The United States is becoming a real haven for first sightings in the Transformers Power of the Primes line. Not only was it the very first country to get the first toys in the line, but it is also the first place to get the wave 2 voyagers, leaders and Prime Masters (the latter were found at Meijer). Adding to all these wave 2 sightings is another, sent to us by TF fan Micosay, about the wave 2 Legends class toys being found at US retail.
Micosay found Power of the Primes Roadtrap at their local Walmart in Bolivar, Missouri. This is one of the components for Battletrap which combines the aforementioned Roadtrap and Battleslash. Legends class tailgate is also part of this second wave. These toys retail for around the $10 mark and were supposed to be coming out in march. Power of the Primes seems to be coming out quicker than expected in general in the US.
If you want in hand images of Roadtrap and Battleslash, click here and click here if you want to see a video review.
The only wave 2 toys left to find are the deluxes so please let us know if you find any. If you find any wave 2 (or even wave 1) Power of the Primes toys, you can let the members of the community know by writing a short post in the sightings forums and indicating it in the sightings section.

Getting there. It's mostly a want list but I can get overly excited if I want to.

I don't have that many fembots but more are always welcome!
I was also wishing the recent TR Arcee (with Leonad lol) was Combiner-compatible....her, Moonracer, Elita-1, Novastar, and TBD would be a great Combiner or Super-Suit of the Primes for Elita-1.
EDIT:
I gotta say Metalhawk is my favorite Prime Master of wave1 and possibly wave2 -- but Skullgrin is kinda adorable.

I've barely seen any of wave 1 and wave 2 is already showing up. Nice to see distribution has gotten better with PotP.

I picked up Tailgate last night from Walmart. They had the Battletrap figures but I passed on them. Didn't ring up in the system so I told her it was $4.99 and she rang it up that way.
He's not as MTMTE as the last one. Like, a combination of the two would be perfect.

Alternatively, you could have told her he was $9.98, and just stuck one of the Battletrap figures under your shirt. Would have been the same difference, right?

I've got a prediction for the later part of the Power of the Primes line. We're all hoping for and anticipating more Season 2 Female Autobots to complete the Elita One combiner. We've got Elita One as the torso and Moonracer and Firestar as two limbs. That's two more limbs to go, but three characters left to choose from: Greenlight, Lancer, and Chromia. We already have a Generations Chromia figure from Thrilling 30 several years ago. It would make the most sense to make Greenlight and Lancer the other two limbs. However, that still kind of leaves Chromia out of the mix, making the team one iconic member short. I can see her as a Legends scale "sixth member", a la the new Slash for the Dinobots. She may not combine with her teammates as was the trend for combiner teams during Combiner Wars, but she'd still be available to display with the others if desired. I could see a redeco and retool of CW Groove work, or Hasbro could surprise us with a brand new mold altogether.

I too am excited for the ladies to come! so far, I have the T30 and TR Windblade, Chromia, Nautica, Arcee, Victorion and components, and Slash, so Elita, Firestar, and Moonracer are welcome additions. I wouldn't mind Lancer and Greenlight, but the picture on the side of Jazz's box shows the Elita-1 combiner with him as a leg and Moonracer as an arm, with a black colored Jazz (maybe, could be a shadow color over it too) as the other leg, so maybe a Ricochet in wave 5. But I still would like the other 2 ladies!
And those ladies are just my generations gals. I have 3 Strongarms, an RiD Windblade, BH Arcee, Cyberwarp,
and Skyjack. There is going to be a massive girls night out eventually!
EDIT: forgot about airachnid

In terms of fembots, the only ones I have in my primary display collection are Thrilling 30 Arcee and Chromia, and Takara Legends Blackarachnia. I also have a Prime Deluxe Airachnid which I don't particularly want any more, but I doubt I could ever sell her because of how unpopular a figure she is. The only upcoming fembot I'm definitely going to buy is Elita-1, while Moonracer and Novastar are still on my maybe pile.
As I mentioned in an earlier post, I intend to get Unite Warriors Megatronia fairly soon. I don't like Victorion or the Torchbearers all that much, Takara's Waifucons (as I like to call them) stand out more to me as characters.

