    YEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!! I've hand a hunch the last two weeks or so that we were very close to getting Sludge, and that mid June at the latest he'd show up in the US. Struck out at my local Target, but it was pretty well stocked with Legacy. The Walmart still has 5 Grindors and 2 Slags....how???? Had 2 or 3 Coronation Screamers.

    Thanks for the exciting news!

    dcpi should be the same for the leaders at target, as the previous ones like starscream and slag.

    Op posted the upc in the Virginia Sightings Thread

    When I scan the barcode with the Target app, it tells me the DCPI is 087-06-6691.

    Sludge looks so good - can't wait to find him or have an order filled - don't care which!

    Amazing how the mid-west/east coast is always showing pictures of empty store shelves when it comes to essentials and food, but they sure do get their toy stocks in long before anyone else.

    It’s by design! Nothing like a new dinobot to take your mind off the fact that there’s no toilet paper on the shelves.

    You can wipe your ass with the cardboard box and inserts, you can’t complete your ss86 dinobot collection with a roll of toilet paper. Priorities people.... priorities...

    $52.99, I believe. As someone who waited on Grimlock and had to troll the classifieds here to find him (and was lucky to find these super late re-stocks on Slag), I say grabs these dinobots when you can! In my area, they never hit clearance, and there seems to be limited opportunities to use coupons/find really good sales. YMMV. The price may sting (especially if you multiples), but they'll cost even more later. Good luck!

    Sludge looks amazing. I had convinced myself I didn't need any of the new Dinobots...but then I saw Slug in stores. Now it's a matter of tracking down Grimlock to go with Sludge and Slug (seriously, you can get a Masterpiece Grimlock for cheaper than the Studio Series version on eBay).

    yep prices are insane. I love the dinobots, but it is just toomuch already for me. Im going to wait until we get a SS86 Devastator and buy that.
