    So it's finally happened, this year as last year, I walked into a Wal-Mart and there were no Bumble Bee's (or deluxe Transformers of any kind). Just like with the DOTM BB's last year. Just before Christmas they all sell.

    Keep it quiet! We need to cover this up, or Hasbro will hear about it and make even more!

    just wait, they've pulled them all from the shelves and are saving them for Christmas day so when we go to spend any TRU/Target/Wal-mart gift cards, BB's will be on all shelves and pegs of all the toy aisles. and in the little girls section of the toys, there will be pink BBs with brushable hair

    My local Wal-Mart seems to have stopped carrying TFs altogether. One peg of Cyberverse Commanders and a lone voyager Prime were all that they had.

    Not a single DELUXE in mine. Nothing but crappy cyberverses and bot shots clogging up shelves.

    Oh you lucky devil to be Bumblebee free. Every place I've been to in town that sells Transformers still has plenty of the yellow bastard on the shelves.
