Yes, Just make sure you have the package! they'll take it without a receipt, but only give you a gift card or even swap.

Wal*Mart Movie Exclusive: BB (yellow w/ black center stripe) and Sideswipe(blue/yellow/white)

Voyager Prime (finally caved and hate to admit I kinda really dig it), deluxe: Skids, Lazerbeak, Jolt, Crankcase, Roadbuster, and Topspin.

Got Moony Prime with Comettor and Shockwave about a week ago, looking at DOTM voyager next to Shockwave in the store I really didn't think it looked right at all so I'm glad I went with the two pack to have vs. my Shockwave(who is awesome)!!!

just bought me a target exclusive voyager starscream at my local target store

I am the proud owner of a Space Case!! It was the one and only they had at this Target. They didn't have any of the other exculsive deluxe figs. I think the scaplers (sp?) may have gotten to them. I ck this Target like every couple of days and this was my 1st find.

Just got Space Case, Hatchet and Laserbeak.

I drove all over the city looking for Leader Ironhide and Space Case. Both found on an accident. I odered Ironhide for store pickup at Kmart the night before. Of course when I picked him up it was the wrong Leader. Sentinel Prime!!(which I have) They didn't have him instock so Kmart gave me a refund. Going in to the 11th store of the day there he was at a DOTM display near the entrance in another Kmart. Didn't even make it to the toy section. I couldn't take my wallet out fast enough!(There is a Transformers God) Thought I try my luck one more time and stop at a Target on my way home. Nothing new in the toy section. As I was leaving I grabbed some gum at the counter and saw a display of DOTM Exclusives with one Space Case. I couldn't take my wallet out fast enough. I know I wasted $40 in gas looking for these guys but it was worth it. Today was GLORIOUS!

Deluxe Skids, Mudflap, and Voyager Firburst Optimus Prime.

Old news, but just posting for the heck of it--I caved and bought both DMK kits. And got news that my pre-ordered Jetwings OP has arrived. Complete wallet massacre.

Over the past week I've succumbed to DotM toy fever and picked up several toys. Just one after the other, Hasbro has lured me back into the movie line.

Voyager OP - It's not the best movie OP but not the worst. The proportions are odd and the kibble is a bit much(I think that the arm kibble should have been avoided by the designers) but I somehow really enjoy this toy. It has a chunky quality to it, it's hefty and solid. It feels like a proper toy that is meant to be played around with. The transformation design of the legs is quite neat and I do like how this OP goes from alt to bot mode and vice versa. The MechTech weapon is quite cool and I may have to give it to DotM Voyager Megatron, which I don't have yet, so Megs can have a more fusion cannon styled weapon.

Deluxe Bumblebee - I'm not a big fan of the Bayverse BB design(I don't hate it but I don't love it either) and I've only found a few movie BB toys that I liked enough to buy. Battle Blade BB was one and this is another. I really like how it has a simpler transformation design than BB BB but it still possesses a decent level of complexity. However, transforming it is quick, fun, and satisfying. The MechTech weapon is pretty cool in both modes.

Nitro Bumblebee - Another movie BB that I've bought and enjoyed. I like how this iteration of BB is chunkier and stockier. I'm planning on buying another Nitro BB so I can use it to make a custom movie Cliffjumper.

Voyager Ironhide - My favourite DotM toy so far. I think it's the best looking movie Ironhide from all angles. The legs are a bit long and that's one strike against its likeness to the CG model but its knees allows a bit of folding back/over to make the legs somewhat shorter. The alt mode suffers from a compromised truck bed section but that's because of the improved lower leg transformation, which I think is very nicely done. The improved articulation at the legs is wonderful and I, unlike many others, don't think the unorthodox arm joint design is a bad thing. I've not had any problems posing the figure in the way I want. This Ironhide toy is sort of my MechTech weapons array as I like to load up the toy with a few MT weapons for display.

Cyberverse Commander Ironhide - I don't love this toy as some others do but it's a nice Legends-ish sized Ironhide. I do like the weapon accessories it comes with. I think the bot mode looks good, though its shoulders are awkwardly placed.

Deluxe Ratchet - My first and only movie Ratchet to so far. I love it. Like every other DotM toy I have at this point, I love how its transformation design is simplified compared to previous movie line toys but it still has a good degree of complexity for a satisfying transformation experience. The MechTech weapon for this is oddly fun for me. I just love how the blade spins for a bit when the gimmick is activated.

Commander Hatchet - I haven't unpackaged it yet but it's a cool looking toy and has a surprising heft for a small figure. I can't wait to play around with it.

Walmart Exclusive Deluxe Sideswipe - This is a repaint of the HFtD Sidearm Sideswipe but it's a cool toy. I prefer this version of Sideswipe over the original TFTM Deluxe toy. The colour scheme is garish, that's undeniable, but it works for me. I also have Alternators Smokescreen, which has the same colour scheme, and the colours worked for that figure. I love how the toy is covered with TF references.

Walmart Exclusive Voyager Optimus Prime with Comettor - Another repaint, this time of HFtD Voyager Battle Blades Optimus Prime(with hooks instead of blades) and TFTM Deluxe Landmine. These toys are still in the box. I don't have any hands-on experience with this mold of Voyager OP but it looks great and everyone has said it's a great toy and representation of movie OP. I like its darker grey plastic, though I do find the space deco kind of silly. I have Deluxe Landmine and love the figure so I know I'll love Comettor.

Scored huge at Target and Walmart tonight...

Leader Class Ironhide
HA Roadbuster
Deluxe Space Case x2
Deluxe Arcee x2
Commander Blackout

Picked up Delux Thundercracker and BHA Thunderhead today from Argos.

I got Barricade and Walmart Exclusive BB (aka Fanwank BB). Barricade is nice, although his transformation to care mode is a little annoying for me (particularly sliding the legs in). I actually like his MechTech though.

I got BB since I missed out on this mold as BB for the first movie (I got Cliffjumper) and his deco was just too good to pass up. I like how the shoulder pads are now screwed on as my Cliffjumper's pads constantly fall off.

I've gotten Ultimate OP.

And 2 sets of transformers trading cards.

Just picked up Jetwings OP from the store. He's got one MASSIVE box!

Space case!

I hadn't been able to find him. Always one step behind someone else cause I always manage to find the new sets out and all the other deluxes from that box out except this guy.

My wife needed to run to a friends and I drove her and stopped by this target way next to her house (which I didn't know was there) and there he was, tucked in behind all the other TF's.

picked up the target exclusive jazz today and i must say he's much cooler than i expected.

DotM Space Case & Jazz

thanks mods for deleting my post
didnt see what was wrong with it. said my hauls. and asked blurz if there was any spoilers

Space Case, awesome figure, really dig this guy!!!!!

So, on the way to work this afternoon I decided to pull into the local Target. I was hoping to score 1 or 2 deluxe Cyberfire BBs, but no such luck. Instead I was forced to grab 1 of the 2 Ultimate OPs they had on the shelf!

Wen't shopping with the girlfriend today and she bought me/us voyager Skyhammer and he was only £16.99.

Deluxe Topspin, which makes 2/3 Wreckers for me. Now I just need Deluxe Leadfoot to be released.

Got Space Case here, and I love it. It fixes everything that put me off about the Terradive mold and just feels so sleek and badass. I highly recommend this one.

Before that, got Shockwave. Was surprisingly easy to modify his arm to have the cannon on the proper side (hint: carve with an exacto on the lower expansion socket on his left arm), and really pleased with how well he looks.
