The official street date for Transformers Age of Extinction (12 May online, 17 May brick & mortar) is right around the corner, but we’ve got more reports of early releases for you, this time at Target! The Age of Extinction Leader class toys, Optimus Prime and Grimlock, are out on shelves and in some areas you might even be able to purchase them now! We’ve got a confirmed purchase of the Leader class Grimlock at Columbus Ohio, plus shots of both toys chilling on shelves along with Age of Extinction beanies and an Optimus Prime roleplay shield from Charlotte NC. Check it all out attached to this post.

Wow!
That dashboard looks incredible!
Joking aside, I like Leader Grimlock quite a bit now, but I can't decide if I should go for it or get the Voyager instead?

I'm aware of that trick, but didn't have the UPCs until just now when you posted them. Thank you, I'll get the Target thread updated later today when I'm at work.
Thanks! =D

I was able to grab a pair of these in Willoughby Ohio. (I think it was Willoughby, it was in the plaza with Red Robin.) Anyway, I can understand some of the complaints, I really can, but these figures are actually quite good.

Wow looks good. I can't wait for them to hit en mass.

Definite buy. The plush that is. Maybe the shield. But not that $45 chromed thing.

The main description says May 12th as the street date release,but the 17th for brick & mortar stores,has this been confirmed by Hasbro or is this just a hoax,if it is legit can someone point me to where its written.Thanks guys.

Saw both Optimus and Grimlock a little bit ago at my Target. No pricing on shelving except for a lot of clearance items(go figure Beast Hunter huge Op and those hollow plastic dolls)but nothing else from movie line. Went to scan barcode for the price, a whopping $45 DOLLARS a piece!
Sheesh, I was really tempted with Optimus just so I can scrap the backpack and paint it up, but not for that smaller no electrics leader classless hunk of plastic. I'll wait till price drops or not pick it up at all. I can't support some of Hasbro current trends at this time.

Actually i was eyeing that Darksteel up top!!! LOL. Yeah all this chrome is slapped on the figure to justify the price. Sad there's no lights or electronics on that thing. It's also smaller than the last leaders we got from the previous movie. So i really don't know how they think they can justify that amount for a simpler figure with less plastic and no electronics.

I LOVE that Grimmy.
