I was a target and toy r us today and they have really slimed down the transformers section at both stores to just two little rows of hangers and next to ones at target they have started to put hulk stuff as a temperary filler untill animated stuff arrives same thing goes for toy r us although according to a sales person at toy r us transformers movie stuff will be getting a two for one sale in the next couple of weeks to start moving the movie stock out in preperation for june. I don't know about walmart because I don't really shop there as much so if someone can report on the what is going on at walmart that would be great.

Thanks for the heads-up.
If TRU does a 2 fer 1, I may end up getting Wingblade and the reg. Voyager SS...

New this was coming. I saw lots of the Hulk stuff at Target yesterday, and there was a cart full of boxes with Speed Racer toys in the aisle. I'm probably holding off on Movie stuff, even if it comes down to getting two deluxes for 6.99!

Walmart never has two-for-one sales, but Movie stuff could go on clearance, as mine never marks down their prices on TF's.

The truth is it has been more than a year since movie toys were the only thing that was avaliable in the transformers line and with animated coming plus universe and the big summer movies opening it is about time that the stores got off there asses and started to clear space for the next wave of transformers toys.

I may pick up a few of the Basic repaints (Hardtop, Armorhide) if they go on sale. Still don't care for the regular movie figures.

Man, I underrated the Scouts...
I have 6 now, and am trying to hunt down Hardtop and Clocker.
I'm kicking myself, cause I saw Clocker when they were on sale for $7.

I'd look into getting the Allspark scouts, if I find them.

Pegs around here have lots of Storm Surge, Warpath, and Crosshairs.
