Still trying to track down some of those elusive Reveal the Shield figures like Voyager Solar Storm Grappel and Scout Class Windchager? There's still hope of finding these guys at retail, and at a discounted price to boot. Last week we reported that the Reveal the Shield Deluxes were starting to show up at discount chains such as Marshalls, TJ Maxx, and Ross. Now it would appear the entire line from the G1 Legends all the way up to Voyagers are starting to show up, including the ever popular Scout Class Windcharger!

Our own staff member Diem as well as Seibertron member joevill (see his haul below) have found the Voyager Wave at Ross discount stores priced at $9.99.

TFW05 member SwindlesShop found Scout Windcharger at Ross for $4.99.

Reports have also come in that the Reveal the Shield G1 Legends are also showing up at Marshalls for $7.00.

So there you have it, if you missed out on these figures start hitting your local discount chains.

Awesome. I hope there's a box set with those somewhere.

I've now found all the RTS Deluxes that I want. I jut hope that I can get Rumble, Lugnut, and Grapple. However, since Frenzy was never even announced, and since Hasbro canceled the Scout wave with Rumble, I wouldn't be terribly surprised if some time in the next year or so, they release a two-pack with Rumble and Frenzy.

From my experience, Ross stores almost never restock Transformers. If you want them badly, check often, and make sure you're the first there.

CRAAAAAAAAP, I hope there's an outlet for these in Canada. Most likely Winners. I managed to get all the ones released thus far, but if Rumble (RIRFIB) gets released this way, I will need him.

I have hit up every TJ Maxx and Marshalls in Indiana, nine in all, and the only RTS they have is Deluxes and Legends in very limited quantities. And only two of the nine had anything. I think this is going to be hit or miss. Hopefully not, but probably. But, you never know! The only RTS figure that I don't have that I would like is Lugnut. I won't pay the $30 online price, but if I see it for $10 its mine. The guy above is right though, they don't restock, so I think people are getting a lot of false hope here. Stay tuned...

Aw, I don't know of any Rosses anywhere near me...
And the one TJ Maxx I know of has a really crappy toy section. Not at all organized, all the toys are just tossed on the shelves on the far wall.

That's good though, it means the distracted mums and small kids won't snatch them before you 'cos they won't be able to find them. I've found some treasures lurking behind boxes.

I don't. That sucks. Everyone should have a Windcharger that wants one. Hopefully scalpers like me will help drive prices down on the secondary market.

PS: Looks at my sales thread :lol:

I actually like the United versions better and Strafe has no place with me anyway. It's awesome that folks are gonna be able to get them easily though and at a discount too. Even better.

Just picked up legends Megatron and Optimus. I grabbed deluxe Perceptor as well. Will be going back for more. Many thanks to whoever found this, I've wanted those legends since I first saw the pictures here. Finding these RTS/Generations figures has been hell until this.

Checked one(of 5) of our Ross stores and TJMaxx(they're next door to each other). Grabbed Windcharger and Legends Optimus(they didn't have Starscream, but did have Megatron, who I stupidly bought at Botcon for $15).

If I find Lugnut at TJMaxx I will be supremely happy I missed out on him at botcon.

He's the ONLY figure left on my want list that's now out!

Re: Reveal the Shield Line Showing Up at Discount Chains: Legends Though Voyagers (1236390)
Posted by DJLazer on June 8th, 2011 @ 9:03pm CDT

oh yeah, at my local ross there was a lugnut, grappel, and deep dive. Only bought lugnut and grappel.

Re: Reveal the Shield Line Showing Up at Discount Chains: Legends Though Voyagers (1236394)
Posted by Kondorsigma on June 8th, 2011 @ 9:06pm CDT

can anyone confirm whether lugnut, strafe, solar storm, windcharger and chopsaw are Ross store exclusives? I've scoured many TJ Maxx's and Marshall's recently and have not seen any of these figures. This is all i've found:
-Marshalls: RTS bumblebee, optimus, wreck-gar and perceptor. Legends trailcutter, goldbug, megatron, starscream, prowl and optimus. Leader optimus and starscream. Many other RTS scouts.
-TJ Maxx: no RTS. More return of the fallen figures.

I can't imagine that based on the large RTS line up at Marshalls that they'll also get solar storm and windcharger. Here is hoping that TJ Maxx may come through as I don't have any Ross stores in my area.

I'm in Mass/NH area.

Man, I shoulda stopped at Ross on my way to the Coldwell Banker customer reception I went to tonight. I already hit two Marshalls and one TJMaxx in my area but I always forget Ross exists because I never go to that corner of the shopping center it's in. Will have to hit the other Marshalls I know of as well. Been wanting to get my hands on Grappel and Windcharger.

Posted by Rated X on June 8th, 2011 @ 9:42pm CDT

Dammit !!! I paid $48 for a Windcharger at the club store at Botcon and got stuck with a bunch of scouts. But f**k it, it wasnt worth the risk of not getting him. So Hasbro wasnt to blame after all. They had the stock hidden somewhere all along. It was all Walmart, Target, and TRU's fault for choosing to pass on RTS to jump on the DOTM bandwagon.

But Im still very happy for everyone who will now get a chance to own these figures. This is bad news for scalpers. You just got your face used for toilet paper !!! :lol:

Doesn't Marshalls and TJ Maxx generally get the same Transformers stock as Ross? Here's hoping they show up there soon.

I've heard a lot of people say that, but I didn't find that to be true earlier this year. ROSS was getting a bunch of "cancelled" G.I.Joe stuff and I didn't see any of it at our Marshall's and TJ Maxx.

I hope it's different this time!

The same thing happened to me, We were supposed to find the Desert Snake and Target Alpha Wave 3 ROC vehicles at TJ Maxx/Marshalls and I never saw them. Hope to see the voyagers as I have everything else.

I went to a ross today also looking for RTS guys, and noticed this myself. They had several deep dives, but I had to pass. Even at 10 dollars, I just dont have the budget right now.

Well no Ross stores in ne Ohio. But when the initial story broke about Marshall's having RTS deluxe and legend I got Perceptor, wreck-gar, otimus (legend) and megs (legend. Was really happy with that. Now to find Grapple.

I've recently been sending a few Windchargers Stateside from the UK, looking for fair trades for stuff that has failed to come out over here rather than trying to jack up the price, and am wondering if it's worth me continuing to pick up any more at UK retail to help out US board members now that these are showing up. Any thoughts?

I went to Marshalls, TJ Maxx and a Gordmans last night and they didnt have squat.

If any you guys near stores with surplus Perceptors and Wreck Gars, would you be willing to help a brother out?

Posted by Stockade on June 9th, 2011 @ 7:01am CDT

I was just at Marshalls the other day and saw Chopsaw, hubcap, and a few other scouts, but no Windcharger. Then in the next isle i saw RTS G2 Prime, HA BB, HA, ShadowBlade SS and LC Hooks Prime, so after seeing the RTS line there and reading this I hope RTS Grapple, Lugnut and WC hits home everywhere!

What?! 10 dollars?? They'll cost seven times more IF they get to Norway. TFs of that size costs atleast 399NOK ($72) here.

No wonder why I never shops for TFs in local stores any more.

If you see more, yeah go for it. I don't think we'll be seeing too many Windchargers and co... maybe only a handful per Ross store.

What state do you live in?

There's at least one Ross, TJ Maxx and Marshalls at every major shopping center in Florida. They're everywhere here. I could easily hit 4 in one afternoon if I was inclined to waste a quarter tank of gas.

Edit: NM, I now have a route where I can hit six stores in one long outing, plus two more out of the way if I really wanted to waste gas.
