Sure enough they Had x2 Warpath (now only one), x2 Thundercrackers, x2 Wheeljacks, a Scourge there. I wasn't sure if some of you were still looking for those or not.

You are in Fort Wayne, right?? I swept Anderson, North Indy, and Muncie in the last week and I still have not come across Warpath. I have only found Wheeljack and Thundercracker once in Frankfort on my way to Indiana Beach weekend before last. All the pegs were loaded at every Walmart I went to with GEN shelfwarmers. If you run across on again would you be willing to grab it and sell it to me? I would be very grateful.

Looked absolutely hideous. Anyone else see this or know about it?

Yeah, its some lame robot called Comettor. The new OP is so lame that theyhave to throw in another random deluxe Transformer just to sell it. Weak....

Just remember, ideas like this are what caused us not to have Windchargers and Grappels on the shelves. Because they needed to clear space for this kind of trash.

Someone needs to be fired........

^ This

Remember though, the blame mainly falls on the retailers.

Oh, I know. Some jackass in sales made this decision. I'm sure his/her bonus will be huge over this one. Especially when they are going for $5 this January in the clearance aisles. What a waste of resin at 1.06 a lb........morons

We have this guy right, that works in the sales dept in charge of product development. He is 22 yrs old and his degree is in Jewish history..........somebody just like him has to work at Hasbro.....maybe it is his brother? Remember, this kid is in charge of multimillion dollar product decisions.

Hi,Indiana Transformer collectors. I am new to this site as a seibertron member. I really was not sure if I had to post a introduction. Anyhow I live in Ohio and a diehard transformer collector. I saw you are looking for Generations warpath figure. The walmart I live 10 minutes away from has like 3 warpaths there. Let me know via pm if you need them.

There is a collectibles toy store here in Kokomo that has 3 Laserbeaks but at like $25 a piece right now. I fought the impulse (which was difficult let me tell you) because I figure in a month, there may be a cool display at Walmart again like ROTF which had Ravage, the Twins, Smokescreen, etc. It may not be the greatest figure we'll ever see, but it did look cool & would go well with Ravage & Soundwave.

by **smartguy2536** » Tue May 24, 2011 2:36 am

Hey toycollector! I'd certainly be interested in one of them, can we work out a trade/cash offer?

Hi. I live over in Fort Wayne. I'd like to get one of those Warpaths. I'd certainly pay you for it. That'd be great!

I know, I only able to finally get there yesterday morning. No Warpath. I'm usually a day late, dollar short. I'll keep looking, but would like to get my hands on 1.

Sounds like my luck. Seriously, I live within 25 miles of seven Walmarts, two Tru's, five Targets, three Meijers and two Kmarts, and I can't find one stinking figure. I'm trying not to get impatient, but ugh..............

by **Skywarp76** » Tue May 24, 2011 3:57 pm

Ok DOTM powerglide is really starting to grow on me. Has anyone seen him around? He's about the only one I'm really dead set on getting now. I might pick up shockwave and skyhammer if i fall in love with them in the store. Shockwave looks cool, but I'm not sure he'll satisfy the lust that I have for a G1 style remake/generations Shockwave.

by **radioboomer** » Tue May 24, 2011 3:59 pm

Skywarp, you're in Ft. Wayne, right? I've seen a few at the Meijer on 37 but that was a few days ago. Meijer might be the place to look.

If I see him again I'll let you know. He's well worth the hunt in my opinion.

getting ready to pick mine up :grin:

pretty excited about it

Kokomo KMart had that DOTM Daredevil pack. Getting the HA Basic figure, plus Sam, plus a non-yellow BB for $18 didn't seem like that bad of a deal even though I know we're all about tired of new BB's.

by **barricade2218** » Tue May 31, 2011 7:17 am

Found the Autobot Daredevil Squad exclusive at K-Mart south yesterday.
