Spychangers return.

Went down to dollar general today for snacks.

Very pleased to find new cases of universe spychangers.
It's a different assortment than the other g1 universe spychanger lot last year.
mixing optimus prime, jazz and prowl from that set with transparent colored plastic green mirage (mirage mold), brown autobot camshaft (wars mold), and blue hoist (ironhide mold).

It certainly made my day to find the clear ones. So go check the dollar generals in your area for the re-release spychangers.

yup, these are repacks [rereleases?] of some of the G1 spychangers with some of the recolored clear Spychangers.

These are not really new. They've been out for two years.

dude. I know none of these figures are new. But the fact that their being re-released/ re-distributed again in dollar general stores Is what I'm reporting.

My local store did'nt have them a month ago. And now it has two cases.

Glad you found them; personally I can never get enough Spychangers. I've tracked down every version of every release.

It wouldn't be exactly accurate to say they're being re-released or re-distributed, however. These have never stopped being available at Dollar General/Family Dollar stores over the last few years; looks like your local store just got some in. Regardless, you can't beat the price ($2).

ams: Dude, you own three different unlicensed City Commander toys and a half dozen fake third-party Prime trailers. WTH?
