I was haunting the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area in PA yesterday (a couple counties north), and didn't see squat...found me a Treadbolt, though! I wonder...are they making an official shelf space, or are they gonna be endcap material? Sometimes Target sticks specials like these near the front registers and I almost miss 'em.

LMAO ha ha I just noticed how the box says "Standoff Beneath the Streets," which is hilarious because Springer (Evac) is a helicopter, and the other guy is a jet...so why in all hell would they be underground? Ha ha that's gonna keep me up for a while! :tfrofl :tfrofl :tfrofl

in my local target it had it's own space on the shelf between the universe ultras and voyagers.

The new T!T's are out too. I picked up Grimlock the other day from TRU. Prowl is out also, looks like we are also getting R/W/B Optimal Optimus and Soundblaster.

 

i dont think were gettin primal prime and soundblaster those were gonna be released when they thought the titaniums would be a hit the new titaniums were not origionally gonna be released until tru asked to be an exclusive after the titanium series had been scrapped they just never changed the box.

 

Yeah, the "probable" chances are nill, but the exclusive chances are possible, but realistictly not gonna happen. Since both are repaints, it would be an easy go as a desperation move, all thats needed is a chain willing to front a buck.

 

I don't see it happening, but in 2 years if they come out as a Target Exclusive, I'd say it's half expected.

 

As for the price point on these 2 packs, It sucks, but if I still have a job when I see these I will be getting the RoadBuster/Dirge set. The $30 price point only adds to me not wanting the Springer/Ratbat set though.

i love both of these two packs.. hopefully i can find the dirge one soon. i really like both of the springer/ratbat molds, and i haven't owned either before, and i'd rather have these has springer and ratbat rather than evac or blades and sideways. springer has always been one of my favorite characters, i would have loved a universe treatment to his G1 character but this one will do for me. and i think the sideways mold is great for a ratbat. i don't know why the price point has changed. in my area, target and walmarts prices are still normal.. deluxe $9.99 (walmart $7.77 for now), voyager $19.99, ultra $26.99, and leader $39.99.

thirty bucks?

 

:wave Universe Dirge, I didn't want you THAT bad.

$30 shucks there goes that plan. Roadbuster I like you and Dirge and all that, but I don't LIKE you that much. $25 maybe, but surely not $30.

Isn't $30 the price for each figure anyway? like $20 Vgr + $10 Dlx = $30

People are acting like the price is unreasonably high...

Please see Ultra Magnus/Skywarp two-pack, which was only $19.99 (and was a voyager and a deluxe AND I got on clearance for $17.99)
