Also, that 3-pack with Strafe Bumblebee and STinger has just been released, also as an ASDA exclusive.





As well as wave 2 of the Construct-Bots Dinobot(s) riders.

The two-pack looks interesting enough. I won't be getting it though. Those Kreos look awful though.

Which 2-pack are you referring to? Also, they're not Kre-Os, they're Construct-Bots Dinobot riders.

[ZeroWolf]

must be nice having a wal-mart that will actually carry something other than Dino Sparklers

Must be good having a shop that has something more than Wave 1. Seriously, we're stuck at Wave 1 in this shithole. "Best" part is that there are NO Generations figures here.

We do get generations, they're just exclusives to toyrus and we'll be lucky to get wave two. Especially considering that the restocking of the evolution 2-packs is spotty at best.

Also, that stinger...is that a different mold then the other exclusives?

Sorry, I meant 3-pack. And I don't really know or care about what those Construct-Bots Dinobot Riders are.

Wait. Generations is Toys R Us Exclusive? Well ****. Because in this country there is only one Toys R Us. And it's pretty crap.

[Madeus Prime]

I know that feeling, my walmart, and I've counted, has got 8 IDW Legends Primes, 1 IDW Legends Starscream, 3 AOE RID Crosshairs, 4 AOE RID Strafes, 3 Leader class AOE Generations Prime, 6 AOE Grimlocks, 2 AOE Hounds, 5 Dino Sparkers, and 10 or so misc AOE Contruct-bots....

God I hate my walmart.

[ZeroWolf]

Best bet is to import at this point, that's what I'll be doing once Windblade and co get released.

[Flashwave]

Rippersnapper being recolored as Grimlock just might work. What do the rest of you think?

That's the one I want most. Not as Grimlock, though, but as Abominus fodder. Oh how I wish they'd repaint those figures more... or rather more widely release the repaints they did make...

Terrorsaur-Strafe is interesting, if just for the novelty of a BW figure getting a re-release nearly 20 years later. But of course they had to put a Bumblebee in it.

Agreed.

Although, these figures are actually fairly easy to do yourself, if you ever wanted to take a dip into customizing. A micro-head paint brush, Meijer brand craft paints for .94 a bottle, spray them with a rattlecan in a nice basecoat of your choice, and


Doublecross (yeah, wrong faction...)


Bristleback & Birdbrain


Slog with "Art Studio"... Me thinks Birdbrain might object though...

[Mr O]

Also, that stinger...is that a different mold then the other exclusives?

3 pack Stinger and single pack Stinger are (slightly different) Knockout repaints, Slug 2 pack Stinger is a repaint of ROTF Sideways.

Ah thanks, surprised they never just repainted bumblebee.

If 5 Below still has these, I may be tempted to try a few myself.

[Madeus Prime]

You know, it's really surprising when those three two-packs are some of the few figures I'm excited for from AOE. Mainly because they're old figures and not from the movie.

Seibertron.com user Bounti76 reports a sighting from the Walmart in Layton, Utah, and it's the Cyberverse repaints part of the Age of Extinction exclusives line! Check out below for photo proof of the appearance at retail of Stinger and Grimlock, though we are told that Optimus and Bumblebee were also available, each priced at $5.96 plus tax. Make sure to flag up any of your own sightings in the appropriate section and forums, too!

I can't wait to see what Legends Class Coke and Sand Candle look like!

You should be happy. Over here we don't have ANY of the IDW stuff. Or the 2nd wave.

We just got Galvatron and Hound here in Quebec, Canada. Drift is nowhere to be seen (was never spotted) and that generations armada homage wave (starscream, minicon team) came and went in one week. We also never have masterpieces or platinum editions due to language laws.

.. but we have free healthcare, so I cant complain too too much

[Autobot032]

Earlier today, we reported that Seibertron, himself, found the newly released Wal*Mart AOE exclusives at a local store in the Chicagoland area, which you can see here.

Seibertron has taken the time to make a Mini gallery of these items, in packaging, so we can get their UPC info. Why, you ask? Because these are part of Wal*Mart's upcoming seasonal reset and most, if not all stores, have these sitting in the back room awaiting a chance to be stocked on shelves and pegs. However, since they're on hand and active in the computer, you can buy them now. With the aid of the UPC info, the toy department associate can help you get them out of the back. (However, not every employee will be able to or be willing to help, so be polite when asking and try someone else if they won't. Manners go a long way in the collector world.)

NOTE: Sometimes Wal*Mart's computer system modifies the UPC for internal stock keeping purposes. If the full UPC doesn't work, give the UPC with the last number removed. The computer should be able to recognize it, then.

If you mean Voyager Hound, you are up on every Walmart, Target, and Meijer in thirty miles of the city of Indianapolis.

[OptimalOptimus2]

How much is one two-pack? I hope not a crazy price like $29.99.

[william-james88]

No, less than that for sure since the 3 pack is 29.99$ in canada

As stated in the original news story, each 2 pack is $14.99.

Hahahaha! I didn't realize that would should up so clearly. You know, if they made Transformers that turn into baseball caps, shoes, memory sticks and the like, I bet you a scented candle Transformer isn't far off.

Not to mention every mass retail store outside of TRU in the Salt Lake City metro area. I've seen Voyager Hound and Galvatron at TRU, once or twice, but aside from ONE Target that had Wave 2 deluxes briefly, I haven't seen anything past Wave 1 of Deluxes or Voyagers. Every single Target and Walmart still has a bazillion Power Attackers and Dino Sparkers. And like 16 Deluxe Crosshairs. Surprised he's the shelfwarmer of this movie.

And, I kid not, my local Walmart has about 10-15 Evasion Primes on the shelf. They're never going to put anything new out if they can't sell those. Ugh.

Anybody else spotted the Target exclusive Prime and Grimlock set with voyager FoC Grimlock and DOTM Deluxe Prime done in obscene amounts of chrome? I found some yesterday and was blown away by the cost. It was tagged on-shelf for $16.99 for a deluxe AND a voyager.
