    Probably old news, but maybe not. I'm out in San Jose, CA and I picked up Smokescreen and Bumblebee from the 3" Tit. line at a Target for $4.99 apiece. Just FYI! If you demand pics, I may find time to put them on tomorrow, but I assure you I have 'em in hand from retail. If you require validation of my character, go talk to Razerwire. Good luck!

    Edit: Here are the pics as promised!

    This is actually news. Smokescreen, Bumblebee and G1 Optimus Prime thus far have only been available in Hong Kong and from Big Bad Toy Store. If someone else found them at mass retail before you, it didn't make the news.

    Well, I'll be damned! I'm front-page again. However, I didn't say I found the Prime, though (although I wish I had, he's the one I really want), but I assume he was there. I will post pics tonight since I'm at work and forgot to bring my camera with me (sorry!). Hey, Pimpimus Prime, you need some? We've got 'em all in decent abundance....PM me if so! I've got no problem fulfilling orders when I'm able to.

    Although the TF Titaniums have not lived up to my expectations so far I'm willing to give the tiny 3 inch prime a chance.

    Have they fixed the pegs on the stands? I know that wave 1 had the pegs and then I'm pretty sure that wave 2 and 3 didn't.

    I had no idea that Titanium Alt Smokescreen was news. I saw several last night at Target myself. Would've taken pictures if I'd known. I can't imagine the rest of the wave wasn't there, but I didn't really care about Titaniums enough to dig through the pegs.

    Anything you don't see listed as "out in US stores" in this thread yet is most likely news.

    Sorry for the delay, it's gonna be one of "those" days. I won't be off work for some hours yet, but I swear I'll post pics tonight/tomorrow morning, although from the looks of it, interest in these things is extremely low. Still, I said I would and I will!

    From what I understand, yes, but some punk took had already taken him (I guess). He's actually the one I really wanted; for me Prime collection. Back on the hunt I go!
