    Went to TRU hoping to find Powerglide and Onslaught (which I did) and came away with Acid Storm and Galvatron!

    Found at North Riverside TRU in Illinois.

    Enjoy the hunt!

    Cool, I'm all over Acid Storm but I'm waiting to compare Galvatron with the Henkei version.

    Interesting. As far as I know Wave 1 hasn't even hit around me yet, so no worries here. I'll get them eventually. Right now I'm kinda glad stores around me are a bit behind others. Gives me more time to save up for them.

    He's a Deluxe because the Voyager line is reserved for repaints

    Ultra's not though, so thats not the reason.
    Personally I don't care, I'd rather a cheaper Galvatron than a bigger one.

    It's actually that they didn't originally intend for the line to have a voyager class. The repaints being released there are basically filler until the new voyagers come, like Inferno as Foster has mentioned

    And then there' the really lame "there are too many large tank toys already out!" excuse they gave at Botcon

    But he's a box that folds. I would love some great Voyager molds. Saying that; Inferno will probably be dubbed awesome after we see some good images of him

    Wow, that was quick.

    I'm still on the fence on Acid Storm as I love the mold but think that off-green mixed with poopy browns looks terrible.
