Purchased a few of the new figures but also picked up this miss pack of Sentinel Prime in an Optimus Prime box. Anyone know if this is a common mistake going around??

With toy swapping being a common practice, it’s more probable its a swap than a packing mistake

While Target had most of the Transformers One toys earlier than other retailers, Walmart is rolling out display areas for the Toyline. They have toys we’ve already covered, like the well received Prime Changers, but also the second set of Cog Changers (One Steps) along with the cube battle toys.
The images below are from Daimo, and show a Walmart in Virginia.

Thank you for responding
The only reason I ask is that the box does not look like it was tampered with at all. The box is clean with no signs of being opened and the tape seal looks like it has never been removed. It's clean and identical in placement to the other figures I bought.
If it is a swap, oh well, still a really cool figure!! Thanks again!

And, in a few months, all this garbage will be available at Ollie's, Big Lots or Dollar General.

Only thing I've seen at my local Walmart is the big $15 Bumblebee. At least they finally moved all of the ROTB stuff to clearance and updated the pegs for the fall reset.

For some reasons, I keep getting unsubscribed from this thread.

I'll bet this holiday season. You might ask why not last year and that was because the toys were still sort of new and stores were figuring they might get sales.

If you get an update email and don't come to the thread it'll assume you aren't interested and stop sending them. Or at least that's been my experience, but I just look for the red icons to tell me there's been a post and click on the orange icon next to it to be taken to the most recent post since my last visit, I rarely check my email for them.

Everything is normal, even in my profile. I just never get emails from that thread. I wonder if I clicked something wrong and there's no going back?

Man, Transformers day was a bust. It's hosted on Walmart.com which is really strange, it's just a QVC style show with them trying to sell stuff on the store. Started most with Three Zero stuff which is fine (it's hosted by their US president so that's no surprise) and a few One figures from them and Hasbro that are already in stores, but then randomly started talking about ROTB and Earthspark stuff that's long since been on clearance. The "big reveal" they teased through the show is a Bumblebee movie DLX Optimus Prime which I guess is going to be available for only a week on Walmart.com and then sold at other events later on.
So yeah, no new reveals, not worth watching. If you wonder the reason why today is Transformers day it's because Walmart apparently said so.

Well, I personally was complaining it ought to have been on May 8, which was the true 40th anniversary of the brand as a whole.Emerje wrote:Sabrblade wrote:September 17 is when the first episode of the G1 cartoon premiered back in 1984.Emerje wrote:If you wonder the reason why today is Transformers day it's because Walmart apparently said so.

So, I have a bunch of new stuff TFOne toyline related, get ready.
first up, I got Alpha Trion and the Quintesson. Quintesson is alright, and B is fantastic. I wish his ankle tilts actually worked and that area was cleaned up some, but he is really nice. I think B may be my favorite of the 5 Prime Changers
I also got the big energon glow Optimus. And I have to say, he is really really fun. I love the translucent parts, and he is basically fully posable, which is impressive. He is just really fun, I would recommend trying him out
My daughter also loves him
Alpha Trion is also a really fun toy
And finally, I got the takara leader figure. He is pretty nice, though there are a couple things that bug me with him. The face sculpt feels off somehow, and I don't like how small the feet are and how limited the ankles are. Other than that, he is pretty nice, especially the truck mode.
