I'm a toy hunting ninja! Found at a Walmart Neighborhood Market in Tampa.

Very awesome, I was out earlier looking to see if Thunderwing and Cliffjumper was showing up anywhere.

New catalog scans, too. Plus first look at Deep Dive.

WOWSERS! that's a decent haul!

I was just at wally world today and picked me up a Sunspot (looks sweet! love the colours) and a Breacher for X-mas.

Was looking for some new deluxe figs but shelf was stalked with WFC BB, Megs, Soundwave and Ravage.

Heaps of the new scouts though at 7 bucks a pop too.

OH yeah!.....i picked up a Drift too for the hell of it at 10 bucks.

Still lookin for a Dirge! wonder if that'll EVER make it to Canada.

That Jazz figure will be fun to open on X-mas. Spending more on gas these days than TF's driving around trying to get my hands on all these great figures coming out.

Awesome that these guys are at reatial. that means i shuld hear soon about my pre-orders for JAzz, Tracks and thunderwing.

Also, with that catlogue scan on Deep Dive. i'm actually pleasantly surprised. its a great mold and form that image, i'm seriouslsy digging that repaint.

That's quick. I may actually see Reveal the Shield toys before I return to the Netherlands! Also, the 2-pack is mentioned in the catalog? That can only mean one thing: it's a general release!

What do the instructions to Tracks and Jazz reveal? Do they follow the same pattern as Straxus, Thunderwing ect?

We're getting a retool of Straxus as Skullgrin... who wants to rename Deep Dive as Submarauder instead to go with him? Maybe with Mindwipe for Bomb-Burst...

Speaking of which: is there a flying car mode?!

Wow! That was quick. Haven't even seen Generations or HFTD wave 3 yet around here.

WHOA. This has to be record breaking. Isn't Florida usually one of the last places to get new stuff? And now we've got the first reported sighting?! Fantastic! Someone over at TFW also found these at a Walmart Neighborhood Market in Ft. Lauderdale. Both coasts, wow!

I'm completely shocked. I still haven't found anything beyond a few of Wave 3, and I only found those at one store. Everywhere else still has Generations Wave 1. And since when does WMNM have toys?

so does this mean the preorders should be shipping from tfsource anytime soon?

What in the name of Primus...
WE DON'T EVEN HAVE WAVE 2 of HFTD/Generations/PCC yet!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAGGGHH!!!!
Hell, no one will restock wave 1!! ROTF Tuner Mudflap is plentiful though.

And where's the pic of Deep Dive?

Nah, New Hampshire usually gets new stuff 2 or 3 months after everyone else. For example, the Animated Arcee didn't appear for months and I was left staring at the growing sighting list for everywhere else but here.

It's great that Jazz is out though. Guess I better start looking for that as well as Blurr.

Amelie: Nothing, sadly.

JelZe: A flying car? That's crazy talk (Yes, it's in the manual)!

Yeah, tell me about it! Florida is always the last place to get anything. I wasn't expecting these guys for another month, at least. You're right that it's probably a record.

If you don't mind paying for shipping, check Toysrus.com and Hasbrotoyshop.com

Blurr & Dirge have been out for a few weeks now. I'm sure they'll make there way west shortly if they haven't already.


Hey tpy ninja, hows' about you smoke bomb us a couple of shots of the bios on the back of the cards?

I'm also REALLY liking Deep Dive. But then again, I love sexpaints.

I still haven't even seen wave 3 of generations yet. I bet they will probably be in my area soon, but still.

Great to hear that the new waves are out. Guess that means that BBTS will be getting their stock in soon. Jazz and Thunderwing are my Christmas gifts this year

One more thing, what waves are coming in Dec?

Canada should be getting RTS Wave 1 & Wave 5 of Generations. Most likely RTS Legends & Scouts too. Which is welcomed because I'm a whore for both. I think we should see a new wave of PCCs too.

US releases for December should be Solar Storm Grapple, Lugnut, Strafe and most likely the Rodimus/Cyclonus 2 pack.

That's the *least* of what's thrashed! Those bios were probably written up before the gimmick was introduced...

Oh yeah. Check out how Turbo Tracks is called "Autobot Tracks" and Special Ops Jazz is called "Autobot Jazz." Makes me wonder if those were the placeholder names.

Hey guys, hate to double post, but I have to say, these two guys are fantastic. Really, they are. Aesthetically, they feel completely different than Universe and Classics, and I mean that in the best possible way. These toys are spot on.

I never knew that that store carried toys! I always thought it was just a grocery store! Thanks for the tip! Now I know of another store I can go hunting at.

And yes, I am referring to the very store that these items were found in.

There was one case. There was definitely a Turbo Tracks left, but I dunno about Jazz. I really had to dig - literally - to find mine. That toy aisle was a disaster area.

And thinking about it again, I left in such a hurry... that I forgot to pick up a couple toys I accidentally dropped on the floor in my excitement over Jazz and Tracks What a dick move on my part.
