Evolution of a Hero in stock / Target

Postby Iconicon » Mon Oct 08, 2007 7:15 pm

Just picked up two of them at my local Target in Florida. The customer service counter checked 2 other stores in town and they also had some in stock. There was a total of 8 at the store near me. Keep an eye out for them.

I didn't see another post of this so if it was all ready posted sorry for the double.

Sorry everyone for the repost. Didn't read the "Evolution Delayed" post that all ready has this in it.

I was just excited to find something new at the store.

Thanks for the news anyway.

By the way, does anyone else think if we're talking Evolution of Bumblebee, the 76 version should be old and beat up with dirty marks, the 09 version should actually be clean and pristine?

sort of in a way, it goes from a tag along character from g1, to a beat down old classics camaro with courage and heart, into ahot and stylish concept camaro bumblebee. but this doesnt involve g1, but I guess, it sorta does, a old beaten down car, into a newly designed up to date hot ass beat down car haha.

Don't come to me about this. I cannot be bothered going to check at Target for nothing. This happened to me the last time.

The only reason I might be going to Target is to get Ultimate Bumblebee there and cancel the Lay-Buy for the K-Mart one!

Here's a couple of quick pics. My daughter wanted to open hers, so here you go.

My first impression is it feels cheaper than the original deluxe version. The automorph is stiffer to transform. I almost had to force it all the way open. Could just be this one but IMHO it just feels cheaply made.

Someone asked about the damage in bot mode. As you can see it is only on BB's face. Just burn marks. Other than that all the damage is on the car mode itself.

Weapon: Double-Barreled Assault Missile Launcher
The battle damage is only paint apps on the car body parts and BB's head. The acutal mold is unchanged.

Now that someone has these, can anyone say if the battle-damage paint is easily removed? People have taken it off 20th Prime. I liked it on him, but not on '08 BB!
