Are a lot of people finding Hound, Cyclonus, and Inferno IN stores???

I'd check the sightings forum, but we all know it's not 100% up to date.

I live and Dayton Ohio and I have yet to see them around here ( check a handful of stores every few days)...But I have seen the new Legends so hopefully the deluxe and voyagers are on their way...

Uhh...wait a second. Which is it? Have you seen the new Universe figures at retail, or not? You're not making sense here...

Ah well...I'll just have to wait til he pops up again...

So yeah...um. WTF?

And to answer the question in general...

Cheetor, Cyclonus, and Hound have been released to Target and quickly sold out. However, they haven't hit saturation yet, so we have a little while before everyone gets a chance.

Inferno has just now started showing up in stores.

I picked up Cyclonus last week in Wal-Mart. The Nightstick he came with is black/dark blue, not gray like in the picture in the news posting. Both Cyclonus and Nightstick are really great figures. They also had Hound, Cheetor and the new Starscream.

I didn't see any new Voyagers or bigger. I had enough money on me for two deluxes (at 7.77 each still at WalMart) so I got Cyclonus and Galvatron--they go great together. While Galvatron looks great in each mode, his transformation is a bit annoying--whereas Cyclonus' transformation is quite fun (as is Nightstick's for that matter!)

I am just picking up a select few of the classics (basically if I really like the character and the look of the toy), but I may need to splurge on universe Unicron--he might might go nicely with Cyclonus and Galvatron.

JUST WENT TO WAL-MART AND COPPED ME A CYCLONUS AND HOUND. TOO BAD THERE WERE NO STARSCREAMS HAVENNT OPENED HOUND YET, BUT I LOVE THE WAY CYCLONUS TRANSFORMS, VERY ACCURATE TO THE G1 MOVIE ALTHOUGH THEY FOOL YOU CAUSE ALL THAT CHROME IN THE PICS IS REALLY GREY...STILL WELL WORTH THE $7.77 I GOT HIM ON SALE FOR !!! NOW WE NEED A SCORUGE TO HAVE THE COMPLETE SET...

I GOT THE LAST CYCLONUS BUT THERE WERE PLENTY OF CHEETORS LEFT (HASBRO TAKE A HINT)

PEACE

Forgive me for being unclear...What I was trying to say, in regards to whether or not I've seen the new figures in the stores, is that I've been checking my local stores frequently and I HAVE seen the new LEGENDS figures but have NOT seen any of the new deluxe or voyager figures yet...

With the exception of Inferno...And what I was saying about THAT is I actually saw Universe Inferno at TRU a couple months ago...And yes, I realize how that sounds but it's true...I didn't even think much of it until I began to get the impression from poking around here that Inferno hadn't actually been released yet...I don't know how he came to be on the shelf at Toys R Us so far ahead of schedule, and it's the ONLY once I've seen, but I'm kicking myself for not buying it at the time...

AWESOME!

I got my Cyclonus Saturday, but the Inferno has not shown up yet.

It'll be just like Christmas ... Oh WAIT, it IS Christmas

My Inferno showed up today! Woot!

Inferno today, Cyclonus yesterday, and Christmas in two days. What a haul I'm going to end up with by the end of the week!

Received Inferno today, super sweet!

I got my Inferno, Hound, and Starscream yesterday in the mail. Inferno is all kinds of win!!!!
