Solid idea but eh I just don't really want to have 3 of that same mold. That, along with keeping my collection more condensed and selective, and trying to save money and just get the figures I really really want.

Pipes probably has my favorite color scheme, but the other 2 have decent colors and cool enough head sculpts. That and their obscurity makes them more interesting

No notice on my Tigertron yet (yes I am using that spelling to differentiate them), but I am excited for Tony the T to arrive

This one took a while. After being available in limited amounts on the Pulse and Walgreens sites, the Walgreens exclusive Transformers Kingdom Red Alert is now available on Walgreens.com and it does not seem to be in limited amounts like last time. It is available to purchase and ready to ship. The toy is $22.99. It has yet to sell out and it has yet to be seen at brick and mortar locations, so maybe they are simply diverting all their stock of this toy as online only. We'll see. Regardless, we wanted to let you know since many American fans have yet to own this toy. We will all see how long it takes to sell out once this news goes live, we wish you all the best with it!

Thanks for sharing this news!
I wasn't going to be crushed if I didn't get this guy, but I'm more than happy this worked out.

I got mine off the Walgreens website months ago, so I don't know how this is news.

Because after that initial limited availability, he wasn't in stock and there was still demand? Multiple people have already said, "thanks for the heads up, that's how I got him," that's why it's news.

Wow..

I'm glad that I was content with the SIEGE version of Red Alert being that it took this long for this exclusive to finally show up on their own website. I get that it's likely due to COVID and Shipping issues but I shutter to think about how much madness collectors will be going through if the leaks about Minerva being a Walgreen's exclusive are true.

The only thing keeping me from not being as worried is because of so many other figures who rank higher on my to get list (Blitzwing, Sludge, Black Convoy, Crankcase, A3, Omega Guardian, etc.) this year.

The article probably could have been worded slightly differently. Instead of implying it was the first time available on the website, they could have said "it is once again available', or something like that.

Still, it is appreciated because it is a high demand item that has been mostly unavailable except for a brief few hours one day in Pulse, then again a couple months ago on Walgreens.com, only for a few hours before selling out. Why it didn't make it to stores is a mystery, but hopefully everyone who wants a Kingdom Red Alert can now get one.

Thanks, I worded it better, or at least I hope I did

Amazon just charged me for Golden Disk Tigatron. Estimate arrival January 30th. So should be here on Sunday interestingly enough.

My white Tigatron should arrive a bit later than that. :BANG_HEAD:

Awesome

. I just wanted to make sure that I didn't cut down the value of your original news in general. a LOT of people are appreciative of being informed as K Red Alert was super limited on Pulse and WG previously.

It's hard to find a balance, because occasionally I'll see items that come back in stock on Pulse or other places, and just make a post to a thread, because sometimes they were hard to find items, but I'm not the one to judge whether it was newsworthy or not. I'm not the judge here either, but as just a shlub, I think it was defintely helpful to the community overall in this case.
