The Energon Pub

I swung by my local TRU in Chandler, AZ only to find the shock of my life. A wonderful assortment of Fall of Cybertron voyager figures. ripe for the plucking amongst the madness that is holiday shopping.


I couldn't tell how many they had originally but when I was there I saw

1 X Powerdive
2 X Megatron
1 X Soundwave
1 X Soundblaster
1 X Frenzy/Ratbat combo

The voyagers were $22.99 and the disc figures were $10.00 a set. I purchased Soundwave and the discs and the total came out to $30 (after BOGO 40% promo they were having). All in all, it was a great haul! I can't wait for the next wave of figures to come rolling in.

Sorry for the crappy quality photos, took them in my car in the parking lot. Was way too excited with my find.

Groovy!!!!

Western U.S., of course. Could be weeks before we see them on the East Coast. Last summer I found Prime RiD Bulkhead and Starscream in Colorado months before either figure appeared in my home town (in PA).

When you say Powerdive and Megatron, I'm assuming you're talking about the "Asia exclusive" Generations figures, not FoC, right?

Correct.

I gave them a once over and decided they weren't for me.

Unboxing the Soundwave figure was really cool. I didn't know the discs can "auto" transform. When they're in disc mode, they're locked tightly and then spring to life with the push of a button.

Sweet

Well, I was wrong! Went to TRU at lunch time today; they had Prime RID Ultra Magnus and Thundertron, FoC Soundwave and Soundblaster, all five members of FoC Bruticus, GDO Megatron, and all of the GDO Deluxes. No sign of the FoC Data Disks, though.

I picked up Thundertron, Ultra Magnus, Soundblaster, and a 2nd Wheelie since my first one had two left feet.

Oh, and everything was BOGO 40% off!

They also had a MP Optimus, but the tape on top of the package was broken, and it looked like some ***hole had stolen the little driver figure and left everything else. Why is that a $10 USB memory card comes in an impenetrable plastic shell that requires industrial strength shears to open, but a $130 toy comes in a box sealed with Scotch tape?
