Target / KB / WalMart TFs

Post by Ironhide »

Does anyone know of some list of what exclusives have been released by these stores?
I just found that Target did a movie Armorhide which looks fantastic, and I never knew it even existed... :shock:
I can't miss out like this... :lol:

Thanks Catilla,
I never did notice the store exclusive section all the way down there...! :P
Irony would have it that this actual TF, the target exclusive Armorhide, isn't listed there... :P
Of course TFL, being the wonderful site it is, does list it, but I never noticed, since movie TFs are listed rather than presented with pics (why's that btw?)

No Snarl, they are part of the same group but not the same store chain. Wal-Mart is much bigger then Asda, and Asda don't sell Wal-mart exclusives. :(

I can't believe I thought Cassettes were the way of the future.

Catilla,
I looked up Clocker and yes, he looks sweet! But to be honest, I like the Cybertron Swerve remold/recolour even better.
I'll definitely get them, thanks for the tip! :)

I picked up Armorhide along with some others when I went on holiday to Florida. They looked really confused when I just dumped about 10 transformers and a load of random sweets at the checkout. Then I spoke, and we all laughed about it 8)

Unfortunately, I couldn't take the boxes home (no room in cases) so just left them in my hotel room!

I kept the backs, I think. Just not the plastic. There was really no room!

I bought way too much on that trip, and I had to buy another large bag to take stuff home in.

My small town already has Sainsburys, Tesco Express, Lidl, Aldi, Spar and recently a Marks & Spencer which has closed down. Before that we had Iceland and Kwiksave as well. Plus there's a couple of corner shops/post office type shops too which sell food and stuff.

We were all surprised when Subway opened up here! What a great day that was :D

We also have a Costa Coffee, Starbucks and a Cafe Nero all within a couple hundred yards of each other! We already had a few decent independant coffee places. Pointless!
