I just got from a trip through Millersburg and Wooster, Ohio and found both to be gearing up for their HFTD reset. They had several voyager class items in stock in both stores. Things are looking up. :grin:

similar situation here, except mine had PCC 5-packs. I was hoping for either them or Drift.

We are looking forward to the all black set of PCC. Now after seeing the Dinobot version I'll be anxious to see it as well. The wife was wondering what to get me for Christmas this year. I think I actually made it easy on her this time around. The best part is that she is getting into it as well. Good thing we have a lot of space in our house. :lol:

My ToysRUs is basically begging people to buy their NEST Alliance stuff... cut the price from $15 to $10 Canadian for Deluxes and the entire row is still full of 'em *shakes fist at Mudflaps*.

This doesn't quite match the thread title, but I was at my local Target today. They had nothing. I mean NOTHING. Not one Deluxe, not one Voyager, not one Leader. Imagine staring at 15+ empty pegs.

At first I was disappointed, but then I realized they were gearing up for Generations and HFTD (and POC G.I.Joe too!).

Similar situation in several central Virginia Target locations except plenty of Mudflaps. The TF space allotment seems pretty shrunken and I wonder if the new line will get a better berth.

I work at Wal Mart in Georgia, and we still have nothing. Just left over RoTF crap.

I was at a TRU Express Thursday (7/29) and was told a truck with TF stuff on would be arriving soon and be shelved by Wednesday. The clerk didn't know the particulars beyond that, however. They had a nice selection at the store, if you like animated Grimlock and RotF Bumblebee.

My Target's completely empty of TF stuff, except for the Bumblebee roleplaying things on a bottom shelf. They're resetting in a few days.

Walmart had the PCC 5-packs, finally picked up Bombshock. Expecting the rest of the 2010s over the next week, hopefully they'll have some HA Mudflaps and Wave 2 won't be long in coming.

Dunno about my TRU, but I'll have to check soon.

Went by again today camera in hand. The reset sheets are up and in our store that means the swap will be in the next few days. The date that is set is 08/09/2010 but normally once these guys go up the change happens in 48 hours. Things are looking up. :grin:

Sorry for the pic quality, it's a cell phone.

That's probably Walmart's Has to be done by date, meaning some will set faster than others, but none will be later than next monday

It seems like everyone's got some of the new 2010 stuff except my Walmart...

My walmarts stock has been stagnant for the past 6 months. The exact same Stratospheres and Starscreams have been there since they put them on the shelves last year.

They don't restock regularly either...

Sigh.. I hate my Walmart. They are so lazy and slow. Took them forever to stock the Iron Man 2 stuff when that was new. They had those sheets up for like a week and a half before they did anything. Hopefully it doesn't happen with Transformers. I don't like wasting gas to see paper sheets in the toy isle.

I got the stuff I wanted for HFTD from Toys R us (well the first wave at least), But I still want to see if there are exclusives and generations stuff.

Wow, I was up to Millersburg last fall for a Digital Dish meeting, talk about the Big ****ing Empty. That place is where you go if you don't like seeing more then 5 living souls at a time.

I wish the Dayton area stores would reset.