To be honest, I don't look at *most* Transformers as male or female (with the exception of Arcee because my daughter loves her 
). But I just get, as with anything, what matches the play pattern/gimmick I'm interested in.
I bought TR Arcee especially as a gift for my daughter. Nautica was given to her as a result of purchasing the Velocitron set. I also have Victorion and Megatronia, because I am a Combiner completionist. I also have PotP Slash because she goes with Volcanicus. I anticipate purchasing PotP Elita-1, Moonracer, Novastar, and any others that happen to be components of combiners.
I've been pretty vocal about not liking Windblade, its just that Hasbro has had this whole *THIS IS WHAT YOU, THE FANS WANTED, WHAT YOU VOTED FOR SO NOW HAVE IT X1000!!! approach that bugs me. I'll be perfectly content never owning a Windblade toy, unless she somehow becomes part of a combiner.

I like having plenty of ladies in my collection. I've got Legends Arcee, Prime Arcee (standing in as Chromia, she'll be getting a new head soon), Animated Blackarachnia and the Megatronia team thus far. I do have an Animated Arcee too but she's awaiting customization into a Minerva.
I will say, I'm not too happy with the latest direction of "Barely retool a male character and call it a female" they've been doing, but it has been getting better. Elita 1 looks pretty OK for a retool. Though I am disappointed that Warden's first original female mold, Moonracer, is as flawed as it is. I'll probably still buy her but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't underwhelmed by pictures of her.

Just curious, but does that mean there was a time when you wanted that figure?
Anyways, not to salten the wound but the way I got her last year was someone gave her away to me if I bought a few other things from them.
I am in it for the toy designs and puzzle aspect so I never really cared much for a TF's gender.
For all those that care though, I will be publishing a list soon of top 5 female TF toys. And I tried to diversify it so that it is not just a bunch of Arcee figures while still making sure the figures on there were really good.
Isnt his first original female mold Slash?

for me there was. I knew going into the Deluxe that it was crap, but I wanted at least some representation of her from during the show. She had some good, villiany episodes and deserved to be a noteworthy Decepticon. And secretly, I was hoping that maybe an aftermarket would come out abd help her.

While Transformers Power of the Primes Rodimus Unicronus was the first wave 2 toy found at US retail (once again, the US being the first country for a sighting), no one made a video review. Until now that is, since Peaugh has now uploaded a review to Youtube. This toy has been showing up at Walmarts across the US.
For those unaware, Rodimus Unicronus may look like a Shattered Glass Rodimus, but is in fact a corrupt version of Rodimus, imbued with Unicron's influence through a dark Matrix of sorts - the Matrix of Chaos!
The video below goes takes us through this mustachioed evolved Leader class version, plus Nemesis Hot Rod, the smaller Deluxe robot/car, plus a comparison with the wave 1 Leader class Rodimus Prime, so check it out!

As a person who loves KOs, even I think it's a bit cheeky to give the wrong price to the shop staff. If it was a mistake on the customer's part, then fair enough. If the customer gave a false price, then that is akin to theft, or at least is immoral, surely?

As a person who loves KOs, even I think it's a bit cheeky to give the wrong price to the shop staff. If it was a mistake on the customer's part, then fair enough. If the customer gave a false price, then that is akin to theft, or at least is immoral, surely?

Alternatively, you could have told her he was $9.98, and just stuck one of the Battletrap figures under your shirt. Would have been the same difference, right?

That BB looks good. I wish they would remold the heads on this, the black AOE version and some other muscle car bots as I've of the micromaster patrols. Heck, I'd love to see the "drone" and b-list film hey figures repainted in unified colours (G1 generic seekers, all in black, micromaster patrols, etc) and sold in 3-packs.

