    So does this mean Wal-Mart might start selling Leadfoot figures?

    I hate cheap knockoffs. Especially when they are stocked in the wrong areas XD

    Where is the deluxe Stinger?
    Nothing's been shown or announced... but I hope it just magically appears one day soon.. in a Target.

    I suspect it'll be a Walmart exclusive, probably a remolded version of the new Bumblebee. We'll probably learn more at SDCC.

    And yeah, wouldn't it beat all if it popped up in a Target anyway?

    Ugh, it's spring-loaded like the disastrous Lockdown 1-Step.

    Interest: gone

    I expect that SDCC will officially reveal this, a Power Battler, and a Deluxe as Walmart-exclusive Stinger merchandise.

    We know about the Deluxe from the leaked listings, and whilst the Power Battler wasn't in the listings (neither were Junkheap or the Vehicon), it would make the number of PBs up to the 15 we were promised at Toy Fair.

    Lockdown, Crosshairs, and now Stinger follow this one step changer scheme.

    Its very underwhelming. I'd much rather have more of drift's butterfly knife gimmick.

    Lol

    God only knows what that means for us in the UK and the parts of Europe that are actually getting Generations figures at all, if the deluxe figure does indeed turn out to be a Walmart exclusive as the deluxe and voyager figures are all TRU exclusives here, but being part of the Walmart group, ASDA normally gets the Walmart exclusives.

    :confused: :eek:

    I wonder what the Target stocker or cashier thought when they saw it. Also, I wonder how it's even in their system.

    Found one at the Columbia, Maryland store, too. I picked up a Hound a week ago and plan on making a pack of wolves once those come out. :)
