RodimalToyota strikes again! After
finding HA Roadbuster last week now he's come up with the Wal-Mart exclusives Deluxe Optimus Prime and racecar themed
Sidearm Sideswipe repaint in Tucson, AZ. Not only that he scored them for the sale price of $8.98! Happy hunting!

Welp, time to ask my in-laws go to looking for the Deluxe Optimus Prime. He's perfect alongside the Protoform toy from the first movie. Got the same versions for Starscream already

Is there anything special about that Optimus other than being deluxe?

Yet another MechTech Weapon. This time, it's an axe.

I think it's the same one that comes with Mudflap, haven't checked.

I'm liking the Sideswipe repaint very much. And Optimus as a deluxe....finally! My son has been bugging me about him and now I can affordably buy him one! But, why do you guys get the 8.98 price, they are 9.98 here?!?!

I really want to get my hands on that Sideswipe. Although if I do, he wont be "Sideswipe" anymore. Time to start coming up with some new name possibilities

They Had the BumbleBee too, but I'm not paying over a $1 for a 2007 repaint. plus he just comes with the Wave3 DOTM Nitro BumbleBee mechtech weapon.
The Deluxe Prime's weapon is the Mudflap mechtech.
Funny enough, I went to the Target next door and found the wv3 voyagers and grabbed a Fireblade prime, arguably the best mechtech weapon this side of Japan.

Dang I was hoping that this Optimus would get a better mechtech weapon instead of getting that same as Mudflaps oh well I'm still picking him up the first chance I get. And I think this repaint of Sideswipe looks more like he could pass as a Bluestreak figure or something lol.

I found Walmart Exclusive Sideswipe in Walmart once. "In another persons basket" I had to do a double take to realize what it was. At first I thought it was a wrecker that I hadn't seen on the forums yet, but then saw sideswips and the sticker for Walmart exclusive.
This guy that had it must have beat me to it by maybe 5 minutes.

Hopefully that strategy works for Hasbro. I'd been hating on all the various sizes they put out instead of making 2-3 sizes extremely well. I've since changed my opinion and like the idea of everyone being able to have bots to play with. I only hope they don't overproduce these and they stay warming the peg aisles like the ROTF blisters.

I still haven't decided whether I'm going to get teat Sideswipe or not, but I might. I really want that mold, and I think the color scheme's pretty cool. What I really wish, though, is that Hasbro would repaint the Sidearm Sideswipe in black with silver stripes and a silver grill, and dark purple windows (so that it would look like the repaint of HA Sideswipe, but without the ugly blue and brown in robot mode).

Are You ^&%$#@^%$ kidding me?
Deluxes here in The Netherlands cost 19,95 euro's. That's 29,17 for a deluxe, normal store prices... everywhere!
It'd be cheaper to ebay them from the US then walk to the store across the street.
I must say, Deluxe prime looks better then voyager prime. It's making my head hurt which one to get.
