Earlier this week, we reported that the Platinum Edition 2-Pack of Leader Class Grimlock and Optimus Prime were available from TRU.com, which you can read all about here, and order here.

You can see the galleries of the original figures here and here.

Our own Seibertron.com staffer, mooncake623, found them at retail in Times Square, right in the heart of New York City at the Toys R Us store. (This is one of the largest TRU stores in the world, with a ferris wheel inside!)

He provided image proof below:

We've received multiple sightings about a new Transformers: Age of Extinction exclusive set, this time from Target stores - the One-Step Collection, including Optimus Prime, Lockdown, Drift, the Dinobots Slug and Grimlock, and of course, Bumblebee. Seibertron.com users DISCHARGE, ScottyP and Bounti76 have all sent us sightings, from stores ranging from Utah to North Carolina, always priced at $49.99.

Wal*Mart Exclusives Age of Extinction Mini Gallery And Search Info

Earlier today, we reported that Seibertron, himself, found the newly released Wal*Mart AOE exclusives at a local store in the Chicagoland area, which you can see here.

Seibertron has taken the time to make a Mini gallery of these items, in packaging, so we can get their UPC info. Why, you ask? Because these are part of Wal*Mart's upcoming seasonal reset and most, if not all stores, have these sitting in the back room awaiting a chance to be stocked on shelves and pegs. However, since they're on hand and active in the computer, you can buy them now. With the aid of the UPC info, the toy department associate can help you get them out of the back. (However, not every employee will be able to or be willing to help, so be polite when asking and try someone else if they won't. Manners go a long way in the collector world.)

NOTE: Sometimes Wal*Mart's computer system modifies the UPC for internal stock keeping purposes. If the full UPC doesn't work, give the UPC with the last number removed. The computer should be able to recognize it, then.

Bumblebee & Dinobot Strafe : 6 53569 98399 6

Optimus Prime & Grimlock: 653569 98404 7

Decepticon Stinger & Dinobot Slug: 6 53569 98402 3
