Having spent way too much money on TFs over the last few days, I've been seeing a few little interesting tidbits at most retailers and was curious if anyone else was seeing the same thing or something different in terms of stock patterns:
-Wal-Mart is more expensive than Target and TRU by a dollar, although this has just happened in the last 24 hours. Whereas the Deluxes were initially 11.88, they went up today to 12.88. Scouts are a dollar or so more expensive than both Target and TRU, although Voyagers and Leaders are at relatively the same price.
-Wal-Mart also seems to have only gotten a ton of the Sneak Preview wave and wave 1 deluxes and Voyagers. Bumblebee is everywhere, although I've seen a LOT of them move in the last two days, and Soundwave is already nonexistent.
-Target and TRU are the only places locally that have gotten anything past wave 1, with Target getting one case of deluxe and Voyager wave 2, and TRU getting the same, albeit in a slightly larger amount.
-I've seen the "slight variants" of both Breakaway and Sideways at both Target and TRU so far, although neither is too different. Sideways is more of a champagne color than the initial silver, and Breakaway is a darker brown.
-No sign of Leader class Jetfire anywhere, and the Fallen is pretty tough to locate.
-Ransack remains the greatest toy in the current line just for the sheer antiquatedness (is that even a word?) of his design.
And not to drop spoilers or anything, but Chromia (the blue Autobot motorcycle) has some interesting extraneous parts and features that don't seem to do anything. Is there supposed to be some kind of gestalt/combiner feature with her, Arcee, and the as-yet-unnamed third bike from the comics?
