The Energon Pub

I decided to stop at the Target on Balboa in San Diego, and amongst everything I found only one of these babies:



That was the only one there, and no sign of the other 5-pack or the wave 2 2-packs, but the sale went through so it's legit. Yay me.

Yeah, I got the Rallybots a few days ago at my Target in Culver City, CA. They had the Destructicons too. I'm fairly dissapointed with the Rallybots, the drag car doesnt even automorph correctly, the foot panels don't pop our correctly. I had some issues with doubleclutch as well, I had to exchange and though the replacement was better, the drag car still suffered from the same problems. Let me know how yours is, I'm curious if its ALL rallybots that suffer these issues. You can read more about my experience in an earlier topic here called PCC Rallybots first impressions.

I'm curious about the drag racer's issues too, I haven't seen wave 2 down here in Texas, but every discussion about the Rallybots I've seen online has noted that the drag car's automorph is broken.

EVERY SINGLE limb ball joint was loose on Doubleclutch. To the point his arms were falling off before I could even attach the drones. Put super glue on all 4 ball joints and it's alot better now. Had the same SAME EXACT problem with red drag car leg drone...I had to manually open it the rest of the way to get it to set properly. Frustrated the piss out of me because the Rallybots was the one I was wanting for.

Even after that I'm still addicted to these things...more towards the commander 2 packs.

Please tell me you're in San Antonio! This city in particular seems to be slow in getting new TF stock...

It's not just you, I've had all those problems too. I think it's just a faulty mold, a shame because I was really hoping for these guys too :\ But yeah, the superglue trick worked for me. once I got him all together he looks really nice though!

Like I mentioned before, I went back and returned mine and got a different one, and his joints were a lot better... so some of them came out decent, but it sounds like there are more defects than normal.

The Wal-Mart I work at in Albany Georgia has 5 different ones. Rallybots, the Destructicons, and the other three are the ones that supposed to be the Aerialbots, the Combaticons, and either the Stunticons or the Protectobots, I'm not sure. And we have a lot of Drifts. Like 10 or 15.

Probably Wave 5 or beyond. Wave 3 is repaints of the Wave 1 figures with the limbs and minicons rearranged. Presumably, Wave 4 will be remixes of Wave 2.
