Greenville SC area: any number of Cybertron figures are sitting around not selling. There are plenty of Classics Optimus and Mirage too, which is a shame. Both are great figures.

In one of the local Wal-Marts, they've had the same four Alternator Skids for about a year now. It was eight, so some have sold, but I doubt they'll ever get any new ones in until these sell... and it looks like they never will.

Ultra Magnus has left shelves, but I got mine on discount over a year after he arrived. Hasbro UK couldn't give that one away for a few months there. Ironic, huh? There was even a month or two not so long ago when I couldn't go to an Entertainer store without seeing the red version of Armada Thrust dangling from pegs. He never shelfwarmed, but given how he isn't meant to exist outside Japan there was a worryingly large number of them!
Are The Swindles,Shockblast and Silverstreak all The red Packaging or Bubble ?

Basically, Hasbro decided to send months of shipments of just CD Hot-Shot and Downshift, Hot Shots were selling well, but Downshift wasnt, and was clogging shelves worse than the Fantastic Four movie merchandise.

Hence the name Cant-Shift, nobody wanted 'em, Hasbro gave 'em

Classics Mirage is the big one here. Incredible that nobody will buy it and it's arguably the best Classics figure.

As for Cybertron, monkey Optimus and Demolishor won't leave the shelves.

Curse Hasbro for repainting that cruddy figure AGAIN. Everybody predicted that would clog shelves and it has.

Menasors are also all over the place. I never bought one and still don't want to, so don't count on me picking one up, even at a discount.

I've seen Classics Prime clogging the shelves, everywhere. Same with the Prime/Megs two pack. TRU I was at yesterday had a huge deposit of Ti Scourges, too.
