The thing is, Animated came out kinda like a "filler" line to tide the shelves by of retailers so that Tf wont appear to have disappeared while Hasbro is cooking up for their Movie line toys... it may not be like Generations/RtS which is "purely filler line" since Hasbro deemed to have a cartoon show for it, even media and franchise products with the Animated designs but nonetheless its a "in the mean time" line which actually has gained a good following and has in some cases lost some fans ( not all people will like the Powerpuff look of animation and toys - I like it very much though).
So, having that in mind. In it's recent heyday when it was the line being the prime thrusted toyline of Hasbro there was flood of toys, but, with the emergence of the movie, most of the toys vanished and was pulled off the shelves with only a few figures shelfwarming here and there in some obscure store space, then the 3rd Tf movie came out and everything just got phased out to make way for these ugly, smallbots. So, your best bet to get them would be online stores, and toy stores who keep/sell old stock. As recent a line as it may be, once the Tf movie stuff was out, this was old news and as such regarded as much as a "filler" line
