Yeah, I thought I read somewhere that they were making the TFs a little smaller.
Come to think of it, the deluxes look smaller as well...
I put all sightings on the sightings page. Most notable for me were:
Leader Class
2 Sentinel Primes - bought mine off of amazon for $30. Gift cards...
1 BB
Voyager Class
1 Megatron - cape looks interesting
2 Ironhides
Seriously, voyager class looks like "deluxe" figures on steroids...
If any one is interested, spotted Generations Blurr.
Any one spot voyager Skyhammer let me know...

Voyager Skyhammer spotted in Walmart! Some 10 to 11 figures were there when i went there today. I picked up one Skyhammer. He is GREAT! The transformation is easy but he is little small like a deluxe class figure.

I am SHOCKWAVE!!!!!!

This is not really a sighting! This is more of a no sighting! The Super Walmart in Oldsmar on Tampa Rd. Store# 2796 As of noon on Friday May 20, 2011 has yet to stock, or even set up an area for, any TF DOTM product other than the Preview Optimus Prime with 3D glasses.

That's a sad story...Maybe you should ask the manager why the frag are they not releasing the toys yet. It's 4 days late!

Re: Florida Transformers sightings
Managed to pickup one Voyager DOTM Shockwave at a Walmart near Fleming Island. Also found and left a Voyager Shockwave and a Skyhammer at my local Gainesville Walmart. My local Target, Walmart, and Toys R Us have all of the Wave 1 Deluxes, Leaders, and Voyagers. No sign yet of any of the last batch of Generations (Warpath, Wheeljack, Thundercracker).
Hoping to find Wave 2 of the full-sized Human Alliances Figures soon - not really into the Bumblebee and Skids one currently out.

Starting to see wave 3 DOTM in the Orlando/Altamonte Springs area...
3 Leader Class Ironhide @ TRU off of SR50 next to Fashion Square Mall... actually looks pretty darn good... Gun could be bigger though...
Deluxe Thundercracker (actually picked this one up last weekend @ TRU near Millenia area) also spotted at Walmart on SR 434 across from Costco.
BTW, has anyone seen RTS Voyager Lugnut yet?

I'm also still looking for RtS Deep Dive and any other RtS figures that people have reported finding at discount stores. I went to both a Ross and a Big Lots today, but no luck.
If anyone finds Deep Dive or Lugnut or Windcharger somewhere within the Tampa or Lutz area, let me know, please and thank you.

Found a RTS Legends Trailcutter and a Opened Wreckgar at the TJ Maxx on Hillsborough ave in Tampa. They had a few G2 Optimus and Bumblebee Deluxes as well that I left behind. Ross on Hillsborough and Memorial had nothing but ROTF Brawn and Ratchet and HFTD Ironhide and Terradive. Marshalls in Britton plaza had Scout class Oilpan and Insecticon. There was a Leader class Starscream at Marshalls on Waters and Dale Mabry and a few scout class HTFD figures as well.

Eh, he's okay, I guess. I only got him becuase the Toys 'R' Us nextdoor had one Sea Spray left. Turns out the compatiblity between the two isn't all that great.Primeultimus wrote:Sabrblade wrote:I picked up Breacher from the TJ Maxx in Wesley Chapel.Primeultimus wrote:Do not waste your time at any TJ Maxx or Ross in Tampa.

Re: Florida Transformers sightings
Walmart in Homestead has about 6-8 generations Wheeljack, and Warpath. and a few Thundercrackers I got 4 today.4 is a lot but I was tempted to clear them out to make customs.
Marshalls in homestead has 1 Pay Load and 1 sea spray.
If you also like G.I.Joes Walmart also has about 3-4 of each of the toys in the steel Brigade, Junglebat wave.
Ross on Campbell drive didn't have anything good except 1 lugnutt, I got it but am willing to sell the one I got at the flea market for $12, that's what I payed. But I am going out of town and wont be back till next Thursday.

Seeing that many means they are still being produced and restocked. I bet any time this week or next they will be everywhere.
