"Just an FYI to all board members, Target is doing their fall reset for Toys THE WEEK OF AUGUST 5TH. Ultimate Bumblebee will be featured on an endcap beginning that week as well.

So I was browsing at the new planogram for boys action and saw something interesting. An item on the planogram has a DPCI of 087-06-0413 and the description in the line listing was "Transformers G1". This is the old DPCI for the 6-inch titaniums and the product image picture (a mock up to show what the aisle will look like) shows a picture of a 6-inch titanium box!

Could Titaniums make a brief comeback to Target shelves in early August? I will report back tomorrow morning after I do some more investigating at work tonight."


Anyone hoping it is true like me? We still have at least two new molds to get on the market, and many people have not seen molds all the way back to 'The Fallen'.

So this is certainly welcome news, if it is true.

Im sure alot of stores have old cases full of them hidden in the back. Hell last week TRU had a few re-issue soundwaves.

EDIT: also does any one know the DCPI number for voyager megatron?

The DPCI for voyager Megatron is the same as every other voyager. Only exclusives have unique DPCIs

Besides Prowl and Grimmy, what else is there in those 6 titaniums left? Skywarp? I hope so since he'd be a simple repaint. :cool: Any ideas?

Speaking of exclusives, would you happen to know the DPCI and pricing for the Bumblebee 2-pack? (Evolution Of A Hero, as seen on eBay)

Thanks, in advance!

P.S. if all you can find out is just the number, that would be fantastic.

Anyway, this is good news. Finally I'll get my hands the Titaniums I missing(namely Sunstorm and the Fallen). And I get paid then too :DANCE: :DANCE: :DANCE: :DANCE: :DANCE:

No Skywarp was shown the door, and not allowed to come back.

In other words, they said no to him.

The Soundblaster repaint of Soundwave with Ravage maybe? It was supposed to happen like Skywarp. Also Primal Prime, you know the red white and blue version of Optimal Optimus.

I work at Target and I saw this as well. They're probably overstock from the distribution centers. Old characters maybe? And as Dark Magnus said, the dpci is the same for every character of that scale unless its an exclusive, because then it comes in its own box. I work backroom in case anyone is wondering.

Wait, they're repainting the crappy Soundwave, and the unimpressive Optimal Optimus, but they're not doing a Skywarp on a mould that is actually good? Sheesh, they must've had their heads in the toilet too long or something. :( Maybe I'll hopefully pick up Sunstorm to even out my collection.

Well the Soundwave is up in the air like skywarp, but we were not given a no on him, as we were Skywarp.

However, there was not one in the display case as there was Primal Prime.

I don't think it would be overstock from the DCs since they should have cleared out their stock when we clearanced them out way back. I think we'll be seeing new cases coming in from now until the line ends.

Some new info. The tag says "Transformers 6" G1" and the price is $15.99. Also the spot alloted for the item is 8 inches wide, so it fits the description of og 6-inch titanium box. All signs point to this being the definite return of titaniums to Target.

I got Fallen, Cheetor, and Sunstorm from Hasbro's online shop and they rock it very nicely. Still haven't seen them at retail. I've read that this line is getting canned. It would be better if they retooled some way like focusing on War Within and Beast Machines or something. Despite all the crying, the winners of this series are really great shelf pieces for $15. The emphasis was on display, not play, which confused folks for some reason.

hopefully this will be our chance to see G1 magnus,the fallen, and WW Magnus on the shelves, as no one has seen them out much. since they are already out in the UK and Canada, I like to think that they held them off until the movie line had sold out some.

I hope :(

QFT.

I ordered WW Megatron, The Fallen and G1 Ultra Magnus from BBTS. A few weeks ago, I got the WWI Prime vs. Megatron 2-pack at TRU, so all that is left for me is Sunstorm, perhaps Grimlock.

They are building a Super Target near me now, along with another one that already exists, so bring on the 6" Titaniums!

Bumblebee 2-pack 087-06-0905


Thank you! I just called one of my local Targets and the woman said:

"Well it's in the system, but there's a question mark next to it, which isn't a good sign. I have absolutely no idea when this one's coming in, and according to you, it's exclusive to our store, which is a real pain. Go ahead and give it a week and give us a call back. We should actually have a little more info on it's due date if nothing else."

Hmm. Does it say at all when it might be expected? I'd think it would be due around the time period of this reset, but I don't know the inner workings of Target, so I don't want to be presumptuous.

a couple months back, when i stopped collecting toys and junk, whenever i would go to target i would go to the toy section for ol' times sake. once when i passed through i saw a titanium prime on clearance for $4.99, but i passed since i hadnt bought a toy in months and i deemed it would be a waste of money since was done with collecting. but recently with the movies release, im kinda back, and boy o boy do i regret passing on that prime. just thought id share :D . moral of the story? i dont know. peace.

I went to target and saw the "Transformers 6" G1" with the price of $15.99, but but the shelf was empty. Can anyone comfirm if there are actually Titaniums coming to target?

YES THERE ARE TITANIUMS AT TARGET. A FEW DAYS AGO I PICKED UP OPTIMUS, RODIMUS, AND STARSCREAM. TODAY AT ANOTHER TARGET, I SAW ALL OF THE SAME FIGURES AGAIN. TARGET DOES HAVE TITANIUMS.

You guys might want to expand your Titanium search to TRU too. I was just at one, and among all the other crap they've had for a while (surfer monkey Prime ftl!), they had a ton of WW Prime vs. Megatron two-packs. I mean, they had A LOT; the shelves were full with them and, when I looked in the overstock above, it was filled with them as well.

I'd say it's probably a clearance, but the sheer volume of that one two-pack makes me think it was a new shipment.
