No not yet. I drove to a bunch of target's this morning to take advantage of the Target sale. All I found was many wave 1 deluxe and tons of preview B and Soundwave. I have seen wave 2 deluxe at Walmart though. I picked up Leader Prime and Skids and used the instore coupon.

Did mudflap ship in wave 2?..i have seen desert Brawl, Wheelie, chromia or whatever and Skids,Smokescreen so far.
 
"Coming off its first five days in release, with an estimated gross of $201.2 million, Michael Bay's hit sequel "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" took its place in the movie history books by breaking several major box office records.

From Bay and executive producer Steven Spielberg, the Paramount Pictures release joins "The Dark Knight" as only the second film in history to gross $200 million or more in its first five days. Simultaneously, the Transformers sequel eclipsed the previous Wednesday-Sunday record holder "Spider-Man 2" by grossing nearly $50 million more in ticket sales in the U.S. The film has taken over "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix's" previous title as biggest Wednesday opener, besting the film by over $15 million.


"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" became the third largest worldwide opening weekend grosser, earning $274 million and beating out last summer's "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull." Film has become the Studio's biggest international opener of all time, again besting "Indy 4" for the top honor, and ranking as the industry's 4th biggest opening of all time abroad.


The film's IMAX run also logged record-breaking milestones, becoming the biggest five-day gross for a Wednesday-opening title, with $14.4 million in tickets sales compared to "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix's" prior record of $7.3 million.


"Michael Bay has once again proven he's an outstanding filmmaker with a unique ability to connect with audiences," said Paramount Pictures Corporation Chairman and CEO Brad Grey. "The entire Paramount family is proud to be behind him and we look forward to continuing our collaboration with him in the future."


The 2007 release of "Transformers" opened to $70.5 million in the U.S. and eventually went on to earn $319.2 million domestically, and more than $700 million worldwide. The sequel has taken in $387 million worldwide to date, with final figures for the weekend due Monday."

Bring on Transformers 3! :rock
 
There was almost nudity. Unfortunately it was John Tuturro...

I was sucked in by the Target sale and got Leader Prime, the Fallen, and a couple of deluxes to get the 20% off. I also got the twins at Walmart. They're pretty cool figures, actually.
 
Went to target to check out their sale but all they had was Chromia, Wheelie, Rampage and Smokescreen but was priced at $10.99 and the voyagers around $22 or so. But TRU had another sale today on their Leader Class for $40 each and if you spend $30 or more you get a $10 gift card with a picture of Bumblebee on it. So I got LC Prime and Megs with 2 $10 gift cards.

The deluxes should have been $8.99, voyagers $22, and leaders $40 (minus 20% if you buy 4). But that TRU deal is pretty good, too.

I know, unlike TRU they go by the price they have online. TRU price for LC is $50 locally, but for the sale they put reg price as $44.99 and sale for $39.99. This time around TRU has the best selections and stocks. Target has their own local ads but not the same nation wide. I guess being in Hawaii they jack the price up because of the shipping or something, which sucks.

BTW, I read somewhere but had forgot that there is a stamped number on Skids card that you can tell if it is the painted gold tooth or the unpainted. Does anyone know about it?

You can just look through the packaging and see his head through the driver side window/windshield.
 
Did they intentionally make ones without the gold tooth, or is that a factory error? I think the twins are great figures as I said above, but pretty hard to transform properly. It's hard to get them so that all of the slots fit where they are supposed to, so they hold together.

I think just the first batch release that they forgot to paint a tooth gold.
 
Mine has it, at least. Was Mudflap supposed to be named Trax originally?

I hope I transformed these correctly.

There is even a variant of Mudflap. 1 with the license plate TRAX and 1 with MUDFAP. All I can find are the ones with TRAX, no signs of MUDFLAP plates yet.

I had a tough time transforming Skids at first, but I after a while and some practice it gets easy.
