A lot of big news about exclusives is coming out of BotCon this year. Earlier this morning we reported G1 accurate Masterpiece Starscream figure will be a Wal-Mart exclusive. Not to be out done Target will have two new exclusives of their own. Hasbro has officially announced on Transformers.com that both Transformers Movie Jazz and Starscream G1 repaints will be exclusive to Target. Read the announcement here.

Who wants to hear me moan about Hasblo again?

I'll just say I'm sick and tired of being shat on by Hasblo.

Always with the Target Exclusives, huh Hasbro? I still don't have robo-vision prime.

Jazz looks nice.

Son of a bitch. Starscream and Jazz are both figures I WOULD have bought had they not pissed on the fan base, again. It seems that all the good figures lately are some kind of exclusive that pretty much guarantees that I won't find them in Quebec.

Screw this. I'm going to buy some Lego.

I hope the bios are correct going forward, Jazz will be back and Strscream will lead the Decepticons in part II until Megs returns. That's a good storyline already.

I cannot say I am suprised these are Target exclusives since all the official images before this were found on Target's Robo Vision Website.

F***ing exclusives!

No, don't worry about it. I'm not going to give them my money as it'll probably just lead to more good-looking Target exclusives.

I'll spend my money elsewhere.

I've got some serious Transformer - buying to do this summer. Good. For me, that's normal life.

Time for a road trip to Maine I guess.

You know, I'd agree with you. But then when I thought "what would I buy instead of the movie figures" the only thing that popped into my mind was "Star Wars" damn Hasbro and their monopoly over all good toy-lines.

I know what you mean. Good think Hasbro doesn't own Lego nor Stikfas.

Im getting sick of target exclusives. The target over here never restocks so its hard to find the exclusives. Why cant they just be normal figures? Hasbro stop with the store exclusives already! Not evreyone has a Target near them.

Except for me. I actually have 3.

Only 2 miles?

I go to Target for all of my Transformers needs, so maybe I'll pick one of these up!

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! why god, why?!? guess i'm gonna have to buy a regular Jazz and repaint it myself.

Not realy suprized. I look forward to clearance time!

At least with Target exclusives, you can simply go to any Target and buy them at fair prices, which is more than I can say about the rip-off Botcon exclusives.

Bring on them classic colors!!! Jazzy looks snazzy, and Starscreamy looks like a classic meany. Though I'll most likely pass on SS and spring for the Thundercracker instead.

Oh, and I have to travel about 15 miles to my "local" Target. About 35 miles to my "local" Wal-Mart, and roughly 40 miles to my "local" Toys "R" Us.

I hate Target. I hate exclusives. Thats one sharp double-edged sword there.

Its some time till September though, if theres a toy dry spell in there, i might pick these up. Jazz looks so cool.

im glad i waited.

I thought you said, no matter the paint scheme, Starscream still looks like crap:shock:

Damnit, no frigin' Targets in Canada...........
