Transformers Power of the Primes Wave 2 Prime Masters at US Retail

Posted by Va'al Mar 11, 2018 at 11:17am CDT 20,655 views
Thanks to a tip from newest Seibertron signed-up member PatriotPrime, we have a sighting for the second wave of Transformers Power of the Primes Prime Master figures - including Alpha Trion and Alchemist Prime with their Decoy Suits - in a Kroger over in Ronceverte, West Virginia!

The figures were mixed in with the Easter things in the store, and scan at a price of $6.99 USD each, with plenty to be found according to the images sent to us. If you come across this or any other Transformers toy sightings, make sure to let fellow collectors know via the Sightings Database and the Sightins section of the Energon Pub discussion boards!

I found Wave 2 Prime Masters at a Kroger grocery store in Ronceverte, WV today.
They were mixed in with the Easter Stuff at $6.99 ea.

WTF!?


Nothing saying we won't get these figures, they just won't be a part of PotP.

Yeah, we have seen everything for POTP aside from exclusives. Hasbro confirmed it ends with wave 4 and there isnt much new in wave 4 aside from Novastar.

The next show is SDCC in only 4 months and they will reveal some of the new War for Cybertron and BB movie toys there.

In retrospect, if we knew how the whole Evolution-thang was gonna work, I would've voted for Megatron -- we could have then had Galvatron!

I skipped his recent TR incarnation, since it didn't do it for me, and I still have DX9's Tyrant as my go-to....I am still hoping they plan to give him the MP treatment. But I am glad they got Megatron right with MP-36.

Here's hoping for some surprise announcements soon!

It's true--got these at Kroger in Jackson, TN last night. A bit higher than they should be at $6.99, but they also had all the wave 1 prime masters as well as the two new wave two prime masters. Now, let's bring on wave 3 and end this puppy lol

Holy crud guys, I didn't know this was news! I found a bunch of them at my Kroger last week for $2.25.

I actually bought three of each and sold them already. :oops: It's the only time I've ever engaged in scalping and I feel kind of bad about it. I guess I really didn't make too much profit off of them. $2.25 retail + $3.50 postage + $0.75 for the envelope + the ebay and paypal fees... and because I felt bad about scalping I priced them $1-2 under what everyone else on ebay was selling them for...

Guess those make sense as Easter Basket toys as they would be good Christmas stocking stuffers. This might make me rethink which aisles I search when I go Transformer hunting.

By the way, how are the clear parts on other people's dinobots doing so far? Since, you know, clear plastic is a goddamn self-destructing nightmare.

That would be swirly metallic plastic, clear plastic breaks are less common (not to mention less dramatic) than the hype may suggest. If they were, look at how many cars, jets and whatnot with clear windows there are. Just be careful manipulating joints made from that stuff, and don't put them under continued stress.

Only the main attachment points inside the chest and the dino neck. The latter is supported by opaque plastic on either side of each point. The ratchets in the shoulders have less give to offset the sturdiness of the clear plastic.

Speaking of which: Moonracer's shoulders are clear plastic. Hope they don't seize up.

My biggest Dinobot issue is Swoop's face not wanting to stay in place while in Dino mode. Keep in mind the only POTP Dinobots I have are Swoop & Slug who I've been displaying next to Henkei Grimlock since I haven't picked up POTP Grim yet or any of Wave 2.

Yeah I never even heard of Kroger but its a sign that they are out in the wild and trickling down our way slowly. I bit on the voyagers online, but I'm going to hold out for the deluxes and these little guys in retail.

I saw the wave 2 leaders at 2 different TRUs, so with all these wave 2 sightings does this mean those of us who have yet to see wave 1 will not? Rodimus is the only figure i planned on getting and its starting to look like ill never find him
