Got my dropkick yesterday from Target in Redondo Beach, near Del Amo Plaza. I think there was one left.

Went back to the Walmart in La Habra about 3:30 (that was sold out of Barricades in the morning) and there was a barricade sitting on top of some other toys to the left of the transformers section, That's weird, it wasn't there this morning, any way finally got a barricade !

Walmart in Duarte had (as of last night at 10 pm):

3 x Barricade
4 x Jazz
1 x Rescue Ratchet

Tons of Brawl, Wreckage, Bonecrusher, Swindle, the deluxe jet (forgot his name).

I also found a cybertron Optimus Primal, so they are clearing up their inventory.

Yeah I was there around the same time last night. I picked up two Barricades, a Bonecrusher, a movie replica Bumblebee, and an alternator Skids that I found in the clearance section for $15. They have been trying to get rid of those optimus primal for weeks. I bought one a month ago for $7. It was nice to finally see the shelves fully stocked.

at the Toys R Us in Thousand Oaks, I picked up a Draedwing deluxe. They also had a bunch of Voyagers and a grip of Optimus Unleashed along with the usual weird lil gadget TFs like the watch and what not. Other than that, still lookin' pretty blown out. I see Arcee from time to time (I got her, she's friggin' rad), but Concept BB is hard to come by as of yet (I did acquire him courtesy of my buddy Kurt being on the lookout whilst he was browsing for TFs. Thanks Kurt!)

I bought an alternator Skids yesterday at Wal-Mart. It was the only one and was in the clearance section. They are gone pretty much, every once in awhile you might find a Skids, Ricochet, or a Rollbar but that is pretty much it. You can pick them up at Frank and Sons but they are going to make you pay big bucks for them.

Couple weeks ago at Industry Frys Electronics, toys section still has tons of $25 Alternators (Skids, Ricochet, Rollbar & Sunstreaker).

Besides at Frys last place I saw Alternators (same 4 figures as above) was at Walmart's clearance as well, now all gone. Nada, Kapoof!

Yeah, all the Alts in my local Walmarts have disappeared, but Fry's still has stacks and stacks of them.

You can head there if you want, but they're also $25 there.

Oh, and I checked another Walmart, this one closer to my school, and it's pretty much in the same situation as my local ones: all Wave 1 Deluxes, a TON of Wreckages and Barricades, one poorly hidden Dreadwing.

After you entered the store, turn left, there will be 2 sections with aisles. The first section you will find power strips, desk lamps, etc. Within one of these aisles there's one aisle dedicated for toys. Further down to 2nd section is the one with lan/wifi networking, ext. HD storage cases, electrical components like connectors/capacitors, etc. Further down you'll hit their wall displaying memories/USB drives etc.

Friday is a good day to go to Frys!

Sherman Way TRU in the San Fernando Valley got a shipment of wave 1 deluxes, but were all gone in the first 2 minutes of opening hours.


How?

There's a store called KITTY WORLD right next door to them. REAL close! And what they do, is they buy out ALL the Transformers from TRU next door and tack on an extra 7-10 dollars onto the toys.

FREAKIN' KITTY WORLD. DON'T BUY FROM THOSE LOSERS!

I was looking on the Seibertron news and one of the new topics for today was that the Death Star Darth Vader transformers figure was out. The Wal-Mart in Duarte had this figure the whole week. There has only been one of these the whole week in the same place. It is on the transformers / star wars section and is on the very top shelf where they put their over stock. The figure was there yesterday and in the same place. I’m not into the Star wars transformers so I past.

Like Mr. Bond007's post in regular toy's thread, Alhambra COSTCO also has Ultimate Bumblebee in circular acetate packaging with a bonus 3" titanium bumblebee figure, for $69.99 + tax.

As of 5pm PST time, there's less than 1/2 pallet of those left.

Cheers!
