I have good news for everyone!
I just got back from Wal-Mart (which was a mad house, even at 6:10 in the morning...nothing short of insane...) and I had a brief talk with the Toy Department Manager, and the news is as follows:
1.) TF stock is in the stores, or at least most of them. (How much and what is unknown. It's all being held in the back.)
2.) The shelves are being cleared for a mod reset. (Whatever figures are due to be put out, plus those that couldn't be put out before, will now be on shelves. This might (keyword: MIGHT) be where all the MP Starscreams have been.
3.) I had this reset confirmed by the toy associate. (He, his boss and her crew along with the store's assistant manager were putting everything that didn't sell, into clearance, which is a lot of items already on the shelves. Along the way, they were scanning inventory and confirming the new mod reset, with papers in hand.)
So don't panic people! TFs will hit the shelves again! Oh and the mod reset is due for the second week of January, which fits with the time frame that the Hasbro associate had for the Allspark Power figures to debut. (This was mentioned in a MP Starscream thread months ago)
I cannot speak for Target's plan or their stock levels, so ymmv.
