Of course in the photo is the Studio series Long Haul I found at the same Target. Unique thing about the Micromaster set, someone had returned it for some reason.. It had been opened and the figures cut from the inside bubble package. Took it to the customer service, they gave me 15% off the original price and they where all good, no damage.
Still no Seeker 3 Pak or Jetfire, fingers crossed!

You know, so the animators get to reuse the stock animation footage as for combining Micromasters, I view it as something that they did to themselves to aid the bigger bots, with the cons following suit.

Oh dude I love that! I totally have something like that in my head canon. I think it was just late and I was wanting to be creative and silly you know me, also maybe to give people a chuckle especially with all the bad news this last weekend.

And with that please take care everyone. Please try to keep smiling and being brave out there, and share it if you can.

right now, the seeker three pack is only being sold in select stores. Check the availability online- if your store is listed among those that carry it, you're in luck. supposedly will be available for order online later this month.

They're both set to come out in the States in the first week of October. They're Walmart exclusives. The Bluestreak preorder is sold out, but Soundblaster should still be available. I thought he was only $30, but the listing below is $40.

I don't know how they're being distributed outside of the US.

Why not just get Jetfire online right now?

That is weird, Sounblaster was $30.00 when I ordered back during SDCC.

I want a bunch more colors of Lionizers. What a neat little mold.

Has anyone spotted any of these Jetfire boxes at local WalMarts? I saw an image for that at TFW but then there hasn't been too much more noise about it.

Also, that picture was not of the toy on the shelf, it was just cases.

Fellow Seibertronians! It seems Siege continues to surprise us, and today, it has given us something rather big. Thanks to TFW2005 User cryotek, we now have confirmation that the new Transformers War For Cybertron: Siege Commander Class Jetfire has actually arrived at US retail! This sighting was found in a Walmart in Chillicothe, Ohio.



Contrary to what the pictures may lead you to believe, Jetfire does not retail for $49.00, and instead retails for the normal price of $80.00.

Is this a new chance for you to grab the new Commander figure? Or will you pass on this peaceful scientist? Tell us in the discussion below, and stay tuned for more updates.

WTF?!That price cant be right.

Well color me surprised... I wasn't expecting to see him in stores... Good news for those who prefer hunting I suppose.

Though I'd think $80 is a bit of a big ask for a "single item" in brick and mortar outside of Toys R Us (RiP)

It isn't. I said that in the article.

Oh, ok, because I'd be pissed. I paid $98 bucks... I like it... but if I could have gotten it for $49, I'd REALLY like it lol.

I'm gonna pass on the "peaceful scientist" and get the "daring, indomitable Air Guardian."

If you snap a pic of the price you could argue that that’s the price that’s there, and that you shouldn’t pay $80 for something marked $49; you may just get it for that price.

That may work with Walmart Customer service because either

1) They Dont care
2) Dont want the customer to make a scene and have bad PR or
3) are too dumb to know the difference...

But in truth, that is just the Siege or SS Leader Price Tag. They are supposed to make a new label for new items, but sometimes are just too lazy or don't care to.

That's awesome, thanks Nathaniel Prime! Yeah sorry Ebay but Walmart will get my money on this one.

I had found a case up for sale in the Mooresville Walmart 2 days ago. This is awesome they are out for sale at brick and mortar. Has anyone had luck finding the Target Rainmaker 3 pack for 79.99 anywhere?

We know they are out there...Scalpers seem to be snatching them up pretty quickly though

I got my Rescue Patrol today and Stakeout has two right thighs. Fortunately it's not that big of a deal but still it's the wrong part. Does anybody else have that issue

I found them at a Target in Omaha this past weekend.

By the way, with jetfire on shelves at walmart, you now have nothing to ebvy about canada (in terms of toy availability)

I'm well aware, and pleased as punch! I like how you included that part in parenthesis . Yep I'll be on the lookout for him on a walmart shelf for sure, would be my best option.
