Do you mean the Samurai Star? Or is there something else I'm missing? But i can definately help you out if I see him. New on the hunt today is Chase and Boulder from RBs. They are the mini guys like Blades and Heatwave were, but they're still cool. and they go good with the smaller size Optimus Primal. Good times... Evo BB is up here at N. Olmsted along with two Prowls. NO sign of the new GENs yet or the Legions. WM sucks. TGT sucks. KM sucks. TRU is the only one somewhat keeping up and now they're warming pegs and shelves. The latest shippment of Voyagers got put out and they were all the GEN Whirls and such. BUT.... I'll tell you what I find. As always.


Yeah, the Samurai Star guy. He's all green and comes with two Super Megaforce keys. He's been sighted in Canada, but nothing here. Sadly. =\

As for the stores, I wouldn't give up hope just yet. All of them are either going through, or about to go through, their resets. The ones here in Ashtabula have.

Those who still haven't found Deluxe Drift, please try you local malls that has FYE or For Your Entertainment stores! Plenty of Transformer and Pacific Rim items there and the price is no higher than TRU! I paid $14.99 for mine..

Wal*Mart exclusive AOE 2-Packs found in Ashtabula. Bought the Stinger VS Slug set. It's awful.

STILL no WM exclusives, but N. OLmsted TGT had the big OP and BB R/C transforming cars. $50 a pop, and I can see the appeal, but I don't need one. No sightings of Snarl or Lockdown yet. I've seen the Voyager Drift, but not the Sludge (I won't call him the other thing). I think that's it for over here. Anything new and I'll let you know as always. And if ANYONE seed the Super Megaforce Ninja Star, let me know!!!

Finally! Grabbed a Lockdown at Avon TGT. Nikkon R/Cs there, too. That's all, though.

While working out of state, found AOE Galvatron last night after work at a local Target down here at North Carolina!!! Even though the he has flaws and bland paint apps, still a great figure and alt mode is badass!!!

FINALLY saw the WM exclusive Legends. I like the G-Lock. The BB is the same, Stinger is bleh, and OP looks like the same mold. I don't know... That's like ALL the news I have for you guys. I hope later this week is better!

Finally picked up AOE Deluxe Lockdown. Awesome Lambo mode, bot mode is SO-SO but he's growing on me and for $10.00 what do you expect.

First Edition Silver Knight Optimus up here at TGT. I like him, but not for $60. Not yet anyway... Also saw the one step multipack. That will definately be mine!

Nothing all that interesting at Chapel Hill TRU or Target. Leader Jetfire. Tankor. No Rattrap. That's all I want is Rattrap then I can take a few more years off from buying again.

I don't know from whence thou hails, Almighty Muffin... But there is a Ratrap here in Avon at WM. There are Deluxe Drifts at Avon TGT. Saw Evolution Optimus at Elyria TRU yesterday! No Jetfires, though.
WM also has the WM-Ex AoE with the three figures up here. More importantly, TRU has the TRU-Ex AoE with two movie edition Kreons! Prime and Galvagator. That's the one I picked up and for some reason, it was $10 cheaper, so I got it for 20, not 30! I think that's all for now, I of course will keep you fully ABREAST of all that I find! Peace out, my homies!

I'm over in Cuyahoga Falls. If I still lived where I used to that would be a trip worth taking for RT.

Ooo... I forgot something. I don't know if y'all are collecting the Hero Mashers, but the new wave of the slightly larger boxes is out here in Avon. I saw Soundwave and SlAg. Rodimus is in the wave, but of course they didn't have any of him. But it's nice to know I'll have yet another Master of the Red and Gold to put up in my homage...

Has anybody in Ohio (or anywhere near Lake Erie) seen the second wave of Kre-o AoE blind packs? I thought they were supposed to be out in August, but I keep checking the local stores and there's nothing. It's driving me a little bonkers...

Also, if anyone's interested, the local Meijer stores are selling the basic Hero Masher sets for only five bucks.

Elyria TRU had ONE Jetfire... It's mine now. So technically, I sighted it. But it doesn't matter cause you can't have it. =; Nothing else new that I can think of, so I'll be back when there is.

WOW! Not much action on this thread. Anyway, I've manage to pickup AOE Slog and Voyager Drift and Generation Jetfire for my collection. Other than that not much else out there.

Hey, Y'all!! Just a quick check-in! I've seen RiD, CW Legends, and the latest wave of GEN deluxes. My stores have actually been on the ball lately. No Deluxe or Leaders for the CW line. I think our convos will pick up soon now that there are two new lines creeping out. I hope you all had a brilliant Christmas and New Year's and I will see you around!

I picked up CW Silverbolt at Meijer in Maumee. They 1 left and 2 CW Primes. I'm skipping Prime and waiting for Motormaster. I didn't collect much last year but I'm all over CW. I've been to 2 wal-marts this weekend and no CW there. I'm hoping to get into a Target or 2 and maybe TRU tomorrow or Monday.

Sighted RiD One-Step BB. Also, the Target in Avon had Hero Mashers BB/Swoop double pack on clearance for $8.98!! No, I am NOT kidding! So, if you're around me and want one, hurry. I don't know if they'll be that price at another TGT. WM's price was still $30! That's all for now... Still no CW ANYWHERE!

Just to give everyone a heads-up. I now work on the East side of Cleveland (while still trucking it to the far west side home...) So my hunting grounds have expanded a bit to Euclid and South Euclid and the parts around there. I don't know if these means ANYTHING to you guys, but I just thought I'd tell ya.

CW Bombshell at North Olmsted TRU along with Thundercracker and Windcharger. No deluxes and no Voyagers. SMDH I'm striking out left and right. I did see the rescan RescueBots at a couple Targets. That's like it, though... I'm afraid I might be feeling the calling to be an online hunter. I don't want to do that, but when the resources are fished out, there really is no other option... I don't know what's up with the distributors, but I know they don't care about the collectors, just the money. A BIG shout out to the third parties and custom shops out there making beautiful figs for the masses because of the love of the art!!

FINALLY found the CW "Limbs" at the Meijer in Maumee! They also re-stocked the Wave 1 Voyagers. I got the OP, but I'm still waffling on Silverbolt. The jet mode looks kind of, well, sloppy: like they just crammed a bunch of robot arms underneath the top half of a plane. Can anyone point me to a decent review, or give me some perspective on whether or not it's as bad as it looks in the stock photos?

Thanks,
