I've been behind and not really paying attention because I can't buy anything right now, but has anyone anywhere posted that Blitzwing has been found at US retail? I saw 2 of them at Wal*Mart a few days ago. They are unfortunately gone now though.

I got one about a week ago, yeah. Not a big fan of the face changing... but I adore triple changers.

Cool. Not really interested in the wave 4 stuff (might grab Sentinel on impulse), but the sooner they release that then the sooner they can get to wave 5 and this guy.

Not to mention Swindle and Voyager Shockwave. I may get Sentinel Prime, and I will get Swoop to complete the Animated Dinobots. Once they come out here in Canada, of course.

Pretty much exactly one month ago. :)

Goddamn..that is when you can really tell you are over worked and over stressed, when you totally forget about a topic you actually responded to a month ago. :swirly:

I gotta get Sentinel and Swoop. I'll probably put off buying Blitzwing until after I get Shockwave though.

I'll probably pass on Swoop. I'm hoping they make more dinos though. I think it'd be sweet to have an animated Stegobot and Brontobot, too.

It's all in the thread that Nevermore posted for Voyagers Shockwave and Skywarp.:)

And I'd love to see more Dinobots in Animated, even though I wouldn't hold my breath for it.

Aye. Perhaps they'll do a followup series like they did with Armada/Energon/Cybertron? Then they could give us more dinos.
Please don't shatter my bubble of hope . . . : (

I ran across Swoop and Sentinel Prime tonight at Super Target, they both look very spiffy. I was almost reduced to tears over the fact that I could not purchase them, sad I know, but the animated line is turning out to be an all time favorite toy line for me. I also recently discovered how very well they display along side of the older Clone Wars Animated figures from a few years ago, when I came across one in a box I was unpacking today, the art style is almost identical between the two lines.

I doubt it. Follow up sertes? i hope so. Dinos? I think that may be stretching it a bit.

Bubbles don't shatter. They burst.

I spotted a crap load of blitzwings at my wal-mart today. There where so many of them, I am going to pick up 1 tommorrow.
