I've been to a few Targets that still show aftermath since DOTM figures release. With quite a few pegs either empty or near empty is it simply because each store only got their amount to start and that is it or something else...why the restock delay? :VEHI:

I got Deluxe Mechtech Jolt at Walmart this morning! He's really nice, waaaay better than the ROTF version.

by **CitadelofRancor** » Sun May 22, 2011 2:09 pm

I picked up Skyhammer on Friday, and I've been thinking. Is it just me or would a pair of swords really fit this character? I love the mechtech, but it just doesn't seem to work well as a blade wherever you peg it. If he had a pair of sabre type swords that weren't longer than BW Optimus Primal's, I think it would be awesome. If they folded in half you could peg them in the other 5mm ports on his wings as another missle pod type thing or even attached mini guns, but I think the best way would be to have them attach to the underside of the tail boom in vehicle mode

And I can't find deluxe Topspin for the life of me! It's driving me nuts!

He's shortpacked, only one per case I believe. Try going to stores early.

Slag! I'm screwed then. I don't have time to get to the stores early...or get to them regularly even.

SHOCKWAVE; light piping for his eye is awesome, he's standing about a foot in front of my monitor, the eye is "glowing". Really like how the arm cannon fits and covers the forearm area. Dig the ribs too.

Looks like you got a whole load of them. Might I ask how much you paid for all of that?

Got back from the store with Commander class Powerglide and Ironhide and Legends Class Ratchet.

Well, after 1 week since the release of the DOTM toys, I finally found Shockwave.
This morning I called 2 Targets, 1 TRU and went to 1 Wal*Mart; which had a lot of figures.
Was a little disappointed, but the last store I went to, Toys R Us, had 1 in stock. I was lucky enough to find a team member there who actually knew what I was talking about

- so he was nice enough to go to the back room to look for me.

It's a great figure, and it is 1 per case (the others were Skyhammer, Prime and another figure which I forgot.) I'm happy as a pig in *****!

So here's mine (proof) :grin:

DOTM Roadbuster and Cyberverse Leadfoot. Epic.

Finally got me a Shockwave. He's pretty good. His eye looks less like a clown nose in person :o)

As far as Cybertronian alt-modes go, it's okay but I liked the Fallen's and Megatron's (from both movies) and even Soundwave's better. His robot mode is win, the only issue being the tube could be a little longer.

The tube is my only complaint, other wise, he's an awesome figure.

The hose? It's supposed to be a homage to G1, AND in G1 he had the hose. In the movie he has the hose. What's wrong with it?

On mine, it pulls out when you move his arm.

You can just detach it from the back.
