    I just got back from my local Wal-Mart and they had a bunch of them in stock. If I am not mistaken, this is the first sighting at retail. Attached is a pic for proof.

    I still undecided on these. I don't care for the molds but the color schemes are ok to me.

    I really like Backblast's colors. He reminds me kinda sorta of a TM2 Megatron.

    Really like the colors, a must have! You can never have too many Minicons. "Gotta catch em' all!" er, no wait, Jetstrom said that about the Maximals in Beast Machines. :D

    Another new sightings from Tucson. :cool:  I really don't collect them. The only exception would be the minicons from the Giant Planet, but still I would like to see them in person before committing to buy them.

    they seem to have sprouted up like cockroaches, haven't they? i saw them in my home town, and with few exceptions i like the colors. high wire just reminds me of evel kinevel's bike, and grindor's a bit too green. the others had ok paint jobs, though, but alas, i'm passing them over coz i'm still trying to nail soundwave (walmarts in illinois and iowa suck)

    Hey Galaxy where are you from? I live in the Burlington Ia area and found soundwave in the Fort Madison Shopko last week.
