Stopped @ Target after work about 5:40p.m., what a disappointment! Selection of deluxes sucked--4 Bees (bought 2) 1 Starscream, 2 Jolts, Barricade, Sideswipe. Had 3 Voyager OP, 3 Ironhide, 2 Megatron (bought 1). 3 Leader SP, 3 BB, I'm riding the fence on these two figures.

Then I went to a K-Mart: no DOTM at all, WTF?!

Might swing by Wal*Mart in morning to see what they have left. Maybe TRU after work tomorrow too.

Leader Sentinel Prime
Voyager Sky Hammer
Scout Icepick

no Shockwave yet, yet

Man, I really wanted Sky Hammer, but just couldn't bring myself to buy 3 voyagers. :-/

Maybe next paycheck.

Leader: Bee and Sentinel
Voyager: Optimus and Megatron

All the Walmarts around me are doing a reset, so they didn't have anything up.

Im gonna post it here again since its the "official" haul topic:

Voy Megs - Awesome (Bummber though one part of the rubber was spoilt when I opened it)

Dlx Crankcase - Nice (The dreads are a real pain to keep, have them hanging down in vehicle mode, yea the fingers on mine are also cut)

Voy OP w/ Trailer(Takara - starting to grow on it, much better than hasbro Voy OP, better deco, nicer mechtech(IMO) and the trailer's just awesome, have hftd Battleblade BB and crankcase inside of it)

I picked up Deluxe Crankcase and Voyager Megatron as my first choices, and I can say I like both of them. I'm surprised at how smaller the voyagers have gotten, but I'm not complaining, especially with the smaller price tag.
I decided to keep my DOTM selection small, compared to ROTF, so once I get Skyhammer and Shockwave, I'll be finished.

Went to Oregon, OH Wal*Mart no DOTM except preview OP, employee said they "might" put some out on Wednesday.

Went to Oregon Meijer: got Leader BB, Deluxes Roadbuster and Crankcase. The very nice clerk was just putting DOTM out. I watched her put the wave 1 voyagers out, no wave 2, and some smaller HAs, CVs. She even showed me where the deluxes were in an aisle. She realized I was a collector, especially when I told I have an original '84 OP.

My biggest bich is why are there so many new Cars 2 toys? Everybody gripes about all the versions of BB and OP we get, but kids don't need 1000 Lightning McQueens!!!

My turn! Picked these up just now as part of my Birthday month:

Deluxe Starscream
Voyager Optimus Prime

It seems Starscream is a favourite, everywhere I went to only 1 store him after I missed out on him the first time. Same goes for Optimus, but at least he's more plentiful. He was just calling out to me, I had to get him. That won't stop me from getting the Japanese version with the Trailer though

I got Deluxe Bumblebee. At first, it seemed like that'd be all I would get. However, I went back to the same store a second time that day and also got Cyberverse Ironhide and Bumblebee. I later ordered Cyberverse Ratchet from the TRU website. When he arrives,I'll have a complete team of Legends-scale 2007 movie autobots.

Picked up CV Blackout, Powerglide(WOW) and Crowbar. Why are there so many Decepticons posing as authority figures (Barricade, Crankcase and Crowbar)?

News Credits: 2 · by **I_AM... MEGATRON!** » Tue May 17, 2011 4:48 pm

went to 2 different targets and my local walmart...no shockwave :sad:

Just need to get Shockwave, Sentinel, and maybe starscream and deluxe bumblebee, and then I'm done with DOTM until the second big wave comes this summer...

Oh and anyone else seeing a TON of Leader Bumblebees going unsold? I think we've got our first shelfwarmer for the line :lol:

That'd be because nobody wants to spend $40 for that character when they can get the same character for $12.

This, people, is my soul idea for Ultimate and Leader Bumblebees.
