Plastic crack got the best of me. My wallet opened despite having spent by budget (and then some) on Takara FE's. Picked up Wheeljack in Target this evening.

No luck finding Soundwave though :(

Got Soundwave, FE Starscream and 'Powerizer' Megatron so far. They're all great figures but Soundwave is easily my favourite.

As a bit of forewarning to others though, Soundwave is a fair bit shorter than Starscream (almost a full head shorter). I have no idea if Screamer is an especially large deluxe by today's standards, or if Soundwave is just smaller than average. It must be said though, Soundwave's size puts him in much better scale with Megatron.

Caved and bought Powerizer Prime, Deluxe Wheeljack, Cliffjumper and Bumblebee off of TRU.com. Should be getting it this Saturday. Though the prices were marked up a bit, I've had an itch to buy something and the stores around me only have DOTM stuff.

I think this is the line that will finally draw me away from my scale issues. Each piece looks nice, regardless of accuracy.

I also grabbed a few Bot Shots Monday for son. Not sure if that counts for Prime though.

Picked up my first Prime Haul at Target today. They had them on the shelves, so I guess they aren't waiting until the refresh or w/e its called.

Soundwave still evades me, which is a shame as he is the one I wanted most. I probably could have passed on BB for now, but I figured I mind as well get him now. I'm sure there will be 400 Bumblebee lying around from this line just like all the ROTF and DOTM BB.

I found a decent haul today at Target.

Transformers Prime Cybervere Legion Class Ratchet
Transformers Prime Cybervere Legion Class Vehicon
Transformers Prime Cybervere Legion Class Arcee


$5 each. they had an entire peg dedicated to Bumblebee (8-10), a handful of Cliffjumpers, 2 Vehicons, and only 1 Arcee and Ratchet so a pretty nice find all things considering.

That you are right. The Prime Deluxe RID Wave 1 Assortment includes:
Bumblebee x3
Cliffjumper x2
Wheeljack x2
Soundwave x1

I found this to be true when the nice people at target let me pick what I wanted from a full assortment of Wave 1 Deluxes. Of course I picked up Soundwave.

Maybe that's why many people can't find Soundwave. He's short packed. And you'll see Bumblebee warming up the shelves.

Fe bulkhead just came in. He's pretty cool. And a buddy of mine just called me from toys r us he's gonna grab me a rid cliff jumper, but bc there is only one he is getting a wheeljack for himself. Other than that i got Fe prime last week and picked up Fe bee and arcee when they were released on toysrus.com.

Agreed on the fantastic part!

I got my WJ at Target yesterday along with a Cyberverse Vehicon. I was afraid that there would be a notable difference in scale between these RID guys and the FE deluxes, but WJ looks perfectly in scale next to my FE CJ. I also like the fact that they are using a more rigid plastic for the swords. No more "gravity warp".

What are the new price points on Deluxes and Voyagers? I saw them at my TRU for $15.99 and $26.99 which seemed completely out of bounds. Or am I just deluding myself?

Damn. Just got FE Bumblebee, because I felt bored and in need of a pickmeup.
Only three left in the store.

FE Prime and Megatron are on their way though.

Back on Christmas, i got FE Bumblebee, Arcee and Starscream. Just over the past week, i kinda went a little overboard and got Wheeljack, Cliffjumper, Soundwave, and Voy Optimus.

I'm impressed with the transformations and articulation. Good quality too, nice paint apps and tight joints.

Edit- to Cynic, Target has them for 12.99 and 19.99, TRU is crazy.

I scored Transformers Prime Wheeljack, Bumblebee, Cliffjumper and Optimus.

I really disliked the Powerizer gun, so I borrowed DOTM Topspin's guns and attached them to Optimus for a rather "Weaponizer" look.

Oh, my addiction to Transformers. So I was looking for the Robots in Disguise figures for a while, and on Saturday I went to Toys R Us.(INB4 h8)I finally found them and out of all Deluxes, I chose Bumblebee. So I pay, and after tax it came out $19.04 :BANG_HEAD: If only Transformers weren't so addicting

Just got FE Bulkhead, man he's cool. He's way better than I expected.

Current list:
FE Prime voyager (not opened YET)
FE Bulkhead
FE Starscream
FE Bee
FE Arcee
Soundwave
Wheeljack

I managed to get the two voyagers for double RRP so I guess I did rather well.
