    Well the robosen transformers for sure. They aren’t disposable today. I think the aftermarket value for these in a few years might be extremely impressive.

    St. Joseph Target has Towline on the new Exclusives back end cap. Also some Armada Megatrons in the now reset main aisle.

    Checked Zumbehl Walmart, no hint of Toxitron stuff and frankly I’m not sure where the heck they would even put them. There’s no room near the existing TF stuff.

    Yeah I think hasbro MASSIVELY overestimate the demand for most of the rise of the beasts toys. I mean masks, smasher, "combiners", twists changers. I get Transformers are a kid brand but damn did they really need to go that deep? That stuff and some of the earthspark items have been shelf warming for months now.

    I don't think they realize that we are the ones who buy this FOR the kids. And I ain't buying my kid no cheap ass kibble fest which most of those are.

    It depends, I saw some family in the aisle once that actually really liked the transforming masks. Fact of the matter is that Walmart was the one that ordered a ton of the stuff to fill the big endcaps, and while it sells ok there's so much of it that it's hard to tell.

    DNA will surely come out with an upgrade kit for Snarl, which will likely include a rifle. They have made kits for the other 3 dinobots.

    If they're even out on shelves... At St. Peters they told me they were still on wrapped pallets up in a bay that'd need a forklift operator to get down, and at Florissant a manager told me I'd "better just come on the 30th when it's set to release."

    I'm holding out hope that a SS86 Leader Swoop will have the accessories they left out of the other 4, kinda like SS Primal has SS Prime's missing weapon.

    He's halfway through a glass of Sam Adams almost as tall as he is, and you want to give him a gun? :eek:

    Bridgeton Target came through! They pulled it from the back AND online preorders for Prime are open again.
