Yeah, I'm defiantly going this year. I missed out on them before.

There are two sets if memory serves. However, the figures included in them were Target Exclusives - odds are, most folks have 'em already.

The other set is Air Raid vs. Storm Surge. Problem is the latest info says the price on the 2 pack of Scouts is $30! Maybe the Friday sale price will be lowert, but $30 US for 2 repackaged scouts is a big ripoff.

Even though these are the same toys sold int he 2007 movie line as Target exclusives in new packages, they are now labeled as "Transformers: Universe Cybertron Series" toys. That's particularly weird since Air Raid is an Armada mold.

The 2-packs will be $9 each on Black Friday.

...thirty bucks for two guys who sold for $8 separately at another store? That is a ripoff.

...Oh wait...$10 for each two-pack. Nevermind, that's an excellent price. Shame these guys have been available previously.
mignash
So normally $30, but on Friday morning $9.99? I wonder if Hooligan will be the same? It's $30 for a Deluxe and a couple Legends.
Engledogg
They're nine dollars even...the dollar sign ($) got cut off from the two-page toy ad.

Everything on those two pages will be $9.

I'm guessing that these will only be sold on Black Friday, and left overs afterwards? Like last years Animated packs, and the year's before Cybertron 2-packs.

Meh. Have the Target versions. Granted these 9.99 two packs are cheaper than what Target had them for, but still, unless you don't have these already, I dont see the point for collecting.

BUT, if you are a parent looking for something nifty to get your kids at a decent price, this is totally a good buy.

Hasbro probably had a ton of these left, or Target didn't take the entire order so WM got them wanting a cheap Transformer toy for Black Friday.

Only good thing is that it's not the upcoming roft two packs with the new movie repaints.

NightViper
Er, or it was cheaper to use figures that already had all of the plastic and paint ops laid out before hand.

Hasbro has said previously that such releases are not old stock.

^ A shame this wasn't a way for the unreleased wave of Target scouts to find their way onto our shelves then!

No kidding. I would love to have that blue Lugnutz repaint.
---The Rat
eh....well I'm kinda glad I'm working black Friday morning now. there is nothing listed on walmart(or any of the ads) that is worth fighting for IMO.
Sure its going to suck to have to be at work by in 5 in the effing morning, but with a enough coffee I'll be awake and have most of the day free
OmegaX80
I dont know if this is news, but on Walmart's site, Skyfall, Hardhead and Red Powerglide have price reductions to $24.

Powered Convoy
I decided to get these for the ones that are Shattered Glass characters as I didn't buy them the first time.

There were still tons of the scout 2-packs at my local WM when I was there yesterday (Sunday).
