That is a awesome deal. I am going to go and check out the Lynnwood Fred Myer tomarrow and see if they have them.

Last night Kirkland/Totem Lake fred Meyers had:

Jazz x1
FB Jazz x2
Barricade x2
Arcee x3
Longarm x1

If anyone even still needs those...

Woodinville Target is still very empty. Their stock has been spotty at best.

Tukwila Southcenter TRU had 5 Ultimate Bumblebees, 3 War Within Optimus and WW Megatron (TRU exclusive pack), 3 Leader Brawls, 3 Blackout/Scorponok 2packs, Cybertron Primus, and a butt-load of Real Gear.

Puyallup Walmart had Early Voyagers: Ironhide, Ratchet (Green), Starscream, and Blackout, so they are out there if anyone is missing them.

by **Elvaan** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 11:59 pm

If I wasn't so directionally challenged, I'd drive out to the Puyallup Wal-Mart, and pick up a much needed Ironhide...

by **Cyberjet #7** » Wed Nov 07, 2007 3:53 pm

Ebay is showing a number of MP Starscreams coming out of California - he's getting closer...

As for Ironhide and other early Voayger figs - since Hasbro is releasing all the new waves next year I'm sure we'll see gops of old stuff for the holiday season.

by **BB.206** » Wed Nov 07, 2007 3:55 pm

I'm hoping he'll show up this weekend.

by **Cyberjet #7** » Wed Nov 07, 2007 5:33 pm

I'll probably not get a chance to look this weekend, but will definantly check next weekend.

When I do find MP Starscream, I'll send some PMs to some members of this forum rather than post it here on the board. I would think it would be a good idea to help avoid giving out info to scalpers.

by **BB.206** » Wed Nov 07, 2007 6:33 pm

^Sounds good. I'll do the same.

News Credits: 5 · by **Barrelass** » Wed Nov 07, 2007 10:39 pm

^same here, although I doubt a lot of you will want to drive down to Puyallup for him, but if I do find them, I will find a place to stash them, unfortunately the budget will barely allow me to buy one for myself.

Greetings from the Canadian Border. Work has been running long so I have not had a chance to hunt for MP Starscream or anything else up here. Thursday evening should be less busy for me and I plan on making stops on my way back down on Friday. If I find an MP SS I may be able to pick 1 or 2 up and discreetly PM folks with the info like the rest of you are planning to do.

Good luck to all those out there hunting and hopefully I can post again friday with some good news...

yeah if I find some I will send some pm's out. I am looking for mp ss as well.

add me to the PM list, especially if you find Starscream in the Seattle-Tacoma area! what are the odds we'll get a US release of Skywarp?

by **BB.206** » Thu Nov 08, 2007 3:11 pm

I doubt Skywarp will be released in the US, but I'm not Hasbro so who knows.

by **Cyberjet #7** » Fri Nov 09, 2007 10:45 am

MP SS is still floating around the CA area on Ebay. There was one report on another TF site that a Walmart in the south (Renton) may have gotten him - but they're not 100% on that.

On a side note, is anyone hitting TRU today or tomorrow for their big sale? Transformers will not be involved but it may be worth a look since they may buff up the rest of the non-sale items too. Apparently, the sale starts tonight at 5pm and they will also open tomorrow at 8am.

Belleuve TRU may be a bust, since last night they had nothing at all of note. No deluxes, no voyagers - some Desert Attack 2-pks.

by **BB.206** » Fri Nov 09, 2007 11:13 am

^I might drop by, but I'm not sure which one I'm going to.

by **skyblast** » Sat Nov 10, 2007 2:36 am

Here we go guys, pdxis350 from the Oregon thread just picked up MP Starscream at his local walmart. We should be drowning in them very soon if not now!!

The only thing of interest that I found up north was Ultimate Bumblebee marked down 30% at the Bellis-Fair Target.
That makes it $55.88. Aside from that, just a whole lot of the same old stuff all the way down the I-5 corridor. I'll be heading back up Monday morning for a 1 day shot and plan on checking out the Bellingham and Mt.Vernon Wal-Marts on the way back down. Bellinghams Wal-Mart is kind of tucked back out of the way and Mt. Vernons is never as swampped (toy collector wise) as the ones down here so I'm hoping to have some luck finding MP Starscream. We'll see...

Was that the Ultimate BB with the bonus pack attached ..deluxe scorponok and brawl? :-?

if so very tempting. Actually I'll bet you could just take the ad or a cell phone pic from Target to walmart and I'll bet they'll price match?

News Credits: 1 · by **T-Macksimus** » Sat Nov 10, 2007 3:52 pm

Unfortunately, that was just the standard, no frills or extras Ultimate BB. I may still snag one when I head back up Monday but that is going to depend on the availability of Starscreams at Wal-Mart. If I find a couple of those, then Bumblebee is going to have to wait. An MP SS or 2, a set of winter tires and some early X-mas shopping should just about wipe out the overtime pay.
Although, I am kinda curious to see how Bumblebee handles in the snow... :-?

Was running around all over the place today, so check your PMs. If you don't have a PM and need one, hit me up.

by **BB.206** » Sat Nov 10, 2007 8:45 pm

Since I got word that they are sold out now. I'll put it up here. Marysville WalMart had MP Starscream today. There were about 10 left after I picked up mine and I sent some PMs.

by **perithimus** » Sun Nov 11, 2007 2:55 am

It looks like everyone who wanted a pm has found one. I am sorry if I overlooked anyone. There were 4 mp starscreams left today at everett walmart when I got mine just now.

Nice work team. Except now I am gonna have to order some of the other Masterpieces, cause I think I am gonna be hooked on them. That thing is pretty sick.
