More new Transformers toy sightings for you now. Airachnid and the Cyberverse vehicles hit store shelves last week, and this week, it’s time for the big guns! Optimus Maximus, the Cyberverse giant battlebase that transforms into a large version of Optimus Prime, has been sighted at US retail. This one was sighted in the K-Mart in Penn Station, New York City by my good friend and fellow 2005 Boards member Bulkhead! The price rang up at $36.49, although the actual RRP might be a bit nearer to $30.
Happy hunting everyone!

Well so much for new toys hitting the west coast first..
Most Toys R Us here in Washington state still have shelves full over overstocked and over priced dark of the moon crap. Only stores I found with slightly new stuff is Target.
Flexx Ark
Pretty much. Lights and sounds with two buttons and when "transforming". I believe it is also setup to connect to other play sets.

Got mixed feelings about this guy! He looks awesome, but at the same time, he's only average. Bittersweet!

There's something really cool about this set but hav'nt figured it out yet.
Hopefully it'll be around for clearance.

Stupid Kmart. They're still using price tags. It's 2012! Stop it already!
Railguard
Well Kmart sucks at having anything at all but I won't bother with this lot, bring on Magnus!

i like the guy with the sword at the front, with all the guns and missiles, ratchet's like "get closer! i want to hit them with my sword!"
