Just came back from walmart and they restocked the voyagers, but instead of Blackout, there was Megatron along with Ironhide, Ratchet, and Starscream. So is Blackout over with?

He is still out. Especially if you saw the other voyagers from the firsst wave then he is definitely still out there.

There has not be a recall of him, so Id say he hasn't gone forever.
Besides there is that lovely Evac repaint coming out soon, so you can always get him if you never see a Blackout figure again.

I've heard that Blackout would be good if he didn't suck so bad...
Is that true?

In my region, that's about the only way you'll get one. Did anyone else notice that TRU raised the price on the 2-Pack?
It was originally $25.00, now it's $30.00
I asked why the price was pushed up and the guy actually said "Well, as you can see, we have neither one in single packs, and they're rare everywhere. For the normal price, we're providing you the ability to get both in a single purchase. Sounds like it's worth spending the extra five to me." I rolled my eyes and forced out a thank you.
