    I like the looks of jetfire and prowl, but mainly I grabbed them for my son who is 5. I would agree they are geared toward s younger audience.

    Jetfire looks to be the best of the bunch. Is this true?

    Yeah, i would think so. Just legion figures enlarged basically.

    Jetfire looks cool to me anyway, Prowl is pretty good too. Prowl is the only one so far that has knee articulation, but thats from a transformation joint.

    0922170116.jpg Just found Nitro & Scorn voyagers at the Macedon walmart. They also have 2 each of wave 5 TR deluxes: Windblade, TwinTwist, & Misfire. Already have those, but grabbed Nitro & Scorn. Only one of each of them.
    Also have TR voyagers Octane, Blitzwing, Megatron, & Optimus Prime. Blitz's box is slighly damaged, figure looks ok. The others are ok.

    Thanks for the info marvel b! Checked the Herkimer Walmart 20 minutes east of me this evening and grabbed the last Windblade, Twintwist & Misfire! LOL, there's still a Wolfwire if anyone's interested! Distribution on TR have been total garbage! Wave 4 only appeared at my local Target once and that assortment didn't have Quake or Krok! It's getting to the point where I might bite the bullet & pay the $17.99 at my local Walgreens for them! I'm really trying not to!

    There is one slugslinger (I bought the other), two dragon storms, one tlk leader megatron, two sixshots and a whole lot of tr deluxes at Midtown Comics in Times Swuare. The delxues are $18.99 but there is a sale today, so they were $16. Dragonstorm was $57 though.

    I can’t believe I found a slugslinger in one of the us’s busiest shopping areas ><

    Any wave 5 deluxes in the Capital District?

    Walmart in Albany was a bust. They had one each of Blitzwing and Octane but other than that, nothing.

    I'll check the glenmont Walmart tomorrow and let you know.

    Did you happen to see if the Albany store had the little Heman figures?

    Local Walgreens have the Marvel Legends exclusive of the Human Torch in stock, so hopefully the Clones 2 pack isn't far behind!

    I actually believe they do! I may be confusing Albany's store for Latham's but I'm almost positive both did. One also had a few captain Picard and Borg ones too.
