Finally starting to see the Velocitron collection at a local Walmart. At the Walmart in Nixa, they had everyone but Cosmos and Road Hauler. Of note, they had x4 of Universe Scourge, x2 Override, and one Clampdown. They had plenty of Blurr, Burn Out, and Road Rocket.

A side note, while coming back from visiting family in Arkansas, stopped by a Walmart in Harrison, i was able to spot one lonely Cosmos on the shelf which i bought for a friend.

Good luck,

I forgot to add this yesterday, the Target in Branson, had plenty of the Creatures Collide set but the slight highlight was Elita-1 from the Legacy wave 2 deluxes. This is hope as I am hoping to find Tarantulas and Wild Rider.

Something alittle different. Found this at the Sams Club in Springfield. If you are looking for a pretty cool Halloween Costume for your kid, this might be it. They had about five or so in the Halloween costume section. The particular one i took a photo of was a medium size (8-10). It give your child the ability to transform some what.

Enjoy!

If you have been waiting on the Tonkanator set to hit the store, the Target in Springfield had only one on the shelf.

Happy hunting!

For those looking for the newest series (2) for the Micromachines Transformers line, the Target in Branson did have (#07 - AOE) which i picked up. Unfortunately they didn't have anything else.

Hopefully, between this Target and the one in Springfield we should be seeing more of #05, #06, #07, and #08 in the near future.

Happy hunting,

Happy hunting

Happy hunting

Definitely been a hot minute since i posted anything on here. Part of that is due to not visiting the stores as much which is partly blamed on the availability seen on the shelves. It becomes less motivating for the “hunt” but I still try to remain hopeful.

I did finally see Maximal Leo Prime at a Target in Branson but that was it.

This morning at a local Walmart in Nixa, I spotted part of Wave 4 deluxes (finally). The only two on the pegs was x2 Breakdown and one lonely Needlenose. Before i departed the Walmart someone had snagged Needlenose. This should be promising that more will be in the stores.

Good luck hunting,

I cannot believe I finally found Legacy wave 3 deluxes in a store. Spotted them at my local Walmart in Nixa. They have at least one each remaining on the pegs.

Good luck

Nothing really new so to speak to highlight but i wanted to share what i found at a Walmart in Buffalo.

If for some reason you are still trying to find Shadowstrip or Clampdown from the Velocitron Speedia collection, they had at least 3x Shadowstrip and 2x Clampdown. Believe it or not, not pictured they had 4x Sludge and 1x Blitzwing.

Happy hunting,

Starting to see ROTB stuff at the local Walmart. If you are looking for the movie mask, the Walmart in Nixa had at least one each on the shelf. In addition, they had the Flex Changers; Bumblebee, Nightbird, and Cheetor.

Happy Hunting,

Today i found from the ROTB movie line, Rhinox. Both Walmarts in Nixa and Ozark had at least two each. In addition, at the Nixa Walmart they had one Optimus Prime. He was tucked in behind the two Rhinox boxes.

Happy Hunting

It looks nice, but I can't help but think the mainline version is a dead-ringer for Transmetal Rhinox, and needs the colors.

Of cpurse, this particular one also had 8-} eyes.

I had to refresh my memory on what the Transmetal version looked like. I see your point, it would make a good redeco for sure.

Today i saw some new stuff or at least the first time seeing it in the store. All the Buzzworthy “ROTB”type stuff was spotted at the Target in Branson.

At the GameStop in Springfield, I spotted the Generations Selects Guardian, for those who have 200 dollars laying around. In addition, they had the G1 style Megatron Helmet on clearance for 103 dollars. That one isn’t really new i have seen it in there before. The GS Guardian, not sure how long it has been on the shelf but it’s been some time since i was in this store.

Other than that, haven’t seen anything else.

Good luck,

What are the best stores around St Louis to Carbondale (illinois) to look for toy goodness?
