Seems like they are hitting everywhere on full force now.

I'm really digging the minimal box designs. The legends boxes are so small, I almost missed them on the pegs.

Windcharger had me hemming and hawing. He has a real nice sparkley red plastic and I found him really striking. I already have the mold though. Maybe if I see him again... or maybe one day, I will find a classics Windcharger that doesn't hurt my wallets feelings.

Target on Manhattan had 1 ea of Powerglide, Bombshell, and Windcharger. I'm not sure if someone actually picked up Tcracker or if he fell victim to holiday shopping rampage. I held off since I've got these on order with BBTS.

I guess we'll be seeing voyagers and deluxes any day now.

The local stores are pretty empty so they should not have any issues stocking Combiner wars figures after Christmas...

News Credits: 128 · by **Counterpunch** » Mon Dec 29, 2014 3:31 pm

So this thing we're doing this week...

Any figures ya'll are particularly interested in seeing?

by **mazingaspidey** » Mon Dec 29, 2014 3:37 pm

I think I'm just keeping an eye out for combiner wars at this point. Sadly btr is still pretty well stocked post xmas, so not sure that we'll see them here anytime soon.

News Credits: 104 · by **Cyber Bishop** » Mon Dec 29, 2014 7:27 pm

A lot of the stores down here are pretty empty and ready for combiner wars. That is all I am looking for right now.

News Credits: 131 · by **no-one** » Mon Dec 29, 2014 7:44 pm

Combiner Wars. On the fence about Superion, definitely getting Menasor. Not interested in OP, I try and only get one version of a mold.

I plan on buying them all.

I'll have CW Optimus tomorrow. The Amazon option was just too easy.

by **mazingaspidey** » Tue Dec 30, 2014 11:24 am

I'm on the fence about Optimus, but Superion and Menasor are definitely happening! I kinda hope that they take some time to trickle out though because I'm still recouping from xmas.

I bought prime and silverbolt from Tru online today.

Combiner Wars Deluxe at the BTR Millerville Target. They are doing a reset and I had them open the case. Two of each except Dragstrip, I took one.

The Generations Voyagers we fully stocked (no CW Voyagers) and they didn't think they had any in the back, but I didn't ask the guy to go look.

Deluxe Clase

2 Skydive
2 Alpha Bravo
2 Firefly
1 Dragstrip

Legends Clase

2 Windchargers
1 T Cracker

Spotted the new RID figures at the Hammond Target.

Hyper change Hero class

1 Grimlock (liked the size, not so much the 3 steps)

Warrior class

2 Bees
2 Grimlocks (seemed really small)
2 Strongarms
2 Steeljaws

Legends class? (I guess that's what they are called)

2 OP's
2 Bees
2 Strongarms
2 Steeljaws

Those legends are really tiny, but in a cute way. Almost picked up OP, just so I could pinch his cheeks. Didn't nab any, so they are still there for the taking.

Will post pics later because of the ridiculous size restrictions and I can't resize from my phone. Maybe I can find an app for that...

I went to the Hammond Target yesterday, they were working on the reset and when I scan the deluxes it should 16 in the back, I asked the guy to bring out the box he brought it out but it was the same old generations one that we had before. I also saw the boxes of the rid figures too.

CB, I guess you are collecting the new RID?

I was impressed with what I saw. Plastic looks good, paint apps nice and sharp, weigh appropriate for their size. I'm not a fan of the insignia and I just can't shake the playskool/duplo vib they are giving off.

I may pick up one of the legends and I want that Warrior Grimlock for my desk, even though I'm never in the office.

New RID pics as promised. Shrunk and cropped so I can squeeze them in here. Hopefully my autofocus was working today. I forgot they had a bunch of 1 steps as well. Looks like pretty much all of them (wave 1?)

Not sure why, but when clicking on the pics they open on their side.

Nope, only bought the female. Not impressed with this line at all. I am desperately searching for the Combiner wars deluxes now.

So pissed.. Went to target on Clearview and they still do not have CW deluxes.. Might have to venture to br today.

Good luck with that, normally goes fast. The DS Walmart usually restocks frequently, but I haven't been there in a while. Don't bother going to Gonzales/Prarieville. I hit the WM's and KM on my way to Des Allemands yesterday and it was a wasteland of disappointment.

I haven't been to the Target on Siegen or the TRU because of the traffic nightmare that is Siegen.

On a side not; I hit the TJ Maxx in Hammond and they have a healthy stock of Cyberverse Beast Hunters. Plenty of OP (red), Starscream, Trailcutter and Predaking to be had. I would guess all stores will have similar stock. I've find the cyberverse figures to be a lot of fun.
