Almost all the TF toys are gone at my Target and Wal-mart! Only the real Gear stuff is still on the shelves! Did hasbro not anticipate the rush/demand on TF toys or are the stock people at my stores just slacking? One more thang that was left on the shelves.... Ultimate Bumble bee! Its very cool super detailed and his eyes light up and he play radio clips like in the movie. 18" tall or so and $80!

Those stockers are slacking! Fear not, young Mini-con. The tide will soon swell again.

In my area, Walmart's not too bad yet, but Target and TRU have been blown out for over a week. Like you said, nothing but Real Gear. I saw Real Gear 2-packs at TRU the last time I was there, but that's not the kind of new stuff I'm interested in! I want concept Camaro BB, and the video game drone characters (and voyager Optimus/Megatron....and Final Battle Jazz....and Leader class Brawl-vastator)!

Mmmm.. leader-class Brawl-vestator. That's some goodness right there! But I'm really looking forward to the jet-drone redone into Thundercracker. I hope he's not too far from release.

At my TRU we have a decent amount of movie and non-movie figs, plus a ton of Titaniums left. If you know who to ask (usually someone who has worked in the store for awhile) they might go in the back and look for you if your looking for anyone.

Bad news, my friends.
The reason for why there are no new TF movie stuff out is because Hasbro's "behind schedule". And now the pegs that will hold the movie stuff will be reserved for more Cybertron and Classics.

And now the pegs that will hold the movie stuff will be reserved for more Cybertron and Classics. That's right, this sad news appears to be true. This was posted by someone over at TFormers.com: Hasbro ''behind schedule''... to ship Cybertron Instead?!?

Okay, this is my first time doing this, so forgive the crude delivery...but...I work at Wal-Mart. Sadly, not the toy department, but I'm chums with the manager and end up over there alot. Every once in a while Hasbro representatives come in to check on product, or fix up displays, deliver messages, etc.
Well, yesterday after asking about what's up with the TF Movie toys, they responded with a "behind schedule" excuse (well, obviously), and here's the kicker.....that they supposedly will be shipping older toys like Cybertron stuff, in place of Movie stuff until they get back on track. Wha-?!?
I'm really hoping this is just a possibility, and not the actual truth. This wouldn't really make sense considering most fans already have had these for a year or so! I'm hoping anyone can confirm or debunk this claim by Hasbro. I know there will be tears on my pillow tonite over this potentially sad news! Maybe I'll atleast be able to catch up on some missed Cybertron figures (actually, Dirtboss is the only one I still need).

Several new figures have been spotted in the US! TFormers.com reported it here. Also, on a shopping trip yesterday, my local Walmart and TRU both had the Voyager Class "Icy" Megatron, so I got him. Target had Ultimate Bumblebee, which was the first time I've seen him in person. I skipped him, so hopefully he'll get reduced to 50% off in a couple of months. Then I'll get him. Nothing else new. I was hoping to find the next wave of deluxe figures, but had no such luck.
