This weekend I will have to check out the stores here in Roch. I hope I don't see a bunch of stuff and try to buy it all. I did that for the first movie line, and I really don't need to be doing that all over again.

I will be ok as soon as I get to grab Jetfire. I have bought enough of this line. I like quite a few figures, but I can't go all out like i did for the first movie.

I'm in an identical situation.

But I'll get him first!

If you get a Mixmaster before me, I am going to eat you.
I am going crazy that I cant find him. I went to botcon for the whole purpose of buying him!But they sold out of him with in minutes on Friday. Grrrr.... I hate how slow things come him in Rochester. :sad:

Fri Jun 19, 2009 2:34 pm

Hahaha. Don't worry about Mixmaster too much. He isn't on my list of "must haves" yet. If I see him before you I might actually try to hide him and I will message you.

Now Jetfire is a different story! I can't wait for that sucker. As well as Long Haul. Those are the big two for me at this point. We might have to scrap over those! :wink:

Hey, just to let you know, there were a couple of Animated Shockwaves at Wal-Mart North about 20 minutes ago. So if anyone missed him, there's a couple there.

Don't worry. I can hold off on Long Haul too. Jetfire is the big one.

If you're still looking for Mixmaster, I know they put a couple of them out at the Target in Hopkins last night...Jetfire is still eluding me, and I would really like to pick up a Stratosphere...he's the Voyager sized cargo plane with canoe feet right?
Lets see...I've nabbed Soundwave, Ravage, Skids, Mudflap, Sideways, Breakaway, Rampage, Sideswipe, The Fallen, and the Superion combiner thingy...a couple of good figs in there, but most are horrible.

I saw Mixmaster, Stratosphere, and Voyager Megs at W. St. Paul Walmart last night along with all the other voyagers. Passed on all. Still waiting to find a HA Bumblebee or any other HA fig for that matter.

Just pickup a mix-master!!! The black/white with the Decepticon logos on the mixer is pretty cool. But was just wondering if this version along with the other 5 actually combine or is there a special version that combines??? just wondering so I can decide if I want to get all 6 or just wait for the set. LMK if u know

Wed Jun 24, 2009 11:42 am

There are two versions: the Constructicons that transformer into individual bots, and some vehicles that merge to form Devastator.

Most of the smaller cities farther north here are, abiet almost painfully slowly, starting to shelve the later waves. Here's what I've seen the last week while I've been out.

Bemidji, MN - Wal-Mart
An entire display of Skywarp and Ramjet repaints of Movie1 Starscream.
1st and 2nd waves of Fast Action Battlers
1st Wave of Scout class.
1st Wave Deluxes plus Chromia, Mudflap, Skids
1st Wave Voyagers plus Megatron, Fallen

- Target -
1st Wave Deluxes plus Chromia, Mudflap
No sign of the gestalt set yet...

Thief River Falls, MN - Wal-Mart
JUST started shelved the next waves. This place is annoying that they rarely put anything out until there's actually open pegs, so they're really slow sometimes. :p
Saw flocks of Wheelies, Chromias, a few Mudflaps, the 'new' Barricade, and several Scalpels in the Scout section.
There was one Ravage on the pegs, -one-. I took him already. Maybe they stocked more by then.

Grand Forks - Yeah I know this is in North Dakota, but a lot of the people that live up here go there often to shop, so I thought I'd make note of it.
I only visited Wal-Mart due to the weather, but they had a majority of Waves 1 and 2 and a smattering of Voyagers. There were several Voyager Megatrons, Fallens and Mixmasters mixed amongst the Ironhides and Demolishers.

Sat Jun 27, 2009 12:28 pm

Anyone seen any Human Alliance Bumblebees yet???

It's the last figure on my list....

Sat Jun 27, 2009 3:20 pm

I haven't seen anything lately. No HA BB that I have heard about. Haven't been to any stores for over a week though.

Sat Jun 27, 2009 8:54 pm

Not much to report in the SW suburbs of MPLS/STP. Tons of wave 1, a few seeker repaints at Wal-Mart in Shakopee. No HABB, Gestalts, Jetfire, etc....

It sounds like about the only places they're really showing up so far is K-Mart and Toys R Us, and at K-Mart they're going for $35+ tax so you may as well just save the hassle of hunting and order off HasbroToyShop.com at that price...where last I saw they were in stock.

Mon Jun 29, 2009 3:17 pm

Picked up a Sideswipe today and stop by the kmart in maplewood across from the mall just to look around, they didn't really have much but after looking around for a bit I was able to pickup the only HA Bumblebee!!! :grin:

Sorry it was the only one they had.

Still looking for a Jetfire.
