    I thought the same thing trence5, so I ordered Perceptor, TopSpin, & Kup from BBTS, but I think I'll wait & see if Brawn hits the stores eventually. I didn't really want the ThrottleBot/RoadBurn BBTS bundles Brawn with, nor did I want to spend more than I already did. Overlord better not get postponed or cancelled for Movie figures or get side-lined to Ross or wherever lost toys end up.

    Anyway, I just got the last Leader Blaster & Getaway on sale at Walmart SW Military Dr. It may be the last time they pop up with all the new Movie stuff coming in. Blaster is a neat figure & Getaway is a bit plain but not bad. Actually, I don't think that I would mind the new Voyager Movie Prime if I saw it in person, but I'd like an improved Leader Class version.


    Please keep posting whatever new stuff shows up in-store, & GOOD HUNTING ALL!

    Found 1 each Optimus and Grimlock at Wal-Mart in Irving (635/MacArthur). Left Grimlock. I like this Optimus WAY more than I thought I would, though they seem to have sacrificed a bit of poseability for a good transformation and decent detailing. All in all, though, I really like him.

    Blaster was $39.73 down from $44.99 & Getaway $14.92 down from $16.99 MSRP, so it was not a bad little discount. They were the last two that that Walmart had at the time. I'd seen several Leader Soundwaves at SW Military Target, but I passed on them in favor of Blaster. The boombox-mode just doesn't suit Soundwave to me.

    Anyway, I thought it best to buy them while they were still available, before all the new Movie stuff dominates everything.

    Thanks for the heads up! Went and grabbed Barricade. They still had at least 1 of each Deluxe left.

    Went to the Target across the street. Not much except for Wave 1 of the Tiny Turbo Changers. Did some bag feeling and grabbed 6 unique molds! Woo hoo! Got Hound, Blackout, Soundwave, Grimlock (regular color), Optimus and the black Bumblebee. Obviously simple transformations and minimal paint apps but they're pretty fun little desk toys.

    Found eight or so of the new movie Deluxes at the Walmart off beltline and the Dallas North Tollway and the voyagers. Picked up a barricade and left the rest. They also had a TON of the wave 1 and wave 2 titans return Delxues.

    Are u aware that the baggies do have a little window on the back at the bottom. Its not much of a window but it helped me find Soundwave, Sideswipe, Lockdown, Hound, and Yellow Bee. These were the only ones i wanted but i may get them all

    Hmm, based on that pic, it seems like they're expecting the standard deluxes pretty soon, seeing as they've got 3 pegs prepared and tagged for them...

    Yeah, I'm not sure what TRU was thinking when they did that. I understand costs rise, but even the hike from $10 to $15 for deluxes still causes me to hesitate. The only way I'm paying more than that is if it's just THAT good. And not many are.
    It's funny, though, cuz the legends, voyagers, and leaders they really didn't mess with much.

    I guess Walmart is the only store that has the movie deluxes for $15.83 and voyagers $26.86
    Tardget seems to be following TRU in prices for these
