Also amazon.com, which charges a few bucks more, but you get free shipping. If you have amazon prime, even better.

Religious subliminal messaging?

But yeah, how do you think he would look without all the holes? And why are they there to begin with?

Optimus Maximus is full of holes because Hasbro wanted to make a gigantic Cyberverse playset but for roughly the same cost as the Cyberverse Ark. While I'm not entirely crazy about the results, I must applaud them for the effort. To get a sense of just how big Maximus is, here he is with Leader Striker OP:

I am going to pass on this since I have been getting rid of my smaller than Deluxe size figures. I am sticking with Deluxe size and larger only now.
Thanks for the heads up though. All news about TF toys is appreciated.

Kmart also has him in stock on line.

Have already found/purchased him here in Nashville, TN @ KMart of all places. And he was also $32.99, which was surprising, given their usual mark-ups like TRU. Been about a week ago when I got him. Saw the Target listing about 2 weeks ago.

not worth 30 for me now, but if it goes cheaper i may grab it

I was a bit enthusiastic about this figure, aaaaaaand it's gone.
It looks like a bionicle/gundam model kit/prototype thing. Not a Transformer. And Hasbro is going from solid to light weak soft plastic. No, not for me, just spent 270 on a SDCC Bruticus, I'm broke, can't eat for weeks.
