Found Voyager Starscream and Bulkhead at Meijer tonight. $19.99 each. I only picked up the Starscream since I have the FE Bulkhead already. Now if only I could find a Knock Out.

Just got my Knock Out & Hot Shot from TRU.com today. My PRID Arcee is in the mail, and my PRID Vehicon is on backorder :p Was thoughtful of others and only ordered one when I got the shot to, but with the news of the latest wave revision, getting a second in the future shouldn't be an issue.

Still holding out on Optimus, Bulkhead and Starscream hoping Hasbro was serious when they said rereleasing the First Editions was a priority.

Even if Hasbro does give First Edition another outlet, Optimus and Bulkhead are most likely what will come. Starscream did see a limited release here, already. I sincerely doubt they'll rerelease him at retail, at this point.

I'd like to be wrong, believe me.

Picked up PRID Voyager Bulkhead at Walmart today. Asked an associate about Scream and the he checked and no luck. I moved the front chest panels on Bulk so they are positioned at his sides. This takes away from his screen accuracy, but it does add some much needed metal on his 'bones'. Anyways, I like him!

found PRID Bulkhead at target monday, still waiting for the wave 3 deluxes

[SW's SilverHammer]

Uhm over up here; the past few days i've gotten, Arcee, Wheeljack, Soundwave, Ratchet. As for today I got Voyager Starscream and deluxe Knockout(I don't like em)

[grimdragon2001]

snagged cyberverse ironhide and dreadwing today

Got TFP Voyager Starscream today. Overall, he's a decent figure, but that mechtech weapon is a travesty. And not because it's simply ugly and huge, but because it doesn't even fit on the character properly. Trying to peg it onto the forearm was a fail, since the peg was designed a zillionth of a micron too big. I wasn't about to try forcing it in and risk breaking the translucent plastic around the 5 mm port. Trying to put it in his hand was equally met with failure, as the ball joint in his wrist is just too loose and flimsy to support its weight.

Thought I could display him with the mechtech and explain it away as being another one of those artifact weapons they've been searching for, but I think I'm just going to have to stick with the missiles on the forearms like in the show.

If you have Bulkhead, it looks decent on his offhand, lol. Of course, I'm in the "it looks so bad to begin with anything is an improvement" camp.

Yeah, I'm surprised these made it past the design stage without someone saying "are you serious?! What's wrong with you? Are you high? (slap to the back of the designer's head)"

At least in the ill-fated DOTM line SOME of the MechTech weapons looked decent. These powerizer ones with the exception of Megs are complete messes.

Saw Knockout and Hot Shot and Walmart tonight. I must have missed the Vehicon. I bought Knockout, and left Hot Shot. Some kid (roughly 20 years old) snagged him almost immediately after I moved down the aisle.

My local TRU had a crazy 50% off sale today.

So I got 2 FE Arcee and Starscream for trade, one more RiD Prime Soundwave to keep MOC, one RiD Prime Bumblebee (yeah, it was time to get him) and finaly, DotM Specialist Ratchet.

Specialist Ratchet is a way superior repaint of the original with a better Mechtech weapon. I'm glad I too it.

However, the Surprise of the day was RiD Prime Bumblebee. Appart for the vehicle mode, it's far superior to the FE version! Easier and more fun transformation, with a nice automorph gimmick, TWO blasters, and a better looking robot mode.

Reduce the population of the Hive by getting a Bee today! He's worth it.

Uhm over up here; the past few days i've gotten, Arcee, Wheeljack, Soundwave, Ratchet. As for today I got Voyager Starscream and deluxe Knockout(I don't like em)

Just one question, did transform knockout by how the instructions say to?

If you did, then you might want to watch a video of him.

Back on topic. I found knockout, hotshot, and vehicon last weekend. Also found voyagers wave 2, but didn't buy any of them.

[Fox Thiagarajan]

Went hunting for wave 3 deluxes. Found a Hot Shot at a Walmart, but didn't buy him. None of my area targets have any wave 3 deluxes. Hoping for better luck tomorrow.

Found Cyberverse Breakdown and EVAC today - just need Dreadwing and Ironhide.

Pre-ordered one of the case revisions featuring the two Vehicons. Since it has 6 figures out of 8 I want; that will save me some gas money. Gas money I've been spending tons of due to daily trips from work to Target.

oh no I did, I watched a video for the proper transformation, I just don't like the way the only (main) colors on him is the two toned plastic

Yeah, they really screwed up on that, the difference in the reds is WAY too much. And the details really should be painted. :\ That said though, literally every single detail *is* there, if you care to paint it yourself.

Picked up cyberverse Ironhide yesterday in Target.

[Midnight_Fox]

Finally snagged a couple Vehicons Friday from a couple of Targets.

[Fox Thiagarajan]

Found a Voyager Starscream at Target! Also, my friend brought back a Knock Out from his trip to California.

[King Kuuga]

Last week I finally found Knock Out and Hot Shot in a Wal Mart, but I had forgotten my wallet at home.
The other day I snagged a Voyager Bulkhead to fill the empty space on my shelf until I can get a First Edition. Like many have said, if you leave his horrendous mace-thing out of the picture, he's not too bad.

[Cyberseven]

Well its been a while since I posted anything. So rather then post what I have in Prime figures..I will just say what I dont have or have passed on.
Passed on FE Voyager Optimus and Bulkhead.

Passed on anything smaller then deluxe.

Passed on RID Hotshot.

Passed on RID Arcee(Have all FE deluxes).

Now just waiting for new character releases...

[Sirtank]

Finally, after seeing only Hotshots left on the pegs at every Target in town, I found Knock Out and Vehicon at Walmart today.

[Fox Thiagarajan]

Found PRiD Arcee at Target. She isn't bad. Def going to use her gun for another figure.
