Man I have been hunting all over for these guys and still nothing! Thanks for letting us know, nilocomic!

Was just at Golf Mill TRU in Niles around noon today. They had Nintendo Switch in stock if you are looking for one of those consoles. For Transformers, they had 2x Infernocus, 2x Masterpiece MP-10 Optimus Prime, 1 of the Reveal Your Shield Optimus Primes, 2x Chaos on Velocitron sets, 2x Leader Class TLK Optimus Prime figures, and I think that's it for newer figures.

This morning, I bought the last Titans Return 2-pack with Wingspan and Cloudraker at the Mount Prospect Walgreens on Elmhurst near Golf.

Rosemont Target had 3 of the PotP dinobots and one Dreadwing/wind tonight, on an end cap. No Jazz.

Fri Dec 08, 2017 7:44 pm

Orland Park Target has one Power of the Primes Dinobot Slash (got the other one) and two Insecticon Shrapnel. They were not in the usual Transformers spot but in the next aisle with the Justice League toys. Unknown how they got there but most people passed them by because looked to cost $16. They were still there when I bought it.

Happy Hunting

Movie Studio series is here at meijer in Oswego; bought starscream, left optimus. So if you have one near you, they should have some small qualities, if they're not on the shelf, go bug a manager, they should help.
