Did you find the DOTM toys at a regular or Super Walmart store on may 16?

No...I found them on May 15th. Before that, a few were around on May 13th.

was it at a regular or super walmart store.

Regular walmart stores don't have a deli department,no produce & their grocery section is much smaller.

No need for this.

I also went to a Kmart and they had nothing.. Not even Generations.. All of their pegs were completely bare.

My local Kmart has also completely gotten rid of their Transformers section.

Supercenter. However when I went to return a broken Starscream I stopped at a regular one, and they had the exact same things, except they didn't have wave 2 like the Supercenter did.

Super Walmart me had new stuff tonight.

I would say they had the first wave. Deluxe (whatever they are called now) Roadbuster, Starscream, black SUV guy, Bumblebee, Rachet, Ironhide. Voyager Ironhide, Prime, and Megatron. They had two giant Bumblebees and one Sentinel Prime so I guess they had a big Prime or Shockwave that someone already snagged. They also had a bunch of little kiddie figures and a black Human Alliance Bumble Bee that looked pretty crappy.

The Deluxes were only $10 bucks which is lower than the Generations and Reveal the Shield were.

Didnt end up getting any though. Gonna compare with TRU, Target and Kmart have first. Figure the shelves will be full for a while.

The only thing wrong with his looks really is the red they chose. Next to ROTF Optimus, he might as well be pink. A stronger, more masculine red would have changed the game with him.

It's the demanding panel aligning that I'm not sure I like.

Went back today and they had a lot of stock out. Had one Leader Sentinel. There's no "might as well be" about it...that's PINK. The colour on the Back of the box is way better. Are there ANY Sentinel figures worth the money?

Also, did Megs come out in the first wave? I saw some of the smaller ones, but I'm looking for the Leader size, I think.

It's the lighting playing tricks on your eyes. Sentinel is not pink. Slightly magenta, but not pink. More red than he appears in store.

Also, Megatron did come out in the first wave, as a Voyager. As far as we know, there are no Leader Class Decepticon figures planned for this line. So, if you want him and Shockwave, Voyager or Commander (Scout) are your only options.

In Raleigh, NC, it was the Walmarts that got most of my DOTM purchases because they actually had stock out *ON* release day in the morning hours (like around 6 a.m.) and two Walmarts actually put stuff out on Saturday and Sunday. Target didn't have anything out until late afternoon on Monday because they were so busy setting up for Cars 2 toys But that's fine, because Walmart's prices for deluxes and voyagers were actually a better deal compare to what Target was charging.

As I said, Walmart got most of my DOTM purchases (4 deluxes and 2 voyagers and one cyberverse commander), but K-Mart got my one leader class purchase since they were priced at $39.99 compared to Walmart's $42.99 and Target's $44.99.
