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.   Shane's Comics - Four years and 500,000+ page views... I'll quit one of these days.

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 ?

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

#28 | | Quiet and yet...NOT quiet Join Date: Dec 2005 Posts: 4,148 Collection Count: A bunch | 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. |
