TF:ROTF Deluxe Dirge Sighted at Target in SoCal

The only deluxe figure on the pegs, Dirge from the new NEST sub-series was spotted at Target in West Hollywood, California, this evening. Target still has deluxes on sale for $10, so good value, and to all of you, good hunting!

Animated Deluxe Wave 6 Sighted

This reporter found all 3 of the newest TF Animated deluxe figures – Samurai Prowl, Waspinator, and Elite Guard Bumblebee – at the Target store in West Hollywood, California. Contrary to my prior opinion, Samurai Prowl is a mix of previous and new parts, and as such, the main bike is the same exact scale as the original Prowl figure. So keep your optics peeled for these new figures, good luck and good hunting!
