2010 isn’t over just yet, and neither are the late-day Transformers sightings! This time we’ve got a sighting of the Transformers Stealth Force motorcycles assortment. This assortment is priced lower than the regular Stealth Force Basic series and features simpler designs. This assortment features all-new to the Movie universe characters High Wire and Knock Out. They were found in a Wal-Mart in Athens, Ohio. Happy hunting Stealth Force fans!

Saw both of these at Wal-Mart yesterday. Knock-Out is a total let-down – his vehicle mode is cool and unique, but he's got like 2 weapons that pop out and they're both lame.
High Wire is a little better but I'm still not entirely sure he's worth $6-$7.
I did end up getting him, but only because I had a $5 coupon so I got him for like $2.

Got me a High Wire in POL @ BBTS, digging the G2 Road Rocket vibe the thing sets off.

I was meaning the official pics but a few aren't obvious from a side angle. (Though then again, others aren't obvious from a head-on angle, either.) High Wire has:
-Flip out four-barreled missile launcher fron the seat cushion
-Pop-up gun from the top of the body
-Two rotary guns from the sides of his body
-Exhaust pipes extend out a bit more
-Two dual-barreled guns from the lower sides of the body
That's a lot for this small of a toy.

Saw these today (for the first time) at target.

Which first pic? The only ones I've seen made it seem like both bikes didn't have a lot of weapons but maybe I was misinterpreting the pics.

I am a little disappointed with Knock Out because of that, but High Wire has a butt TON of weapons that fold out (check out the first pic–and there's even more there than it seems). So that's not the case with both of them.

Ehhh… I want to like these but they just don't seem to have a lot of weapons popping out and stuff. I LOVE some of the other basic Stealth Force toys like Soundwave and Barricade, and I want to like Knock Out because his vehicle is so unique, but he just doesn't seem to have a lot of weapons springing out and that really drags him down. Maybe we'll get an actual transformer based on that vehicle, that would be pretty excellent.

Just like you ignored this thread that obviously had to do with said non-transforming TFs, amirite?
They can, though alternately, they're just a tad small, though the size discrepancy isn't as obvious as with Repugnus:

Am hoping the little HA figures can ride Knock Out.
Anyone have a comparison pic with these bikes & the HA bikes?

Dang, I didn't know this was news. I sighted them over the weekend and posted in the NC Sighting section…LOL No pic though.

I want that KNock-Out, I think that is suck a cool real world design.

Saw these last week at my local target. The bike looked cool

No, a scout Human Alliance toy for the DOTM line.

I have no interest in the whole Speed Stars line whatsoever, but Knock Out has my attention, but never the kind of interest that makes me want to buy 'im – they would tease us with a picture of his robot form.
How 'bout a Deluxe of that bad boy, eh, Hasbro?

Meh….pass.

Looks like something from the Kama Sutra. And the face just NAILS it.

Non-Transforming craplogs released! Woot! Ingored on sight!

Well, since you brought it up, I actually snipped apart the cord that held his stomach to his waist, painted both of those parts with sloppy red streaks, and then had him in various humorous poses with my animal TFs for a few months. Then it got old and I threw the halves away.
Most of the ones you listed are in storage, but here's a fairly close one– Universe Repugnus riding Knock Out, I think he's only SLIGHTLY larger than one of the 3 3/4" figures:
So again, a bit on the big side, but doable if you crouch him down on there. Plus Repugnus' fist holes fit absolutely perfectly around Knock Out's handlebars.