I watched a review of Rodimus Unicronus a day ago, made by user SoundJack426. His was up before this one.william-james88 wrote:While Transformers Power of the Primes Rodimus Unicronus was the first wave 2 toy found at US retail (once again, the US being the first country for a sighting), no one made a video review. Until now that is, since Peaugh has now uploaded a review to Youtube. This toy has been showing up at Walmarts across the US.
For those unaware, Rodimus Unicronus may look like a Shattered Glass Rodimus, but is in fact a corrupt version of Rodimus, imbued with Unicron's influence through a dark Matrix of sorts - the Matrix of Chaos!
The video below goes takes us through this mustachioed evolved Leader class version, plus Nemesis Hot Rod, the smaller Deluxe robot/car, plus a comparison with the wave 1 Leader class Rodimus Prime, so check it out!

I am fairly certain it is considered fraud. Customers in the past have been in trouble for switching price tags. I would assume there is some leeway if the clerk asks you the price considering that if they don't know why would the customer know? Either way I really don't think purposefully misrepresenting a price is a good idea. Sure, walmart is kind of a scumbag corporation but I wouldn't want anyone to get into trouble over a figure.

I almost did that today. I found one on clearance at Walmart for $21, but that was still just a little bit more than I wanted to spend. That may also mark the very first time I passed up on buying one that I found in-store, but I do already have one, and I also just dropped almost $50 w/ tax on Rodimus Unicronus today as well. But hey, I resisted buying a transformer, baby steps.

Well they probably bought the figure for 2 or 3 bucks in bulk quantity and still made a profit at $4.99 so f**k em. If they wanna make $$$ they need to get their s**t together and not make stupid errors on the scanner codes. Besides walmart is a fortune 500 company. Think about the hundreds of millions they will make in stock buy backs after those Trump corporate tax cuts. So let it trickle down to the little guy one way or another. $4.99 legends, f**k it lol. Remember Im the guy who took a shrapnel to the counter to scan and paid full price. But I live in miami where the store workers know better. If somewhere in middle america store workers are really gullable and let you name youre price, thats on them. Buddy named his price. He didnt shove it under his shirt. He bought it fair and square.there was actually a time when a legends figure was 5 bucks. Everybody complains about the rising prices and the increased hollowness to save anyways.

You cant argue with a reciept. Whether he was smart or the cashier was stupid is irrelevant. The bottom line is he paid for it.
People on here whine and b**ch about rising prices, hollowed out plastic, crappy decals, and poor distribution. But the one time the little man one-upped the corporate giant everyone cries foul...
After I open some of these poor QC figures, I feel like Hasbro owes me money...

After the coverage of in-hand images for the latest voyagers in the Transformers Power of the Primes toyline, namely Hun-Gurrr and Elita-1, as you can see respectively here and here, we have another collection of images for the Carcerian/Autobot commander who will kill you with her forearms, and a silent video review, both courtesy of Atto Kempler on [url]Facebook[/url] and YouTube. The images, partially mirrored below, also show comparisons with other figures from the line, such as Optimus Prime, Grimlock and Starscream.
In addition, YouTube user Shaxitron has uploaded a video review of the Terrorcon double-headed torso Hun-Gurrr, after picking up the voyager at a Walmart store, and shows off robot, creature, and combiner torso mode on camera. Check it all out, and head to the Energon Pub to discuss!

I PERSONALLY have had to fire or write up an employee because they half-assed their job, the customer either had to give back the item or pay the right price and these items I'm talking about (as of recent) 4K Tv's and computers. Even customers using and knowing they have the wrong price match, if my employees dont do the correct check, it is on them. There are many definitions of theft, but that one is not it. It is the error of the employee for taking his word. Unlike most of the people posting, I'm not just spewing...

He didn't 'name his price' - he wasn't asked how much he would like to pay for the item, or how much he thought it should be worth - he was asked what price it is and he lied.
If you're going to say he deserves applause and hate on the employee for trying to provide good customer service, then you should likewise consider the shopping carts or the home & garden stuff outside to be free for anyone willing to take them - after all, if someone doesn't stop you from taking their things, that's obviously their fault, right? Anything you can get away with is fair game.
And if you think lying to someone is just being clever and 'outsmarting the system' - for the love of God, don't get married.
