Still no luck on Scourge.

I haven't had that problem. I just line the head up straight and it goes right in its nook.

The whole point of Reveal the Shield is for you to not know what faction the robot is allied with until you reveal the rubsign. But right on the back of the box of Turbo tracks is a big fat :BOT: . But anyone who's seen G1 already knows what faction each robot belongs to. :-B .

Nah, the point of reveal the shield is to have a new line out on shelves and to appeal to nostalgia freaks like me.

Picked up Thrust today at Kohls! The packaging was all torked up, but that didn't bother me. They also had Cybertronian Prime/Bumblebee

Just need to find Dirge now and await Thundercracker's arrival and me seekers and coneheads will be complete!

I walked down the Wally World toy aisle last night and low and behold, 1 Rodimus v. Cyclonus 2-pack!

Needless to say, I made the purchase.

They also had the exclusive movie Skywarp/Ramjets for 11.00 a piece.

You know, a few weeks before Christmas when I started collecting again, I saw Red Alert AND Dirge on the pegs in Target. I remember telling the guy I was with how cool it was to see them made again...and then I left.

I am now in a constant state of regret for not buying both of them. Looking at the new dead on likeness of Cyclonus and Thrust on my shelf really makes me appreciate this new generation/RTS line of figures. I've limited my purchases now to the characters I grew up with (G1). I can't wait for Wheeljack!

I hope I come across these two guys again soon. :sad:

Message I was just at walmart here and they had dirge and red alert. I also was able to get soundwave and another blurr.

Are those scout class any kool. I pick up two couldn't pass them up at that price.

Anyone who need anything message me I'll sell it for retail and shipping cost. Walmart is 11.98 plus tax and target is 9.09 plus tax

Believe it or not, I just happened to make a pit stop with the wife at K-Mart last night (haven't shopped there in years), and there he was...Tracks....hanging on the peg! 12 less dollars in my wallet.

There was another Autobot hanging there named Backdrop, Backflip, Outback..I forgot the name. He was a brown truck/suv. Didn't get him because I wasn't familiar with the character.

The arrogance that is Tracks is great, especially in bot mode. Nice piece!

Was out and about on New Years eve and stopped at the Mechanicsburg, PA Target, sauntered down the toy aisle and there were 3 RTS Battle in Space packs. I grabbed one! went back today, they had 0 left, lots of WFC Cliffjumpers on the pegs along with some PCCs Thunderwing, Sea Attack Ravage, Dirge, Terradive as well as some scouts and a few HFTD voyager class which i wasnt interested in because of the terrible colour scheme, i think it was a hovercraft of some kind but it looked hella dumb (was really disappointed with HFTD line, not many winners). Stopped at Walmart today, only a few RTS on the pegs, and alot of PCCs and scouts, a few Red alerts nothing else of note there. I think we will see the next wave very shortly as most of the places I have been to have not restocked their TF shelves since new years.
