    Brookfield TRU had some of the 50th GI Joes yesterday. The two vehicle packs and 1 of the 3 packs (CC, Duke, and Trooper). No sign of the 2 packs. They were at the end cap of the aisle, kind of an odd location.

    I'm sure that MP Starscream will be as easy to get for you as the MP Optimus Prime was a couple years ago. :lol

    Haha. I still wake up with nightmares of you walking out of TRU with the only MP-10 in the store. My son and I there... Crying ... You walking away laughing. So cruel.

    For everyone else, the story is true, minus the nightmare, crying, laughing , and cruel parts..... Well, on second thought, let's put cruel back into the truth column. Hahaha

    A buddy found a single set of the Wave 4 CW deluxes at Target West about an hour ago. Happy hunting!

    Two full sets of the "new" wave 4 CW deluxes at the Appleton East Target. These guys actually look worse in person. Aside from the heads, they're just a bunch of trashy re-paints.

    I wonder if Hasbro actually makes this Combiner Wars series will Ironide and the rest look like shit like these toys do to promote sales? Even so I don't think I can pull the trigger on wave 4 either...I hate that front peg all the deluxes seem to have. At least try to hide them with a flap or something in robot mode. The combined forms look okay to great but stand alones? Pffft

    The Autobot cars are wave 4 right? Found them at target on highway 100 in west allis on Thursday night. Prowl, mirage, and iron hide 2 of each but no sunstreaker. I grabbed an iron hide, kinda forgot to mention it here until just now.

    The irony is that some of the toys DO have that front flap you mention. It looks a lot better with that flap... but alas, Hasbro has a price-point to stick to, and it's killing the designs! :banghead:  Well, paradoxically, it's untrue with CERTAIN deluxes? :lol

    The new Meijer in Oak creek has some Motormasters if anyone is still looking for those.

    Oak creek Target has two each of Cyclonus and Hotspot as well as a case of the new Combiner Wars wave 4 deluxes. Kind of wanted Mirage, but can't justify any of them at nearly $16. Prowl looks pretty great, but again, can't justify it since I already own Dead End, Wildrider, and Streetwise, not to mention MP Prowl. Glad to be finally be able to give the wallet a rest for a wave, at least.

    Wave 4 deluxes (2 of each except for Prowl) found at Stevens Point Target. Prowl is actually pretty nice. Ironhide's head is kind of strange and Sunstreaker is just off but Prowl is probably the best use of the Ferrari mold and mirage is fairly on target.

    Well, between TRU jacking up their prices on Devastator and apparently not stocking them any more, I decided to finally pull the trigger and order one from Target.com. They only had four left in stock and I was getting worried that these guys are going to basically disappear like Metroplex did last year. With my Red card I ended up paying just over $149 with free shipping. Not as cheap as I wanted to get him but I just didn't want to take the chance of missing out on him. I've heard all the rumors about Costco "maybe" getting him, and he'll "possibly" be cheaper around the holidays, but like I said, I'm not willing to take that chance. I've waited long enough to add him to my collection.

    Saw the Wave 4 Deluxes at Hilldale Target. All but Prowl...and I left them. Hope that wasn't a mistake. I don't know...I'm just not digging the "everyone's a combiner" motif now.

    Agreed. I have much better versions in my classics collection. What sucks is that I really want an Ironhide representation, but I don't think this one is cutting it for me.
