Exact details and pics will be availalbe by the end of the month. Pre-orders posted to the site as well.


I guess it isn't that bad then.

I'm blown away at all the TF cross promotion coming. This movie is being whored out like no other.

- Burger King, Taco Bell, KFC, Pizza Hut
- Pepsi Cola / Mt Dew
- food products like lunchables.
- full buildings with ads in hollywood? This is close to 3 months in advance.

and I STILL can't find Alternator Rumble, Alternator Ravage, and Classics Devastator. This is truly driving me nuts.


I have every Wal-Mart timed when their restocking pallets come out for the night. I hit the store then ... and I've been doing this for 3 weeks straight. I'm positive nothing ever came in at all. :wtc:



I'm giving it 1 more week, then I'll have to hit eBay. I just don't think Wal-Mart ordered enough of these to stock all regions.

They came and went FAST. I didn't even pick any extras up for resale because I thought they'd be saturated across the country and I'd be stuck with them.

They're completely cleaned out in all of the local WMs in Central Florida. Considering how many each store got (18-24), and with only two characters in the set, that's actually pretty impressive sales.

In similar fashion to your experience, I've never once seen Comemmorative Soundwave at retail.
