    TFA Leader Class and R.O.C OP out in the U.S.

    Hey guys, decided to hunt a little tonight and did pretty good. I stopped at the Aurora TRU and picked up Mudflap. I also met a couple of TF fans and made 2 new friends!!!!!! that I believe will be joining us in the TFW family.

    I also stopped at the Abeline and exposition Wal mart for no more reason than I had a little extra time on my hands. Boy am I glad I did. I found 1 each of Leader class Bulkhead and Megatron. I then went to the Thornton Wal mart to pick up some Groceries and found 2 ROC Optimus Prime. Both were grabbed (mine I got with a little help from my Friends)! Here some pics below.

    Also 2x classics legends Starscream, Red Alert, and Onslaught were located at the Commerce City Wal mart(all snagged).

    I've got my eyes on Megatron. I like the looks of ROC Prime, but I think I'll pass because I'm gonna save up some money. I'd rather get Voyager Bulkhead instead.

    They all look cool, but I'm gonna only shoot for Megs. Savin' fer Classics 2.0.

    Can't wait to find Leader Megs in my area. It seems Habro's releasing everything so fast, which is a bit of a double edged sword(we get all the stuff we want, but they're killing our wallets)

    I have a question about Rollout Prime. I am assuming he is a leader size, if not, a little larger than that? Also, one thing was slightly bothering me about it, the boxes on his hips...what is up with those? I am just determining if it is worth it to me.

    Most of the Target's I have been going to have had a single peg with a couple Animated deluxes on them. Since they don't want to use all the other empty pegs I think we need to just keep moving them somewhere else so they keep restocking the one peg and eventually maybe something new will show up.

    Nice! got that that Megatron about a week ago up here and it is NICE! so he should definitely be on a lot of must buy lists for Animated, Bulkhead's good too but not nearly has the awesome factor as that Megatron. That Prime though is an instant pass unfortunately, Ultimate BB round two anyone?

    The only Animated figure that I'm buying so far, will be Leader Megatron...

    Grimlock and Snarl are on the fence for me...

    The way the computer works, they normally have to sell and the computer reorders them automatically. If they don't sell, then they won't be ordered nor will they get pulled from the back.

    Even if they try to order manually, if the computer says the store has so many in stock already then they won't get them.

    Target is pissing me off though by having sales on items that they're either not getting in stock, or not enough are being put out.

    It's odd that the toy aisle hasn't had a revision yet to add more pegs and shelf space for the animated figs. The endcap covers the voyagers, but there's nothing for deluxe. They're normally just putting them out on the movie pegs.

    Those frickin FAB's are clogging the shit out of pegs at Targets all over. The original versions did OK, but the repaints have tanked bigtime!

    I'd say "bring on the Leaders" and such, but I know it will still be 2-3 weeks until there's even a chance I'll see them.

    Those leader figs are nice! Must have now!

    I'm also glad to hear that Universe is showing up elsewhere besides TRU. Hopefully, they'll start showing up at my local Walmarts or Targets soon.

    Agreed.

    My Target no longer has a peg for TFA deluxes with price tag. All I could find was a lonely C-Prime trying to find a place to fit in...

    I think it's lame Deep Space Starscream shares the same peg as the TFA voyagers, I think they should have left him in the front near the check stands like they did with the allspark powered target exclusive canisters.
