I know it was a Takara release but i googled and found no info on US release, is he being queued up in the next upcoming waves?

Went to a TRU and 2 Walmarts, no Bludgeon D: but i saw quite a bit of the Whirl/Bludgeon 2-packs at TRU.

The Hasbro version of the red Rampage (not the same toy) is set for the next wave, along with the Blaze Master repaint Evac. Bludgeon seems to be a popular figure, so just keep looking and he'll turn up.

Yeah, there's a Hasbro Red Rampage, and like Jelze said, Bludgeon is popular at the moment.. keep trying.

So, what's the difference between takara red rampage and hasbro red rampage?

Takara's Rampage has a silver shovel, and some yellow parts. You can check it out here.

Why does desperation lead to HTS? Why can't it just be a normal, recommended option? I see no need to rely on HTS only in times of desperation. I've used HTS several times without any problem and it was well worth the money.

Heck, I've used it over retail, some of the time.

As for Bludgeon's availability, check your local Wal-Marts. The case of Ironhide and Bludgeon seem to be hitting Wal-Mart shelves first, and it's really the only place I ever see that assortment.

Much like Optimus and Mindwipe have been hitting Target.

I've seen a few Bludgeons around for about a month now. You never know when you'll see it though, I had to hunt for RotF Arcee for 3 months.

I can say I have seen saturation of Bludegeon, and Mindwipe cases at both Target and Walmarts here in SE, Michigan. Sorry that probably doesn't help.

Did you think of looking in the sighting database, or looking in the sightings forum that relates to the state, area you are from?

It will make things much more manageable search-wise because it should be people in your area, or you can look up your particular area.

I was just saying that it was an option. Some people just don't have the time to hit every store in their cities.

I said to myself **** it, why bother checking everyday when i can order it online and shipped to the store XD save gas.

If anything, if anyone else is having trouble finding Bludgeon, might as well ship to store and forget your troubles for a while.

Also, since when did Walmart accept Paypal!? That is made of awesome.

Bludgeon is finally mine, 10 internets to whoever identifies the bot right behind him.

God i love this figure, he's as pose-able as Mixmaster, and that dude has way too many joints XD

I pad $30 fr Bludgeon at the flea market here I live. The guy I deal with got it in a lot from a guy who sells boxed TF's. The collector is falling on hard times, so he had to sell it almost as soon as he got it. I disliked the mark-up, but in the end I didn't mind because it was in front of my face. I like the figure as well as ROTF Dire, which I have as my Classics Dirge and Bludgeon as a Classics Bludgeon. I'm impressed with both figures.
