Transformers Movie Toys Street Date Lifted?

Posted by Hotrod May 8, 2007 at 6:32pm CDT 16,581 views
TFW2005 is reporting a rumor that the June street date for Transformers Movie toys has been lifted. TFW2005 received this information from an anonymous source. This could explain why store in some areas have been rolling out more then just the Movie Preview figures.

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

Eh, I'll believe it when I see it. That's not to say that the "source" is lying.

I just have bad luck when it comes to believing this stuff.

Ah so that could be the reason why I managed to nab the Protoform Prime and Screamer figure in my local Target store...

even if the street date is lifted, it'll be months before I see them here, my local TRU and Wal Marts have to first get rid of tons of Cybertron and Classics stuff that never moved...

Could this mean clearance sales on TFs in the near future? :PRAY:

The protoforms were officially released on May 2nd, they are pretty much everywhere by now.

EDIT: Sorry double post, my bad.

That's awesome. I'm sick of going to Wal-mart and seeing the same fifty figures. And I think they have to update and put the movie stuff out...I remember something about Hasbro actually sending reps around this time to check.

PS: Skowl, I love the sig. Good work.

All the Target's in my area have the TF's on clearance and just got the Protoform figures..most of the stores around here are so far behind the rest of the country I'll be lucky to see ANY TF toys before UNDERDOG comes out in August...

Wait - if we want to know for sure, someone just needs to call Hasbro customer service.

No I dont belive it. I dont think they will do that. Remember the poster from a while back from a TRU About The midnight toy launch?

Comment by Wheeljack35 May 8, 2007
This would explain why they put Cybertron and the Classics on clearance so early

I see these hitting Target first, considering the clearance sales and the almost empty TF pegs at my stores (excluding the preview figs of course). So, yeah, I kinda believe this. Of course, the same thing could happen to me that happened when I found Spider-Spud. He was on display, but Wal-Mart's computers said "NO SALE" when I scanned it at check out (this was a while back)!
