I didn't know there were Target stores in Germany. Cool!

Man that is a pretty weak store display.

I already found these scouts at Target in Burlington, NJ. :grin:

I had no idea they were out, so it was a nice treat.

I have StrongArm and Skyblast so far and they are awesome. I'm glad some collectors outside the US get to enjoy these TFs too.

Nice. I personally can't get enough of the Arcee Energon mold. Looking forward to when it's colored again and released at Target as Elita One. There's already one on eBay, but I'm not paying $30.00+ for it.

Now, if only I could get a hold of Flamewar and Flareup and NOT pay $600+ for the pair.....

*sighs* Figures that these wouldn't be released "by accident" in Canada's retail market. Well, at least a few more people will get to enjoy these, then.

Ebay bud. That's the only way CANADA will ever get Target exclusive items. We could have had Target up here but the Bay's share holders refused the purchase of the Bay by Target. Given that the Bay is the last standing fully Canadian retailer thanks to Walmart and the fact that the Bay has been around since 1670. That's right 1670. It might be a good thing.

Didn't the Bay get sold to a US company a while back, causing a hell of an uproar? Or at least there was talks about the selling the Bay to the States. I remember that much...

There aren't.
The figures are supposedly generally available.
They aren't on the German Hasbro Transformers site yet (take a look, the line up is rather pathetic or maybe the site is just horrorably out of date. I want the other Robot Heroes and Softimus Prime).

Haven't seen one yet, but then, the stores I've been to don't look like they restocked beyond what they had in the back since the movies figures were first released (one store compensated the thining Transformers sortiment with Roadbots).
