I found several Trailcutters today at a Target in Smyrna. I also saw all of the Wave 2 Deluxes at the Walmart as well (but I bought the only Smokescreen) at the $12.97 reduced price. Again, there seems to be pretty good distribution of the Beast Hunter lines. Hopefully they keep this up!

Made my normal rounds today. Mall of GA Ross, Marshals, and TJMaxx had nothing to report. TRU had the same stuff as last week. Target didn't have much new. Walmart still had several FOC Grimlocks and the Autobot wave 2 cassettes I found last week were completely gone. Hamilton mill walmart didn't have anything new to report.

I saw 1 smokescreen yesterday at Target at the intersection of Highway 92 and Hardscrabble in Roswell. Only about a 20 minute drive from that Woodstock Target you posted about earlier.

I just came from the Target on Roswell Road at the Prado (next to the Taco Mac there). They had 2 Smokescreens, 2 Ripclaws, 2 Bulkheads and 1 Starscream. They also had 1 Trailcutter and 1 Hardshell, but I bought the Hardshell!

This should be pretty close to you too. Good luck to everybody! I've had pretty good luck so far.

I have Ripclaw and think what you're seeing is just the "swirl" paint job most of the BH deluxes have. It's sort of a yellowy paint that is mixed in with her green. This will be different on every figure, but I don't think it looks bad though. It kind of gives a "battled hardened" look. Just a heads up in case you didn't know. All of them will have that yellow, it just may not be as prominent on some figures.

I'm going to have to look at them better. It looked like smeared paint and I immediately put both down. Figured it was a bad lot. The Figure looked amazing though! Thanks for the info!

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're just seeing the swirly paint. BH Wheeljack, Bulkhead, Ripclaw and Bumblebee have this "paint gimmick." Others might have it to but I don't have them (except Smokescreen...no swirls there). If it looks like mine (see attached photo below)then it's fine. Again, each one will be different but it is supposed to be that way.

The Target in Columbus, GA has received some Wave 2 for TF:Prime Beast Hunters. A lot of Starscreams, I took the last Ripclaw, and they had one more Smokescreen left.

TRU last Saturday had nothing to note, either Target, Wal Mart, or both on Buford Drive had some BH wave 2. I know I saw Bulkhead. For anybody interested in Power Rangers, by the by, that Wal Mart had a TON of 3.5" Megaforce figures. I don't know if anybody here is into that, but I'm looking for a super shortpacked figure for a friend so I checked.
I checked the Snellville Wal Mart last night: all of wave 2, at least 2 of each non-Predacon and one Ripclaw which is now mine. As I was in a hurry I didn't think to check the Cyberverse section.

I was out at the Mall of GA area today. Target was wiped out of BH deluxes. Only thing new I saw was 1 lone Ripclaw at Walmart on buford drive/985. Didn't pick it up. I did notice the yellow on her green that yall had mentioned last week. It was all over here and looks intentional to me.

Yeah, mine is mixed-color as well. Dunno how well you can see it, but here's a pic.
https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos- ... 4158_n.jpg
It's intentional, alright. It's present on all the BH figs. This isn't just an errant batch of the wrong plastic that got mixed in with the mold, this is deliberate.

Ok, I just snagged Ripclaw deluxe for 7.50!!!!

Here is how I did it...

Like I said above, Target has the BH transformers currently on sale for 10 dollars.

I took advantage of that AND by using this 3 dollar coupon http://coupons.target.com/toys-coupons and POW! ...seven dollars and some change at Target. Coupon does not expire until 4/21 I think.

Also, there is a coupon for 2 dollars off Kreo Combiners which also can be found at Target for 10.99.

Yeah...im hoping when I crack mine open that its something topical that can come off. I really love the mold. I may just consider repainting her as Serkeet from Rage of the Dinobots.

Target in Newnan (20 minutes south of the airport off of 85, less than a mile off the exit)had pegs full of BH deluxes tonight. Might be worth the trip at 10 dollars a pop.

The color streaks are part of the plastic, they're not paint apps. Nothing short of painting over them, using stickers, or smelting the part down will remove them. It is literally yellow plastic mixed into the green plastic poured into the mold. Or black, for the wings.

Holy hell, $7.50 deluxes? I wish I'd known about that coupon yesterday, I would've made a special trip to the MOGA for that Ripclaw. $13.75 with tax at Wal Mart was nice, but I'm on a tight budget, I could've used that extra few bucks of savings. Ah well.

Lawrenceville Wal Mart on Collins Hill Road off 316 had 2 Voyager Shockwaves and 2 Deluxe Ripclaws. I purchased one Shockwave, and left the other on the shelf. His mates were two Predakings and an Optimus Prime.
