Just got word that Target's already pulled these from the shelves.

God-freaking-dammit!!! Got to Chadstone Target and the store drone informed me that not ten minutes before he had taken everything off the shelf. All I got to see was empty shelves.
Like a pirate I exclaimed. "ARRRGGGHHHH!!!"

What time were you there?? I did the exact same thing....

pinched a price tag as proof....

but the interestin gthing was the one for the legends.... they must be in the system as either the old movies figures, or just priced wrong..... coz the ticket said 0.68!!!!

Iceburn & I spotted a bunch of ROTF toys at Target Chadstone today. They had the first four Scouts, some Legends including Prime, Bumblebee, Jetfire & Springer, a bunch of Robot Heroes, some Voyagers (Prime, Starscream, Demolishor, Ironhide) and some FABs, which were mostly repaints.

very interesting.... PHEW!
luckily i got all 4 scouts and 3 new legends (except bumblebee)
wanted to get the 5 2pack Robot Heroes but once again budget constraints
moreover the Voyagers is highly priced at $49.99 and FABs and Pre-released deluxes aren't that great to buy them now.

DIRGE!! nice hauls yeah

[Paulbot]

So they sold some of them and then took the rest of the shelf? How weird?!

[GoktimusPrime]

Sounds like some naughty employee must've shelved the toys before the official date (which is printed on every case) and then a manager must've noticed and pulled them off -- otherwise they can get in trouble from Hasbro. I got my first Revenge of the Sith toys like 5 hours before the official release date - the store manager told me not to tell anyone about it until after midnight.

dirge called me at work from Chadstone to tell me what he'd found -- I was joygasming so hard at my desk that my colleagues were shocked and looked at me as I was gasping all the oxygen out of the staffroom. They thought that someone just had a baby and their looks of baited mutual joy quickly changed to stunned shock when I told them that it was over a new wave of Transformers toys; they'd gotten themselves excited for nothing.

Not much at High Point. TRU has the Animated Leader + Activator for $69.99, but that's still not as good as Kmart's $39+$13, but TRU did have Megs.

TRU is nearly all '07 movie toys. Myer had a Cyclonus, Smokescreen, Dinobot.

EVeryone seemed to have heaps of Universe Ultras, but no Universe Voyagers

What time were you there?? I did the exact same thing....

'Bout 5:30.

any reason why they pull the ROTF toys out
