Target supposedly had them in stock one place over, but that was a lie made by the website...
I doubt we'll see a second wave of their distribution so that was probably the only time the four-pack will be stocked! Everyone prepare to pay 300 online.

If we're lucky we'll see a small run on Pulse (they did it with GO after the first pack was scalped to hell and back), but they haven't done that for any Target exclusives so far. Target probably wouldn't agree to the Pulse partner exclusive thing.


I agree that the Midwest almost seems cursed when it comes to distribution...
However the W.C. 4 pack has been at my local Target for over a week now. 2 of them.
But there's been no Kingdom figures at all for over a week.
And strangely, there were 3 SS86 Grimlocks that showed up, but no Slags...
Yesterday there was also 3 BB/Barricade 2 packs on the shelf.

I'm so glad I have stuff on preorder with Amazon... I really was thinking I'd fine SS86 figures by now, but looks like it's not happening.

I am still enjoying the 4-pack figures. Fangry does have loose knees, but it's not been a crippling problem. And Blackarachnia is surprisingly enjoyable. I really like the paint work done to her.

I really like that Fangry as well, mine seems to have bypassed the knee problems that were widely reported. 1 thing that kinda irks me is the double set of hands. The robot hands and beast hands are practically the same, with just minor detailing that's barely noticeable due to the black. And in robot mode the beast hands just hang off the back of the arms. So I just keep the robot hands tucked in and use the beast hands in robot mode.

Bumblebee is great, the pin on the roof joint makes life so much easier, and the weathering is actually really nicely done!

Barricade appears to be unchanged apart from the missing "punish and enslave" text, it's still kind of a pain to get into alt mode.

Overall I really enjoy this set (particularly Bee), the Buzzworthy line has been really cool!

I'm just really happy that set gave me another go at Clunker Bee. That Bee specifically will probably remain in alt mode for the shelf, same with this Barricade. It is nice to have another shot at some older figures like that!

Personally, I don't thing Clunker Bee is really good. It's not fun at all to handle that fiddly mess. As for the Barricade of that set, "censoring" his iconic catchphrase "To punish and enslave" is baffling and unforgivable.

I'm glad I found the original SS Barricade at my local geek store. Used, complete, and 5$ less than the normal brand new deluxe price. I think this is the best deluxe Barricade yet if I conveniently ignore that his waist just won't properly tab in his torso for reasons.

I remain of the opinion that TLK Barricade is my favorite retail Barricade, and the MPM is the best by far overall, but I understand my opinions tend to be in a minority.

As for Clunker Bee, I have that mold 3 times now, I still enjoy it.

I’ll be talking about this more in the Studio Series thread sometime soon, but I think Clunker Bee is really great.

Don't give up hope. I was ready to do so too since, every time I went to my Target for the past two months, the shelf space for the Worlds Collide set was always empty. After all that time of fruitlessness, I walked into Target two nights ago and was stunned to find three of the set FINALLY on the shelves.

Your store might be like mine: Either extremely slow to get it on the shelves or slow to get enough in stock that they don't all sell out immediately. In the words of Waspinator, "Took forever but way worth it."

Last time at my Toys R Us, there was seven boxes. Seems like these things are constantly restocked. So I guess sooner or later, some will appear in your area.

You could also ask a Canadian to ship a set for you, but taxes, PayPal fees, and shipping may kill the deal even when sold with zero profits.

I just started a new job that's closer to Target, I can even go by it on my way home if I take the long way so I'm definitely checking much more frequently myself. Fingers crossed.

Got lucky and found the Worlds Collide pack. My Bee seems to be the most solid of the four, followed by Fangry, Primal, and Black Arachnia. Happy to have Fangry and that my copy's knees work, but I'm really disappointed that the Predacons seem to have paid the price and become borderline floppy

It would probably be a lot cheaper than an eBay scalper, so any Canadian wants to hook me up I'd pay a little extra, even.

After finally playing with Origin Bee, I can finally tell an opinion.

It's smoll. Really smoll. But no way this could ever be a Scout in the ROTF times. Too many parts. Transformation was less complex that I thought it would be, but some parts pop off easy and it's a bit annoying. Not a dealbreaker though. The bot is kibbly, but still perfect. The UFO is absolutely fantastic. Overall, I'm impressed that not even 3P ever achieved something similar. OG Bee will be one of the most important Bee in my collection.

BTW, the jetpack and energon rods will sleep forever in a Ziploc bag.

I keep this version in alt UFO form because it's so cool looking. It does make me wonder how they would make Cosmos out of the mold though as his parts would be more round as well as his robot mode looking entirely different than Bee.

It also got me to thinking about whether Hasbro should made a Cybertronian version of Wheeljack and Jazz from EP1, would anyone even be interested in that? granted Wheeljack basically looks like a box and Origin be likely wouldn't be able to fit inside his vehicle mode anyways. Jazz on the other hand looked pretty cool, almost a cross between Mirage and Blurr.

Wheeljack and Jazz were basically what people were clamoring for back when Siege was first announced. Hasbro even hinted at the time that they had designs for Wheeljack should have won that fan poll that netted us the Impactor and Mirage toys, but since Wheeljack and Spinister didn't win, we never got the Wheeljack toy (which feels like even more of a ripoff since they went and made Spinister anyway).

But we got Wheeljack eventually too, making me think that the Cybertronian box mode was never gonna happen and it would always be some lancia looking car if he won.

Motto: "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes"
It's funny, of the Three Autobots that actually appeared in a Cybertronian alt mode in the first act of the first episode of the series, NONE of them were done in Siege :lol: . We finally got Bumblebee, but I know fans would go nuts for actual Cybertronian Alt Modes of Wheeljack and Jazz.
Bucket/Want List: Botcon 2016 Customization Class Ratchet (G2 Deco), or Customization Class Ratchet (Marvel Comics Deco) **would also be willing to pay for an Unpainted Botcon 2016 Ratchet, TT Legends Fortress Head (only) with working Electronics

Wish List of Modern Combiners: Road Caesar, Monstructor & Dinoking (proper size to fiction), Landcross, Guard City, Battle Gaia, & G2 Defensor. Wish List of Titans:Metrotitan,Majin Zarak

No we didn't, we got Earthrise Wheeljack instead of Siege Wheeljack.
