We’ve got a report that the Robots in Disguise Titan Heroes Drift and (presumably) Grimlock have turned up on US retail shelves. The pair were spotted on an endcap at a Fry’s Electronics in Austin, TX. These may well have been in circulation for a while – but this is the first time we’ve got a confirmed report that the pair of non-transformable figures have made it to retail. Props to TFW2005 member charlesd for the heads up.

Wait, I take that back – I completely forgot that someone was accidentally sent Titan Guardians Grimlock when ordering Warrior Class Grimlock from an Amazon third-party seller a few months ago:

So they're apparently out there… somewhere.

Nope, haven't been found anywhere yet, except possibly in Brazil.

Yes, that's the one I'm talking about.

You're talking about Titan Guardians Strongarm, who's smaller and has another same-sized Grimlock as his wave-mate?
AlexaStar
Has the Strongarm one been spotted anywhere?

I did see him. He and Thundercracker were at my local Target. Unfortunately I didn't have the money to get either/both of 'em.

Skywarp was in stock at my local walmart on Friday.
They had like 4 of him. So maybe he'll be showing up near you soon

My son loves the Titan Heroes he has, so this is good news. Thanks for sharing.

To Hell with Drift, I want that Combiner Wars Leader Skywarp!

As seen in this photo posted by TFW2005 user charlesd here:
That's Titan Heroes Drift in the upper right. I assume that might be his wave-mate Grimlock behind him.
The photo was taken at Fry's Electronics in Austin, Texas.
I'm very sure these have been out at US retail for a while already, but up until now, no-one saw a need to report them, either because people don't care for these "shampoo bottles" (not my term) or because, once again, everyone "didn't think they were news".
