Found these @ Target tonight. I bought the set of 3, but so far I've only opened Shockwave. He's definitely in my top 10 this year. I just wish he was a tad bit bigger.

So what's the retail price of the deluxe size figures now? I scoffed at the 15-16 Targets around here have them for, as that seems really high... but all of these figures were gone by the next day.

I'll probably pick up a Shockwave, but the only ones I saw were Optimus and Jazz, which seem like they would stick around for an inevitable (I hope) sale.

The new MSRP is $14.99, but HTS has them for $11.99. Not sure what's going on there, HTS usually sells at MSRP. Walmart will probably sell them for just under MSRP like they are with the TF:Prime figures.

I can totally understand raising the prices, but to do that and lower the quality just isn't right. These don't even fit in with the WFC figures anymore, not in scale or style. If the 2013 Generations line is made like this then it won't be worth buying since they won't fit with the previous Generations, Classics, and Universe figures. Very disappointing, Hasbro.

Man, the Walmart off North 680 here in Omaha has TF Prime Deluxes for $15.49 when I was there Sunday (higher than the local Toys R Us stores in the area)

So, I guess $15 is the new price point. I was iffy with the $13 stuff at Target, but now $15... Gonna have to be even more choosey on my figs.

If anyone wants to get all of the figures at once and not have to deal hunting for them you can buy a case of 8 at BBTS. For me it comes to $15.86 per figure after shipping which is comparable to the $15.73 it would cost me at MSRP plus tax. Includes Prime, Jazz, Shockwave, and all 5 Combaticons. I'm waiting to see what kind of price Walmart comes up with.

I'm in for 2 Shockwaves if I ever see him.
