What's up my fellow Autobots? Just wanting to post my findings! We got both Leader Class Ironhide and The Scan Series up here at Elyria TRU. I picked up a TGT exclusive Voyager Ratchet at the W.117th store in Cleveland. Got an RTS Deluxe Bumblebee and Legends Starscream from the Marshalls in Avon. No Grapples or Windchargers, though... So don't be afraid to come up and visit!

WOW! Those are some awesome finds, there. Although I think I'm going to keep checking around home in Akron for stuff.

So I stopped in the Walmart on Tiffin Avenue in Findlay, and was surprised to see HA Roadbuster as well as the Wave 3 (?) deluxes--Thundercracker, Mudflap, Laserbeak, and Nitro Bumblebee. I didn't pick up any of them (Roadbuster was tempting, though), but several of each of the deluxes except for T-cracker...only one of him.

local walmart just got in another case of generations 2011 wave 2 :BANG_HEAD:

i'm so screwed on wave 3 as i'm sure is most everybody else unless i can be quick enough to buy them on hbts.
:sad:

Still looking for RTS Grapple and Windcharger to complete the RTS line, any help would be great. Well i have about 10 more working days until vacation time and im headed to Asia for 1 month and im hoping to find Grapple and WC there, if i cannot find them before i leave.

Can anyone recommend any of the DOTM HA Basic figures? Icepick and Tailpipe are growing on me cause of their weapon modes.

Usually float around on here seeing where and when you guys are finding new figures, but this summer I've had bad luck with finding much of ANYTHING...which won't improve, since I can't get out as much and the movie line is all over the shelves (and I'm just not a movie line kind of collector).

I'm really looking for some RTS/HftD figures--Perceptor, Wheeljack, and Warpath, to be exact... Grapple and Windcharager eventually, too, but that just seems like wishful thinking right now. :-(

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks, guys!

Sorry for the late response, but Wreck-Gar was sold last week.

If I find more, I'll post on here for everyone who is interested.

The weekend of the 4th, I'm going on a roadtrip to Tennessee. With many stops at the various WMs, TGTs, and TRUs along the way. I'll post the things I find on here just for gits and shiggles. I figured it'd be mildly interesting to see who's carrying what and where down the midwest. If not, then I guess you could always ignore me completely! LOL Hey, that also means that I'll be driving right past most of you! Maybe I'll see ya, I'll be wearing a Transformers T shirt to be sure! As far as the hunt goes, it looks like we're all looking for (and not finding) the same things... Peace out, Humans!

Got my Master Shooters (Mega Gun and Brown Shooter) in the mail Saturday. These things are actually really cool little figures. I like these better than the Targetroids that i ordered a few months back. I would say pick them up if you can.

I found HA Shadow Blade Sideswipe at Marshalls for $14.00 and just waiting on the dremel tool kit to do the backpack kibble mod for him.

Kind of late notice, but I picked up Leader Ironhide at the Lima TRU last Friday. Frigging awesome figure.

Wed Jun 29, 2011 10:45 am

Hey everybody! Last night I found 3 Thundercrackers Generations at my local Walmart in Toledo. But still no Wheeljack, Grapple, Windcharger, Wreck-Gar, Perceptor, etc.

Recently picked up Laserbeak and i have say that figure will grow on you very quick and believe it or not, im kinda glad i got him since soundwave is coming out. Also, got HA Basics and not really impressed with them or the one i got, which is Icepick, maybe the others are cool and i was hoping to use these with voyager, but none of my voyagers will hold or support them, so them must be for Leader class figures when their in weapon mode. Picking up LC Sen Prime today and Ironhide when i see him.

Found MechTech HA Basic Whirl and Tailpipe at the Target on Feedwire tonight. Really liking Tailpipe w/ Pinpointer. Both of them weren't even in their system. Had to have a price check done for them. Weird. Cool little figures though.

Just found Generations Wheeljack and Thundercracker their MISB and asking $38.00 for both. If anyone is interested PM me. FYI if anyone is serious please let me know, cause im leaving on vacation later next week and wont be back for a month. Let me know.

OR

I'll trade Tcracker and Wheeljack for a DOTM Sen Prime MISB.

Has anybody picked up any of the Wreckers, specifically Roadbuster and Topspin? I liked how they looked in the movie and was wondering if the deluxe or HA figures were worth getting! Any info or feedback would be appreciated! Thanks

News Credits: 2 · Sat Jul 02, 2011 4:58 pm

I picked up deluxe Roadbuster a while ago, and he's definitely worth getting. Great alt mode without a lot of kibble, decent but not over-complicated transformation, and a solid bot mode. Highly recommended.

forget the deluxe and go all out w/ HA Roadbuster. Definately worth the $30 bucks.

wheeljack and thundercracker are currently available for preorder on hasbrotoyshop.com
warpath is sold out but i managed to snag all three on the first. :grin:

even managed to get free shipping.

expected arrival not until beginning of august, but my walmart's shelves are packed full of 2011 wave 2 generations with yet another case in the back room. so i know full well i won't be seeing wave 3 before the line is axed in my store.
now to wait for the movie line to end and hopefully grappel and windcharger will get rereleased in the next g1 inspired line. 8-}

oh well...

Great haul today! I found a HA Roadbuster at the Walmart in Moraine. There was one more there when I left at about 5. I finally found a Leader Class Ironhide at the Target on N. Fairfield Road!

Don't forget that there are coupons on target.com for $5 off voyager and $10 off leader class that are good through 7/16/11.

Happy Hunting fellow Seibertronians!

Grabbed LC Sen Prime at Target last night by the dayton mall and got him for $10.00!! with the help of some gift cards though. Man! forgot about the $5.00 and $10 coupon i could have used, may have to print this off and head back to get $10 back today.

Hey Prime Fan, how is HA RB? any good or not? debating to get him or not.

Stockade, Roadbuster looks pretty sweet in both modes. There isn't too much kibble and all of the weapons look really cool. The transformation is medium difficulty and He has lots of articulation. The Human figure gimmicks are toned down, which I like. Definitely worth the money!

I hope that Hasbro decides to make a HA Topspin to complete the Wreckers!

I spoke to my girlfriend, she's a GSA (Guest Service Associate) and I asked her about this.

They will indeed honor that coupon. You'll end up basically getting the figure for free. Not a bad deal, especially for one as awesome as Sentinel.

Just present it at customer service and explain what happened. It should be painless and problem free.

If anyone is looking for RTS G1 Legends class figures, Ollies Bargain Outlet has a TON of Op Primes, Megatrons, Goldbugs, and Starscreams for $1.99! (no Prowls or Trailbreakers) I've never heard of this plkace and stopped in there by chance. It's across from the Dayton Mall in Miamisburg, in the same shopping center as TJ Maxx, The Hobby Shop, and Aarons. They also had a ton of ROTF deluxes and HA Bumblenees!
