I'm beginning to get a little worried. When I first started collecting Zoids, just over a year ago, Wal-Mart was where I got most. TRU had a large selection and Target carried what the other two didn't. Now Wal-Mart has none, TRU hasn't updated very much other than Ultrasaurus and Target only has shelf space for a few, and I've been waiting for Energy Liger. They have a spot on the shelf but havn't had any. Every time I ask they say "check back next week". I don't have alot of confidence in my abilty to get them locally and don't really like ordering over the net but I may not have much choice!

both of my Toys'r'us used to have huge section dedicated to zoids with a little Liger Zero display and everything. Now that display is filled with either Yu-gi-oh or squirt guns. Zoids have been pused to the side next to the GI joe's and Gundam toys.
Target on the other hand moved the Zoids section to the back next to the ninja turtles and Pokemon.
Walmart hasn't had anything new in a while..
I really hope Zoids can survive..I think the show being on Cartoon Network and the loalyty of fans is what's keeping them on the shelves to tell you the truth.

Squirt Guns? Yikes, thats bad. On the other hand, I think GI joe is one of Hasbros other main lines (correct me if i'm wrong, i'm not to sure), so perhaps they're keeping Hasbros lines together or something. However, I've been hearing whispers that Hasbro are planning to ditch the line later this year... I just hope the rumors are wrong.

TRU still has pokemon? Odd. Last time I went to TRU they had a buttload of Zoids, but that was in November. Target had a DimetroPtera, two EL's (One's mine now, hehe) , and several Shellkarns and Flyscissors, last time I was there.

They have Ruby Sapphire Pokemon...
Wal-mart doesn't sell them annymore, the giant wave of power rangers takes all the space...wow...
target might still be of some use...keep checking every week...
