Really curious about when the NEST figures will hit shelves and does anyone think that they will make it before walmart $10.00 sale ends??

Most Wanted NEST figure(s) list:

Bludgeon
Dirge
Recon Ironhide
Mindwipe

As I understand it, Walmart is using the $10 sale to clear inventory to make way for the next waves, which will be sold at normal retail prices. It's unlikely Walmart is going to continue the sale for new figures. However, I just know that's how Walmart operates in my neck of the woods in Canada. Maybe other locations would sell new products at discounted prices...but I doubt it.

It's probably going to differ from chain to chain and from store to store. When they DO come, I don't think they'll be $10. I think that price is only being used to clear inventory.

My local Super Walmart has been stocking everything in large supplies since they opened this summer. They've got everything: HA figs, Exclusive Ultras, Arcee, Thrust, Gears, you name it. I even saw a Leader Jetfire there the other day. So I'm confident they'll have the NEST figures early.

Yes they will (or already have), as I have already owned ROTF NEST Bludgeon. I also saw Recon Ironhide but didn't get him.

Thanks, but you're in Singapore and we're in North America, so they're completely difference markets and they're on different release schedules.

In all honesty, if they show up before X-mas, that would be terrific... there's a chance that It might not happen. Animated is slowly getting pushed our there, and I'm not sure if N.E.S.T. will also be ones to do so. But heck, who knows, it would be great if they did release it before X-mas... although the toy stores are going to go f-ing crazy.
