More sighting news for you this morning, Battle Core Optimus Prime has been found at USA retail! Optimus Prime was found at a Toys ‘R Us in Saginaw, Michigan by TFW2005 member Deceptigtar.
Battle Core Optimus Prime and the rest of the Combiner Wars Deluxe Wave 4 series form the Optimus Maximus combiner as seen in the IDW Transformers ongoing.
Happy hunting TFW!

I'm def going to replace Motormaster since I am in love with the Stunticons, but that Optimus is just hideous and cheesey. I bought the normal red/blue Optimus and the tiny Rodimus at Target and ordered the deluxe case from BBTS and I couldnt be happier with the combined figure. It just looks so much nicer and more authentic. The Core Optimus isnt even a decent repaint. Imo, waste of 22 bucks.

Yeah the store prices probably cheaper then the online one. I haven't checked the prices at TRU ever since they started selling their deluxes at 20.

Ha!
Nevermore
I called it a few days ago and was mocked for it!

The revised Motormaster is more interesting to me in this wave.

You beat me to the punch lol, I thought he was out already! The TRU I work at had him for a few days before your post made the front page.

For a while the TrUs in my area were in par or cheaper than Target. They stayed at 24.99 while some Targets went up to 27.99 (some have been doing that since before Waspinator's wave.) My local TRU actually has Legends at 9.99 as opposed to 10.29 and up at all the Targets I visit.

I never saw bad hip Motomaster around my area. I preordered Nova Prime and Motormaster from Captured Prey , and got an email yesterday that they would be shipping out by the end of this week/early next week.

$26.99 according to TRU.com on their voyagers, Target's about the same as well for their voyagers. But definitely about time!

Way to go! Bet you didn't buy it though.

I guess you could say it took him 4 waves to hitchhike to Saginaw.

Yeah Toys R Us and Wal-Mart are both inundated with Motormaster figures here.
peaces
nope. we have the old motormasters here. stores like to put out old stock.

Given how long it's been since Wave 2 was on shelves, I think one could almost safely assume any Motormaster they find at this point to be the revised hip.
Especially if you know your store has already had Wave 3 voyagers or Wave 4 deluxes in stock.

There's two good things and 1 bad thing about this sighting.
Two good things are:
BC Prime is out
and with hip fix MM
Bad thing:
it was found at TRU and im sure he's $30 dollar instead of $24.99.
Either way, I want this Prime and MM!!!

Since when do we get transformers before anyone else? I've been at this since 08 and we've hardly ever even gotten waves before other states.

The revised hip Motormaster. Look for an embossed date code starting with a 5.

Going off the BBTS listings it's Motormaster.
