TRU has two price points for those. $11.99 with the DVD, $9.99 without.

Yeah, I've already earmarked money for the SDCC stuff and MP Prime.

Just give me some more Prime already. Despite popular opinion, I can't wait to pick up Fall of Cybertron Prime and I'm also looking forward to PRID Weaponizer Prime. Anyone know when either of these should be hitting the shelves?

so i picked up the rest of the cyberverse prime line in the last week. bulkhead is still my favorite followed by prime. was a bit disappointed in megatron and starscream but i like how all the energon weapons fit together to make a giant unicronkiller.

I found a TF Prime Voyager Starscream at the 8 & Haggerty Target. The scanner thingie said there were some in the stockroom but I couldn't find anyone who seemed interested in helping me. Starscream is okay. I much prefer the Deluxe version. I really want that Bulkhead. I'll probably end up checking there every day until the scanner says there aren't any more in the back.

Friday for me and my ever-changing crew of ride-alongs.

Ypsi Walmart had 1 RiD Ratchet. And a **** ton of bumblebees and that exclusive wrecker, the orange one.

AA TRU had 1 Arcee and 1 Ratchet.

Heads up for Prime hunters in the area, I picked up the only Bulkhead at the Allen Park Target, left Starscream(I'm content with my FE Deluxe). The new Bot Shots are available as well, I grabbed Mirage and Ratchet.

Happy Hunting.

I picked up the only Bulkhead at the Target at 14 and a half and Hagerty. I did not see Starscream there. There is, however, a deluxe Ratchet and Arcee there as well as assorted figures at Wixom Rd and 12 Mile (Novi) and 9 Mile and Middlebelt (Farmington Hills.) Between the three locations, you could pick-up the entire deluxe line except for the new wave, so if you're looking...

How much were they there?

by **dende5416** » Mon May 14, 2012 6:37 pm

They were $12.99. They had a Ratchet, Arcee and Wheeljack at the 14 and a half and Haggerdy location today. (checking almost the daily, looking for that new wave of Deluxes)

News Credits: 1 · by **ChZuck** » Mon May 14, 2012 7:39 pm

grabbed CV breakdown and left an evac and mirage at the roseville Miejer this evening.

I acquired a Vehicon and Knockout today at the DB TRU, there were 2 Hot Shots left. They also had 1 each Bulkhead and Starscream. This was about 11:30am. Keep in mind the hyperinflated TRU prices...

Knockout sucks, don't bother unless you're a cast collector... very cheap-feeling, piecemeal 'bot mode. Vehicon is totally worth it, solid with a cool transformation.

Happy Hunting.

by **bigwhitey21** » Tue May 15, 2012 10:55 pm

Knockout really aint too bad once you figure out that the instructions are crap. watch some youtube vids to see how to really transform him. my biggest complaint his his paint job. but Rijie is right about Vehicon. hands down my favorite Prime fig (excluding FE Bulkhead).

Went to the Novi Comic Con today. Not much in the way of Transformers. One guy had a first edition Bulkhead but i didn't feel he was worth the $100 asking price. I'll just stick to my Japaneese one. About the only thing I was looking for was first edition Optimus Prime. No luck. But on the way home I stopped at the Flint Toys R Us and picked up the new Prime Starscream and Bulkhead. They only had the 2.
