Gas up the car, if you can afford to that is. Reveal the Shield Wave 2 has been spotted at US retail. TWF05.com member, thedrknss48, has found the wave consisting of Wreck-Gar, G2 Optimus Prime, Perceptor, and Bumblebee at a Target in Fullerton California. Happy hunting, and if you happen upon these guys be sure to post your finding in our Sightings Forum!

This headline should read "OMG WRECK-GAR! + miscellaneous plastic Released at Retail".
Is anyone really that excited about snowmobile Perceptor, jet ski Bumblebee or Optimus Prime #89732?

It'll be my first G2-style Prime, and I really like it, so yes. Percy and Bum I don't care about.

I'm also looking forward to a Perceptor with a proper head, wonky alt-mode aside. Bumblebee...well, he'll be a better-looking peg-warmer than anything from the Bayniverse...

I would agree with you if he weren't all Camaro-bee. He's the worst of both worlds.

I know I sound like a gee-wun idiot, but I would kill for one last proper VW Bumblebee before they ruin him for good.

Well, I'm interested in them all actually, but I have to saw Wreck-gar is my least favorite out of all of them, dont like the colors on him very much, though I'll probably pick him up if I saw him in person =L, and if I already had the Classics Bumblebee mold I would pass on this new repaint. >.>

Looks like its hunting season again down here in Miami !!! But Im really waiting on Scourge and Kup...

Fri Jan 21, 2011 10:36 pm

Yessss!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been waiting for this Prime for months!!!! I've been checking here every day to see if there was an update on RtS. I should go check my local stores and get myself a Prime and Bumblebee. Wreck-Gar I could care less about....he just doesn't appeal to me.

Oh wait...I forgot...my area doesn't get Transformers when they're released. I might have to wait for February or March...maybe even April for these. We still have a horrible overstock of ROTF and Animated everywhere...that just showed up...and they're not moving. And RtS wave 1? It appears to be skipped in most parts.

I'm actually looking forward to more of the classics/generations/reveal the shield releases, the dotm toys have yet to impress me.

mainly wanna get the G2 Prime ('cause I have what's left of the old one) and the bumblebee ('cause I missed him in the first classics wave) so far I'm liking what I'm seeing of the new lineups, minus DOTM

Pre-ordered them, along with Generations Series 2, from BBTS. Guess what showed up this afternoon? :grin:

I has a happy. :KREMZEEK:

My wallet just jumped out of my back pocket and fled in terror. Stoked about Wreck Gar and Perceptor and now it looks as though I will wind up having to get BumbleBee. My kids were nice enough to point out that my Classics Bee is missing a piece, so unless/until I find said piece I will need something to replace it. It's actually just missing a part of the jet-ski but since I'm extremely uptight when it comes to my Transformers, the whole thing will get boxed up and tucked away and a replacement brought in.

im getting all four actually. well i preordered them. Now I just have to wait on finding Kup and Scourge. Oh and Ramjet....ramjet is hard to find. I'm not a huge fan of Ebay but i will use it as a last resort if i have to. I just want the conehead trio...is that so bad?

News Credits: 36 · Sat Jan 22, 2011 3:36 am

I think EBay is going to be your only resort for a Ramjet, unles you are happy to settle for the G2-coloured one from the club, might stand out a bit tho'!!

We had wave one of RTS just before Xmas here in the UK, but it only just becoming widespread, hopefully these won't take too long to show up over here.

Does anyone have the DCPI number for any of these? I have had a terrible time ringing around stores trying to find out if they have them without those numbers. One store said they had no reveal the shield whatsoever despite me being there a few days ago and seeing a ton of them there. :BANG_HEAD:
