Ravenxl7:
Great news. I'll definitely be able to buy Bruticus then. Here's hoping Hasbro's inevitable release of MP Grimlock is a Target exclusive too, that is if he ends up needing to be a store exclusive. Only questions now are when will they be released, and for how much.
Megatronwp38:
At lease we now know the avenue of release for these will be Target. That is good. I have plenty of close Targets and they usually all get the exclusives.
tamo536:
Target is getting a lot of exxxclusives this year.
At least i have a brand new one that is opening in a month so i will be guaranteed a set.
CryoPrime:
Sweet! Target's practicaly right down the street from me, unlike Wal*Mart now.
therealjondoe:
the colors look cool...
minus the hands and feet
overall they both look better than devastator
Gadep:
target is the exlusives pimp store this year...no wonder walmart was crying for more movie exclusives this summer....
heshanj:
they look pretty good...will be getting both hopefully...
drill:
Thank god these are Target exclusives. I can actually get one (Damn you Devastator. Mocking me with seeing about 30 of you once and then never seeing you again). I mean the only Target exclusive I haven't found was the G1 Jazz, which sucked since that was going to be my classics Jazz.
Bruticus will be mine.
Autobot Burnout:
Okaaaaaaaay, Superion just went down a notch for me, the yellow horns the reason why. Bruticus, however, looks even cooler with his subdued colors now, and is still a must have for me!
Gadep:
what did these cost ya...if you don't mind us asking...
i scored bruticus last week for about $70ish....awaiting him now....

wow, thats a really good deal. Both of them are probably gonna be 30 at retail anyways.
G1Wheeljack:
Cool, Target's a five minute drive from my house, now we wait for a price tag, I hope it's no more than $30-$40
benzo:
I'm soo hoping that these guys will be released in Canada!!
dark69:
Target's getting lots of good stuff
Locke:
Has there been any remolding on Superion? Specifically, have they fixed the peg issues that plagued the mold the first time around.
MagnusPrimal:
I'll get Bruticus. Superion is a 'maybe.'
WhiteMocha:
Target and not Walmart.... thank goodness. Even if my conscience didn't twinge every time I patronized Walmart, they're just too bloody far away from me to make it convenient. But Target, that's far easier on the schedule and the soul.
P.S. But yeah, kinda sad that Superion went with yellow highlights instead of gold. Resale value be damned, it might be necessary to break out the paint markers.
Nightwind:
I don't know. I'm not digging the colors on these at all. I would love to see a more uniform look in the colors of the individual characters so they didn't clash so much in combined form. I know that's not the way it was originally done, but it really would look much better IMO. Anyway, nice find and congrats!
Beastbot X:
Geez, Target's gettin' ALL the exclusives now, ain't they? I hope they aren't ANOTHER Black Friday-ish release... they've got enough getting out right then as is...
Big Daddy:
Here's "Zellers" opportunity to help us collectors, common Zellers!
DazzalingFury:
mehh...Superion doesn't look as good as i had hoped up close and personal haha but i still want to get it

That's a BUTTLOAD of Black Friday exclusives.
Robogeek28:
Target gets these guys hmmmm? Awesome, I much prefer shopping there opposed to Wal-mart.
clonemanager:
'till Target do their bench reset...... When ??
Mechafire:
I don't want these... but I know I'm gonna cave and get them.
Bgrngod:
Ugh... I hope these aren't going to all vanish in a Black Friday sale or something... I want. I've not purchased any of these molds yet and I am craving new combiners.
trebleshot:
Ahhh, sometimes it's nice living down the street from a Target. And driving past it every day to and from work. Just need to find out the price and make sure I've got the money on me.
I mean, they're combiners
Even though I own the originals of both molds. I'm such a whore. Gadep: Quote:

We all are....TF crack addicts/whores same thing...different title....
MetroBoy:
Wow. I wasn't sure at first, but now I'm leaning twords buying them. They look nice!

Same here a big one will be opening not too far from me and Target is WAY more convenient than Walmart.
blackconvoy_D01:
Im changing my original stance on them from a negative, and saying that thyre worth picking up. It's very G2 reminisant to me to see the Constructions, Combaticons, and Airialbots brought forth as the combiners teams for the Universe line. I hope though on a deluxe level though that we are able to see more newer molds.
Railguard:
I don't know. I am actually getting tired of the whole Exclusive thing. The nearest Target to me is like 40-45 minutes away. I can't just run over after work to go hunting cause they never have anything. Would I like to buy them, yes. Am I going to go crazy trying to get them, no.
DecepticonNews:
Oh i so want these dudes!!! Superion looks way cooler than Bruticus!
General Magnus:
Funny, Superionīs leg seems that is coloured like Energon Starscream.
Segor:
Guys, do you know if Target sell their exclusive toys online?? if not I'm screwed, the only way for me to buy stuff from the states is through a courier that receives packages in Miami and then they ship then to me here at the other side of the Matrix (Costa Rica)

From what I know, they sell all their exclusives online too, though there might have been some that I don't know about that never made it to their site.
Eric:
Glad to hear they're Target exclusives.
Agent-GHQ:
I think they look horrible!
Rodr-Evil:
Awesome, I still need both.
megatronkicksas:
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO put them in the feedback.
RavX:
I'm still not thrilled with the way bruticus looks ... I'm not so sour on Superion though. I'll probably cave and get them both anyway as my Classics devastator needs company >.>

Sorry to get off topic, but has the above statement been confirmed by Hasbro? Will they in fact be releasing an MP Grimlock in the US?

Nothing official, yet. That's why I said inevitable. Basically we don't know for sure if they'll release him, but there's little doubt in the matter. Grimlock is one of the most recongized Transformers characters here in the US.
FREEFALL:
Awesome. Hope I can afford them when they're out.
Any chance of pics of the bots and jet modes of the aerial bots?

There is the first pic of the figs but I don't know if we can repost them.

I think there's room for both. Addicts for new molds, whores for redecos:
TF Addict=Always wanting new and more of it. Once crack is used, it's worthless, so the addict must buy new crack to satisfy his addiction.
TF Whore=Keeps turning the same tricks with different outfits.

Hopefully, we'll get him like we got Optimus and Starscream. It might be worth the wait, especially since Megatron was fairly easy to get even after the initial rush (mostly because of the orange plug idiocy).
I would love to pick him up at retail, but I'll still get him regardless. It's just a matter of when and where.
