2005 Boards member Dilbertron is giving us the heads up of his sighting of some new Prexio G1 Transformers Figurines Found at Dollar Tree.
These are six small and cool figurines of G1 Optimus Prime, Megatron, Bumblebee, Soundwave, Starscream and Grimlock (Dino mode) and come in small bags with the character art. They we re found at Dollar Tree in Beech Grove, Indiana.
Curiously, this is not the first time we have seen these figurines. They were first seen, in Evergreen blind bags art, as Coney Park game centers exclusives in Peru. They were also announced to be released in the US as part of the new Super Impulse World’s Smallest Transformers Line with a total new packaging.
Clcik on the bar to see the mirrored images on this news post and then sound off your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

This may be old news now, but I found these in blister packs in Dollarama in Canada yesterday. Grimlock, Bee, Starscream and Soundwave for $2 each.
Grabbed Grimlock so I can re-enact "Me Grimlock kick butt!" from TFTM.

I would guess that they are probably meant to be his tuning and volume dials, or something like that.

I don't know how I didn't notice until today, but the Soundwave figure, clearly based on his G1 tape-deck self, has molded/painted wheels on the back of his legs.

Finally got my set. However, I found it at a swap meet for $15 for the set of 6.

Finally tracked these down yesterday. Neat little things. I’d like to see more, but I doubt it’ll happen.
Ultra Reverb
Optimus got two extras. (I ordered a case)
Insane Galvatron
I'm guessing 8 of each with 2 extra. I wonder what the extra 2 would be?
GMANIFESS
I found them at two Dollar stores. One of which never got the G1 keychains.
Ultra Reverb
If you have a few friends to split the case with (unless you want 50 mini figs, no judging…), they're available to order from Dollar Tree's website, with free shipping to store.

These guys are pretty cool. Showing up in PA now.
Venixion
No luck last time I went. Boo.
Lazerwave
Have they been spotted in Canada yet?

Are the Super Impluse versions of these rare or in demand? Cause I actually did see them for sale somewhere a few months ago.
Insane Galvatron
I found a lone Grimlock on the floor at one of the 3 Dollar Trees I checked last night. No others at that store and nada at the other two. I've found multiple sets of the bag clips though. But I really wanted these to put on Unicron when he comes in.
geekatron prime
Sorry, should have said backpack clips. If your interested in those, I have an extra set of them.
