Carpenter Road Target in Ann Arbor had 1 Voyager TF Prime Optimus. It is still there. I didn't buy it.

target in flint(miller rd) said that the release date was not until the 27th of february....that's what it says on the box...according to them. The one guys also gave me a hard time and said that they are not supposed to look in back for collecter figures that already have product on the shelf. I said there's nothing out there....at least no rid. on the flip side, I saw some rid deluxes at great lakes target...bb's and wj's.

Westland TRU had some Prime stuff out today. Looked like one full case of Bot Shots, Cyberverse, and Deluxes. I almost grabbed the Sentinel Prime Bot Shot since it was "special" but they looked way too gimmicky for me to get into. I did grab me a Wheeljack like I planned and a Soundwave since there was only one. Wheeljack is awesome! Sounwave is much better than I epected.

Agreed on all counts. I haven't seen any cyberverse yet and I like the botshots...they're cute. BUT, I don't see them selling that well...I kinda hope they do..but if they don't I'll pick 'em up on clearance.

Well guys I finally got the dough and ordered MP-10 Convoy. It came yesterday. I have to say it's pretty sweet albeit the loose right shoulder joint. Common problem, I guess, but it doesn't seem to be affecting the poseability so I'm not really concerned about it. It's not severe. Anyways, after I opened him up and got him prepped for shelf, I got to thinking that I really wish I had the long smokestacks for my 20th Anniversary Prime (MP-01). Here's my proposition for you guys. I will give up my Classics Ultra Magnus for a set of these smokestacks. I'm looking for the metal set that came in the black box. If anyone is interested, please send me a message. Thanks. "'til all are one"

I went ahead and bought the Sentinel Prime Kre-O at TRU today. I just couldn't pass up the $19.98 clearance price. I'm actually thinking about putting this one together. I think all I need now are Ratchet, Sideswipe, and Optimus. I'm totally excited for that Wheeljack Kreon! Not so excited that they seem to be trying to make the sets bigger. And I'm kinda disappointed with the Kreon selection in that Devastator set. I mean, two bots and four people? That's just crap.

Grabbed a RID Soundwave at Target in Madison Heights on John R this evening. Asked a lady working in toys if they had any dpci#087-06-0546 in stock. She found it on her little computer gun and said that there were 2 locations showing for it. She walkied a guy in the back and he brought out the Soundwave for me. What a rush after all the TF related disappointment we've been getting over the last few weeks! They didn't have any of the Voyagers yet, but I'll take what I can get.

Now remember, she said that there were 2 locations showing in the back and there were NONE out on the floor, so maybe, just maybe, there is another unopened case back there...

Was able to score a Soundwave and a Wheeljack at the Ann Arbor/Saline Target. Both are really nice figures. Soundwave is a cool figure. I love Wheeljack's alt mode and his robot mode is pretty good too. Not sure what other figures they have. asked a guy to go in the back and get a wheeljack and sound wave.

just got my Japanese First edition Wheeljack and Bulkhead from bbts.com today. Just outstanding figures. Especially Bulkhead. Even the dark green looks great in person.
