I live in rather small Texarkana. We only got the basic boosters and the two packs here. No deluxe or promo packs were in the layout. I suppose this is due to the smallness of our local store. I wish a bigger TRU was closer but alas the next closest is over 80 miles away. I guess it would be just as efficent to buy the other pieces I need from amazon.com.

i'm in texas. near dallas and denton. so i've got about 4 easy to get to TRUs. all within an hour/1.5 hour drive time. depends a lot on traffic. so far the tru closest to me has had everything but was nearlly picked to the bones the last time i was there. maybe 3 value packs and 6 boosters and then 20 double packs. while 20 might seem like a large number, this is chopped down in half from a 1.5 weeks ago. needless to say Xevoz is sell'n rather well near me. and no i'm not the only one buying them Your_Number1_Fan

[glow=blue,2,300]Heh, I lived in the Metroplex for about ten years. I miss the stores and restuarants. My TRU restocked a new case and has reduced the peg space from 9 to 3. I hope this is just due to not having enough stock to warrant the allotment and not a reduced interest in the brand. It seems to have sold well so far so maybe they just gave that space to Zoids temporarily until series 2 comes out.[/glow] ~SS~

the metroplex rocks... unless you're the one driving. have to be keen on the horn and hand signals... and lets not forget ol'betsy the shotgun. oh and the cow bar on the front of the jacked up truck. yee ha above = joke anyways went to tru yesterday but didn't see anything new. i know from working there a year or two that they'll "loose" cases every now and then durring shipments only to show up once they clear out the back. that could explain the lack of space for your xevoz section. Zoids are on perminant sale at my TRU. thought about picking up a few but i think i'm just going to let that collection die. Your_Number1_Fan

figured i wouldn't start a new thread for this.
i found the sky grinder guy at a target near me. kind of in between plano and lewisville. there are like 3 or 4 targets around, so i'll have to hit the other ones this weekend. he's a pretty cool figure, much better then what i had origionally thought.

[glow=navy,2,300]I finally found wave 2 at the Target in Texarkana (Extreme Northeast portion of the state). They had everything but the wave 2 2 packs. I got the only two Sky Grinders they put out.

Xevoz are in full swing in Austin.
Both TRUs are selling wave 1 on the pegs, but also have TS+SP, and the Iron Spectre case. I figure they must have wave 2 and 3 in the back waiting for someone to buy an army of Alpha Rangers and Sledge Troopers (they keep restocking the value packs, how many of these could they have?!).
About 2/3 of the Targets have Xevoz. Most of them have wavve 3 trickling in on the pegs, all of them had the IS case.
Since the reports of Walmarts, I have been checking them periodically. I hhave seen them at two locations now, and interestingly the first time I see them, it looks like they have been ransacked. One location had 3 empty pegs for master modifier packs, 4 for boosters, and had 5 boosters left. Ironicaly, one of those boosters was my Storm Wing (finally).
Both fortunately and unfortunately, 3 places to buy are all located right by Lakeline mall (tru, target and walmart)... 5 minutes away from my workplace..
