess thats distribution for you.
