Heh. I should have made a new thread instead of posting in one of the GDO threads this morning! :lol:

Grabbed these this morning online. Look forward to the legends and voyagers hitting as well.

I updated the sightings section to include listings for all of these figures as well as the TRU Masterpiece exclusives, and added the product images as well for these items. Happy hunting my friends!

Too bad they dont have the voyagers listed. I want Laserbeak and maybe Wheelie but that is not enough for free shipping. I want to snag a couple of the voyagers. Hopefully I will find them in store.

I'm lucky to have gotten most of the figures off of TRU's website, except for Springer and Wheelie. For those of you who do happen to find these at your local stores: does it look like shops are getting 1/2 cases of figures or maybe multiple? I guess the main issue will be getting Wheelie since he's short-packed. Wonder if the FE Prime releases will be widely available or not.

TRU sure is getting the lion's share of exclusives recently (not that it wasn't known beforehand, just that the release dates were vague and/or pushed back).

They removed the listing for Masterpiece OP.

is Wheelie short-packed? I thought I heard something somewhere about them changing it to be two per pack, not sure if it's true

The case that went to Asia has Wheelie short-packed, but the TRU cases have them all even - 2 per case each.

Yea that's what I thought.

Awesome!

I was wondering when a topic was going to be posted. Luckily (Well the only one I could afford at the timde) I had picked up a Laserbeak at my local TRU. I'm sadly going to have to buy a second one tomorrow if they still have them because the left wing's insignia is really messed up.

My local TRU got the scouts, but no deluxes :sad:

I just decided to pick one up on ebay for 31 bucks...damn scalpers. Besides, Ive gotten tired of running back and forth looking for him...

stumbled on a Wheelie and Swerve yesterday, not expecting anything
Springer and Sandstorm are the only others i am keeping an eye out for

News Credits: 12 · Fri Sep 28, 2012 10:57 am

I stupidly ordered a case from Japan before they announced these were coming to TRU. And I got a Wheelie with two right feet! If I can find one at TRU I'll get a replacement.

Hmmm... Hoist and Bluestreak are available but no Motorbreath or Thundercracker, and certainly no Voyagers.

Picked up Laserbeak. He's pretty cool, if a bit fiddly. Also, his hip ball joints are a touch loose and there are a few minorish QC issues with the paint.

grabbed a CJumper today
still on the hunt for Springer

News Credits: 16 · Thu Oct 04, 2012 10:18 pm

Mine arrived today. A few of us in Florida got our shipments in with poorly packed boxes that came with one or two pieces of deflated air cushion bags. My carded figures came out decently well considering that, but others have said their toys' packaging was pretty much destroyed. Anyone else experiencing this?

Btw, I'm really impressed with Springer. That Tomahawk mold kicks serious ass. I know it's not the top of everyone's wishlists, but right now, he's my favorite of GDO deluxes.

Went to TRU and they had finally put some in stock. Managed to get a buddy of mine the only Wheelie they had. Plenty of the others there. Springer did turn out to look pretty freakin sweet, and so did CJ, but I had to hold back for the moment, plus they actually had a Prime Dreadwing there........snagged him instead.

EDIT* While I was there, I saw at least 4 cases of DOTM deluxe figure cases sitting on top of their shelves. I guess they're gonna put them out for the holidays.......but really, they still have THAT many left? Geez

Hey LOST, awesome picture!

I got the GDO LEgends today and my Motorbreath has a Bluestreak card. Like the bubble was attached to the wrong backing card. Any idea if this is a common thing, or have I somehow stumbled upon a million dollar packaging error?

I know that's not the case but a guy can dream...
