The third wave of Hunt for the Decepticons deluxe-class toys have just been spotted in Target stores. These two, Terradive and Tomahawk, are joined by Electrostatic Jolt in the wave. The receipt is from Newpark Mall in California. Thanks to our own xterry for the head’s up!

With the exception of the Legends, I have yet to see anything but wave one ANYTHING around here. I ordered Megatron, Straxus, Terradive, Hailstorm, and Tomahawk on hts.com and got Red Alert and Soundwave from bbts. I'll just grab Breacher and Oil Pan in the stores eventually, as I was so excited to find the others, I forgot to look for them when I did my hts order. That'll just leave the pcc's…

Wish that was the case in the UK. I've yet to see any Generations.
Not gonna happen.
I'm afraid 'the fans' don't all share your opinion… myself included. Also, the later Universe waves are still shelfwarming here, long after the ROTF stuff has sold out.
RipCurl
I haven't even seen wave 1 here yet ¬¬
Skyclaw
PASS on Tomahawk cause he looks too much at a power ranger wanna be.
Terradive is a must have for me!!!
GNX 0014 Purity
I have them coming from BBTS
Scantron
There have been occasional sightings of HftD Wave 2, but most of my local stores (especially Target) are packed with Wave 1, so I don't expect to see these at retail for awhile. Fortunately, Terradive and Tomahawk are both in my BBTS PoL, waiting to ship.

Settle down, Lima will get its turn! Right after Miami. I still haven't found wave 2! You're so spoiled, in the 80's there was no reliable Transformers distributor in Lima. You had to go to the freaking Polvos Azules Flea Market. The other alternatives were Sears or Saga (not often, but they did have japanese toys). I hope you get them soon.

I hope the stores and to an extent Hasbro are realizing that without a movie, a DVD, or a TV Series Cough TF rime Cough, kids have no appeal to getting the toys.
This will be the scenario,
Mom: Do you want this toy, Tim? (Holds out Jetblade)
Tim: He wasn't in the movie at all.
OR
Mom: Do you wan this toy, Tim (Holds out deluxe Ironhide)
Tim: I already have a bigger one.
I hope deluxe wave 4 is the last wave of movie toys.
I'm personally tired of movie toys. I want more Generations toys. It's a pity that what the fans want there is very little, but the the stuff retailers want is a lot. I hope TF3' s subline does the opposite.
Nonetheless, I might get Terradive and/or Tomahawk when they hit stores.

My consumption of new figures is certainly slowing down, if it already hasn't slown down. I don't see myself picking these up.

Well here in minnesnowta, they're now 15$….I got then when they were 11$…
My target was a bust….
Off to HTS

Very little of the HFTD and PCC's at Walmart have come in order. My store received PCC waves one and two in the same week so who knows what's goin on.
Railguard
Well thats cool, at least they ARE coming out soon.

Well, at least it (the time lag for distribution of new waves for HFTD and Generations) gives me time to recover my finances…
Tigermegatron
terradive & tomahawk are 2 deluxes on my must get list. as these toys look awesome in both modes & have great color schemes.
I kinda like that fact that terradive looks a bit like that cybertron beast planet deluxe sized dino-bird.
Tigermegatron
Actually they cost $12.99 each. with tax in my state being six percent,the total cost is $13.90 each.
Autovolt 127
Ah! Tomahawk and Terradive, you shall be mine for christmas. muhahahaha!
Jarodimus
Which means absolutely nothing.
damgon
these items were on the Kmart web since 2 weeks 1/2 ago. nobody check the stores web to see of they have it or not do your home work, grimlock, iron hide, and rodimus animated will be coming up soon at toy-r-s web, just keep on looking.

I dunno, they initially had a TON of them around here, but the WfC duo is selling fairly quickly. Totally agreed on Ravage and Jetblade– I think it was mighty stupid of them to include two repaints of toys that were fairly shelf-warming when they were FIRST released in the first wave of a new toyline.
Even Ironhide and to an extent Battle Blades Bumblebee are staying on pegs, though. I think the movie excitement has just died down for kids without any other (well-known) media to keep the hype up.
Top sellers in my area:
-Activators (these things are HOT sauce, or some reason. My local store had a butt TON of these when they re-did their toy aisle about 3 weeks ago, and as of yesterday they were down to ONE. If this is widespread, I think this is a sign Hasbro needs to simplify the transformations of their mainline toys a little more, especially considering that the next top sellers are…)
-Power Core Combiners (either size class)
-Generations figures
Bottom sellers in my area:
-Anything yellow-box except Legends. These things are barely moving at all.
-Stealth Force figures
(The other Speed Stars and yellow-box Legends are somewhere in the middle among the assortments in terms of how fast they move.)

I can't wait for Terradive
