Georgia Transformers sightings
Just picked mine up at the SuperCenter on Gresham Road in Atlanta. Only two more out on the shelf. Thanks to everyone for the heads up that he had arrived. I checked Howell Mill last night with no luck and probably would have taken a few days off if I hadn't heard he was appearing at other stores!

I went to 2 close wallys, 1 being a confirmed location. they both had ZERO MP SSs. in fact the TF area was mostly empty pegs!!! At the confirmed wally I tried to get help, it was frustrating. no one was willing to help. "if it ain't on the shelf, we don't have it" was the typical response.
oh well I left & called a friend who picked me up 2 from another confirmed location. so now I am happy.

Chastain Meadows Wal-Mart still has a good supply of MP SS and they also restocked their deluxes. It was mostly 2nd wave stuff, Concept BB, Dropkick and Dreadwing. They also apparently found a case of Classics. there were 2 Cliffjumpers, a Mirage and a Ramjet. Also 2 Primes.
Barrett TRU had an endcap full of Cybertron GF Prime and Metroplex, I guess to get ready for that sale someone posted about in the toy forum. TRU had an even bigger stock of deluxes, multiples of every figure including both BBs. Also 1 each of Thundercracker and Voy. Megatron,

Interesting find at the Barrett Pkwy TRU today:
A 1/64 scale diecast concept Camaro with the Bumblebee paint scheme.
I posted a pic of the car in the packaging over in the toy haul thread.
They had 4 more if anyone else is interested.

Nothing but movie figures in the Walmart and Target in Brunswick. Mostly the "fast action battlers", but I did pick up Final Battle Jazz, Voyager Prime, and '76 Camero Bumblebee. I'm still looking for Voyager Ironhide and Ratchet. It is incredibly hard to find anything TF in this redneck ass town. The KB Toys in the mall had absolutely NOTHING, not one single piece of TF merchandise

Unbelievably there are still 5 or 6 Mp Starscreams at the wal Mart in Roswell on Mansell. I have been watching these for the last several weeks. It seems as though they are going unnoticed because they are not with the other TF's though they are directly across the aisle from them on the bottom shelf almost covered up by other toys. I got mine at another store so if anyone needs one this may be your last chance.

I haven't seen any in about a month, but I really haven't been out looking as much.

There are still 6 MP Starcscreams at the Wal MArt in Roswell, i just went by there tonight. They are not hidden, just go to the tfs, face them, then look directly behind you on the bottom shelf. There are also 3 on the shelf at the Windward Pkway wal mart as of about 6 pm 12-07-07.
I haven't seen many deluxes except for Arcee, Payload, and Dreadwing.
Also Roswell Wal MArt had a full stock of the Movie Robot heroes including the latest wave with Bonecrusher, Starscream, Ironhide, Proto Jazz, Scorponok, New movie Prime, Bumblebee with battle armor.
I got one set, there were more, though I may have gotten the LAst packs with Proto Jazz and Brawl, Prime and Scorponok.

My Brother stopped by TRU in Alpharetta this morning and told me they wwere fully stocked on Deluxe movie figs, Bumblebees, Barricades, and I guess all the others. I haven't been there myself so I don't really know what else they had, but if you need any deluxe figs I'd call ahead or get there asap.

Re: ***GEORGIA SIGHTINGS***
i have been to just about every toys r us in the metro atlanta area and i have seen nothing. i have been collecting a few starwars figures to hold me over until they start putting the new transformers stuff out. and now i cant even find any good starwars figures now, its like hasbro is taking a breather on all there toys. but on the bright side i did pick up the final battle pack with the movie correct long arm and legless bumblebee, its pretty cool. they had the barricade one but i just couldnt justify spending another 20 bucks for another barricade and some little figurines. i already have 3 in the house and one is waiting to be repainted. trust me as soon as i see the allspark line i will post it.

Chastain Meadows Wal-Mart had 1 of the Longarm/Legless Bumblebee screen sets this morning. The price was $19.76. I was going to get it and cancel my $25 pre-order from BBTS but the box was ripped.
They didn't have much left. There was also and Unleashed Prime and 2 of the Downshift/Cannonball(?) Universe sets from Black Friday.
Barrett Pkwy Target only had 1 deluxe Scorponok and the Prime/Bumblebee keychains.
