Okay when Classics first came out they couldn't stay on the shelves. Once December hit they sat there and continue to sit there around here. Bad part of this is the Voyagers sitting are from the old packs so until they sell no new ones which means no cases with Jetfire yet.

My target is choked with the SW vs UM 2 pack and I'm about ready to make a trade for a Jetfire since I still can't find one yet. No TRU here so only luck is with Target or Walmart.

Thats unfortunate. i'm actually glad i live in the UK for once, i just went down to my local TRU and they had about 30+ cases of Classics Jetfire all £20 which i guess would convert to $40 and nothing else. (i was looking for a classics prime lol)

i still need to go to target and check for the UM SW pack

I wish I could get a hold of the SW vs UM 2 pack but I don't have a Target in my area. My local wal-mart however did have quite a few Jetfires when I was down there last, too bad I couldn't afford him.

I am skeptical of Star Jammer's account, if only as a result of the fact that nobody would voluntarily look for Classics Prime.

are my thoughts exactly, maybe he doesnt like prime. anyway back to the topic at hand, it realy depends on were you live i guess.

my targets been empty on voyagers for a long time, and deluxes forever. the problem is that too many stores kept the classics in the back, unill they sold most of the cybertron stuff, then put them out after everyone had done theyre christmas shopping

hell, my walmart just put out the pallet displey not even a moth ago, and those were supposed to be out in early december.

incidently all the megatrons from that pallet have pretty much dissapeared

Ah ye of little faith, to prove my claims i went to my TRU today to take some pics. Observe

and for your information i don't like Prime's without trailers, hence why i don't have a classics prime. however i was thinking of kitbashing a trailer so thats why i was looking

Well I'm in Bismarck and the Deluxes sell really well. At least the stock moves and you can see that. Voyagers on the other hand have just stopped selling, which means no new stock.

Christmas wiped out any Cybertron figures here but some other stock did get put up after Christmas which surprised me.

I'm going to give it till the end of March and get my Devastator set and see if any Voyagers come in, otherwise I might have to arnage a trade with someone that can get Jetfire but can't get something else that is plentiful around here, I don't want to pay $40 on ebay for it.

StarJammer: change all those Jetfires into UM/SW and you have the Targets in my area...

I have seen exactly one Jetfire in all of the Twin Cities (MN) and I got it (at a K-mart no less...)

Posted: **Thu Feb 22, 2007 1:34 pm**

Damn, that's a lot of Jetfires.

And I thought it was silly that my Target only had 4!

Either he's been to the same one I last went to (Teeside) or all UK TrUs are ptrry much the same.

I can assure you the Reading TRU is identical.

OK chaps, who's for a gloating session?

The opotunity comes so very rarely.

All three Voyagers are warming the benches at my local Zellers while the Wal-mart down the road can't keep them in stock. Amazing, as Zellers is always a few dollors cheaper.

There's an enormous amount of Classics Jetfire over here. In the UK. So much Classics Jetfire. I can't go anywhere without seeing a Classics Jetfire. I think I may just have to buy five. Of Classics Jetfire. And ship some out to my foreign friends. Or...just keep them here. In the UK. Where there is just so much Classics Jetfire.

Posted: **Thu Feb 22, 2007 6:43 pm**

LOL!

yup so many.

Posted: **Thu Feb 22, 2007 6:54 pm**

okay they need to ship some stock to the Midwaste...err Midwest then!

Hey were those the mini constructicons I also saw in that picture?

yep sure was, they had some other transformers like cryo scourge, classics ultimate battle set, galaxy force vector primes and some beat up old 20th anniv primes.

oh yeah, and a helluva lot of G1 tracks and Red alert CS editions.

primus is still £49.99 (prob $100 in USD) i already have the unicron head version but i'm keeping it misb just incase so will be buying another primus when it goes for £20 (like my armada unicron)

In Western New York state, we have nothing but Classics Prime and the odd Classics Megatron.

No Classics Deluxe, no Galaxy Force Vector Prime (I wouldn't mind purchasing him), no Classics Ramjet or Cliffjumper, just Classics Prime, Mirage, and Cybertron Demolisher.

I keep running into them. The Target I was at yesterday in Crystal had 2. I bought one. I keep reading how there's a shortage and I imagine I might make some money on him.

Of course, that's just my imagination...

I live in Maryland, and I've seen loads of classics (minus Jetfire I've only seen 2). Plus loads of UM/SW at the Targets. The biggest seller here are the 6 inch Titaniums I can not find a Titanium Rodimus to save my life (not a big want but he looks cool).

Finally found this gem just seemed that they had to eventually restock the Voyagers.

I was disapointed at first one of the spring loaded joints for the rocket pack didn't work but unscrewing the gun and resituating the spring fixed the issue.
