Target Australia is in NO WAY connected to Target US.

Funny how people seem to forget Target Australia importing MP-02 Magnus. ;;)

Anyhoo ... dunno if it's the same thing but SPX has a listing for a "Chrome version test shot Optimus Prime"

Clicky the linky for looky

Sounds like someone just didn't know the official title of the toy.

Spiffy. Anyone know if there are any Target stores in Providence, say, within walking distance of the Botcon hotel?

I gotta say i was dead set against purchasing the Optimus prime in voyager class until now. The exact reasons i didn't like it in the first place was because of the non metallic paint applications and such, it was a more basic version of Prime and without the metallic paint scheme it just looked very cheap. But since Target is getting the exclusive chromium metallic paint version i think i will be buying 2 of them, one to open and display the other for pure collector value..I am shocked though that they didn't apply that paint scheme to the entire figure, the smoke stacks, feet, and mid section should also have the chrome coloring, that would certainly make it complete, maybe this will be done before final production begins.. i hope... but I gotta say the Target exclusives have always been wonderful.. I loved their episode 3 exclusives.. they are sweet, especially the cloaked clone troopers..ofcourse Wal-mart has a tendency to produce exclusives as well, lets wait and see what they decide to do, I'm personally hoping for a Metallic Leader class Prime and Metallic Leader class Megatron..

Did they really? That's pretty cool! I wish some chain around here would do some imports (of course, any Prime or Magnus couldn't be done, due to their killer smoke stacks :lol:

Interesting.

Maybe the robo-vision decoder is something like a pair of 3-D glasses, that you can wear when you go to see the movie and it will have some kind of effect on what you are seeing. It's just a thought...

I'm shaking my finger at my computer screen right now. For shame!

Sweet, I'll just have to snag one of these right out of the box when I see it. If a special version of prime is going to Target then what are Wal-mart and K-mart getting?

I just hope Target can get these onto shelfs on time; June 2 can't come soon enough. Hopefully they'll have an abundance just like last Universe release.

Hmph. Stupid exclusives.

So far Voyager Prime is probably the only movie figure I want, because he looks the most like classic Prime. I wonder if A3U will be stocking this one...
