Following the recent release of the Animated Activators Wave 3 assortment in the United States, 2005 Boards member tamo536 has found the Activators Wave 4 assortment at a Toys ‘R Us in Newhall, California. The new figures in the Wave 4 assortment are Grimlock, Megatron, and Bandit Lockdown. Click on the image to the left for picture proof of the sighting.

If you're looking for these, your best bet is actually Kohl's. At least in Illinois, all of the area stores are stocking up for Christmas this week. One store I hit had several each of Grimlock, Megatron, and Bandit Lockdown out. Transformers are 20% of this week, so the final costs ends up being that of the discount stores (Walmart, Target).
For the G.I. Joe collectors, they're also stocking the Wraith wave of singles as well as the Hard Master/Storm Shadow two-pack wave.

Spotted on the west coast? SWEEEET! Getting $paid$ tomorrow… yay for more hunting ammo. Pass on Bandit Lockdown. I am still confused as to why Bandit's molds are getting so many redecos between this fig and the Deluxe fig. Seems a bit odd. It's not the best Activator mold, and the Deluxe one has a few problems that I hope they fix. But why Lockdown? Is he that big of a fan favorite (of the show) and I missed it?
For anyone out there that hasn't yet had the chance to play around with the Activators figs, I strongly recommend you do. I have been very happy with them.

Forgetting Bandit Lockdown… DO want Megatron and Grimlock though, just wish Megs could use his fusion cannon in robot mode.

Grimlock's the only activator I plan on getting. He should be in my area in about a month or more if I'm lucky.
