    I got Inferno for Christmas (online) but haven't seen him in store yet, and I certainly haven't seen Leo Prime/Overload. Leo Prime is somewhat appealing, if only for the head remold. Overload is a literal waste of space, at least if he'll be anything like Dropshot. I have seen so many of that toy on shelves it makes me crazy. And now we get the repaint, in similarly dull colors, that will probably do the same thing. I feel that of everything on shelves right now, Universe Voyagers have been the biggest duds. The only ones really worthwhile are Inferno and Blades (maybe Leo Prime). The rest - shelf warmers. Uninteresting ones, at that.

    Man, why can't I find these at my Target?

    Oh right, the Voyager shelf is overstuffed with eight Treadbolts. :banghead:

    i saw inferno a week before Christmas at toys r us.

    i noticed a starscream in that pic. I've only seen one and it was in the hands of another guy around my age (33)... my girlfriend wanted to look at the damn air filters first... then she laughed when i told her we should look at the toys first... when we got there the dude and his girlfriend had already grabbed it. i told my girl she should be ashamed of herself for laughing at me and missing this opportunity.

    she laughed.

    Just found both of these and Inferno here in town. I was at the same Target yesterday and they weren't out. I only want Leo Prime, but passed on him for Inferno and a much passed over Blitzwing.

    I agree. With Octavius Prime Universe Voyagers are duds. Except for Inferno and Blades. Even though i passed on Blades and bought the Springer Re-paint with sorry ass Ratbat.
