Seen a lot of Dinobot, Smokescreen, the latest legends wave in the Ridgecrest and Lancaster Wal-Marts...a ton, a TON of Ultra Mags and Lugnuts and Leader Bulkheads and Jetfire/Jetstorms warming the shelves everywhere I go and the Tehachapi K-Mart. Found Universe Starscream, Cheetor and Cyclonus at the California City Rite-Aid. Found 2 Infernos in the Ridgecrest Wal-Mart.

 

No Leader Class Animated Megatrons or activator Cliffjumpers to be found, oddly enough.

Aha:

 

The Target in Lancaster has: Universe Ratchet, Hotshot, Smokescreen, Dinobot, Storm Cloud (who'd make a much better mold for Tailwind, IMO) and more Animated Blitzwings than you can shake a stick at. But there were no Sunstorms or Grapewaves to be found.

 

The Target in Palmdale has an endcap full of Sunstorms and Grapewaves, a handful of Dinobots warming the pegs, but no Hotshots, Ratchets or Smokescreens. There WAS one Leo Prime and a couple of Overloads.

    • 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.
