I was in Family Dollar the other day getting a Jazz spychanger and damn if they didn't have Galaxy Force Optimus Prime and Metroplex. $19.99
Pissed me off that I didn't have the extra $20.00 to get one. But keep your eyes out they may have a Galvatron in some stores.

Yeah I've been seeing them both in FD for about a month now. There's usually not in the toy aisle, *don't know why*, I found them in the automotive section last time.

When you look, look on the top of the shelves. Thats where I found them. And I didn't realize that there was a post pertaining to this. Sorry.

Are these *actual* GF toys, or KO's? I'm guessing KO's- survey says-!

No these are the Real Cybertron toys. It is the GF repaint of Optimus, and Metroplex. Real deal.

They are actual GF toys. This is where I got my GF Optimus Prime, and yes ... he was $20. :grin:

I've been checking back at 3 different family dollars for more of them, but no luck.

Don't worry about it your only human

Highly doubtful that you'll get galvatron since Metroplex and GF Prime were sent to FD when Hasbro had excess stock. Some people were hoping for Primus but I think Walmart gobbled up the extra stock during the drought so you'll have to amazon the Primus or wait for Walmart Clearance.

Indeed, also Metro and GF Prime were the last 2 leader figs made I read somewhere so thats why FD mostly got those 2 and no Galvatron since he's epic.

And to hip something prime. No K.O.s research before branding something with a ko, or else Hasbro gets real mad and makes the paint jobs even crappier.
