    Splitting hairs, but Tracks and Wreck Gar were released under Reveal the Shield.


    You might be the first person i've ever seen call Tracks rare.

    I think Wreck-Gar is at least semi-scarce ?

    A bit of a zombie thread and the only real rare one on your list atm is thundercracker and he can still be picked up at some retail shops.

    I never bought Thundercracker when I saw him..it would be nice to see a new G1 version of Optimus Prime and a Soundwave. Maybe even if they remade Grimlock or possibly a new Arcee.

    Kup is literally the only Generations figure I can find around here...

    There aren't any Generations toys that are rarer than the others. The rarest ones right now are Sky Shadow and Junkheap, and I predict those will be easier to find once stores have depleted enough of their DOTM stock to make space for those toys.

    Junkheap seems to be the "hot" generations figure right now. Kup, Thundercracker, Scourge, Warpath, Wheeljack are still at local walmarts, targets, ToysRUs, Kohls and sometimes at Meijer. Also they are on Toysrus.com, amazon.com and hasbrotoyshop.com. You can get rts tracks for $8.99 on amazon right now

    I don't really see any of them as rare, at least around me. I've seen all the ones released more than once - the Kup/Wheeljack wave is plentiful enough now, but I've seen a few Junkheaps and Sky Shadows at Target and Wal-mart.

    I've seen some Junkheaps and Sky Shadows, too but only at Frank and Son.

    My local walmart has generations in clearance section for $9. And they weren't part of the new toy aisle resets when I checked the planogram sheets they have up.

    I saw the RTS Peceptor, Optimus, Tracks wave just hit my local Ross for $6.99. Anyone know the release order well enough to tell me if any War For Cybertron figs would be in a later wave?

    At the normal retail spots Sky Shadow and Junkheap are out in sufficient numbers to actually pegwarm next to Wheeljack and Thundercracker. Warpath is still scarce.

    WfC stuff was under the Generations banner (not sure about that 3-pack) that has yet to show up at Ross, TJ Maxx/Marshalls, etc... Only RTS and the line that preceded it (Hunt for the Decepticons) and some PCC stuff has hit discounters in the last few months.

    I know I've seen the Rage over Cybertron Pack still on TRU shelves as recent as a couple weeks ago.
