Thanks again to 2005 Board member ApocalypseThruster for reporting another sighting of new Transformer toys at US retail. This time he’s found the latest wave of Core figures from the Legacy line at his local Target store in California. This wave includes Shockwave and G2 Megatron.
Check out there photographic proof after the jump and discuss on the 2005 Boards!

Weird. I ordered G2 Megs and Shockwave from Amazon Jun 29/30th.

No freaking way. I was just at target in Florida today, and I found these suckers. Got excited and bought them on the spot. I literally NEVER find anything around here until 2-4 months after first sightings come in, so I figured I just missed this announcement and they were reported in the wild months ago.
im actually in shock that I\'m apparently one of the first – for once.

The wait is quite annoying especially when retail overseas have had them for over a month now.
But is it safe to say that they're holding off on them so that retail stores like Target and Walmart can sell their new exclusives first…?
I mean I wouldn't be able to care less about Cosmos (Walmart) or Predacon Terrorsaur (Target) if Knockout, Tarantulas, Wild Rider, etc. were the actual theme of this thread instead.
Hell, none of Amazon's "Wreck 'N Rule Collection" has sold out either, so it might not just be US retail. So as a result Wave 2 DLX are just sitting in storage or on a freight somewhere.
Either way I hope that changes soon. Legacy's Wave 1 DLXs have been out in stores since mid March!

Same. Too bad this wave is mostly repacks/repaints and not another pretender

So with all the waves at retail minus the Deluxes all the new stuff just announced probably gonna hit retail in like October November.

Alright, we've got the Voyagers and the Cores, now where are the Deluxes?

I never liked how the core box art has the characters drawn like the core figures. I feel like it just makes me imagine a world where everyone is really small
ApocalypseThruster
Genuinely hoping; I need my spider and ridey boys!

You’re on a roll. Can you please find the Legacy Wave 2 deluxes next?

So Deluxes are the only thing we're still waiting on.
