    It just keeps getting better! I've really been needing a good Classics Bumblebee, hopefully he'll have blue optics this time.

    Holy crap, I didn't even realize that. And IDW's Bumblebee is one of my favorite Transformers comics, so there's more reason to get this.

    Wonder if this'll affect the aftermarket for the Walmart set. If that thing had gone clearance here, I'd have snapped it up.

    Reveal the Shield is getting very Classicy right now but I'm not going to complain as I could always use more. Hopefully wave 3 will see some Decepticons though. We should see Reflector (will buy 3 of those) and maybe if we are lucky we can get a Universe Hound with a new head as Swindle and maybe a repaint of Astrotrain in gray/purple put that is getting hopeful. The glorious Lugnut needs some friends. I can do without Bumblebee but good for those that need him. Having a new head and being painted as Goldbug would be great though.

    Generations looks good as always. Scourge still looks weird but I will get him to take the place of the Titaniums version. Kup is just win.

    You aren't the only one. It looks like most people are having that problem. While not as bad as you and some others have had my local Wal-Mart has had one case of Generations wave 3, one case of HFTD Voyagers, and two cases of wave 2 PCC 5-packs and everything else has been wave 1. I have to drive 70 miles just to see wave 2 of HFTD. G.I. Joe is worse since the nearest place to me that carries them is a Wal-Mart 50 miles away and guess what, just wave 1. Maybe as Christmas approaches we will see wave 1 start to fly off shelfs and the other waves start to move in. Other than that online stores are going to be your best friend for awhile.

    I think it's comical that out of the 11 "Reveal the Shield" figures, only one of them (Lugnut) is a Decepticon.

    yeah I know.. I need cons badly. at least the reflector can have multiples because he always did. I'll buy a few of those if I find them on the peg.

    Kinda funny, since the apparent point of Reveal the Shield is to hide the faction from the consumer since Autobots sell so much better than Decepticons.

    If Rumble and Frenzy both get released there's two (or one if it's a voyager 2-pack). Reflector is coming. If they do a Slicer out of Wheeljack (which is unlikely)... They could make Jazz into a Stunticon. We've also got the inevitable remolds of Terradive and Tomahawk.

    Of course, with all of these, we have no clue which line they'll be in... Generations or RTS.
