Snagged all 6 of the wave 1 movie deluxes last night. There is a bit of a story behind it, but I will just say that the LS Wal-Mart and the Indep WM on Bolger both had Movie figs on the pallets. The Bolger WM had most of one box liberated and purchased (a little before the stockers managed to find space on the pegs). I also tried the Voyagers, but they wouldn't scan on the price-checkers, so I didn't even bother trying to buy them.

 

Anyway, check those WMs for your deluxe figures.

Just got back from hunting. Indep. target is holding firm on the june 2 release date. they have shelf space marked off.

Indep walmart had nothing, and apparently, the walmart on Blue Ridge doesnt carry TFs.

I asked 3 sales floor workers, and they never even heard of TFs, and none of the managers would cooperate and check the back room.

they had no shelf space, no price markers of any sort. nothing.

No more Voyager Starscream. I went out there based on these posts and snagged him.

 

Man do I know where all the Movie figs will be available on June 2nd. That Target has 1/2 the aisle all ready to go for stocking. That's kinda nice since I think a lot of stores around here aren't quite ready to stock any new merchandise when the date rolls around. At least I will have somewhere to go. :thumb

I'll be at the LS Target first thing in the morning. If I can't find everything there, then I will definitely be going to the Indep Target later in the afternoon.

 

Nothing is being stocked at the LS Wal-Mart by the way. I didn't even see anything on the pallets.

I hit indep target today.

My GF snagged me 3 real gear (cell phone, gameboy, and camera), and I also got deluxe barricade and FAB OP.

I love the real gear guys, and barricade is cool, but the fast action battlers are my new favorite figures!

indep TRU also has the movie stuff, plus they have the movie legends figures.

I'm headed up there tomorrow to snag some more FABs.

    • Please tell me this won't be the only release of TFP Cliffjumper...
    • If you've not had your fill of Transformers collaborative news today, here is some more with a leaked product listing for the Project Knight: Transformers X Knight Rider crossover. We've been dreaming of this one, and it appears a transforming K.I.T.T. will be coming as soon as August! It must be something big and or special with a $49. - Read the Full News Story
    • Tonight on GotBot Goes Live, we talked Transformers news for the newest multipack and some reissues. We also talked collaboratives with TMNT, an Ectotron reissue and, maybe, even Star Wars? Plus, we address the MP Ginrai teaser image and answer who is Riggorus?  
    • EDIT 2: Okay, I think my real problem with this was the marketing image. The main image shows four robot turtles standing together, so I was ready for four toys, not one. Admittedly, I was so disappointed that I did not bother to read the article fully. That's my fault. I apologize. That said, now that I understand it is THE van that turns into a robot, not "robot versions of the four turtles," that makes more sense, but I don't get the four heads. There are images here of a bandana free head which I gather is not included. I would actually prefer a non-specific generic turtle head for the robot. I think that would remove a lot of confusion. At least for me. EDIT 1: My bad, I misunderstood. It's one toy with swappable heads. So, you made a thing based on a four member team, and you only want to sell one toy? You're not even trying to get people to "Collect all FOUR!" You do understand how toy sales work, right? Original Comment: This is a perfectly fine idea executed TERRIBLY. You made four unique toys, each specific to each of the Ninja Turtles, that all turn into the same vehicle? It would be one thing if they joined together to form the van. There have been transformer sets like that before. This is just wasted opportunity. Not to mention, that van exists for the turtles to ride in together as a team, so if they can turn into vehicles ... what do they need a van for? I get that that's their van, and that's cute and all, but ... this is just dumb and disappointing. Why not think about what kind of car each of them would drive based on their personalities, or ask some car company if they want to do a tie-in promotional? What do I want with four copies of the same van and no one to ride in any of them? It makes no sense.
