If you're talking about the Official Ross/TJMaxx/Marshalls thread, the guy only found the Bumblebee blaster, no actual transforming figures. But it does give hope, much like these listings do.

It's not really a week though. The figures were effectively cancelled back in March or April, right? Could a couple of months be enough time to get something figured out?

EDIT: Found the thread, Hasbro sent out the message that the FE figures were cancelled back at the start of February.

If this is true, then we're getting 3 Vehicons per case.

Three of the inferior FE mold and not the better looking PRID figure.

However, I personally may buy one or two. While it doesn't look as good, having a few of both car vehicons would provide variety and justify army building to a bit, where not all of them look the exact same.

Also; not a SINGLE Bumblebee, the ONE time people might actually want him.

Not even a week since their last word at Botcon.

Well im not a big fan of FE but if they are in RiD packaging i will pick them up

I wouldn't get all excited just yet. If you read between the lines at Botcon (yes, I was there) it appears as though they are going to try to get them to us, but there are no guarantees of this. I believe they are genuinely trying, but it may prove to not be that simple.

I got that, but I'm just wondering what were their exact words? The live panel feed says getting more FE figures out there was a top priority for them, so I'm just wondering if it's possible they've been trying to figure out how to get them out since February or at least some time before Botcon?

Stop it. I've had it since December and you won't take it with your tricks.
