Toys R Us.com now has listings available for the upcoming Transformers Universe exclusives, Countdown and Darkwind. Both figures are listed for $29.99.

So if you are worried that your local Toys R Us might be a little slow in getting these, or if you just can't wait that long, here is your chance to get them now!

I will wait a week or two before I place an order online. I hope they show up in stores before that.

If they sell like the previous TRU exclusives in my area then I'm in no rush to buy them. Especially with their $30 price point.

I was planning on making the 40 mile trip to target and TRU next week. I doubt either place will have any of the guys they're supposed to, they never do!

$30? Ouch. I really really want Countdown, but not for $30 + S/H. I'll wait until I can pick him up at my local TRU; they always seem to stock too much of everything, especially their store exclusives, so I have confidence I'll find it.

Yea, I think I'm waiting till they are on clearance. Neither is a must buy for me.

I do not see what is different about Countdown in the TRU exclusive one. It appears to be the same one I find at Fred Meyer and Wal-Mart

FINALLY!!!

Very excited for Countdown but I'll wait to see him on the shelf...TRU's exclusives never seem to be hard to come by once they're out...

Are you from outside of the US, like Canada or Australia?

Darkwind is already sold out.
Typical....

Has anyone actually seen these guys in stores?

I'm not in the mood to drive 45 miles each way to find out the the crappy TRU doesn't have them. I was willing to look when the Target nearby had toys but they've sold out so I'm no willing to make a completely wasted trip.
