    This is the first I heard of a preorder page up too. Glad I saw this thread otherwise I wouldn't have known. I've been searching for The Fallen exclusive for weeks now; thanks to this, I won't have to waste gas.

    I wonder if/when the stores will have him in stock. Heading to Target this morning so will check it out. I doubt my store will have it though ....

    Pass. The mold sucks. There's no point in him having an alt-mode that wasn't in the movie. This figure is in the same category as TF1 Scorponok and ROTF Ravage. Also, no staff.

    I see you're getting a little bit of %$^# for posting this as news, but it's news to me, and I'm really glad you shared it. If this guy starts hitting Targets soon, then maybe, by the strange masters of Canadian luck, it'll start hitting Zellers as well (at least I hope so, we get just about every other Target exlusive in our Zellers stores).

    Didn't really dig this guy at first, but with each picture I've seen I've warmed up to the orange highlighting more and more. Now, I'm glad I never found the original release so I can snag this one. Thanks again for posting Dilbertron!

    NOt quite the "Exclusive" figure I was hoping for. I wished they could repaint him more closely to the movie.

    His name has been lost to the ages. He had a name once, but it's purposefully never been mentioned. He was a Prime, so I imagine it ended with "Prime", but that's all we know.

    Glad people who like this figure can get it. I have the original release, and in all honesty, if I still had the receipt, I would have returned it.
