2005 Boards member Guard Convoy has sent us news of a new variant to the assortment of Legends Class toys currently available in Dollar General stores. The Dollar General Optimus Prime (pictured) and Starscream are now featuring the remolding and additional weapons from their Asia Exclusive or GDO Legends counterparts. In other words, start checking out your Dollar Generals if you would like Optimus Prime with a sweet red version of Motorbreath’s sword and Starscream with Nul-Rays which he can mount beneath his wings.
No variants are being reported on the Bumblebee or the Megatron in the same case assortment, possibly because their molds were not altered to be issued as a part of the GDO Legends assortment.

The Dollar General Market has toys also. I've seen Legends at one as well as the G.I. Joe exclusives. I don't know how much it will help but here are the UPC numbers off my receipt for Prime and Starscream which I finally found yesterday. They are probably the same as the original version though. Good luck.
Optimus Prime – 653569747321-400
Starscream – 653569747307-400

Have dg close but they didn't have the variations. Hit the big lots 15 miles away (someone in the area had found them at a different big lots) and found both. Very cool legends.

I picked up Optimus and Starscream at Big Lots today. They also had Bumblebee and G2 Megatron.

I guess this makes having the original RTS versions of these guys worthless then?
