Just went to TRU and nothing, I asked a worker about Hasbro releasing them early and he said they didn't even get a shipment in yet. That TRU had about 60 or so Protoforms and still had 3 CYB Metroplex and 15 TIT 6" Soundwaves clogging space. The Metro's have been there for months you'd think they'd mark them down by now. :MAD:

Still had tons of classics voyagers and deluxes too. Not to mention 20 BW Megatron Optimus two packs and 10 or so CLA Megatron Optimus two packs.

Hey TRU! MARK DOWN AND ROLLLLLLLLL OUT!!!!! :MAD:

Target on the other hand was bone dry yesterday. About 20 protoforms and a single CLA Mirage...thats IT. And forget K-B...not a single Transformer. :shock:

I think they're US only, but the fact remains...NEW TRAILER!

Saw some in Boston, huh Sideswipe?...Hmmm, I might have to take a trip up there this weekend and see what I can find.

Granted I'm only looking for Wreckage. (10 dollar toy, 20 dollar gas...Hmmm, I definitely have my priorities straight)

my local TRU had protoforms a few days ago wonder if they have them now

I just stopped by TRU and Wal-Mart today after hearing the news. Nothing new at Wal-Mart. TRU was stocking shelves and I noticed a box of TFs in the cart. It turns out they were just another box of Classics figs. I asked the guy stocking the toys (I think he was the manager) and he said that there would be no new TFs for a couple of weeks still. To me, this translates that my TRU won't be putting them out until June 2.

With Friday being payday for me I think Wreckage, Brawl, Barricade, Bumblebee and maybe Jazz are mine! :grin:

I'd be shocked to see any stores around here (Lansing, MI) to stock any of these before June 2nd. I'm going to do my best to aquire them anyway

by **microclone** » Tue May 15, 2007 3:49 pm

hmm, i wonder why the 2 protoforms are clogging the shelves??? maybe because kids dont know what they are and collectors see them as OK if not totally average. If those damn fine classics are warming pegs then those thigs are going to be melting them. I did see classics OP at target today for $10.

Figures... After I blow thirty bucks on Spider-Man toys so i won't go nuts while waiting for new TFs. Man, I feel like an idiot. I don't get paid 'til Friday of next week.

Ah well, that's still before June 2nd, so I guess this is good news.

Hey are you saying they have some in TRU and walmarts in missouri already? I am in Kansas City Missouri and my walmart still carries a load of classics and protoforms only.
Anyone sees any deluxe figures in missouri please let me know...I need to snatch me a Wreckage.

Very clever move, keep the momentum going and get people to buy the figures before they see the movie, which may or may not make them not want to get the figures...

sweet. maybe ill go tomorrow.

Exactly. I'll be picking up Jazz and Bonecrusher simply because I think they look cool. But I'm no shelling out my hard-earned cash on the big "leader" toys until I see the film.

I don't have to worry, the movie toys will be on shelves for a long, long time after the film has run its course....

Dam, that means the wont ship in my area till Friday the soonest, and still I doubt they'll be here then.

I'm only complaining because tomorrows my birthday and I was hoping to splurge when the rumor about the 6/2 street date being lifted was anounced. Granted I can always do so later and call it belated, but thats never the same.

im also going to wait for a sale. hopefully that wont be soon.

Based on a reported sighting at a different location on TFW05 last week, I went to the Boscov's dept store in Lancaster, PA, and found two Jazz and one Brawl. When I left they had one Jazz left.

They are out.

I found a Brawl at my local Target tonight! :DANCE:

That's not all! I also found all 6 Real Gear Figures, Cyber Stompers, the Starscream and Optimus blasters, plushies, FAB, and the voice changer helmet at K-Mart!!! I tried buying the RG figures, but when I took them to the register they rang up as "do not sell until 6/1." So, I didn't get them. However, I had no trouble getting the voice changer helmet and the 2 plushies! :DANCE:

NICE! I have been looking for those plushies for weeks! How big are they?

That voice change helmet looks nice too!

The plushies stand at about 10 inches each in robot mode. They're both pretty cool!

I can't get enough of the helmet! It just looks so friggin' cool! I scared the crap out of my dog when I was wearing it and talking through it! :lol:

It also has the original transforming sound as a feature, which I found nice. Very impressive overall and highly recommended! ;)^
