so i walked into walmart yesterday and lo and behold they had nothing, but they did have their invenetory papers taped to the peg holders and listed the new deluxe wave im not talking about 08 bumblebee and arcee it listed final battle jazz and the new repaint of barricade when i asked the guy where all the tf's where he said that they recieved a letter saying that they had discontinued the line and that they would not be getting anymore idk but this sounds weird to me im not i a panic about getting my tf i just feel bad for everyone else who has not been able to get the ones they want with ease.

P.S. i have pics of the papers but i don't know if i will post them since they say CONFIDENTIAL.

Wow bizarre! It reminds me of what happened when they axed Masters of the Universe. One day we went in, the shelves were cleared, what was left went on clearance, and we were just told it was discontinued, even though as far as we knew everyone was still really into the series.

People just don't understand how much transformers mean to fans. I wish parents would care less about how "dangerous" transformers are. Whats the worst you can do? Chunk it at someones head and give em a head ache?

That's why Amazon.com's prices are higher than normal. Not that they usually have a good price but now their just insane.

Look for the new waves with BB, Payload, Arcee etc to show up when they restock. That's what we got in today at TRU. About 6 cases worth.
