Walmart Toxitron Collection G2 Grimlock Sighted at US Walmart

Almost all of these are decos that never got released during G2. Hasbro believed that we want these unreleased decos and it gives Walmart "leading name" characters like Jazz, Mirage, and Grimlock that they can market because their marketing people still support that th[facebook][/facebook]at is important to the casual tf buyer.

Rumor is that Dead End and Sideswipe are shortpacked. So yet again the Combiner dude is gonna be hard as he'll to find

Liking the colors but for the price i'd rather wait on a mp grimlock repaint.

If anyone decides to do a part swap with the translucent yellow neck on this and the gold on the 86 release to make a G1 accurate toy put up a post!

Well that didn't take long. After the Toxitron Leader Class G2 Grimlock was found at U.S. retail, we now have a confirmed sighting of the Deluxe Class figures from the same line! Mirage, Sideswipe, Laser Cycle, Dead End and Jazz (in their unreleased G2 decos) were all found at a Walmart in Salt Lake City, Utah, by yours truly. After picking up Jazz, Mirage, and Dead End, it looks like the rumors of Dead End and Sideswipe being shortpacked are true. There were 2 each of Jazz, Mirage, and Laser Cycle, and one each of Sideswipe and Dead End, making any potential G2 Menasor harder to complete.



This sighting leaves only Toxitron himself, and Voyager Cloudcover as the remaining figures in this line not yet sighted in the U.S.

Are you looking forward to finding these figures in your local Walmart? Let us know what you think below!

I MUST have that Grimlock, though I wish they had more of those metallic tiger strips going up his back. If I can mix that colour myself, I may just add them personally.

He's not G2, he's G1.

And Walmart stores don't stock Titans.

And he wasn't an unreleased redeco.

1) Huh? Given the colour scheme. I never realised he wasn't G2.

2) I don't know/care what a Walmart is? But, to be honest, I think Spreem would be better suited as a redeco/retool of Tarn.

3) I know that. I was just getting my hopes up that with all the weird and wacky of G2 coming out, for some reason. That Spreem might end up among them.

I can see it. Much more than Bludgeon.

There has been of news concerning the Walmart Exclusive G2 Themed Line. The deluxes, leader (Grimlock) and voyagers were found in the US all of a sudden. For those wanting all the info you can on these toys and their special decos, we have in hand images below. We also have video reviews comparing them to previous decos/molds along with a look at the box art.
The rest of the wave should be up for pre-order shortly. Please be aware that Sideswipe and Dead End are shortpacked while the others come 2 per case.

Which Walmart?! I'm in Salt Lake too!

Baffles me why Walmart thought Lasercycle was worthy of being 2 per case over a popular character like Sideswipe and a Combiner member. Not surprising mind you, not after the stuff they did in Velocitron, but still baffling.
