New In Box Image of Transformers Earthrise Bluestreak

Well that looks a lot better than that render that was floating around at the very least (the Smokescreen head and weird baby blue legs had me worried). Which is good because Bluestreak's my favorite deco out of the datsun brothers. Actually now that I'm thinking about it I can't decide who I like more between Bluestreak and Prowl. Oh well whatever I'm going to try to get both of them anyways.

So with the new image of Bluestreak, wave 4 of Earth Rise is real!

Not really. Bluestreak is more than likely a Walgreens exclusive like Ratchet last year

I'm guessing both are more exclusives. That is the trend right now.

Plus, almost the entire Takara run of figures are TTMall exclusives, so there is precedent for the amount of exclusives.

Oh and a bunch of the smaller classes are reissues. there are only 3 Earthrise original molds in the battlemaster class, and only 4 micromasters.

We had some Micromaster news today and we are now topping it off with a sighting. Wave 2, which includes the Race Track Patrol and Astro Squad have been found at Target in New York City. This was posted on Reddit. The Earthrise repack of Transformers Siege Micro Masters Direct-Hit & Power Punch aka the Battle Squad. They were found at a Target in Columbus Ohio by Spartan Prime, who posted it on the TFW2005 forums. It is unclear if these are part of wave 3 (or even wave 2) or just a solid case to put extra stock on the shelves.
If you would rather buy wave 2 online, some were in stock earlier at Entertainment Earth and they are being restocked soon. Those are the Race Track Patrol and Astro Squad. You can see the listing here.

See? That's Bluestreak's head! I guess since he got Prowl's last time, what goes around comes around. I might have to get two of these to swap the Siege head as well.

WFC-E32, that lands him in the exclusive section before Wave 3, with Pounce & Wingspan at E30 and Ironhide & Prowl at E31. Wave 3 starts at E34 with Trailbreaker.

Wave 2 micromasters? I haven't seen wave 1 yet!

I’ve had some difficulty finding exclusives at Target and Walgreens, although I was able to attain Ratchet at my local store. I’ll grab Blue Streak, although I’m crossing my fingers I don’t have to pay the scalper markup. I missed Red Wing because my Target Red Card expired from lack of use (and it was never in my local store). Thus far, I’ve resisted paying $80 to a scalper, although I did pay the a small scalper markup for the Rainmakers and Villains 2 pack. *Shrugs*

What Barricade? I don't think he's getting an update in Earthrise

Not that I’ve heard of. Maybe we’ll get something down the line with Kingdom, Netflix, or Selects?
