yeah but at this price point this crap will sell fast….look at the repaints /reissues of the scouts from the first movie that were target exclusives…those flew out of stores fast and off the website quickly….granted those were around $9/$10 but still …2nd round of repaints from the first movie and BAM! gone daddy gone…

I guess Walmart doesn't already have enough crappy exclusives that won't sell clogging up the clearance aisle.
How much of this garbage are they gonna pump out? They should have learned with Skywarp & Ramjet but no, they just keep on cranking the crap out.

will pick up the beachcomber set on site.

Can't wait to get Beachcomber and Spoons

love both beachcomber and deadlift. they look like sweet repaints. ill be on the lookout
Jarodimus
Nice!
Will get Beachcomber and Spoonlift for sure. Doubt I'll get the other set, though I do like the name "Trenchmouth" and support the resurrection of "Slapdash". (Even though the deco is a Greaser homage.)
Sportimus
You got a 2GB Memory Card for $11.88?!?! AWESOME!!!!!
And the scouts look nice too. I think I want the other set though.

I wouldn't mind Beachcomber and Slapdash, but I'm not interested enough in them and don't want their packmates, so I can't justify the $16 for each set right now. I might pick them up when they hit clearance.

Beachcomber looks nice. I'll get the 2-pack just for him if I must.

Eh, as much as the Beachcomber entices me…I shall have to pass.

I'd rather them not be 2-packs. I'd probably pick up Beachcomber by himself, but I really dont want an orange Dirtboss.
Also has anyone ever seen scouts on sale for anything under the $7.50-$8.50 range. I'd have a lot more if they were cheaper.

He's talking about Canadian Scout retail, note his location.
I can live with them being WM exclusive; hope to see them soon!

Are you talking about the 2 packs that was released in November? They where on sale for $9 on black Friday and it was raised to $11 after.
prime13
What?! Over here, they're $11!
grimlock1972
ill be watching for these
all are dead
Does Slapdash and Trenchmouch ship with this set as well?
Edit:found my answer in the first post Duh…

The standard price for scouts is $8 anyway. I'd rather pay the same as if they were released separately than pay more.

This is a bit steep for me when I have both molds already. I'm trying to get all the mainline g1 repaints, though, so I may bite.
Optimus Prime
Nice, I've been looking forward to Beachcomber and Spoons for a while.

Ah, okay, if that's the case then I definitely would've noticed something like that. Thanks for the info, you saved me a trip. (And I have to work on Wednesday so I'll probably see them on the off-chance you're wrong anyways.)
