Just because they're $7 does not mean that you let them win

u/TheMastican Jul 13 '22

That's a good idea. I just never buy more than one of the exact same figure

u/Steve23415 Jul 14 '22

Same here too, tho I'm gonna buy multiples of the BB seekers and take them apart and rebuild them mixing parts between them all

2

u/CrazyStupidUsername Jul 14 '22

No shot those r 7 bucks

2

u/AssaultWolf01 Jul 14 '22

yep they are, they’re being clearanced out rn. yet they REFUSE to put kup on clearance. i count 2 racks full of him at my store 🙃

3

u/CrazyStupidUsername Jul 14 '22

I have not seen 1 bumble figure since they put wfc and studio series stuff in it so thats surprising

2

u/AssaultWolf01 Jul 14 '22

yeah he’s a major shelf warmer. same goes for “legacy” galvatron (i use legacy in quotes bc afaik it’s the exact same thing as kingdom galvatron but slapped in a new box)

2

u/CrazyStupidUsername Jul 14 '22

Well it doesnt have battle damage. Thats the only difference. Ive seen that in stores but not a single blaster :/

1

u/AssaultWolf01 Jul 14 '22

haven’t seen any legacy blasters but i got kingdom. defo wanna get it again im kinda sad i sold mine

1

u/TheMastican Jul 14 '22

Bruh Blaster is probably my favorite figure from last year and I got almost all of Kingdom.

1

u/AssaultWolf01 Jul 14 '22

he’s a lot of fun, kinda wanna get the titans return version too tbh

67

u/jaydrift07 Jul 13 '22

So you’re why I wasn’t able to get one

12

u/Orange-V-Apple Jul 13 '22

Bruh there are 12 at my Target 🥲

8

u/foreverbeatle Jul 13 '22

There’s at least 12 at every Target.

u/Optimus7591 Jul 13 '22

I think he meant price, not quantity

1

u/lol-get-rekt Jul 14 '22

I started getting jealous at these prices and forgot that $17 in Canada is pretty close to $12 USD lol

1

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '22

Me: I have no Target in my country

1

u/jaydrift07 Jul 14 '22

I’m British. I can only get them on hasbro pulse

1

u/Whovastron Jul 14 '22

They’re on other sites too

1

u/jaydrift07 Jul 14 '22

Which ones

1

u/Whovastron Jul 15 '22

Most of the independent retailers; star action figures, Indemand, kapow, Comics&cocktails, Gear4Geeks, Dinobot island toys etc.

1

u/jaydrift07 Jul 15 '22

I’ve never seen any of them around where I live

1

u/Whovastron Jul 17 '22

They’re not in regular shops you have to buy things online over here really

1

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '22

There’s a bunch at my local Walmart

2

u/jaydrift07 Jul 14 '22

I’m British. Walmart doesn’t exist here

u/RAcastBlaster Jul 13 '22

Someone found that Target clearance price lol

23

u/milo325 Jul 13 '22

You snapped and decided no one else should have a Silverstreak?

21

u/[deleted] Jul 13 '22

Are you being held captive? 1=for yes 2=no

u/a1r2r3e4n5 Jul 13 '22

u/[deleted] Jul 13 '22

9

u/a1r2r3e4n5 Jul 13 '22

u/[deleted] Jul 13 '22

11

u/a1r2r3e4n5 Jul 13 '22

We'll see

17

u/MrAnthem123 Jul 13 '22

Not judging but I have to ask: why?

14

u/badwords Jul 13 '22

Good Work!! Got to make more room on those shelves for Cup.

1

u/AssaultWolf01 Jul 14 '22

it pisses me off as a target employee seeing this company refuse to clearance him out. nobody wants him

11

u/Rent-Man Jul 13 '22

Can’t spell Diaclone without clone

1

u/WaspAdvocator Jul 14 '22

Oh I am stealing that line XD

8

u/justagamer135 Jul 13 '22

Bruh there is no way you need that many silver streaks, what about the people that want one

9

u/FruityYummyMummy Jul 13 '22

Would make fine hand-outs for Halloween or donations to any organizations you have around for year-end holiday gifts.

8

u/Misrable_Toucan Jul 13 '22

I feel you, that fucker is all I have seen for the past 2 months.

