Has anybody experienced problems finding the 6 inchers in stores? I haven't found Ultra Magnus, Cheetor, Sunstorm, WWI Megatron (Or the 2-pack of him & Prime) or The Fallen anywhere. Am I the only one who hasn't found them?

You are not the only one. None of the figs in your list have shown up in my neck of the woods either. I'd guess it's because most stores aren't ordering any other TF's with the movie line out.

Damn them!!!! I want my Titanium Fallen, WWI Megs, & G1 Magnus! This is an outrage! I mean, I like the Movie toys & all, but I still haven't given up on thr Titanium line yet.

The 6" titaniums are awesome, no argument there, but my wallet is sorta relieved there aren't any around right now. I don't think the WWI Prowl or the Megs/Prime two pack has been officially released, and the way I'm spending on movie toys, I could afford to wait awhile. But if see anything this week, I'm gonna buy it. The 'haze of fandom' is totally clouding my spending.

Same here. I just spent a little over $300 on the June 2nd Movie Haul. And to think, I still need even more money for MP3 Soundwave & the Convoy Docking Station. Damn. Transformers always finds way to squeeze money outta me.

I completely Gave up on ever finding WWI Megs. I don't think it has anything to do with the movie line either. This is a stocking problem. The Tits aren't moving as well as expected and most major chain stores aren't stocking them like they should. My local Target literally just stopped after Thundercracker. They don't even have a space for the 6".

Though I only collected the WWI figures anyway. Didn't care for the rest. Still need the Fallen and the rest of the seekers.

Oddly enough, K-mart seems to be the only place consistently stocking the Titaniums, though they're way behind schedule. The Rodimus/Soundwave assortment just started delivering here a couple weeks ago.

I hope Target changes their stance on ordering Titaniums. I'm sick of dealing with Wal-mart.

Same here. I have never purchased a 6" Titanium from a store. The only ones I've ever even seen in a store in Chicago is Soundwave, at the aformentioned slow to stock Kmart chain.

I don't know why Target won't carry these figures. My local Target has the Marvel Titaniums, and I've seen the same three Dr. Octopus' on the shelf for over a year.

Fortunately I had ordered them thru Hasbro when they were still available. I've came to the realization that you should get them when you see them online or in the stores, because you might not see them again. That or pay the price on ebay...

Quoted for the highest degree of truth. I've gotten all of my Titanium figures online.

I agree with the K-Mart suggestion...right now I've seen WWI Starscream and RID Prime, but they did have Rodimus Prime at the one I frequent about a month ago.

I'm planning on making a trip to a TRU soon, so hopefully I can find the WWI Prime/Megs set; I'll take a hit to the wallet since I already own Prime, but it'll be easier to find Megatron that way.

Now if I can get my hands on G1 Magnus, Soundwave, and the Fallen...

I have yet to find them. The only place near me that was stocking them was Wal-Mart and Toys "R" Us.

I have not seen them retail either. I just pre-order all 6" from BBTS.

Well, the thing I suggest is not to go to the big-chain stores like Wal-Mart etc as they'll all be gone. Try to find specialty hobby stores to get them, even though the prices will be marked up.
