Re: How often do you check your local stores for new Transformers?

Enough that a know the faces of all the Toys R Us employees.

More specifically, when I know something new has been released then up to 4 times until I get it. Otherwise only when I'm in the area, maybe 1-2 times, sometimes none.

I check my local stores alot, but only if it's a transformer that's on my most wanted list.

For example: ROTF Leader Jetfire.

I took a break today.

Re: How often do you check your local stores for new Transformers?

Once a week I guess, normally due to passing by a TRU/Walmart/Zellers/Winners everytime when I leave the island via the west to go racing. Sometimes I hit Namur's Walmart and CDN Zellers cause it's close to home

Re: How often do you check your local stores for new Transformers?

Everyday if I can. I not working right now so I have the time. When I do get back to work, I'd say about 3x a week . . . a few different stops those days.

It's an illness, I say . . . but I love it. Half the fun is the hunt for me. Plus I get to help others by posting here.

Cheers

Same here, but lately its just for decent sales and clearance items. That and I have a family member working at Zellers who will get me what I want right when it comes in to save on the constant trips.

Pretty much daily depending on the weather, work, and what's out there to find.

Re: How often do you check your local stores for new Transformers?

I only hit up the stores after a new item(s) have been reported in the sightings.

Otherwise, it can be hours of fruitless searching.

Cheers!
