    Don't think he's been released yet. Probably within the next couple weeks.

    I've been driving around hitting every Walgreens but haven't seen a Red Alert still. BTW Walgreens have a sale on transformers...It varies with every store....some have 18.99, others have 16.99.

    At this point I'd probably just wait till you hear something official on the news page.

    I truly made myself so much happier and relaxed with this hobby once I made myself follow this rule: "no hunting until someone reports finding it in a state other than California."

    waspinator is a fantastic toy, just snagged him over the weekend and definitely think hes one of the best beasties.

    NW burbs are mostly stocked on new kingdom stuff. Im not sure if tigatron has been spotted in the wild yet but hes really the only one im not seeing out there. seems like stores arent stocking ark or commander roddy either as ive yet to see them out this way.

    is ark worth it? just considering to go for black zarak instead since bot mode ark really isnt cannonical outside of the wfc show. and he looks small compared to the other titans.

    Waspinator is definitely one of the better deluxes out of the line. Imo Dinobot ties with Primal for best bw figure from the line. Once i poped the bug legs off Waspinators robot legs the figure is 10x better.

    Tigatron hasn't been spotted stateside yet as far as i know. Probably within the next couple weeks. As for the ark i would say unless you gotta have an ark to display he's an easy pass. Very little in the way of features or weapons for a bot that size and pric. I went with Black Zarak instead. Easy decision lol.

    He still hasn't been spotted in-store anywhere in US yet.
    Definitely will be front paged when it happens.


    He has been spotted in various Walgreens across the nation.
    Hopefully yours will arrive soon.
    Check their web site.
    He could be up for order now.

    From the deep, dark... deep darkness, I guess, of, what a couple years ago? Comes SS Skipjack, oddly on the shelf at Rosemont Target.

    Wouldn't scan with the Target app, though.

    In related news, I broke down and bought SS Jolt because all of you just HAD to talk about how cool he is. So thanks.

    (He *is* really cool!)

    Found one at Golf Walmart last weekend but box wasn’t perfect. I used my Walmart app to scan it and was able to buy more online. They came this week in perfect shape.
