Sorta like this one?

That one is from ROTF, isn't it? I should've clarified that meant it would've been nice if they made a DOTM Leader Class OP, but instead only made Sentinel, Bumble Bee, and Iron Hide. But then, there is the "Ultra" OP w/Trailer, but that's not what I'm after.

What's wrong with the ROTF version? It was sitting on shelves forever. I think you can still find him at Fry's and at some Kmart stores. In fact, I think the Fry's near me had about 2 or 3 of these as recent as May 16th when I was hunting for DOTM toys.

The case breakdown for this Target exclusive assortment is: 4x Bumblebee

Really? 4 Bumblebee's a case?!?!?!?! Wow cuz there's not enough Bumblebee's out there. And the only one worth a damn(Space Case) is 1 per case. No wonder there's no other TFs on the shelves, they're full of crappy Bumblebee repaints that Hasbro keeps cramming down our throats.

Or rather the retailers keep cramming down our throats. Hasbro just makes the toys, the large retailers often have a say in (or rather demand) how many well known characters are in a case. Like it or not, Bumblebee sells. Notice Skids and Mudflap were pegsitters, but Bumblebee never is (with the exception of HFTD Special Ops Bumblebee). Even HFTD Deluxe Bumblebee flew off the shelves at most stores.

Not out my way, my friend. Just was in the Walmart and Target out in Romeoville this morning on the way home from work. Was tryin to find dlx. Laserbeak, and shelves clogged with BB. Even saw a couple of ROTF and the HFTD Battle Blade BBs with clearance tags on the shelf. I understand he's a popular character, but this is too much. It's no wonder no new toys are hitting the shelves. Why would these stores wanna restock when the million BBs on the shelf aren't selling(again, at least out my way).

There's nothing wrong with the ROTF version. I haven't been able to find one locally at Walmart or Target. I recently noticed that Hasbro made a Leader class Bumble Bee, Iron Hide, and Sentinel. I hoped that they also made a new Leader class OP, but apparently, they didn't, and I guess if they didn't make leader class versions of those others for ROTF, that's why they made them and not OP. I did however find the Takara Voyager class with Trailer. That's too expensive in comparison to other versions without trailer, that some manufacturer's have made trailers for. There are versions of Ultra Magnus and MP Optimus that actually costs less than the Takara Voyager with trailer.

Managed to get a Spacecase today. Now I'm waiting for HA Leadfoot......

Nice. Way to go on that Spacecase acquisition.

I think I'm going to have to get that Black Jazz. Target shopping trip soon.

heres an idea hasbro, most of the Generation/RTS/2010 figures didnt make it to where i live...soooooooooo

What's the name of the Generations white Mustang? I can't remember. I saw that one at Walmart but the package was opened, so I didn't get it. Didn't know if weapons or attachments were missing or not.

Uh… Maybe you are talking about Drift?

YES!!! That's him!! Package was open. Going to have to find that one at Target.

It's a really nice mold. Go ahead and pick up Blurr if you find him too. A lot of my local stores still have both figures warming the shelves.

Copy that!

I wish they'd make a new Jazz mold. Its like the Voyager Ratchet mold, every movie line there it is. Really HA Jazz is the only movie Jazz you need. The Deluxe is ok..but ehhh, his legs bother me for whatever reason. I know Jazz died and there's really no reason to make a new mold of him, but I hope they do at some point.

wow. that paint job on BEE is kinda over the top. Looks like Sam parked him in the wrong neighborhood for a couple hours, and came back to find he'd been graffiti'd all over.

Sounds like the most desired bot of the bunch is short packed. Go figure.

Thanks for the code! I just went over to target and asked them to check the code on there price gun and the guy came out with a box and I was able to pick up Space Case and Arcee befire they even had them on the shevles. I guess they just leave them in the stockroom until they feel like putting them out or have shelf space?

Found them out at two Targets in North County San Diego today.

The first only had a single Bumblebee hanging with the rest of the DOTM toys.
The second one had multiples of everybody on a check-out stand end-cap.

I picked up Space Case, Arcee, and Jazz.

Even with the disappointing case breakdown, I suspect none of these will be all that hard to come by once more stores have put them out. Target usually keeps a pretty good supply of their exclusives on hand.

I will get all of them,but think about bumblebee, but he comes with a comic. I have to sell most of my bumblebees anyway. Whatever, bee will be my last buy if I get him. Jazz looks epic , Arcee epic , Space case epic , bumblebee

I just persisted with the staff at a local Target with the DCPI in this thread and they found one. There will be a Space Case waiting for me at customer service.

Nice. Who is that on the far left?

Steeljaw, if you were talking to me and mean the dog transformer Leadfoot has.

Yes. What does SteelJaw transform into?

He folds up into a missle launcher.
