I'm glad these are hitting more mainstream retail stores. Here in Connecticut they just started showing up in some grocery stores. I found Darksteel and Armored Topspin, but Air Raid has been eluding me.

It is nice for a wave to start on the East coast for once

romo23 wrote:Went to Target and they had atleast 3 of each.. Got Air Raid, Darksteel, and Armored TopSpin for $0.44 ea. They were on sale for $9.99 and I used the Target $5 off mobile coupon and the $5 off coupon I got at the Transformers Tour..

Hey... is the mobile coupon target only? cos we dont have target over here in asia but i felt like attempting to use the coupons

Add this to the list of questionable Hasbro decisions:

Why release a repaint of Top Spin ALREADY, when we still don't have a Deluxe Leadfoot to complete the Wreckers set? Give us ALL the Wreckers before you start repainting them! (And while I'm on the subject, WHERE IS HA TOP SPIN?)

Apparently the deluxe leadfoot that's coming is a Target exclusive (no surprise). What's surprising is that its supposedly a 2-pack ... with ... another repaint of topspin in twintwist colours Oh well, the more wreckers the merrier, i could use those guns, gonna get that when it comes.

I'm gonna predict this Armored Topspin as a shelf warmer already.....

Im quite sure it wont. Since its a) a car b) has guns c) is an autobot, kids will buy it. The regular roadbuster and topspin are all wiped out here. I'm sure kids would be looking for "topspin" and this would be the closest they get, so they but it.

Well....if going by how many normal Topspins are sitting around the targets and walmarts of San Diego I'd say they will be here most likely. I frequent a lot of them too and yep....I can find the normal one at all of them.

I know certain area's have different shelf warmers...but here I can find plenty of him sitting around....

Yeah im sure thats the case for US, but in Asia, there are very few areas that sell toys. You'll think its easy to find tfs in Japan, but it was one of the hardest tast to do! Luckly i went prepared, with specific locations . Oh, and even here, Singapore, EVERY incarnation of deluxe DOTM BB is sold out.

You make posts at the gym?

Occasionally, between sets via the good ole Android.

Now it wakes sense.

'Cuz I was thinking "Not even El Duque is awesome enough to make posts on Seibertron while doing push ups.

Come visit down here in Miami, I know this awesome barbecue pit that serves the best gator burgers and fried frog legs youll ever taste !!!

On topic: Ill get Darksteel and air Raid for the hell of it, but screw the Topspin repaint.

Any of you guys want to pick up Armored Topspin for me cheaply with that manufacturers coupon? I need that one for my wreckers collection and I doubt we will get them here before the coupon runs out. I could PayPal the money no problem.

Dlx Air Raid & Darksteel
all for $5 each plus tax w/ coupon
saw a Armored Topspin but left for someone else

visited 3 (T), 3 WM and 1 TRU and saw these only at the last Target I went to