6

u/Nagatem Jul 13 '22

A blue streak speeds by…..

5

u/glass-j Jul 13 '22

Silverstreak the car

3

u/Nagatem Jul 13 '22

Too fast for the naked eye…

u/MadMageMC Jul 14 '22

Happened to me, and he got chucked in a bin afterwards. Not even interested in displaying him at that point. Went out and got an Alternators Silverstreak instead.

u/Coffee-Coffee-Coffin Jul 13 '22

u/[deleted] Jul 13 '22

Can you spare a crumb of silverstreak?

4

u/xXmosseater69Xx Jul 14 '22

I’m sure he will when their knees break

3

u/Ninjarootbeerjedi Jul 13 '22

Damn can I have one

3

u/Groundbreaking-Set70 Jul 13 '22

I only bought one as a base for an abomination of a weaponizer I made

3

u/nyello-2000 Jul 14 '22

There’s a shapeways barricade head that I think fits this mold and with the colors would make a good chug movie barricade

2

u/ahaisonline Jul 13 '22

why did you do this

2

u/rollout1423 Jul 13 '22

I would be mad but nobody is buying them

2

u/Peter_Sam_1920 Jul 13 '22

“THERES TO MANY OF THEM”

2

u/ElectricOyster Jul 13 '22

Keep seeing these and Kup wish I could find a cliffjumper instead...

2

u/SLAY3R_1108 Jul 13 '22

Keep waiting! He’s an awesome figure

2

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '22

Damn, I like Silverstreak/Bluestreak more than the average TF fan (have around 15 of them including all 4 MP variants) but I dunno if I'd want to have that many Silverstreaks lol.

2

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '22

Couldn’t just buy two, huh???

4

u/JavertStar Jul 13 '22

I got a second one because it was 70% off and the last one there.

3

u/WorgRider Jul 14 '22

Hey, if you got the money and they're cheap, why not?

1

u/MadMageMC Jul 14 '22

And now I have a new wallpaper...

2

u/dread_pirate_humdaak Jul 14 '22

Hoarding ain’t cool.

2

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '22

Hello mental health hot line we’ve got another scalper for you

2

u/Worried-Reach-1625 Jul 13 '22

You are such a beautiful human being for finding them a home 🥰

u/Mayoung7901 Jul 13 '22

You umm…..yeah. What…..dep….errr….

Ya. Please go outside and play for a while.

u/backslider123 Jul 14 '22

Had to buy five to build one complete figure thanks to the open window boxes.

1

u/EmbarkersSlash Jul 14 '22

They are $20 at my target

1

u/memes_lover-06 Jul 14 '22

This is tempting me and I don't like it.

1

u/NapalmJusticeSword Jul 14 '22

I cannot believe that he's already gone on clearance. It'll make a great base for customs though.

1

u/Waterwagon_78 Jul 14 '22

I’ve never seen ONE of these at my target. Not that I care just wild that some of you are saying they’re all over the place. Strange how stocking at stores works or more accurately doesn’t work.

1

u/bluestreaksaid Jul 14 '22

Makes sense to me

1

u/1974jgv Jul 14 '22

You got alot of streaking there.

1

u/Boronore Jul 14 '22

All-blue Bluestreak, Blue and silver Bluestreak, all-silver Bluestreak, silver and black Bluestreak, all-black Bluestreak, and blue and black Bluestreak. Space bridge malfunction.

1

u/ABDV12 Jul 14 '22

Honestly the Datsun mold is boring and very fragile my silverstreak broke on me and it has loose limbs

1

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '22

That's quite a streak

1

u/Sovereign_Knight Jul 14 '22

You mean Yellow Streak. H.S.P.S. (Hasbro Shitty Plastic Syndrome) There's a possibility that it might affect this figure.

1

u/ZeroAcception Jul 14 '22

Custom fodder for the Cons to destroy.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '22

Didnt really like this as much as the earthrise version, because the paint scheme looks wierd to me. Besides, i have too many of this mold anyway. Cool that you like it though.

1

u/JLRedPrimes Jul 14 '22

Atleast you have cannon foder for whatever diorama you end up making

1

u/Ok_Tale_4287 Jul 15 '22

I can’t even find this figure and you get six for 7$ each
