Is it too late to find figures from the RtS line? I went hunting today at K-mart and TJ Maxx and no luck finding them. K-Mart had nothing but DotM and TJ Maxx had only PCC's and RotF stuff.

Are there any other places that would carry them or has that already passed? Will these figures see a new release soon.

I managed to find Wreck-Gar and Lugnut at TJ Maxx. The only figure I really want from that line is Spec.Op. Jazz.

My one local TJMaxx store that is about 13 miles away. has about a dozed last wave RTS Voyagers. that are lugnuts,strafe,solor storm grappel & deep dive. theirs also some last wave PCC 5 Packs & 2 packs.

those RTS Last wave deluxes are very rare,I never seen that many at the discount nor major chain stores. I have yet to see wreckgar & G-2 deluxe prime. all I saw was bumblebee & perceptor.

I had to buy RTS Wreckgar on-line.

Kohls might be worth a try. I saw some RTS figures at one about a week ago.

As the previous posters have mentioned discount retailers such as ROSS, TJ Maxx, Marshall, etc. will probably be your best bet.

Wave 2 never got released here ... So its possible that any stores even in the US never imported it. Or maybe they did, but just forgot to open it after DOTM came along.


Like just how i found generations warpath at TRU after i bought him for $2 more at a collector store

This is a good illustration of one of the first rules I learned about collecting TF's:

Rule #1: If there's a figure you want, get it at soon as it comes out, or as soon afterward as you can. If you're thinking "I'll wait until later and get it when there's a sale or it goes on clearance", you'll be sorry. You can't count on it being available later.

And there's a related rule:

Rule #1(b): If there's a figure you want that's no longer in stores but available on eBay, get it as soon as you can. It's never going to get cheaper; it will only get more expensive as time goes on.

I was just at TRU on Saturday and they still had some RTS figures hanging on the hooks.

I've never been in there when they weren't doing that, but even with that in account, they still seem to be a lot pricier than any other store. But they do sent out $10 gift cards quite often so if you can get on their mailing list and get those, it's a good deal.

Kohl's is just about the only place I've seen RTS deluxes. Voyagers I've only seen at TJ Maxx.

Was in Walmart a few weeks ago and they did have a bunch of the later Generations deluxes, several Warpaths and Wheeljacks, and at least one Thundercracker, so maybe there's hope. No RTS, though.

I've seen the Legends Starscream, Optimus, and Prowl at one of those toy stores that deals with educational toys in a mall.

I also saw a few at marshalls & TJMAXX,I only saw a few prowl's & a few Gold bumblebee's.

I found a Wreck Gar hidden at Ross a few days ago. I also got a leader Prime and Grapple there.

Amazon.com or Ebay will have them for a slight mark-up.

My local Kohl's has jazz and tracks loading up the pegs, or did last time I was there

also the crave marketplace has had a large number to RTS jazz listed
