I just got POTP Slag,Swoop,and Dreadwind in the crappiest stocked Target in my neighborhood of Tampa,FL
They were in a brown cardboard box with 2 sets of the 4 deluxe figures. It seems Target is doing a big holiday reset across the US.I asked the girl to open the box for me lol.
They were 17 each ,a bump from 15 for the last 5 years of generations.
Itās remarkable because this Target only changes itās toy section like once a year lol.
So let your hunt begin.
I bought MPM-4 this weekend. Hate on the Bay movies if you want, that thing is the truth. Like the ROTF release, itās a marvel of engineering and nails all of the marks. Itās $99 at TRU right now. My store had about 12 LOL.
I just bought the MB-11. Without a doubt, itās getting sold.
Pardon the crap on the table LOL
Has anyone used Brickseek to do an inventory search?
I used it to score TR Overlord a while back.
If anyone is looking for the POTP deluxes, the DCPI (Target) is 087-06-5863
I used the site with the DCPI you posted to look for POTP figures over the weekend, but it came up negative for all my stores in a 25 mile radius.
I havent seen Overlord at all( or any leader besides Blaster/PM Op/Soundwave).
I got TR sixshot a few months ago on HasbroToyshop; I will probably get Overlord from online now that the busy time of the year is upon us.
If Dinobot is this big and everything is in scale, then how large is Megatron?
So because I am impulsive I grabbed the POTP Slug and Swoop. I think they are cool, but feel like they should have been bigger. I am sure that one of these KO companies will be making an oversized version of them because reasons.

POTP Dinobot Slash review
Damn. That G1 love is in full force. Love the way Beachcomber and Windcharger look.
Slash is cute. Wish she could have been part of Volcanicus.
So me being impulsive with the hunt, I came out of Classics collection retirement and bought the following in the last week. These are some of my thoughts on each
Slug - Decent figure. I really wish it had the wings from the G1 mold as it clearly could have been added. Due to the combiner gimmick and itās size it suffers. IMO, this should have been a voyager release set, with Grimlock as the leader class release. I also think that the Dinobotās combining is a bad idea. Judging from some of the Volcanicus pictures, itās gonna be the second worst set next to Menasor. C+
Swoop - I like the figureās more slender silhouette. Again like Slug, itās too small. C+
Seaspray - Outside of the boat shoes, it captures the character nicely. B+
Cosmos - Same as the previous legends release. Didnāt buy it then but overall a decent figure. Pretty cool as to how if goes from a flying saucer to robot. B+.
Windcharger - Love it. The head could have been a tad darker to break up the silver, but itās otherwise a G1 figure with 2017 engineering. A
Beachcomber - Perfect. There is nothing else that really could have been done to make this a better release. A+
Dreadwind - I skipped over this one initially, and I am now glad I didnāt. I thought it was a straight recolor of the Aerialbot mold, but there is some retooling done to make things interesting. I love the colors of the figure and itās a great homage to the original toy. I wonāt use it for the combiner limb, but I am patiently waiting for the Darkwind release. B+
Skipped out on Jazz. The RTS mold is light years ahead of what the 2017 figure has going on.
Street Fighter X Transformers
Anything with Bison is getting bought LOL
Without the Watermarks. Too bad you have to buy the sets together :bawling:
More remoldsā¦bleh
Slash is an instabuy for me once I see it online I havenāt watched the videos for the other figures I will once I get out of work.
Official Images
The more I see Ryu, the more I hate it. The rest I find so ridiculous yet full of awesome. I was expecting some remolding of the Titan Master component (especially with the price tag).
Chun-Cee looks the best out of them all.
Have they done a masterpiece for Arcee yet? Will they ever do one? Hope they have alternate color schemes because itād be odd to put a pink car on display, rofl.
