I'm of the belief that it's a 1-time anomaly or outright hoax. Voyagers always start out $12 or higher at these stores and slowly go down. $7 is closer to their deluxe pricepoint.

Man, I hope so. I barely saw wave three (Dreadwing) before wave 4 (Ultra Magnus/Thundertron) came in like gangbusters, followed immediately by wave one of the Beast Hunters voyagers. Wave 5 of PRID (Skyquake) isn't likely to hit at major retail around here any time soon, if at all.

I'd hate to only own one of the Spark brothers in the voyager class. They look so good together in Cyberverse.

I think Skyquake is destine for the discount stores, as they tend to pick up those last waves of lines that come out right before a new one starts that never see mass release.

Grimlock may be a mistake or a one time thing, but if someone who's looking for him can pick him up at that price it'd be a heck of a deal.

I don't collect modern TFs so I really don't have a leg in this race, just passing along what I've seen posted to help others out.

I think you're right, which means it might be a bit of a PITA catching him, especially if TJX Inc, starts selling him at $7 each. Even causal shoppers might grab him at that price.

Just thought I'd post an update, others on TFW have reported finding Grimlock & Blaster for $7 too.

Guess I'm going to TJ Maxx and Marshalls tomorrow.

That means that Springer and Blitzy might be hitting real fast in early April/late March.

I found a lot of the new WOW Mega Bloks DragonTurtle w/Pandaren Monk ($9.99) and single pack Horde Pandaren ($6.99) from Wave 2 at TJMaxx a week or so back....

....still no sign of the IM 3-pack though. :/

i've been to 6 tj maxx/marshalls in the last week and they have not had any foc transformers come in...

Was in Five Below yesterday and saw a ton of that last wave of IM2 figures such as Shield Breaker, Sonic Storm, and Exosphere. I think they trickled into those Ross-like stores a bit, but were never as plentiful as what I saw at Five Below (talking a barrel full plus a couple pegs worth). It was a fairly...colorful wave, and of course they are much better overall figures than what we got in IM3.

They still had lots of wave 2 and 3 of the Thor figs. Saw a couple Volstaggs and Destroyers. Picked up a King Laufey and King Loki from that same store not too long ago.

For those of you who haven't heard yet, Big Lots has been getting in Matty Collector stuff; MOTU & 12" Ghostbuster sets.
