Because a lot of them are repaints. People would complain if an entire year's Voyager assortment was just Seeker repaints. And let's be honest, guys like Red Alert and Thrust are B-tier at best.
I like the red thighs, little bit less thrilled with the red arms, but that's likely the same mould so it can't be helped. Dislike the red piece on the chest. And although I'm not a cartoon guy (hence why I like Red Alert to have red thighs), somehow I do think Red Alert should be very light gray. But since this is a US store exclusives and I already have the siege version, I won't bother. Also, something I noticed with the Netflix Earthrise series, Red Alert has red windows on the show. Shame they don't copy this on the toy. (I'm considering swapping out parts with G2 Sideswipe to give Red Alert a red window, red hands and red shins.)
I've felt that every single one of them has been a chase. I rarely see the same TF in stores more than once. The shelves at my Wal-Mart are usually bare.
That's the problem. So, if that were the case, you'd think they'd want to avoid exclusives and make everything general retail, so the most people can buy the figures. If you want to recoup lost income, making it harder for people to buy your products seems like a shot in the foot.
Well, since we're specifically talking about Wallgreens, here.. an obvious 'medical' related business, I kind of think that Ratchet and Red Alert are obvious choices. I'm not sure about the Earthrise Bluestreak, but I got mine, so I'm not complaining. However I stick to my opinion that Ratchet and Red Alert fit the bit for a Walgreens exclusive.
Hi everyone, So uh, does this confirm we're getting a wave 5 of Kingdom? Has that been confirmed anywhere yet? Voyager class (beast) Inferno is a must! Deluxe class Tarantulas is probably also a given for wave 5. That means Terrorsaur is the only sucker who didn't get a new mold, but only that confirmed Airazor retool. Hopefully down the line, or maybe just maybe they can still somehow cancel the mold and give us a voyager Terrorsaur on wave 6
No, we've known this is this year's WalGreen exclusive for a while. We *believe* there IS a wave 5 coming, but they've just slashed the w4 deluxe in 2 - 2 in one assortment, 2 in another, both padded with repacks - and drawn Blaster forward from Legacy for the Voyager
(Peter Griffin Voice) I am not a fan of Target, nor a fan of Bayformers, so I can not and will not speak to that. Although I do not deny that it happened. Only that it was not a part of my meaning of my initial message. (/Peter Griffin Voice) I apologize. I've been binging Family Guy, and this is also my first foray into the boards apart from hunting, so I'm nervous about posting. Just know that I only meant humor.
oh knock it off. If it’s that big of a deal switch his arms with siege red alert or just don’t buy it.
Why do you presume Hasbro can just, like, MAKE all stores carry all of their product? As if that's a choice they have? How do you think this works out? They meet up with Walmart and Walmart says "okay this is how much money we're spending on you" and Hasbro pulls out a machine gun and is like "naw you're gonna spend twice as much, Kevin doesn't like Target exclusives" and Walmart is like "dude okay wtf"
