Anyone ever see this set in a WalMart or has it not been released yet?

I saw it once. It was just some horrible deluxe version of Movie Optimus paired with a the deluxe classics prime originally from the Prime vs. Megatron Classic's 2 pack. Not that great really, would of been better with Masterpiece Optimus and Leader Optimus, but that would be over $100

Bought it when it first came out, during the opening week of the Transformers Movie, big disappointment, regret buying the set. I dont think the sets even worth 5 bucks, but thats my opinion. Let me breakdown the set,the Optimus Prime movie version is crap, no detail, very little articulation...the 84 version Optimus Prime is crap, he has a 360 rotating waist to give him punching action, try standing him up and his waist just turns, had to use sticky-tact to get his waist to stay still, has articulation, but the detail on the figure is a little better than the movie version, but thats not saying much... The Burger King toys had more detail in their figures than this crappy set.Stay far away from this, not worth the 20 Bucks.

The little black tab on Prime's back.... pull it OUT, and it will lock his chest in place. Then dump the sticky-tac and take another look at that figure. It's really not a bad prime. His truck mode sucks butt, but the robot version is very G1

They hung around for about a month after the initial release around here.

You aren't missing much though.

Never saw it either. Who would want it though.. it was a joke when I first saw it. Atleast the G1 Prime w/ G1 Megatron was half-decent considering it atleast had Mini-cons packaged with it.

The Prime is nothing but a FAB prime... so go pick that up if you want but not really worth buying.. Wish I didnt buy the damn thing!
