We’ve got word that the next assortment of Power of the Primes Legends have been appearing at both US specialist comic stores and conventional mass retail stores. Power of the Primes Legends Wave 3 includes the now-female Firecon Cindersaur as well as a welcome update of Generation 1 Minibot Outback, who are respectively retools of Power of the Primes Slash and Titans Return Legend Brawn, respectively.
They’ve been turning up in specialist stores across the US such as Forbidden Planet in New York, as well as in mass retail via Target in Pleasant Hill, CA. The mass retail sightings are also backd by some reports of sightings in Walmart in Washington State.
Happy hunting, one and all!

Never said that's a good thing, I also share your disdain for those figures. But the movie line had some awesome designs for some of the offscreen transformers, albeit mostly in the RotF series. I also think the figures were much less "hollow". Even with all of their freaking repaints, the movie line features more interesting designs and transformations than the IDW line, while the only thing that's kind of good about CW, TR and POP is that the transformers just look more like their cartoon version.

The design direction for those series is a good thing IMO. Personally, I never liked the movie line continually repainting the same Optimus Prime and Bumblebee molds over and over with barely any changes each time. Those were the worst examples of repaints to me. At least the Prime trilogy gives us different characters when it comes to repaints.

Just forget i said anything. I never liked the design direction they took with the CW/TR/POP series and i'm just blowing off steam.

Yea, had target do that with me a few times. Was grabbing the 25th Ann Joes for my cousin back in the day and they insisted that a new wave must have been clearanced out of the system (charging me about 45 cents each) and later with Sky Lynx. The later I “argued” with the front end supervisor that the price was $24.99 when she insisted that it was clearances out of the system and could sell it to me for $10. After telling her twice that it was $24.99, I decided that I wasn’t going to continue to tell her to charge me more and took my $10 sky lynx.

Also, people are constantly complaining about repaints, but go off I guess.

AND like I said the legends were at Walmart last week.

Hasbro\'s ebay had them for sale like a week or two ago, I already got the barney raptor and Outback Steakhouse\'s delivery vehicle
honesty I prefer outback to brawn
Nevermore
Outback was a retool of Brawn back in 1986…

@Sol Fury these were found at Walmarts in WA last week per our own postings on this board. Care to update the news story?

I also found these tonight at a local Target. They weren\'t in the system for whatever reason so the guy at Customer Service processed them as toy rewraps and put yellow As-Is tags on them and sold them to me for $6.96. Yes, both he and I both knew they were suppose to be $9.99, we even both commented on it, and he said the toy department was just a real mess right now because of all the clearances being done. Honestly, I don\'t know how Target\'s system works and I suppose if the employee had really wanted to, he could have gone back to toys and grabbed the shrapnel or slash that were still warming the pegs to scan those, but I\'m not going to complain too much about a lesser price for repaints.

I've seen people not giving a shit but Hasbro has turned it into an art. More repaints.

Well crap the one time I don't.

I saw em at Walmart too, check there maybe if your looking for them. I saw them same day I posted my all 5 Terrorcons/Abominus YT review up, last friday I believe.
I can only post a receipt for the 3 Terrorcons, I didn't buy the 2 Legends (tbh I don't really need them. Well, maaaybe Outback.. lol)

I thought people reported finding these sooner. Well in any case I also found them at Target in Huntington Beach (Southern California) last night.
