In terms of Deluxes and Voyagers, no shelfwarmers at all. In the beginning of the week Target had a surplus of G1 Jazz and Starscream redecos, and they ran out of that by Thursday.
It does make me sad, however, to see so many new wave Real Gears sitting on the shelves, to the extent that if I kid were eyeing Meantime, I wouldn't hesitate to buy it for him. One of the greatest figures in the whole Movie toy line.

For the last week of July/first week of August, the shelfwarmers were Swindle and Bonecrusher.
But since then, no transformers figures have been warming the shelves, even Ultimate Bumblebee graced the shelves for a few days.
However the Target exclusive Beamers, Caribiners and PC's are warming the shelves very nicely.

Transformers in stores? You mean you can ACTUALLY buy them in STORES? Not just on e-Bay?
All jokes aside, since we got the new shipments of Voyager class Transformers, Ratchet and the frosty Megatron have been sitting around. As well as those Cyber Slammers. Who thought THAT was a good idea?

Concept Bumblebee...
But seriously I think the real gear figures and Cyber slammers mostly. Nothing else really keeping the shelfs or pegs warm around here. Well maybe a voyager Megatron or 2.

The big shelf warmer I noticed a few months back was classics Mirage, but really there are no shelf-warmers nowadays around here. Everything is bare.

Some shops are just bare, some are packed with Classics Mirage, and some have one or two Swindles or Dreadwings. Blegh.

Protoform SS & Prime in the local TRU, Bonecrusher & Swindle in the Sainsburys & other convenience stores & supermarkets, Voyager Ratchet & occasionally Blackout in the local toystores, bare everywhere else, and Voice changer helmets & those big gun things everywhere. No T.E.C.H or Real Gear to be seen.
No I am not sending anyone anything.

PROTOFORMS!!! Both of them. I'm really tired of seeing those things!!!
The helmets and big rig blasters are a given.
Also, Classics Prime and Jetfire (Voyagers) are a dime a dozen.
Movie Voyager Megatron is pretty much everywhere lately. If this keeps up, this may set a new record in my area for best shelf warmer. Hmm ... he has ice on him though, so he's a shelf "cooler."

Classics Astrotrain and Starscream. Lots and lots of those here in our local malls. Also Rodimus, though i haven't seen one lately; maybe i'm just not checking the shelves hard enough.

Here in Cagayan de Oro, Classic Astrotrain still hangs on the pegs even though its been marked down by 25%. Lots of real Gear too.
