I was in the Kokomo, IN store this morning, and while there was no display, all 3 of those lines mentioned were full on the shelves and legs, plus some stragglers on the top “overage” shelf.

I've hit 5 stores in 2 states and only found them randomly placed on pegs with everyone else.

Saw that display in the Ford Road Canton WalMart yesterday. Could Netflix Magnus fit in any of those spots, because he was the one NFEST that I didn't see (and have absolute zero interest in), and is conspicuously absent from this pic too.
Got Megs, Hotlink, and Chromia, plus ER Screamer and Astrotrain (is there some minor deco difference between him and Siege Astrotrain?)
Prior to this, the only ER Voyager I'd seen anywhere were 4 Grapples in the Wonderland Walmart a month or 2 ago. Since Starscream is apparently so much more popular, I'll take my chances on him shelfwarming until a decent sale.
I wish I'd seen wave 2 of those Maccadam BAFs. Not as much as Apeface and Ratbat though. Sigh.

I posted about this in the Earthrise thread yesterday. I guess I should have emailed it. My Wal-Mart got this display in on Thursday. I'm about to drop $100 on ER wave 1...

I went to two Wal Marts but no displays. I am seeing deluxe ER figures, even caught sight of one Netflix Megatron. Either the display is at select stores or they haven't gotten the supplies yet. It's 50/50 on either possibility.
All I'm looking for in Wave 1 is Astrotrain and Grapple at this point. I have the Deluxes I want. I am iffy on Starscream because we just got one last year with Skywarp and Thundercracker.

I was looking for that post but forgot who had said it and in which thread. But you get the proper credit now

Here in the "good ol' state" of Mississippi the first wave of Earthrise and Netflux have been found at multiple locations. The local Target even had placed Earthrise Prime and Astrotrain out like 2 months ago, in which i got Astrotrain but was dumb and didn't get Prime too ( I thought this wave wasn't due out til June).
I'm worried I won't see much of the next wave because out here one wave will be overstocked then the next wave may not even show up. Plus some of the local Walmarts are restocking on the last wave of Siege....

On the display I saw there were 4 Grapples, 2 Starscreams, and 4 each of the ER deluxes. I didn't count the Netflix deluxes, but the display had 4 each of Megatron and Hotlink.

Oh thank you. I figured not emailing would disqualify me. I will admit I should have taken a better picture, but I was at work and in a hurry.william-james88 wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:I posted about this in the Earthrise thread yesterday.

Those Netflix figures are clogging my Walmart. Instead of stocking the new Earthrise study, it’s full of slight repaints of the figures they just got rid of. And no leader class figures.

Wow.... I guess this is great for those who haven't had Wave 1 ER figures since late Jan to Mid Feb. from Target.
So here's hoping local Targets will start receiving new Wave 2 figures in the next couple weeks (instead of July-Aug like the online pre-orders) since nothing's been on those selves but SS and cyber-verse stuff.
Netflix repaints are a hard pass for me to.

Neither of the two Walmarts I hit this weekend had a display. The first had 6 or 7 ER Grapples plus a single Netflix Chromia and Netflix Megatron. The second Walmart had a couple of ER Primes plus an ER Astrotrain, along with 3 Netflix spoiler boxes, a single Netflix Megatron, 3 Netflix Sideswipes, 3 Netflix Hotlinks, and one each of Netflix Chromia and Netflix Mirage. My weekend haul was a Netflix Chromia, Sideswipe, and Hotlink. I want the Teletraan 1 display so I gotta get the five deluxe figures and I'm a sucker for Battlemasters and the weapon effects. Netflix Megatron and Netflix Scrapface have already been purchased so all I need is Netflix Hound. Tempted to get the Spoiler Box just for the glowing Rung. He's the same color as the Energon cubes so I can only hope he either gets powered up or drunk in the Netflix show

Went to a Walmart for the first time in maybe two weeks tonight. No display, no endcap, and even fewer figures in the Transformers section than the last time I went. No NetFlix Voyagers, just 5 or so Deluxes and a couple spoiler sets. No Earthrise at all, I still haven't seen a single ER Deluxe in person yet at any store. Price tags are there and they're cheaper than on Amazon so hopefully soon.
