    Also be careful with the Shatter figure; mine appears to have leprosy.

    Yeah, mine’s wing popped off right out of the box. It’s a strange figure. These aren’t the best in the line, that’s for sure.

    Saw a Seige Soundwave at Brodie WalMart in South Austin. Wasn't expecting to see him. I left him there around lunch time.

    Looking for BumbleBee OP still.

    I ordered Bumblebee Optimus from Megalopolis Toys. Took awhile but got to me fast. Order the set of him and Rampage. I plan on getting all of the constructicons to build Devastator.

    I can’t wait but it’s going to be a long time before we can build him.

    Blah! Checked both my Walmart's and they didn't have nothing new out. Went into the new Ross at 26944 FM 1093. Their toy section seemed small and had nothing really and the store itself felt crammed.

    Yeah, its weird how most Walmarts seem absolutely barren still. Most other toy product in the stores I check out but TF's are a wasteland. Wonder wtf the holdup is.

    Don’t know whether to blame the fornite toys or under performance of previous movie lines...but it’s obvious Walmart has demoted the transformer section at most stores. Seems like all the Walmart’s I’ve been in to has pushed transformers farther down the action figure isle farther from the main walk way and limited generation or movie toys to two pegs horizontally from the top shelf to the floor...most of which are empty. Half the time those aweful “Mars converters” are hogging shelf space where the leader toys should be and are no where to be found.

    Sigh.

    Okay. Rant over

    Maybe the toys are having an uprising and taking over the factories AOE style?

    Tell me about it. Most that find them here do so during the day while I'm at work so by the time I get off the Siege figs are gone. But not Studio Series, they stay on the shelves here.

    Walmart has cut back on transformers due to the fact there is no movie currently in the works. Their money goes on marvel and fork knife toys. If there is no clearance they assume they are doing good
