Seibertron.com member Hyper-Chicken has posted that he was able to purchase TF Movie figure Deep Space Starscream from a local Target in Sacramento, CA.This figure isn't due to hit the shelves of Target stores nationwide until the end of June. Deep Space Starscream was available through Target.com but the listing is said to be no longer available. Click here to see what Hyper-Chicken had to say.

Also, Seibertron.com member Real One has reported seeing Transformers Animated figures at Walmart in Nevada, and he's got the pics to prove it! This means that this is the first report of seeing TF: Animated figures at retail outside of the Ohio state area in the United States. Check this out here.

*UPDATE!*

Within the same thread about the TF:A sighting in Sacremento, CA are more sightings and images of TF:A figure purchases. Seibertron.com member Hurrikane informed us of another find in Indiana! Check out his proof here and here. Seibertron.com member ponycorn purchased his TF:A findings at a Wal-Mart in San Jose, CA. See these here and here. Seibertron.com member dabattousai found his figs at a Wal-Mart Supercenter in Mesa, AZ. See his findings here.

I've resorted to buying Animated from Ebay. Got Lockdown and Activators Bumblebee today with Grimlock, Lugnut and Leader Megatron still on their way.

HUGE update to this one today guys.

Animated figures are starting to pop up here and there now. Keep your eyes peeled for the new figs.

Just got back from my local Wal-Mart. No figures there. I'll keep my eyes open elsewhere, though.

Anybody know if Leader Bulkhead is in the first wave released or if he is in a later one yet?

U.K. fans, make sure to tune into Animated every day at 6:30pm this week to watch brand new episodes aired before Canada and YouTube gets them!

OOOOOO!!! TFA FIGS HERE I COME!!!

VOYAGER Bulkhead is in the first wave of figures. LEADER Bulkhead is in a later wave. The first wave does not have any Leader Class figures in it.

No leaders? That's pretty lousy. Guess I'll be holding out for Prime, Megs, and pretty much everybody else. Seriously, we all know that the cooler versions (Bulkhead, Prowl) come out at a later date, it's like the first wave is just a warm up for what's to come. Oh well, Hasbro's loss, really.

So I live in Nevada, so when I read this I was pretty happy!!! It was almost 9:00, but I went to the Wal-mart anyway. I got everything they had. That’s the 2 pack Prime and meg’s, Voy Starscream, Voy Grimlock, Voy Megatron, Voy Lugnut, Del Prime, Bumblebee, Lockdown, Ratchet, Prowl, and Blackarachnia. Again, I’m VERY happy. :)
Sabrblade said,  - 2008-06-03 10:16:57
Well, TPR, the first ones to be released will be:

Deluxes: BB, Prowl, Lockdown, and Cyb. Mode Prime
Voyagers: Cyb. Mode Megs, Screamer, Bulkhead, (and maybe Earth Mode Prime, not sure on that one yet)
The Battle Begins: Optimus Prime vs. Megatron

I think the leaders will be in the second or third wave of figs. But Leader Bulkhead and Megs will come first, then Mgns will be later.
