#3311 | | Wants Radicons to take over the world Join Date: Dec 2004 Posts: 28,012 Location: Cape Girardeau, MO Collection Count: 361 News Credits: 3 | I have a feeling the darker colors are the "regular" versions, and not the lighter ones, as these seem to be meant to replace the lighter colored variants. Radicons aren't limited to just Transformers. . . .

They'd have to completely re-do everything to fix the packaging in addition to the figure. I think those of us who've gotten the lighter one could end up with a more valuable collector's item down the road. Radicons aren't limited to just Transformers. . . .

#3315 | | TFW2005 Supporter Join Date: Jun 2003 Posts: 397 News Credits: 1 | I have only seen a darker Sideways figure once in St. Louis and I can't remember where.
I have not seen the variant Mudflap, Breakaway, Bumblebee and Scalpel figures yet.
If I see them, I'll hide them for people (I'm not interested in them). Let me know. |

You can buy G1-colored movie Jazz loose for less than he was new. Same with Deep Space Starscream, etc, etc.
They just move far too much of these guys. (Which is good!) We may not get these licensed toys used in any other toyline, but for now they're making sure they sell like hots-ka-bobs.
Anyway, at my local Walmart theres every single voyager any one could possibly want. Along with 6 Chromia and 4 Wheelie.
I'm an organic thought-based laxative.

#3318 | | Hate Plague Infected Join Date: Feb 2008 Posts: 784 Location: Independence, MO | Well, even if the color switch was a running change, the figures are made and released in case waves, so it seems unlikely that many of the darker version would be be released depending on when the change took place at the factory. Currently it seems that the darker colors are still a rarity.
I haven't seen anything noteworthy since finding Jetfire stock in Blue Springs, though I'll check Lee's Summit Target and Walmart this afternoon after work. If anyone in KC is still looking for a HA Bumblebee, I have a spare. Feedback Thread  |

#3319 | | Breathe deep.......... Join Date: Jul 2009 Posts: 83 Location: Columbia, Missouri Collection Count: 110 | The Columbia Wal-marts have a bunch of scalpels. Nothing on the animated stuff going on clearance though. However the Universe Classics Voyagers were on clearance at one of the wal-marts, but only like 2-3$ off. |
