    Just got 3 of each. 2 Sunstorms are for repaints, and 1 to have as Sunstorm. A purple Shockwave just in case he changes color in the show, and one for my son and my friend who is a at work and I don't think any Targets are around him either.

    Best deal In my collecting thus far.

    And I just became the best uncle ever at the easter party next weekend. Picked up a set for my cousin, an extra set for me, and two sets for the kids at the easter party. Unreal. I was just trying to figure out how I was gonna buy more to give to friends kids, but at some point you need to say enoughs enough.

    These have been out already, so he would have the chance to pick them up already. Plus, the purple shockwave is just a recolor that doesn't (at least not yet) in the show.

    Already pulled the trigger on Purple Shocky for full price, but I'd snag a Sunstorm for 5 bucks. I forget, tho, which clone is he, the suck-up?

    Damn.. apparently they won't price match things longer than a week. I had to return and buy it back right away to get the 5 dollar price. still save myself 20 bucks that way...

    Well not to speak for Torpedobarb but I know he picked up a shockwave and 2 Sunstorms for me, so I'd like to defend him and say he's an awesome guy :thumb

    Well, since this has been confirmed aparently, I'm both despairing and happy at the same time. I'm REALLY ticked that this happened the day AFTER I made a trip to Target since I really want those voyager repaints, but I'm glad that I may be able to pick these up for extremely less than what they were, if the numbers I saw hold out for at least one of each set, and that I chose Blitzwing over a 2-pack yesterday.

    Man, hell of a deal. I bolted as soon as I saw this thread and scored a Shockwave and Sunstorm. For anybody in the Huntsville, AL area I can confirm the sale is on.

    these things are going for $5.00 but not for long
    so grabbing up loads of each doesn't seem like a good idea when you could be denying a set or two to some people
    i almost found this hard to believe(something that was previously $25.00 but is now a little over $5 can be)

    so don't go grabbing up every last one to sell on ebay cause thats the cool thing to do
    just get 2 or how ever many you need(if you have friends who want one)but don't buy more then 1 of each just to be a dick

    Retail plus shipping. Admittedly not cheap shipping, but he's doing USPS Priority Flat Rate, which isn't a bargain anyway. YOU stop being a dick about it, because he got them to sell at cost to fellow board members, such as myself. One Shockwave and one Sunstorm, here I come!
