The Plan:

From my mom's travel agency(1), I'll walk to Kay Bee toys(2). The never really have anything good transformer-wise, but it's worth a try. After that I'll head over to Sears(3) to investigate rumors that they carry some Tfs. Then comes Bealls (4), a good place for knockoffs and leftovers. I will then cross the entire mall (approx. 600 ft) and exit the building through JC Penny's. After crossing a road I will end up at Toys "R" Us(5), and then Target(6) after some more walking. After browsing the toy section there I will return to the mall, get a drink(7), and go over to Walden Books(8) before retiring back to mom's store. I don't have much money, so if I find something at one store that I may consider buying, I'll still continue on my journey to see if there is anything better.

Wish me luck.

Glad to see you have things planned out, I was thinking of a plan for my hunting too but my locations are very spread out unfortunately. :cry:

Well, good luck on your hunts though.

Meh, I can always just swipe a corona out of my mom's fridge...

I shall report back upon my return to home base. The travel agency has many computers.

Just one thing though... please, don't compare me to Kevin. :-(

I hate him.

I've got plenty of places in my general area for mainline stuff like movie toys, Cybertron, Alternators etc... However, I have no source for Japanese TFs like Masterpiece. I have three Wal*Marts, two Targets, two Toys "R" Us stores, two malls with various stores, and a whole lot of other places I can recall at the moment. However, we don't have anything like Forbidden Planet. :-(

Love the map diagram. Thanks for giving me a much-needed laugh. :lol:

I love it! Looks like a war plan. I do the same thing. :lol:

Classic!

ssshhh...keep your strategic map! someone might be near your area and will prolly use your route to undermine your TF hunting endeavours (maybe even use it to scalp during resets?) LOL, i need to sleep. :grin:

so, any news on your haul today?

I still haven't left for the mall yet... I'm waiting for my ride. However, if the bastard doesn't show up soon then I'll just call grandma, who'd be more than happy to drive me there.

lol, second that, this is hilarious!

Man, I love the diagram, so awesome. :lol:

I also stick to a route, but it's considerably smaller:

1)Infiltrate the back of the mall through Zellers... wing by their paltry selection.
2)Across the basement to TRU.
3)Upstairs to Ages Three and Up for the delicacies.
4)If still haven't found my mark, continue to Sears.
5)The Bay as a last resort.
