    Found Cliffjumper and Nemesis Prime today at my Target in Owensboro, Ky. They were doing a reset of the toy aisle. Those were the only those 2 in the case, 4 of each!

    I hope not. But this was the only one they had out when I was in there. Could have been more in stockroom.

    I wish they remember to paint the rest of Gears' head red.
    Also most stores atm are flooded with disks from that nonsensical revision wave.

    That was a revision wave? I was under the assumption that that was just leftover crap that was buried in the stockroom?

    I'm still hunting Tailgate as well and that still leaves Gears and Acid Storm unaccounted for.

    My store is flooded with Primes and Bumblebees as well. The employee doing the reset said the Hasbro rep would be in soon to pull them and have them replaced with the newer wave. He was nice enough to go ahead and let me buy the 2 I needed.

    :lol  Hasbro's master distribution plan at work, once again! :lol  (Oh, I know: let's blame the retailers and remember Hasbro's absolute innocence in all retail matters! :lol ).

    Here's hoping a mass of these arrive in discounters by November! :D 
    They purposefully made Cliffjumper's head like that (you know that, right?). It's a hideous cross between G1 and Prime! :puke: 
    Cause, y'know, I always said to myself, "Cliff is cool... but he needs more Prime design!" Seriously. From like 1984, I was thinking this.
    Check TRU. They're the only ones I've seen that stocked those. I keep expecting Target to get some EVENTUALLY... but it looks like they're skipping that wave AND the Gears/Acid Storm wave! :lol 
    Count on Wal-Mart? No... :banghead: 
    Can someone start making milk cartons for these guys? :lol

    Whoa... that's seriously interesting info.

    So Hasbro re-collects unsold merch, now??? :eek: 
    Cause I'm always wondering where the clearances are at!

    But then this also points to a high eventuality of seeing both the discs and Legends Optimus/BB at discounters soon. :(  Not really an exciting thing, considering how little people want those...

    Man, I haven't even found Tailgate yet. The newest thing I saw was one Swerve at a Walmart fifty miles from my home. My local Walmart is still absolutely packed with Prime and Bumblebee, so I really hope they don't skip the Tailgate wave in favor of even more Primes and Bumblebees, even if they are differently colored.

    Wait, what about Gears and Acid Storm? They were supposed to be in the wave before Cliffjumper and Nemesis Prime.

    Awesome. I never see boxes on the floor in any of my Targets. At Walmart, I often get to open boxes but not Target

    My feeling when none of this is going to be at my local Walmarts and Target, ever.
