With the current distribution issues many collectors have been experiencing some thought Generations Warpath might not see a retail release at all, but it appears there is still a glimmer of hope! TFW2005 member shiftypenguin actually found him at retail at a Ames, Iowa Target. Good luck!

In the meantime why not have a look at Generations Warpath in the Seibertron galleries?

Well, of course it was. I just got mine from BBTS yesterday and ordered 2 off of HTS this morning.... :grin:

Surprising, but not shocking. The deluxe toys are the only things being stocked well in the U.S.

Sweet, Iowa! I live about 60 miles away from Ames, so I might be able to find him soon, if I'm lucky!

Damn, no wonder they are out of stock, you have them all

J/K. I really think this figure looks like a win, I would just like them to be common enought that I can pick a second one up for the kids without feeling like I am keeping one from someone else, just like Blurr and Cybertronian Soundwave.

Yeah... I'll be looking for him now at Targets around me.

Just a little something to keep in mind: some of the posters on TFW2005 are debating if this is real, or if someone bought an extra Warpath online, and returned it to a Target to get a refund for an earlier purchase. Not saying I agree with them, just putting it out there.

Cool, but mine just shipped from BBTS.

Hopefully that is a sign that some other hard to get characters will show up too.

That's one of the dumbest things I've ever heard on a Transformers board (and I've read plenty of dumb things from the fandom). Common sense would tell anyone to hawk it on ebay or TFWs Junkion Exchange.

I call B.S.

EDIT: If anyone expects to find these guys at retail, save your gas and get Warpath from BBTS.

I still haven't even seen Jazz or Tracks in my stores yet here in Western New York!! I did buy the United Tracks, but still c'mon. My Walmarts only recently finally got a good supply of Generations Megs, Soundwave, Dirge & Blurr; 6 months after everyone else. Guess I'll see Warpath around here 'bout Christmas time if I'm lucky :-(

Waiting on Warcry and Flameblast? I've had those in my POL for a least a week.

What I'm wondering is why RTS figures seem to be more scarce than Generations. The two lines coincide with each other, and later waves of Generations are showing up in stores.

Did Wave 1 of Generations not clear out fast enough, and most stores just decided to skip RTS to avoid clogging their shelves?

Ordered 2 at Hasbro Toy Shop yesterday and they actually shipped them out the same day! Almost makes up for them not having a Sgt Slaughters, hmmm maybe not, still mad at them for that.

They've taken so long to release Warpath that I actually don't think I want him anymore.

I was really excited when he was announced and even more so as the images were released and the reviews on Youtube but it's been so long that I have legitimately lost interest.

Cool. Anyone else who finds it -please post here so we know where else it's hitting. HTS was sold out by the time i saw the news post. I got a G1 reissue Tracks coming in the mail that I'm excited about, but I'll jump at the chance to get Warpath too!!!

KAPOWWW!!!!!

Well thats great, I hope im doing the right thing by waiting untill they start stocking my local stores because im not paying $20 online for Warpath,Thundercracker etc., or maybe they may never stock warpath and the others at my local stores! :BANG_HEAD:

Wow. who's the pretty lady in your sig Jetfire?? Yeah, online shipping is killer. Paid $11 on TFsource for a G1 Tracks. Got him today - can't wait to open!!!!!!! (Doing all my work/errands first & savin him for the reward!)

Utterly deceptive twaddle speak says I.

If the closest Wal-Mart is any indication, I won't be seeing Warpath at all. Or Thundercracker. Or anything past Wave 2.

G1 Tracks is so beautiful I almost cried when I saw him. Transformed him once and messed around with his weapons. He came 100% complete. Just curious to know if the missile launchers should have the triggers facing up or down -and in jet mode if the arms should face forward or backwards? Love this guy. Put him in the HoF now!!!!!!!

Now where are those Warpath reports?!?!?!?!!?

I got mine from BBTS on Friday. Scale is a little off (smidge shorter than Tracks)for being a tank and the transformation is a bit weak (gaping holes above the hands) but Im still stoked to finally have Warpath in my collection
