Got him online at the chosen prime. He is good stuff. The lack of wrist swivel is crappy. But other then that is a good figure.
Amazon.com: Transformers Age of Extinction Generations Voyager Class Slog Figure: Toys & Games Amazon has him (Slog)for $16.99 if anyone is interested. Pretty good price for a voyager
Thanks guys! Looks like I'm too late for the $16.99 price, but that gives me hope and I'll keep an eye out.
Spotted voyager Slog, Drift, Skybyte and Roadbuster at the Coldwater Walmart. About 5 or 6 each. Snagged myself a Slog and Roadbuster.
Sterling Heights/Hall Rd TRU had a few Sunstorms as of 6:30pm yesterday. All these Roadbuster sightings at Wal-Mart are getting pretty encouraging...
Is anyone feeling disappointed in their Roadbusters? He's seems awfully simple for a voyager and has a weird jeep mode that seems off to me. He does look good next to Whirl. On the other hand, I'm really digging Sky byte. There's something sort of comical and ridiculous about him. I like how his description includes a haiku.
Doc bot, I'm enjoying Roadbuster pretty well. I'd give him a strong "B". I can see how you'd find the transformation disappointing though; it is pretty simple. I can get into a simple "no frills" transformation once in a while, and I think he pulls it off ok. (Though I would have preferred wrist swivels, better hip mobility, and maybe some folding panels on his legs so he doesn't look so much like he's wearing "baggy pants".) For me the downside on Raodbuster is how rickety he feels, especially in the shoulder joints and ratchets.
My Troy Walmart venture didn't turn up any new voyagers (all they had was OP and Grimmy), but they did have a Rattrap and 2 Tankors. I also saw a bunch of aoe packaged Legends / Cyberverse scale guys that looked pretty neat too (they might be repaints of some DotM or RotF figs). Coolidge and Maple (15) Target had their exclusive 1 steppers in. Those things look a lot better in sub-deluxe (scout maybe?) scale than their leader sized counterparts. Still not for me, but they look more accurate and fun than the fast action battlers.
If anyone finds one of the Autobot 5 packs in the macomb area, please contact me and let me know where.
Novi WM has a Tankor and Rattrap, Novi TRU has a deluxe Lockdown 7 and Middlebelt WM has 2 of the Deluxe Strafe and Legends Bee x Stinger packs, the TRU over there has 2 of the Optimus Evo packs. Edit: I stopped in at the Southfield TRU on my way home (On the Hill / Telegraph @ 696), they've got 2 Prowls, 3 of the Optimus Evo packs, 2 Lockdowns, and a handfull of Drift, Slash, and Strafe. No Roadbuster, Skybyte, V-Drift, or Slog tho. I bet I'll find a Slog when I'm somewhere looking for something completely unrelated (or if he pops up online for non-scalper price)
Checked the walmart on Romeo plank and hall road, they had two of Slog and Drift voyagers and all the legends stuff/ walmart exclusives. No skybyte/ roadbusters. I'm really looking for a skybyte though! I also picked up a EVO Optimus from Roseville toysrus. 3 left I think.
The Wal-Mart in Port Huron had a SHOCKING amount of Rattrap and Tankor. My offer stands if anyone wants to work something out about me getting one for them, I'm in Port Huron at least twice a week and I live/work in the Metro Detroit area.
made the okemos tour today. one jetfire at tru, one skybite and one roadbuster at target. walmart is in the process of a reset, transformers now have a whole 7 pegs and 4 whole shelf spots , nothing new out...
Saw Sky Byte and Roadbuster at Target in Saginaw...BUT...the price on TF Voyagers was $31.49...WTF!?!?!?!?!?!?! $19.99, yes...$22.99...sure...$24.99...maybe... But $31.49???? HELL NO!!!
Southgate TRU had one Jetfire as of earlier today, and the Target behind Southland Mall had one Voyager Galvatron. First time I've seen one of those in person since like the weekend the movie came out when I bought Hound.
