Although we have previously seen images of the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Autobot Strike Mission box set, where this set would be available was not known until today. 2005 Boards member Jerrod reports finding the Autobot Strike Mission set at the Sam’s Club store in San Antonio, Texas. The set features the previous releases of Breakaway and Rampage, along with new battle-damaged paint decos for Longarm and Sideways. The set sells for $39.82. Check out picture proof of the sighting by clicking on the thumbnail to the left.

Already got 2 out of 4 (Breakaway and Sideways), no point in duplication. PASS.

only interested in Long arm so ill pass
Captain Acehole
I already have Sideways and Breakaway so there's no reason to get this. Then on top of that, Longarm's repaint Hoist gets trapped in a box with that hideous Mixmaster.
Ugh. I hope down the line there's a way to get the Longarm mold easily.

the only one worth a damn is longarm and even then you still have to unscrew the gun from his hand…the others are just serious turd muscles

Sam's Club or as well as Costco … are supposed to have deeper discount… for example the Leader class Optimus Prime found earlier (in July) at Costco was at $35.xx while most stores were selling at $45~. So my claim of unattractive price was just a justification by that.
Now looking at this club exclusive… all of them are original mold… I am surprised if this set gets sold out before Christmas…
(edit : ) oh wait a minute… looking at the sticker again… it said "2 Exclusive Battle damage xxxxxx" hmmmm….
SALI
Now I know why there were "DARK" variants for Breakaway and Sideways, it was intended for this set…ha-huh!!!

HA! I can make the exact same comment in this thread as I just did in the Costco thread while just changing Costco to Sam's Club:
TIE Bomber
They're putting out so much crap this year it's amazing!

Those were some good ideas actually…..wish hasbro had considered them
Dran0n
Dang… I kind of wanted it. Oh well.

I wouldn't even havr a problem with a red Rampage being in a Costco exclusive 4 pack IF all four were new decos. The thing I find the most offensive is packing in exclusiv deco toys with toys already commonly released. This is the sort of thing we saw with Cybertron Voyager Vector Prime and Starscream 2-pack. Packing an exclusive redeco and a repackage together is one of the worst offenses a toy company can make in selling products, IMHO.
ORIO
Eh. superpass. I can't say I've ever been interested in one of their exclusives actually
Superquad7
Agreed on all counts here. <$40 is a nice price for these. Chill folks.
Nevermore
Erm. For all those who complain about Rampage not being red.
Can you imagine the OUTRAGE if red Rampage was released as part of an exclusive four-pack?
Based on the Walmart list from back in April, there's gonna be a red redeco of Rampage eventually. As a single pack mass release. So chill out.

so random

Eh, nothing appealing about this set. I remember the set from a few years ago, the Yellow RID PRime and Black and blue RID Ultra Magnus. I just found those recently in my basement. Cool figs. These guys? Not so much….

This could have been a good set if they were all unique repaints. Let's see the same four molds done as (for instance)
Longarm – a Decepticon Tow-Truck Drone named Heavy Load
Sideways – Autobot Silverstreak
Rampage – Red Rampage
Breakaway – named Stormjet or Skyfire, in G1 Jetfire colors
See, now at least it's original.
Two repackages, and two minor battle damage redecos? NOT INTERESTED.
Autobot Burnout
Sam's Club? Meh, the only two I really have any interest in anymore are Sidesways and Longarm (since Rampage sorta disapointed me when I've handled him and I already own Breakaway), and even then only Longarm for the actual figure. Sideways (who I've also fiddled with, very disapointing in that he's very hard to stand up) has the battle damage along with Longarm, but the Hoist repaint (who comes with that rather stupid-headed Mixmaster in the TRU set) appeals to me more, so I may actually pass on this set.
DecepticonSpike
They're all deluxe class, right? They go for $10 a piece separate, so it's the same price.

hope it at least gets to the east side!
