Yesterday I was at my nearest Walmart, they had Scourge, Kup and Blurr. But no Warpath.

I hate when that happens. Next time, grab em all

I saw him with Wheeljack and Thundercracker at my local Wal-Mart but didn't pick them up. I returned a few days later and Thundercracker was the only one there. I still didn't pick him up. I really regret that.

Help getting warpath!!
For those of you who had the Warpath wave hit their area, I REALLY need some help in acquiring one. I'm looking to trade because I'm short on $$$ right now.

There was a shitload of these guys at the Redding CA Walmart. I picked up a Warpath even though I have one coming from BBTS. AWESOME figure. The best one since Scourge. They had at least 5 more Warpaths and tons of Thundercrackers. Maybe 3 or 4 Wheeljacks and plenty of other stuff too.

Problem is Lugnut and Grapple are RTS and not Generations. Same thing with the legends figures.

Over in AZ we haven't seen a Lugnut or any of his ilk at retail, and people are apparently snapping up Warpath/TC/WJ left and right. I just got my Warpath last night.
I'm thinking this wave is real now.

I really hope this wave makes it to my area!

Well there's still hope for those looking for WJ, TC or WP. Saw a whole slew of them at my Walmart this morning. I can upload pictures later if you want to see.

No dude, there was a wave of WJ & TC then the next wave added Warpath, but it also has WJ & TC.
Strangely, wave 7 (the WJ & TC wave) seems to have dissapeared from entertainment earth's listings… Not sure what's up with that

I live in New York on Long Island and we are ussually the LAST area to get stuff; you guys on the west coast typically get things first, then they trickle their way down to us. About 2 weeks ago a friend of mine found & bought both Perceptor & Wreck-Gar at one of our local Target's.
Before that, I found Scourge & Sergent Kup at one of my local Toys-R-Us stores. There were at least 2 of each of those TF's on the pegs, but I only had enough to get Scourge and passed up Kup; no other newer figures from their assortment were seen there. Then, just this past Sunday, I went to the Target were my friend got Perceptor/Wreck-Gar and found a Perceptor.
So, if I'm seeing these things in MY neck of the woods where it takes us a while to get anything "new", you guys further west may have gotten them already and just never see them on the pegs. Look at it like this; what if they're only getting 1 case of new stuff at a time? That's say roughly 2 of each figure (2 Thundercracker, 2 Warpath, 2 Wheeljack, etc…). The TRU opens at 9am, and throughout the course of the day people buy the figures (be it collectors or scalpers). If you get to the store by 5 o'clock and only see case-refresh figures (maybe Sergent Kup is in the same case as those above 3 figures), would you ever really know if the new figures were ever there??
I worked for TRU for about 3-4 months back during the TF Universe line & worked the morning shift 4 days a week so I was just about the first person in the store everyday. I got to watch figures appear and this disappear on the shelves and constantly was checking the backroom for new cases. Believe me when I say if you're not at the store every single day exactly when they open, there is no 100% guaranteed way to know what figures were on the pegs before you got there. If Hasbro put a sticker on the bubbles saying "Re-Pack" or "2nd Release" then you could look at that Kup figure & accurately say "Okay, Wave 4 was here but I just missed it.".
I'm still waiting for Lugnut to show up, and if he does I'm going to grab him right then & there. Hasbrotoyshop.com lists alot of the figures we're not seeing in stores but the majority of them are out of stock. Take a look:
Hasbro Toy Shop TF's Page 8
All the new PCC 2-packs are sold out, WARPATH is sold out, even Lugnut & Grapple are. So maybe it's just taking time for these figures to wiggle their way into our local stores; it'll take them longer if there are still RtS Voyagers clogging up the place. I hope to find some of these in stores, if not then I'll have to resort to online if I really REALLY want them.
